strated her knowledge of the manly art
of self.defense. 1t tappears that two rows
Of seats in one of the gentlemen's gale

towards them, when she was stopped by

those seats were reserved for ladies.
"Well, ! am a lady, said DIR. Mary.

the door-keeper. Il shall have to ex

He didn't finish the sentence, for Mary
struck straight out from the shoulder
like priae.Aghter, and planted a blow
on the doorkeeper's potato trap. He
didn't like that sort of argument at all

though he warned the belligerent doctor
not to strike him again.
"Then get out Of my way" exclaimed
Walker, brandishing her arms about

The Aim Of Advertising.

1t is the remark of a very eminent
Bostonian that he regarded an advertise
ment in a paper as personal invitation
extended to him to call, and lie added
"While | sometimes hesitate about Gu
teriug store, the proprietors Of which
have not thus sent their card to my resi-
denoe, | always feel certain Of cordial
welcome from the members Of au adver-
tising firm. There is in this remark an
assurance of one of the many results of
advertising. The trader and his calling
becomes identified, and the name Of a
man is iuseparable connected in the
mind Of the public with his merchandise.
1t may not be the very dag an advertise
ments appears that it bears its fruit I;
weeks or months may elapse, and when
the want arises the article to be obtained
immediatly suggests the advertiser.
This is the effect OF general advertising
when persistently followed. A special
class of advertising, where some novelty
is announced, is more immediate, a
shfewd business man once advertised
trifling article in manner which wo1ld
scarce prove renunerative. His neigh
bors expressed their regret at his folly,
but he appeared cootensed Though
his gross sales of .ha article did not Gov
er the cost Of his dvertisjhg, he attract
cd new class OF people to his store;
aud his shrewdnesO paid him in very
short time, for new eyes saw what he
hao to offer 10 addition to the speciality
advertised, and fresh purses came under
contribution to him.
The object which all aim to accom-
plish in advertising is an increase Of
business. The nimbie shillings is what
We require iu this age. 1t costs very
little morein the way of expense to carry
on business OF two thousand dollars
than it requires to do half the amount
The cost of rent, personal living, and
many Incidental expenses, do lot in
crease in the ratio of business, while
time is saved; for there is greater profit
resulting from a trade Of two hundred
thousand 10 one year than from the same
amount, and even more, extended over
twice the space Of time. These simple
facts are well known by energetic busi-
ness men, who adopt advertising as the
most powerful method of saving time,
by increase business, aud thus making
capital doubly active. Iudeed, it is ott-
en- made substitute for actual capital

POLITICAL MoRALiTY,-It is quite
refreshing to note the comments OF the
opposition press on the result Of the
Credit Mobller Investigation. To read
some OF these journals, one would think
that they were the exponents Of party
that never sinned; that held iu its keep
ing all the public and private virtue in
tho land. Democratic editors who new
er had q word to say against the sin OF
the rebellion; who defended Tweed and
his brother thieves as high-toned gentle
men and model public Seryents; who
have grown rich by using thier columns
10 advocate and justify the schemes of u
corrupt lobby, suddenly assume an air OF
sanity innocence, and proceed to lecture
The nati9n on the sins and shortcomings
Of toe Republican party.
The spectacle is novel one, and we
trust these sel!-appointed guardians Of
public purity viii keep at thier work
and give thier hard-shell readers a daily
lecture % tn: beauty and necessity Of
PQ..-ie.. honesty. 1t will do good 10
both writer a1d reader. The Democratic
editor may muse in his own system a
little genuine honesty by continually ex-
ercisng his brain over honest sintiments.
Ills subscribers, who take their iutellec-
tual food at his table, may think the
conversation genuine, and be thus led TO
honest reformation themselves.
So keep up your show Of yirtuous in
dignatiQn, gentlemen you can do no
harm to The Republican party, but may
succeed IN penetrating the sin-toughened
hide of Democracy with feeling Of re-
morse that will awaken some Of its lead
ers to make efforts to save themselves, if
not the party they adhere to. If this
Credit Mobiier business leads our Dem
ocriaic neighbors to closer intimacy
with their long neglected bibles, aud
reminds them to look over afew chaphters
on honesty 10 kOnw what it really means,
aud how TO write ON the subject, we may
reasonably expect, as the logical result,
a geuerabie breaking up of the Demo =
cratic party during the next four years,
Ii the Republican party by investigating
the shortcomimg of few of its members,
can start the Democratic party in pur-
suit after honesty, why should not the
world rejoice p!

Now is the Time to Reduce Taxa
ton,

From a careful examination of the
finances of this State 1t is evident that
the time has fully arrived when the
taxes of the people and also of some cor
porations can be reduced without en-
barrassing the financial operations of
the State.
The State has already acted on the
bill to repeal taxes upon cattle, horses,
mules, occupations, trades and profess
sions. This is right and proper, since
it relieves. principally, the poorer classes
of our people, but to this bill should be
added section repeating the taxes on
net earnings. These taxes have always
been burdensome, and are really the
most unjust imposed on the people.
The capital employed in manufacturing
establishments is taxed, and then comes
again tax on the earnings this very
capital produces all money invested in
manufacturing is, therefore, taxed twice,
if not three times, This ought not to
be-. @
These taxes abolished, the State can
still, without Inconvenience, reduce GER
tain taxes on corporations. The fnan-
cial officers of the State can easily point
out the taxes that can best be spared
from the revenues, r
During the past year the State Treas
ursr reduced the debt s1 ,97G 1876 This
is entirly too much of a reduction. Our
debt to-day, after deducting the bonds
of the different railroad companies in the
sinking fund, is about twenty millions Of
dollars; and if we pay one million of
this debt annually it will relieve the
State from debt entirely within twenty
years. This is relieipg it fast enough,
and We hope, therefore, that the present
Legislature will not adjourn until it re-
duces the income of the State Treasury
at least one million of dollars, which are
now raised by taxation.
Sipce the above was in type an amend
ment has been introduced to the bill be-
fore the Senate, looking to the desired
reduction'-[ Harrisburg Telegraph.

OUR INDUSTRIAL lNTEREsTS.-Some
idea Of the magnificent proportions which
the manufacturing interests of the
country are beginning to assume, may
derived fIom a study of the data furnish
ed by the last cersus. In the several
States and Territories there were then
252,14S establishments for manufactUr-
ing purposes, using 10000 stationary
engines, and employing 2,053,O98 per-
sons in the several branches of industry
represented. The capita! invested ives
set down at S2,l16,247 ,000, and the
amouat of wages paid during the ye ar
ending June lst 1870, vas S4,232,
625,S02. Since that date the number
of these establishments and the extent
of their operations have very greatly in.
creased. And such is the condition of
our surrounding civilization and such
its present and prospective demands,
that the furture promise Of our industria
Developments bids fair to outrun the
most sauguine estimates. The wants Of
society increase iuproportion to the in
creased capacity for pOrduction, and
the 6eld for the latter in this country is
practically unlimited.

There is a document on exhibition in
the Office Of the 6ocretary of the State
of Illinois, which is of some historical
interest. 1t dates from Black Hawk
war in 1882 and is an order from the
Brigade Inspector to supply Captain
Abram Lincoln's company" with thirty
guns. A receipt for the arms is append
ed, signed by Abram Lincoln. The
question therefore arises, "Was Lin
coins name originally Abram or Abra-
ham? Or was it Abram at first, and
Abraham afterward?"
