..HoH do They all Live?r

In the UNION AND AMERICAN of yes
terday we published an extract from the
Charleston Courier, giving the experience
Of the editor Of that paper, elected by fire.
quent visits to New York city, upon the
mooted question GLOW do they all live?'
The conclusion arrived al by this close OBJ
server of passing events is that thousands
living in that city beyond the sphere OF
social power and the ordinary levers which
move the social circle, attain success among
a myriad of competitors simply "by adver-
tising." We extract to-day another portion
of the COmier's article written by the edition
from New York standpoint, containing as
it does his argument in favor of the opinion
arrived at regarding the benefits of adver-
Using. He says:
The importance which is attached TO jul
diciOus posting as a means Of advertising
is best illustrated by the fact that when the
lower portion of the City Hall Park, oppo-
site the Aston House, was inclosed, before
beginning work on the new postoffice, an
enterprising party purchased the privilege of
using the fence for advertising purposes.
For this right fifteen thousand dollars per
annum was paid. Sub-rights were imme-
diately sold by the day and week at enOr-
nous prices, and at least two hundred and
fifty thousand dollars have thus since been
made. Bonner, when he has a new story
in the Ledger, has been known to pay for
a few feet square five hundred dollars
day. One ambitious person, anxious to
fill the public eye, paid two thousand dol
lars for space less than fifty feet in length,
and for but two days use. The fence is
now mass of pictures and type, and every
body who passes up or down on either side
of the Park sees varied map of busy adj
vertising life.
These, however, are but the OutpOstS of
the grander army of advertisers, who do
their light and heavy skirmishing and form
their line of battle in the columns of the
press. There the art of making fame and
money has been reduced m automatically to
a science. Well known and trustworthy
business establishments like those of Rowell
4 Co., Pettingill x Co. and others, are the
engineers of this species of warfare, and
they can tell to fraction what it will cost
to storm the breastwOrks and reach the cit
adel wherein is enShrined the prize that is
to be won. Visit any of these large firms
and you will be aStOniShed at the magni-
tIde of their business. They occupy spa
ciOus apartments in the most expensive por-
ton of New York, employ scores of clerks,
and receive tons upon tons of newspapers
every week. Their walls are like a hon
ey comb of pigeon holes, where each day
the journals of the several States, counties,
cities and towns are filed in alphabetical or
der. Each Of these has been examined,
each advertisement has been noted, checked,
and entered on the account of its owner,
and were he to drop in at any hour of the
day to know where and when his name and
business had been made public, he would

formation precise and in detail.

circumstance which happened on
North College street last Monday night es-
tabliShes the fact that NJ. Strohmeir and f
Hatfield, lately acting together as agents for
the collection of claims from the Govern
ment alleged to be due certain parties said
to have belonged, during the war, to Tinker
Dawes Scouts, are not now as friendly to-
ward each other as they used to be. Ac-
cOrding to Hatfield's statement of the Col
lege street affair, he was overtaken in that
locality Monday night by Strohmier and
another man, who, after drinking several
times at his expense, tried to force him to
divide his money with them. he refused the
polite invitation, whereat Strohmier and his
friend became offended, the former drawing a
pistol, and threatened to make things
happen if accounts were not right then
squared. On account of this little warlike
demonstration, Srohmier was arrested by
policeman Reid, and fined $50 by Recorder
Halle. He appealed from the finding of the
Recorder, giving as security on the appeal
bond the name of NJ. NJ. Brien, sen. This
is the present situation of the sanguinary
war between two Of Tinker Dawes roses.

Killed.

Peyton McClosky, colored, discharged
convict employed as section hand on the
Tennessee and Pacific Railroad, went to a
corn shocking, Saturday night, at fuckers
Gap, six miles this side of Lebanon, and
while there got drunk, and became involved
in difficulty with another negro, named
Giles Smith. During the fight, Smith was
thrown upon the ground, and received in
ternal injuries from McClosky, who stamped
and jumped upon him several times while
lying on the ground. Smith also was en-
ployed on the railroad, and though suffering
somewhat, returned to his work on Mon
day, but was advised by the foreman to
stop and go back to his quarters, where he
died on Monday night from the effects of
his injuries. McClosky, who had been en-
ployed on the road while a convict, had not
been arrested up to yesterday.
