stein, butcher living on the Leesburg turn
bike, short distance from this city, left his
home on Wednesday evening last, ana has not

the market was left full of meat, and it IS i'm
possible to account for his prolonged absence.
As may readily be imagined his wife and
friends arc very anxious about h i'm.

Paris is virtually in state of siege, and it
is said to be conceded that if, after being at
tackled, it holds out week, that the issue of
the campaign will be decided. The besiegers
need not calculate, it is added upon diver
sion in their favor among the faubourgs, as the
summary vengeance of the people would now
be inflicted upon any one convicted of treason.
The city is declared to have an effective force,
provisions in abundance, and that "the enemy
can be held in check for some time"
Dispatches from Paris, via London, report
the armies of King William and Steinmetz as
too severely crippled to resume the offensive,
and it is added that Bazaine has been rein-
forced from Chalons in order to give battle
again near Metz. He is confident of victory,
when he will attack the Crown Prince and re-.
lieve Paris. 1t is added that the appalling
Prussian losses have thrilled Germany with
horror, and that now Bazaine processes to be
master of the situation.
The Crown Prince is reported to have with
drawn from his march on Paris to support the
Prussiau armies at Metz, which are threatened
with formidable attacks from Marshal Bazaine.
In Asace and Lorraine it is said that the ex-
orbitant demands of the Prussians have so ex-
asperated the people that they have inaugu-
rated guerilla warfare upon the invaders.

calism.- General John c. Bro,Un's KnorUille
Speech.
The position of General Brown is the true
one. 1t is wise as we'll as patriotic. Tennes-
see Radicaism is the present objective point
which we aim at Let that be destroyed, or
at least driven from the ADMINISTRATION of the
State The national alliances can be made
hereafter. If an Old Line Wing call himself
a Conservative let it be done if an Old Line
Democrat sticks to his own name, let it be
done; but let Tennessee Radicalism be the
enemy of both This is not little, dirty
scramble for official place, or to obtain control
of patronage for corrupt uses, but to redeem
.the State and lift it to the high road of pros
internal peace.-Mempdis AUazaacde.

ADVERTISING AGENoIEs.-Among the
new businesses which have sprung into exis-
tence during the past ten years, and which go
far to show the progressive spirit of the age,
is that of advertising agencies. While many
of them have proved themselves anything but
beneficial to the publishers of newspapers,
there are honorable exceptions, and among
them we take pleasure in putting first on the
list the firm of GRIFFIN & HOFFMAN, Of
Baltimore. These gentlemen have not only
proved themselves valuable adjuncts to the
newspapers throughout the country, by their
strict integrity and attention to business, but
great help to the mercantile community of
Baltimore in introducing them to the people of
the South through perfect system Of ad-
vertising in reliable papers in this section
The houses in Baltimore which have pursued
a liberal system of advertising have been hand
somely rewarded. The Baltimore Gazette, in
an article on the subject of advertising, pays
deserved compliment to Messrs. Griffin &
Hoffman. Its remarks on the benefits to be
derived by the merchants of Baltimore from
liberal system of advertising are admirably
adapted to every mercantile community.
