II any one wishes to study for himself the
question whether the morning or the evening
paper is the better vehicle OF news let him
note what each has accomplished during this
centennial week. Take Monday, for instance.
1t was the evening paper which published the
first account of the departure of the Presidents
party from Washington. of their welcome at
the various towns along the route, of their ar
rival at New ork and Of the festivities in which
they participated there while daylight lasted.
It also gave brief synopsis, in advance,
OF the performances of the evening, which
needed only little filling in and change of
lenses to fit it for the columns of the next days
prints. Yesterdays evening press contained a
full story of the religious services, the public
speech-making aad the procession, leaving
only the less important banquet, at which the
orators were jaded with the days fatigues, to
be reaped by its morning contemporaries. As
We live now, the days doings are well over by
the hour the last type of an afternoon news
paper is lifted from the galley into the form;
and the citizen who employs his evening lei
sure in reading the quickly-prepared chronicle
has the edge so taken off his appetite that the
cold rehash offered him the next morning has
nothing in 1t seductive to his palate.

A house in the aristocratic neighborhood Of
the northwest, while very much more expensive
to occupy, cannot afford any more comfort or
happiness to its occupants than one Of the
same exterior and interior construction in some
other more democratic locality.
Likewise. a shoe made of same material, as
good a workmanship and by the same manufac-
turer is Of no more intrinsic value to the wear
er, whether it be purchased in some of the high
rent-paying stores, or of our house, which &C.
cupes less expensive premises. Yet there are
persons (and the number of these is daily de-
creasing) who will pay 81 for the identical
Gents shoe that We are selling at SIS,
or $3.50 for q Ladies' Boot when they
can procure fully as good a one from
US at 81, or 81 for Ladies'
Russet Goat Oxford that we only charge $3.50
for; or 81 for Misses and Boys Shoes when we
are selling, if anything, better one for $3.50.
We could continue these comparisons almost
indefinitely, but we refrain and simply say call
on US and let US show you that
COMPARISONS ARE PROFITABLE TO YOU"

THURSDAY. SEPTEMBER 10. 1850.

THE DEMOCRATIC papers all over
the country have for some time been
rejoicing ever an alleged disruption in
the Republican party, caused, so they
claimed, by dissatisfaction with the
distribution of the Federal offices. 1t
D ems, however, that they have been
mistaken, as the charges arc not sub.
s,antiated by the facts. The most per-
feet harmony existed in the Ohio Con
vention, and the same was the case at
the recent con-ention held IN Pennsyl.
vania. Yesterday, ut the Philadelphia
Convention, where, according TO the
Democrats, the party was to be split
into smithereens, the greatest harmony
prevailed. The truth Is. the Republi-
can party was never more united than
at present. The policy adopted by tho
Democrats during the last campaign
has solidihed 1t all over the countr'. q.
The Democrats OF this State, who are
depending on dissentions In the party,
which wi give them another OF their
accustomed walk-overs in 1890, will
realize something different after the
election. They will find that the
party is o ulIt, not only in Ohio and
Pennsylvania, but also in Delaware
and oil over the country. They will
find that Free Trade has been the
milestone that has dragged their party
down so deep that 1t will not rise
again in the next quarter OF century.

TINS IS fast age and the great de-
sire seems to be to anninilate time and

mense power that will draw trains at
the rate of mile a minute. Steam
ships have been constructed that will
cross the ocean in six days. and now
1t is said that two are about to be
built which will reduce the time be
tween this country and Europe TO
rinety-six hours. This seems scarcely
possible, but so much has been done
that few years ago was considered
impossible that II is best not to doubt
anything uhtil 1t has been demon.
ntrated by actual trial that it cannot be
accomplished. Among the posslbili
ties OF the future is IN electric rail

Postmaster General Wanamaker
has given the citizens of Luverne, Ala. !,
q severe rebuke, which will no doubt
teach them a useful lesson. Not long
ago colored man was appointed post
master at this place, and the only OBJ
lection to him was the fact that he
was colored. Straightway the white
people resolved TO revenge themselves
by burning the postofBce. This was
done, and now the administration has
come to the conclusion that the people
do not want postofiice, and have dis.
continued the office at that place.
Consequently the cilizens are Obliged
to go several miles Tor their mail II
the people of Luverne can stand this

by this time they are commencing TO
wish that they hsd left the poatoifice
