We have been assured on good authority
that the Supreme Court Of the State OF Geor'
gIa will set aside the action Of the Legislature
IN expelling the oolored members, as illegal
and void, and that they will be restored. This
will relieve the situation somewhat, and may

HOW TO ADVERTIsE.

One of the most potent auLiliariss TO
commerce is knowledge. Information
should not only be widely disseminated,
but it should be brought Co the every day
attention Of the world at large 1t has
become the custom with the American
people to depend largely upon their
daily paper as a guide in the various
transactions of the day. As fOrinstance
if small dealer, a mechanic, hotel
mem Der of the human family, require
an article out of the usual routine, the
first thing done is to consult the daily
paper. In its columns can be found the
time and place for the sale at auction Of
all articles of merchandise, real estate
stocks, 90, from a house and lot 20 q
spool ofdafnaged thread. The depart
ure of the cars, the business Of the
theatres and operas, the names and
locations of merchants, hotels, board
ing houses, etc; notices of meetings,
market quotations, and endless varieties
of busy life, are, pU blished from time to
time in the paper. The man who does
not advertise at all is generally apt 60
fall behind more eDterpising rivals
who do so, and he deserves to lose
caste.
Advertisements are a source Of profit
to the proprietor of a NEWSPAPER but
are or greater benefit to the advertiser.
Our merchants do not seem to under
stand this question so well as the sharp
energetic, go-a-head men Of New York,
Boston, Philadelphia, Cincinnati ChiCa-
go, and elsewhere. They do not, there
fore, make such progress on the road
10 wealth. Unless there is q general
waking up TO signs of the times before
long, we shall De at least half century
behind the age.

ST. ANTHONY FALLS.

RumOrs were plenty in the streets
yesterday that the dams at st. Anthony
had met with irreparable damage by
the great volume of water now flowing
over them. Our reports, made up by
special commissioners on the ground
to the latest moment, confirm but par
TALLY these stories. The action of the
water has undeniably caused damage
to the Water-Power Company's struc-
lures, but its extent cannot at present
be precisely estimated. Probably n
few thousand dollars, should no FUR
ther disaster occur, will cover the losses
thus far sustained.
The public apprehension, however,
will be but temporarily satisfied by
this assurance. The great capabilities
