Some Things to Disbelieve.

When man advcrtises for partner and
wants young man to put in small invest
ment of one hundred or five hundred dollars
and promises to pay him realization of fifty
or one hundred per cent. profit, don't believe
it. When Il man offers to give away know.
ledge Of the utmost value for the cure of con-
cumptlon and any and all other diseases, by
merely sending three-cent postage stamp to
prepay postage, don't believe it. When man
proposes to make every one else rich, and looks
to other peoples interests more than to his own,
don't believe 1t. When a man offers to give
you something of great value for something of
less value-in other words, give something for
nothing, don't bclieveit. Many persons advcr,
tlse on purpose to fitch young men of money
gained by hard labor and before entering into
any speculation which may be offered to you,
take advantage of the many means at your
command and ascertain the facts with reference
to the proposed business before you invest
and thus save your money and assist IN effect

While Peter Minton, William Beames, S.
Reynolds, and J. Manuel we're prospecting
near the site Of the ancient grlst mill they
found u quantity of petriticd locusts and an
ancient cluster Of diamonds. There were nine
diamonds originally in the group, but one is
now missing. The value of the diamonds
or diamond stones is not as yet ascertalned,
The material IN which these rude stones are
set appears to have been made of metallic ore
and they have either drilted to this quarter OF
the globe or have been carried nither and lost
These gentleman have placed their new discov.
cry on exhibition at the Reynolds House. A
reward ls offered by them of $500 to any per,
son who may find the missing stone. The petri.

The following legal decisions in relation to
the newspapers, from the highest authorities,
we wish every Postmaster and every subscrib-
cr to newspaper throu ghout the country
would take the trouble to read carefully;
A Postmaster Is required to give notice by
letter. (rcturning the paper does not answer
the law when a subscriber does not take his
paper from the office; and state the reason tor
Its not being taken, and a neglect to do so
makes the Postmaster responsible to the pub
Usher for the payment,
Any person who takes a paper regularly
from the post oitice-whether directed to his
name or anOther--or whether he has subsCrb-
ed or net, is responsible for the payment.
If a person orders his paper discontinued,
he must pay all arrearages, or the publisher
may continue to send 1t until payment Is made,
and collect the whole amount, whether 1t is
taken from the office or not.
If subscriber orders his paper to be stopp-
ed at a certain time. and the publisher contin.
ues 70 send it, the subscriber is bound to pay
for it if he takes it out of the post Office. The
law proceeds on the ground that man must

Take il as IA rule, the constant advertiser is
the one who does profitable business, and
not the one whe flashes his announcements
upon the public at irregular intervals. A
merchant starts business, puts up sign, AMI
keeps it there continually. He would be con.
sidered rdra ariS If he would pull down his
sign when business was dull, and put it up
again when business livened up. Still that is
the plan of some advertisers. They make a
good show tor a few times, hanging out nice
sigu telling people where to find them, and
what they have for sale, and when trade slack.
ems, they pull in their sign, and take nap un-
til better times awaken them. We think our
advertisers, those who wish to make the use of
printers ink pay them, would find it more
profitable to nave regular, yearly cards run.
ming, changing them frequently to prevent
them from getting stale, then make their spec.
ial announcements IN separate advertisements

THE SIMPLE TRUTH.

The sun comes up and the sun goes down,
And day and night are the same rs one.
The year grows green and the year grows brown
And what is is all when all is doney
Grains OF sombre or shining sand,
Gliding into and out of the hand:
The fisher drops his net in the stream,
And hundred streams are the same AS one,
And the maiden dreams her love lit dream,
And what Is IL all when all Is donc'
The net Of the fisher the burden breaks,
And the dreaming dreamer always wakes
boston advertiser.
To this Lampy would add two more verses:
The tide comes In and the tide goes out,
And IL hundred tides are the same as one
For who can say what I'm writing about
And what Is Il all when all Is done?
But dipping my p' n in the ink, and then;
Oh, nothing but taking it out again.
For people must read a great deal OF rot
land rubbish and rot are the same as oneG
They may as well read what write. Why NOT
But what is all when all is done!
Some lines Of type, and metre rough.
And not an idea in the whole Of the stuff
