asking what to do in case their reservoir
bursts. Whilst not wishing to appear
surly, we must say we have none to give.
If the reservoir goes, the town goes; for

The Country Press.

Advertisers of experience state that,
to the best of their belief, it pays large
dealers better to advertise steadily in
country papers first. Local advertising
gives an article or firm local indorse-
ment, for people read and believe their
own papers, and trade thus works from
the outskirts to the center. People
thousands of miles away from the adver-
tiser, see his notice, and are led to in
quire, of their own merchants for the
commodity thus announced, and inquiry
is the straight precursor to introduction.
Of course, when a name is once made, a
person, or house, can advertise as they
like without going auliss. The conclu-
sions to be drawn from this point would
seem to be: First, begin advertising
with the country press and work towards
the cities taking care to cover the
ground as you go thoroughly; and, Sec
ondly, avoid "fits and starts" Steadi-
ness and perseverance always win, even
if they go SO far as to develop into some
thing like obstinacy The plodding tor
toise of the fable overhauled the nimble
hare, and so you, by tenaciously adher-
ing TO your advertisement, no matter
how small it is, may perhaps, in the end,
show in advance of him who fills a
column with his announcements at a
single splurge, and is not heard of again
for twelvemonth. This at least is the
gratuitous testimony of men who say
that they would have done better had
they known as much themselves in the
eginning.-Nes0spdpe Reporter.

The Cincinnati Commercial has an earn
est appeal to all Congressman who have
made fools or rogues of themselves dur
ing the late session, to 'fess up, like
Topsey. The Commercial intimates
that they would improve their prospects
by confessing their imbecilities, and
would feel better themselves by making
an investigating report on their own
cases, with no whitewash in it.
Now, how would it do for all independ-
ent newspapers which have made foels
or rogues of themselves, to 'fess up also 2

General Butler and his Enemies.


Fhereis something in the course pur-
sued ! bys a<portion of the Republican
press and a large number of his col
leagues in Congress, towards General
Butler, that we can find no justification
for inrhis official or public life. 1t is
easy enough understood why political
opponeE Is should both fear and hate
him, for he gave them good cause for it
during the rebellion, as. he has since
They never can forget or forgive the
wholesome discipline he taught them IN
Baltimore, New Orleans and elsewhere,
during the war for the Union. But Tor
this very reason he should escape the vi
tuperations of his political associates and
of Republicsn papers, if through envy or
credulity as to the wicked charges OF his
rebel enemies, they cannot give him the
honor justly his due.
ThSugh the object of more bitter abuse
from members of his own party than any
Republican living, not excepting Presl-
dent Grant himself, they have never yet
been able to fasten upon him one dis
honest action in all his official life, or
one acteofsbad faith, either to the Repub-
lican Organization or the true principles
of Republicanism. And in point of abil-
ity he has no peer, even in the House of
Representatives, much less any superior,
lance with him have done SO to their
modification.
He has shown his superior talents and
familiarity with public questions in eve
ry encountef he has had with those am
bitiods of trying conclusions with him /;
but in no case did he achieve more
signal triumph over them, than in the
debate on moieties, the Sanborn con-
tracts, ETC.. a day or two before the close
of the session. He proved himself far
more than match for the whole Com
mittee of Ways and Means, and exhibit
ed their course in light far from adyan-
tageous to the interests of the country or
the : Republican party. or creditable to
the intelligence Of the committed. But
Mr.. Butler seems entirely capable of pro-
tecting his own good name, in spite OF
the abuse of almost the entire press oi
the country, and we will therefore leave
him to deal with his enemies as he
deems bests-N Nei0i National Era. q

Coffee as a Disinfectant,

Roasted coffee, says tte Homoonathie
World, is one of tbIe most powerful
means, not only OF -.endering animal and
VegetaOie emuV'.a innocuous. but of act.
ualy ua destrov ing them. In proof of this,
sne state nent is made that a room, in
Tnlcp meat in an advanced degree of
Wv composition had been kept for some
time, was instantly deprived of all smell
on an open coffee-roaster being carried
through it. containing one pound of
newly roasted coffee; and in another
room, the effluvium occasioned by the
cleaning out of a cesspool, so that sui
phureted hydrogen and AMMONIA could
be clearly detected, was entirely re-
moved on the employment of three
ounces of freshly burnt coffee Refrig-
orators sometimes get musty from flesh,
fowl, or fish, kept too long in them No
remedy for purifying such receptacles, SO
simple as burnt coffee, can be employed.
