We Internationally omitted to notice the en-
largement and Improvement lately made in
the Advertiser and Commercial Reporter, pub
liShed in this city, by iiss experienced and en-
terprising editor, Mr. NJ j. Hughes. As q
commercial reporter and literary sheet the Ad-
uertiser has few superiors. 1t is an exceeding
ly large sheet, eight pages and ffty-six columns.
Its financial and commercial reports are COM
plete and extensive and it contains vast
amotint of newsstand literary matter, and is de-
feidedly one.of the cheapest papers of its kind
published in the country and when we say so
we mean it is the cheapest for the subscription
price, for Mr.. Hughes doesn't publish a dollar
sheet. He has certainly displayed no little en-
ergy or business tact as al editor and publisher,
and has not confined himself or field of opera
ton strictly to this section.
We have just noticed the New York Adrcr-
tiscr and Commercial Reporter, published in
the city of New York, No. Is Spruce Street.
near Park Row., 1t is one of the largest of its
kind in that city, and is also edited and pub
lished by Mr. Hughes, who seems, determined to
establish medium for the entire South. He
certainly deserves much credit, and as jour-
nalist we are not disposed to detract from that
which is justly due him. ~ -

Sun stroke.

Sun stroke and stroke of lightning, says DR..
Hall, as far as present light extends, cause death
in Che same manner; the blood is expanded and
gases are liberated, both tending to distcnd the
veins which causes in the brain species of APP
oplexy; this distention of blood-vessels induces
pressure on the brain, and consequently all loss
of sense and feeling the muscles are paralyz ed,
all motion ceases, and the functions of the body
are all arrested,
Apply cold cloths or ice bags to the head, land
mustard plaster to the neck, with something to
act on the bowels as soon as possible But some
thing more speedy than this is an imperative
necessity in most cases. or death will ensue in a
few moments Skillful and eminent physicians
in this country, upon actual experiment, found
ed upon a true philosophy, have ascertained
that speedy recovery takes place within an hour
if the patient is bleo-fro both arms in the old
fashioned way From the largest sdistended
vein the blood may only flow by drops at the
first second or two but as it flows freer the re.
lief becomes almost miraculous and speedy and
