About PuiTs,

No greater mistake is made by peO-
pie who advertise than in the value
they set upon editorial puffs in the
newspapers. What we mean by that
is the style of articles found in the
local columns and "leaded" as editO-
rial matter, and generally descriptive
of somebody's cigars, candy, cock
tails or cabbages. Many people sup
pose these to be the most valuable
advertisements, when in fact they are
the very poorest. The public gener-
ally understand that these paragraphs
are paid for either in favors or cash,
and estimate them accordingly.
Some people ask the editor for puff
and encourage" him properly too,
more for the purpose OF reading his
extravagant language and witnessing
his ingenuity in the use of eXpletives
than for the profit they expect to
derive. Some are too indolent to
write their own advertisements. and
still others resort to a puff in order to
get a dead head notice. This is all
wrong. Puffs are the most worthless
of advertisements. Some men are
willing enough to pay for printing
ink but they imagine that palpable,
straight advertising is not the thing.
They want to get it done in the third
person or to have the endorsement of
the editorial tive" That business
man who soonest educates himself out
of this delusion will have the most
greenbacks. Abusiness mans adveI-
tisement in his own language, over
his own signature, and for which he
is plainly responsible, is in the nature
Of an official document and receives
more eOnsiderate attention than a
puff in the local column, and is both
more valuable and respectable. There
is an air about the responsible adver-
tisement, which says: 81 want to
trade and will give you a fair bar
gain" The puff insinuates that there
is no responsibility in the matter.
When we have occasion to advertise
our own business, we rarely make
editorial mention of it, but insert an
This view of the sub
ject is not inconsistent with the very
common practice of making editorial
mention of new advertisements, and
the largest papers cannot even do
that, nor of local mention of matters
that are constantly occurring in the
business community, by which any
mans business may be called into no
tice. One is a news item and the
other is an introduction as it were of
a new customer to the reading or busi
ness public.
To obtain the full value of printers
ink, advertise. Do it in your own
language, or if you cannot do that to
suit you, get some one better versed
in the matter to help you, or come to
the office with your ideas written
down and we will help put them in
shape. BY all means advertise. Change
often, and when your business admits
of it make different features of it
prominent in their turn; to-day one
thing, tomorrow or next week anOth-
er, and then something else. Let
your advertisements have something
of the dash in them, without great
exaggeratiOn. Hundreds of fortunes
have been made by advertising, and
yet as an art it is but imperfectly un-
derstOod. Exchange.

is, "The King and the Laws" The
coin is 77S years old-over seven and
a half eenturies-and ON the edge of
the rim can be distinctly seen "Glan-
morgan Half Penny" with represen-
tations of leaves intwining. The de-
nomination of the coin is imprinted
in dated letters and everything con-
nected with 1t shows it to be a coin of
the reign of the Emperor whose name
it bears. Further, in connection with
the unearthing of the stone giant, its
discovery in the loose dirt thrown up
from the bed of the excavation where
the statue was found and yet lies is
certainly quite interesting, and seems
to add to the general interest that at

TO BE EXHIBITED.


Mr.. Newell, on whose land the i'm
age was found, has sold threc-fourths
of his interest at the rate of $50, 900 for
the whole, and five other gentlemen
now own shares in it. As soon as the
exhibition of the giant ceases to pay
at home, it is the intention to take it
up and carry it on tour through the
country.
THE KIND OF MONEY THE GIANT
HAD.
The latest from the stone man shows
that his giantship was a man of means.
He laid down to rest (how many years
ago y with his pockets full of specie.
The Syracuse journal tells the Won
derful tale. Here it is:
On Saturday last, Matthew Hender-
son, of this city, while visiting the
Cardiff giant, picked up from the de-
bris thrown out of the excavation
something that seemed like black
ened scale of brass or a rusty old but
ton. Thinking that it might possibly
have some affinity to the wonderful
statue, the lad placed it in his pocket
and brought il home. DR.. Hender-
son, the lads father, applied some
acids to 1t, when an ancient coin, OF
nearly the eleventh century, revealed
itself.
On the diverse side of the coin is
the head of the Emperor Iestyn. Be
meath the Emperor is the date "l09l. I"
Around the edge of the coin is the fol-
lowing inscription "Iestyn-Ap-
Gwrgant, TywsOg-MOrganwg." The
Interpretation of this, as rendered by
n competent Welshman, means les
tyn, son of Gwrgant, Prince of CLAN
morgan" The inscription around
the circle is in the Welsh language,

The weekly Arizona miner., 1869-07-17

FROM AGUA CALIEETE.-Under date of Agua Caliente Ranch, Gila River, July lst. 1869, Col. K. s. Woolsey writes us that he had recently made trip to Arizona City and Fort Yuma, and that he found the ranchmen and station-keepers along the road suffering from the blues, in consequence of a rumor to the effect that no more Government freight would be sent that way; Government having made up it's mind, if it has mind, to supply posts in the Southern part of the Territory yia Sonora. Upon arriving at Yuma, the Col onel learned that the rumor was without foundation, as the contract was ordered to be re-let. Lieutenant McCleave, "the Prince of Indian fighters" had invited Col. Woolsey to accompany him on his late scout to the Hacquehila mountains, and, of course, the Colonel could not resist the temptation of doing so, his motto being, like that of "old Billy McCleaye," "Where there are hostile Indians there also would like to be. and take hand in convincing them of the error and irregularity of their ways" Later news informs us that McCleave and Woosey found the hostile Aowbres, and succeeded in recon structing eight of them. {. Our new Cover nor, A. P. K Stafford, passed the ranch, June 70, and made favorable impression there.
The weekly Arizona miner., 1869-07-17

YUMA CoUNrY TniNGs.-Our old friend W. c. Pondexter, of the rancho de Los Iu mas, on the Colorado river, was at Arizona City at the time Governor Sailord passed there, and thinks the Governor is the right man in the right place. The Governor in- formed him that General Ord promised to fur nish arms, ammunition and provisions to cit izens who wish to hunt up and kill Indians, but they must act in conjunction with the military. A better way we think, would be to allow bands of citizens thus furnished to act independently of the military, for, it is well known that frontiersmen do not like to be "cribbed, cabned and coniined' by mli- tary orders. General Ord, the Governor said means business, and as soon as the troops now on the way here, arrive, simultaneous attack is to be made on the savages, from all points. We hope so In fact, nothing would suit us better. But we have known many such "high and holy resolves to be made and never carried out.
 Mr. Pondexter confirms the news pub lished in the MINER of last week, about the shooting and killing of Major Wm Montgom- cry An old man named Udell, who had resided near Castle Dome, for several years past, has been missing since April goth, last' and it was feared that he had been foully dealt with Tho weather was very warm river falling; no overflow had occurred this year, and grass was very scarce, in conse- quence. Mir P. says our subscribers at Ari- zona City had not received their MINERS reg ularly. The fault is not ours. We forward our paper, regularly, to every subscriber in and out of the Territory, and if any fail to get it, the fault is with the officers of the PostofIice Department. We, ourself, have reason to growl at some person or persons connected with the Department, for neglect or carelessness, and shall do so if matters arc not speedily remedied
