THE ROTHERHAM MURDER. John fly. Wood, of Whiaton, charged with having wilfully murdered John Coe, of Brinsworth, on the 18th inst., was on Saturday placed in the company of twelve other individuals in the Rotherham police cells, and out of this number the cabman had little or no difficulty in recognising the prisoner as the person he spoke of when he first called the attention of the police to what he had seen on the night of the murder. The search for the watch worn by Coe prior to his decease has not, no far, been attended with successful results. On the day after the murder Wood gave it to Robert Poynter, a farm labourer, cf Royds moor, and when the latter learnt that the watch had belonged to Coe, he speedily returned it to Wood. The watch has not been seen since, and the police are anxious to gain possession of it. On being brought before the Mayor (All. Harrison) last Saturday the prisoner did not seem very discomposed. Ile was wearing an old blue overcoat, and his appearance was not by far as smart as when be attended the inquest at the Rotherham Workhouse. Still his face had not a very pinched look, aa II he had long been without food. Mr. Parker Rhodes, who has been instrneted to prosecute, said • In this case, your Worship, lam instructed to prosecute, and all I intend to do to-day is to ask you to formally remand John Henry Wood, Gre”es, who is charged with the murder of John Coe, until Thursday next.

A WORD TO  the philoeo  • ophy of advertising there can be no question: that is to say, supposing it is done in a judicious man nor. It ought to be remembered that there is but one way of obtaining business—Publicity; one way of obtaining publicity—ddeertirestcstr. As the Newspaper is the flywheel by which the motive power of commercial enterprise is sustained, it is iacambent upon Advertisers, if they wish to achieve success, to publicly announce their want. and wares, There are thousands of families, in every country, who see no otherjournal than their local newspaper, which is to them an oracle and guide; they know of nothing, and hear of nothing, beyond what is contained in its columns, therefore the great majority of Newspaper readers in the count', can indeed only be approached by advertiser, through the medium of their own, local journal.
