 |. R. Britain.
 MT. j. R Britain, the new pro. prietor of the Racket Store, arrived in the city last week and took pos session of his new property. Mr. Britain comes from Van Burcn, Ark, where he has been conducting d Racket Store with much success for several years, and comes highly recommended. as we have observed, by the press of his former. .ome. He has also moved his Racket Store stock from Van Buren to this city and consolidated the same with his new Pinc Bluff purchase.
 We have seen copies of Van Buren papers which speak highly and com- plimentary of MT. Britain, both as gentleman and a business man. and while they regret his depart ure, they nevertheless, heartily commend him to the good people of Pine Bluff.
 We observe that MT. Britain is q liberal advertiser, and he informed "a GRAPHIC reporter yesterday that he expected, within short time, to spread some rare bargains before the general public of Pine Blnff through the columns of the GRAPHIC. lie also requested the GRAPHIC to state in advance that whatever he might say through our advertising columns could be absolutely relied on by the public, and that he does not expect 10 advertise anything except that which he carries in stock He impressed upon the re- porter the correct idea Of adverts- ing; that is, that an advertisement must adhere strictly to the truth. This is the correct idea Of advcrtis- ing, and orly by this means can it be made a)success. for an advertiser who publishes falseboods in his space can no more build up | pros porous trade than the Cheap Jonn who ''deeces : q customer on the groands that he will never get hold of him agaip
 We gladly welcome Mr- Britain to Pine Bluff and wish him a pros porous business
