ACHuNEI or TRUrH.-A Western

and truthful remarks:
'The publisher of a newspaper has
one thing to sell ard one thing 10

the other? He can do il if he chooses

fact, furnish a great deal of space

that he ought to he expected to do it.
1t ought to be recognized as contri-
button exactly rs would be the giving
away of sugar or coffee by the grocery
man. But strange to say it is not
looked upon in that light by all, yet
every one knows that the existence of
a paper depends as much on the rent
of its space and sale of the paper as
does the merchants success depend
on selling his goods instead of giving
them away"

A BIBEE M1sPRINT. 1t is popularity
supposed, remarks a correspondent
of the London Daily Ne9os, that the
authorized version of the Bible, as
we have it to-day, is entirely free from
printers errors, and it may be inter
esting to good many of our readers
to learn that it contains anything of
the kind. The following passage,
however, speaks for itself and the
misprint contained in it will be read
lily noticed: ''Woe to the idol shep-
nerd that leaveth the flock! The
sword shall be upon his arm, and
upon his right eye; his arm shall be
clean dried up and his right eye
shall be utterly darkened. =" Czech
ariah, chap. XII, v. 17.) Curiously
enough, this error has been allowed
to remain uncorrected by the Univer-
stiles Press for nearly fifty years, and
possibly for a much longer period !;
at any rate, it will be found in the
editions of the Bible for 1889 and
1883, 1885 being the date of publ
cation of the revised version. 1t was
of course, discovered by the Revis-
ing Company, and it would seem as
if they wished to cousign the fault to
oblivion, as they substituted new
adjective (worthIess) for that mis-
printedvnamely, tidle," avoiding,
moreover, any reference, marginal
or otherwise, to the alteration made.

The Port Republic correspondent

The Port Republic correspondent
of the Rockingham Register says:
Report says we are to have a new
town two miles above here at ''The
Grottoes, so called from the Wey-
ers and Fountain Caves. Your cor
respondent has heen investigating
the report, and finds enough truth in
it to communicate it as an item of
news. The company owning the
Cave property are interested in the
Abbott Iron Company purchase (maG e
q couple weeks ago). They have
this week secured an option on nun :
Der of farms adjacent, and propose
to boom the new town. Already the
hotel at the Grottoes has been COM
pleted. electric lights and all mod
ern improvements introduced, an
avenue from The hotel To the river has
been laid off, Il bridge thrown across
the river for foot passengers, and the
caves furnished with electric lights.
DR.. Henry G[ohler has been secured
as manager of the hotel and Mr.. Lee
MohleF superintendent of the caves.
A number OF capitalists visited the
place this week, and although they
tried to keep their object secret,
enough has leaked out to justify the
above report.

The RoUss LEADER.-The leader in
the February Auction Trade Jour
nal of Mr.. C, b. Rouss will be found
on our first page: 1t starts off with
the talismanic words "Twenty-fve
per cent. cash before delivery. -
These words, says the Winchester
Times, have been a boon to many a
poor broken, bankrupted merchant in
our broad land, the adoption of which
to their resuscitated business has set
them once more to their feet and
caused them to sing p@ons to their
benefactOr as they are travelling on to
wealth and prosperity. No one can
read these monthly productions with
out being struck with the fact that in
each one life history has been writ
ten for the merchant of to-day. These
leaders should be bound in volumes
and distributed to every merchant in
the land for their commercial guild
ance. By following the tersely laid
down business principles found with
in their lids none could go astray and
be numbered with the thousands that
have been wrecked beyond redemp-
ton on the quicksands of the old
credit system. These volumes would
be vade necum for every well or
dered establishment doing business
on the grand Rouss idea of G. B. D.
The Rouss idea is bound to prevail if
success in the mercantile world is to
be realized, and the sooner it is adop-
ted by every one the better it will be
for their bank accounts.

The New PRESIDENT OF THE STAUx-
TON CHAMBER OF CoMMERcE.-The
Stanton indicator says: Mr.. Chas.
E. Haines, the new President of the
Chamber of Commerce is native of
Winchester and in the prime of life,
being about 45 years of age, and has
resided in this city since 1865. He
is leading cigar manufacturer and
his brands are known everywhere.-
He has been an Interested member of
the Chamber of Commerce since it's
organization, and his valuable practi-
cal suggestions have been of much
value to it. He is q gentleman of
cnergY-that sort of energy in public
affairs that takes hold of the rope with
both hands, and pulls. A few years
ago he initiated the Trade Display,
which was made a success in such
brief notice, and in starting the Fur
niture Factory Company he made a
personal canvass for it. He is one
of our most highly esteemed citizens,
and if the members of the Chamber
of Commerce will second him in his
efforts, his election will mark new
era of activity in the history.
