ADVERTISING.
j The New York Tribune, in a labored
article on a reform in trade, gives the'fol
owing hints, in regard to the tern of ad
vertising: . We have remarked that extensive ad
vertising is one of the means by which the
reform in trade is to be accomplished.
The two classes, buyers and sellers, have
a common interest in finding each other;"
that is to say, it is for the interest of him
who can supply a certain want cheapest;
to have every buyer aware of the fact;
and it is fca the interest of the buyer no
less. An expenditure of fifty thousand
dollars may not be too much, one of five
thousand may be too little for that purpose.
If, for example, somebody has discovered
as we see it stated in a Southern paper,
ai substance, or chemical j compound
which will dispense with the labor now
required in washing clothes, or the half of
it, at a very small cost, the owner of this
patent may spend fifty thousand dollars a
year in advertising it, and then not spend

Thus ttrminated the conference, iwith

the enterprise. Connect, (says the wri

est, with almost any article which will
meet a general want hitherto more expen
sively met, cannot advertise too much if
he knows how to advertise at all. And
yet many a dealer in our city pays a
thousand dollars more for an eligibly lo
cated store than he need pay in a less
frequented street, and does not pay a hun
dred dollars a year for advertising 1 He
willingly pays a thousand dollars, merely
to let some ten thousand people know

grudges five hundred dollars to give the

In reference to this subject the Boston
Times says: :
"If you want to obtain a situation; if
you want to obtain help; if you want to

you want to get business, and make mon

. Will the buisness men of Wilmington
iake the hint ? Many of them have alrea

larger number who have not yet become
reconciled to the advantages derived from
advertising. Now is the time to com

The General was accompanied by Dr.

PRESIDENT TAYLOR.
The following passage we extract from a
speech 'of Josiali Quincy, Jr., at the late Whig
Convention of Massachusetts. We regret,
with the distinguished speaker, that it was not
in the power of President Taylor to have min
Sled in person with the intelligent yeomanry of
the Bay State. He is a roan of the fashion
and 'he temper to have won among lhem an in
stant, an electric popularity, that would have
thrilled through their ranks from the Capes to
Berkshire, and expelled all the lingering doubts
and prejudices that have been so assiduously
disseminated in a section where his rare vir
tues and noble qualities might well look for
the most genial sysmpathy and the most just
appreciation. If the people of Massachusetts
could see General Taylor as Mr. Quincy saw
him; converse with him; know, by personal
experience, his gentleness, his kindness, his
unassuming spirit, his modesty, his good sense,
his good judgement there would not be op
position enough left in the State to make a show
of hands necessary to indicate the state of opin
ion. He would carry everv thinif bv acclama-
lion. Republic,
" It was my good fortune (said Mr. Quincy)
to be at Washington for three or four weeks,"
about the beginning of last March, and it was
my exceeding good fortune to be under the roof
with one who was at least called General Tay
lor. Sir, I cannot help regretting that his
health prevented his having an opportunity of
showing himself to the yeomanry and citizens
of Massachusetts. I rpgret that they could not
sec President Taylor as he appears to all about
him.
" We are very apt, gentlemen, to judge by
what we have seen of -the militia. I remem
ber, sir, that I was onco aid lo bis excellency
Governor Lincoln, and we thought then that
the military had more fuss than feathers, I be
lieve.
" As regards General Taylor, he is exactly
what his soldiers' call him Hough and Ready.
He looks no more like one ot those officers
whom you will see, on an inspection day, rid.
ing about on horseback, with long plumes, than
he does like a Methodist minister. I confess.
sir, I could not help looking at him with aston

his parlor, a quiet modest-looking man ; and I
could not help thinking to myself, is that the
fellow that sat sideways on Old Whitey at the
battle of Buena Vista T
" We are apt to look upon the title Rough
and Ready' as one which was got up for the
occasion. We are apt to imagine that a com
mittee has been appointed lo draught resolu
tions, and to present to the public such a name
as will be taking. But that is not the case
with a name like this. The highest glory of
ancient knighthood was when the soldier was
knighted by his sovereign on the field of bat
tle. The highest title of a military man in a
republic is when bis soldiers give a name that
shall signify at once their confidence in bim
and their appreciation of bis modesty.
" He is called Rough and Ready' because
in every rough situation he was ready; be
cause he was found sleeping side by side with
the common soldiery, with a tent or without a

the battle, marked only by his venerable and
his simple appearance.

declaration throughout? Does it mean
to take no account of any thing good that
the Administration may do ? Is it pent
only on putting it down, let its acts be

the country be what Actfmay ? Then we.'
say, if this be so, never did any party in.
this country undertake a task so Hercu
lean, so little likrlyjo result in any bene
fit to the country, so certain to crush! all
those who are engaged in it. The people
may be deceived for a while. They may
mistake loud professions for real zeal in
their cause. They may be led to tnink
that he who talks the most of his country'
is the readiest to sacrifice himself upon
her altar. But in the cndr they always
see things exactly as they are, and never
fail to make the proper distinction! be
tween faction and patriotism. 1
It is very apparent that nothing which
Gen. Taylor can do, will ever satisfyl the
party, which banded together for the bur
pose of securing the spoils, knows no oth
er motive. He cannot rebuke the inso
lence of a Foreign Minister, an insolence
which if it had been submiltted to, would
have called down the unqualified denun
ciation of the whole Locofoco press, with
out hearing a hue and cry such as the Very
press of the country which the Minister
represents, would not have raised. Ho
cannot latte steps 10 carry into etiecc one
of the plainest provisions' of the law, that
wntcn pronipits me maKing war upon a
friendly power, without receiving the un
qualified censure of these pretendeUj dis
ciples of Jefferson of the man, who upon
a mere suspicion that Aaron liurr intend
ed to invade the territory of a friendly
power, ordered his arrest, and had) bun
tried for his life. He cannot take steps to
prevent a ship of war from being trans
ferred to a despot, to be used against (a
feeble nation, with whom we have al
ways preserved the most friendly relations
without exciting a howl of rage from one
end of the Continent to the other, through
all the Democratic press. What will sat
isfy such people? Nothing! Nothing 1
but a return to power, and the re-possession
of the spoils. " If the Arch Angej Ga
briel were President, he would notj suit
them, unless they were allowed the privi
lege of handling these, j
If such be the disposition of the press,
what are we to expect from a Congress
composed of a majority of loco-foe os ?-
Nothing of course but faction unadul
terated, unqualified faction. Itis some&at
isfaction to know, that the intelligence of
the people will soon sift the chaff from the
wheat will soon distinguish the truepat

to faction precisely the reward to which
it is entitled, in the strictest spirit of im
partial justice, j
In the mean time upon the loco foco
majority, will devolve the responsibility
of defeating or sustaining the Wilmot
Proviso, as applied to California ; and as
there cannot be a doubt, judging.fromlthe
Oregon case, of the manner in which this
will be done, we congratulate the people
of Maryland and North Carolina upon the
vast wisdom by which their course in 'the

THE INFAMOUS SHEET.
Just about this time, the New Yprk
Herald is a specialfavorite with the Lo
cofoco prints. Whenever their own in
ventive faculties are at fault to concoct a
charge against the Administration of pe
culiar baseness, they have resort to that
kindred reservoir of all filth. " See," they
exclaim, "what a Taylor paper says.
Here is one of your own organs, which
charges that M. Poussin was dismissed
because the Cabinet would not associate
with Madame P. It also charges that
Mr. Clayton created the difficulty, to eha?
ble bis friends to make money by specu
lating in shocks. Of course, it must j bo
true. A Taylor paper says so." . j
It is such witnesses as this, that the Lo
enfocos now bring forward to sustain their
libels against the Administration an au
thority deemed infamous by all men, even
in New York. j . T
The fact is, that the Administration has
never taken the slightest notice of this
vile sheet, since its accession to power.
It has never given it an advertisement,
nor condescended in any wise to acknow
ledge its existence much less recognise
it as worthy of the least consideration' of
any honest or decent man. -
