TIE Presidents private secretary, Mr.,
Brown, appears to have left considerable
of wake behind him in London. His
secret mission, which could not even be
cabled, lest sea monsters at the bottom of
the Atlantic might take it OF from the

found its way into the papers in London,
became the subject of inquiry in the
House of Commons on Wednesday. The
House was gravely informed that Mr..
Bulls government had no information
relative to the mission to Ireland of q
private secretary of President Garfield in
connection with Nihilistic performances
of lrish-Americans in England, Our own
opinion is that Mr.. Brown, while in Lon

Business Is RuSineSs!

The LEDGER makes it a point to
always pa:ronize those that patronize
it. We always find it to be a pleas
ure to remember our friends; but we
want it understood that the LEDGER
is not a charity paper. If a man pays
Sl.5O for the LEDGER, he gets the
worth of his money if he don't think
so, he should stop it. If a man don't
think it pays to advertise in the
LEDGER, we don't wish him to
Civ. US anything. We want every
man to get his moneys worth, and
then no one will feel under any obi
cations. Some newspaper men, we
learn. make a business of calling a.
a store and saying, "Well, l should
have bought 500 worth of goods of
you, but you advertised in Bob
Whites paper" &c, &c. Talk is
cheap. Our business men understand
all such talk for what it is worth
No nan feels more grateful for favors
than we do, ami no mar tries harder
To reciprocate favors than we do. AT
the same time, We want a man to take
the paper he thinks is the best, and
to advertise where 1t will do the most
good. A paper that is forced upon
the people as a charity institution
should 90 the poor house.
