The Art of Advertising.

The New York NeaOs discourses as fol.
lows about this, the best of business
stimulants:
Few intelligent men will dispute the
advantages of judicious advertising. =
Doubtless very much that is called ad-
vertising is not in the highest degree ju-
dicious. Some men send out the lame,
halt and blind to distribute circulars at
the street corners; some exhibit fantas-
tic signs, or deface the rocks, and some
content themselves with expensive exhi-
billions at fairs, or employ CONNIE rcial
travellers to make their wares known to
the public. But these devises reach no
more than q limited circle. and effect
this in a most expensive way. They
rank as step in advance of the huxter,
who hangs ont an onion, an apple, or a
mackerel on a string, to attract the no.
tice of those intent onfanily marketing;
but as means of reaching the great
public are totally inadequate. Those
who are recognized as advertisers, and
have made the art Of advertising study,
agree that newspapers circulating among.
the classes they wish to reach are the
most effective agencies of attaining the
end desired. And that the newspaper
advertising is a paying investment is
amply attested in the career of all who
have tried it most thoroughly. Ia the
language of the Journal of Commerce,
in recent article on the subject: "The
men who advertise are not the men who
are failing There is volume in this
assertion, and it is made by standard
authority in business affairs. 1t is con-
frmed by the experience of this journal,
whose losses from the failure OF its adj
vertising patrons have been 50 trifing
as to be unworthy of mention.

Continued from page 100.

the larger share of profit is obtained
from the pure breeds, either Asiatics,
Leghorn or any other. The Brahmas
need care in breeding, and the major
ity of the profit from them is the re.
suits of such skill. What is wanted
is not to obtain a fowl that eats the
least they must eat,) but the one that
will eat the most and return the
greatest amount of profit. Feed will
tell sooner or later; if not in eggs,
then in flesh. The writer has observed
that there is a greater difference in
the Asiatic breeds than any other, es..
pecially in laying some being nearly
equal to non-sitter, while others are
quite. worthless. They require much
wedding out and breeding up for egg
production, even among themselves.

Ground Pea. or Goober.

=
Permit me through the columns Of
your paper to give my experience with
this pea. It viii grow on pine land the
first year, producing from fifty to- one
hundred bushels per acre. Il is as good
= ascornfor tattening hogs, or other stock;
my mule eats them in preference to corn;
my hogs eat them best whom cooked,
eating bulls and all, which contain a
great deal of nourishment. They are
far better and richer for the table than
the cow-pea. One acre of these peas
Will give as much nourishment as one
acre of corn in the North. The cultiva-
ton is very simple, plant about the last
OF March or first of April, in rows two
feet apart, six to ten inches apart in the
rows. There is no necessity for hulling
them, as some of them are injured by SO
doing, and will not terminate. 1 use
the half sweep in cultivation, running
the bar next to them when we'll up. and
reversing it afterwards. Two or three
plowings are sufficient. They will be
ready to harvest by the first of October;
you can commence feeding them by the
first of August. Dry them before hons
ing, and they will keep indefinitely.
The weavel does not injure them.-JG.

Letter from Richmond.

| Correspondence Of the Alexandria Gazette.
| RICHMOND. Va, March Is.
After all, the labors OF the members OF the
| legislature on the debt question amount to
nothing. The Sepato refused to pass the
House compromise bill ito consolidate the debt
and pay uniform rate Of Interest upon the
whole" This was the bill that brought the
hostile factions 10 the House together, and 20
one thought that the Senate would fail to ac'
| quiescc in that bill. The finance committee OF
| the House also proposed to double the rate Of
tax upon incomes, but the members OF the
House could not sec the advisabillty Of such a
move and voted it down.
| No man has been SEN who regrets that the
| session will come to close tomorrow. "a the
| fourth OF March the money gave out, and since
| that time the iatercs. in legislation has de-
| creased. No man feels az interest 10 anything
that he gets no pay for.
1t was terrible. 4 barkeeper's opinion Of
the present legislature. The gentleman stood
behind his counter and proceeded to speak OF
could be done with them would be to put keg
of guu powder 10 the basement of the capitol
and shoot it off. Prelacipg his remarks with a
word that partook Of the nature of curse, be
said the present members came here to make
money. They don't buy any whiskey. Five of
them sleep 10 the same bed and divide bottle
Of whiskey between them. Get 36 dollars a
week and save 80 Of it. Draw mileage and
then 20 to the railroad apd get free passcs.-
That much money clear. Your correspondent
rebuked the gentleman as he began to advance
the proposition that the capitol doors ought to
be sealed up for five years, that that was not
the proper language to use 10 speaking of our
representatives.
It would seem that despite the rumors, the
Governor will not veto the salary bill.
A motion has been passed 10 the Senate to
reconsider the vote by which the compromise
bill was defeated, and that body may pass the
bill tomorrow. If they do not then the legis.
lature will be just where it started on the debt
question, and the State will be the looser by
over hundred and fifty thousand dollars by
their coming here.
Great interest is felt here in the forthcoming
decision of Judge Hughes in the Arlington
case. The decision covers over forty pages of
closely written legal cap.
Judge George L. Christian, the newly elect.
cd Judge of the Hastings Court of this city,
takes his seat as such Saturday next.
