C, THjQRSDllY MORNINGJUNE 9, 1870. A Secret. The secret of advertising is not yet discovered by . all j who advertise. A good deal of money and space is wasted in clumsy announcements which nobody reads, heavy standing placards, which no more stimulates purchasers i than the names on signs. Much money " is also" wasted in circulars, which are thrown into entries and down cellar ways, and always received with contempt, or in so-called advertising sheets which nobody reads. There is no medium which comes, into such close-; contact with the people aa the newspaper ; and if adver tisers only understood their business they could make their part of the paper as inter esting as any other part ot it In many ot the German papers advertising is carried to an extent of . which we : have no ideal The newspaper is the real exchange. Eve rybody goes to it with all his wants, and almost all his woes. Ma8onig Funeral. The burial of Mr. Byrd was honored by masonic ceremonies. Mr, Mabson delivered the following eulogy : The grave has dosed over the earthly re mains of one of our fraternity's most ardent advocates. The voice once so familiar in our lodge is hushed in death ;, its sounds no longer greet our cars, but its bold and fer vid enunciations will never be forgotten. Brother L;ewis Byrd has gone. He sleeps, the sleep, of death ; but his heroic devotion to the fraternity, we so often admired, and ' '. i - -- j ' which Is exemplified by countless acts, and incidents, extending through years and years of an active existence, can never be forgotten. The principles which he pro fessed, and the work which he performed, professions and practice1 being in perfect harmony, will in all future time rendei the name of Brother Lewis Byrd dear to us 11. The early history of Brother Byrd I n ;p,d not recite, leaving the city ' of Augusta, n the State of Georgia, at the early age of sixteen he came to our city ; where he has resided ever since, it was here that I first met him, it was here that I first learned his purity of character, his spotless integrity, and high sense of honor, it was here that we first knew tach other as Brothers ; those who knew him and were! associated with him in life, bear witness with me to hisre marka hie traits of chnmcicr,' al w ay s" gefilaT Kind, ana COrteOUS, nis tAi .U.y niral and always abounding, none came to him for a favor who did not get it it in his pow- cr to grant it, it seems that; nature had giv en him a generous heart ; he was in all his relations kindly, affectionate, tender : and winning. No man excelled him in devo tion to right, none" left his presence unim pressed by his active sympathies. Me thinks I see him "now as he fills his seat in the lodge, how well I picture: in my mind his countenance, seemingly anxious to carry uut. tuu uuju ui wui ".vcuug, w can Ijemember his pleasant salutations ; but alas, he is no more; a seat in our lodge is vacant, ana mucu more iuana ; suai, as it will be difficult to fill, but though our Brother is dead as he was,5 so he will be long remembered, a worthy example for all men. Our community one of its' best citizens has ; lost, ourlraternityone ot its most consistant y' ubers. .. . I;'' " ftict&e summons, ' came from the East, by Iwavl ?f the West, to' the South: and called our Brother up to' the grand lodge above, and while we sorrow at his loss it becomes us, to bow submissively to the Will of our Grand Master for He dbeth all things well. My heart sinks within me at the though t, that I shall no more hear his kindly salutation ; no more hear his well known voice; no more feel the warm pres sure of his hand ;l all this is gone forever ; but we have a consolation, we know that we will one day all meet in the grand lodge above where all good (Masons expect to dwell ; our Brother is dead. He r-as gone from this strange world of ours, No more to gather its thorns; wi,th its flowers, ' No more to linger where sunbeams must fade, Where on all beauty death's; fingers are laid, Weary with mingling life's bitter and sweet, Weary with parting and never to meet, Weary with sowing and never to reap, Wearv with labor and welcoming sleep. In Christ may he rest from sorrow and sin, Happy where conflicts enter not in. The regular meeting of the Board of Commissioners of Navigation and Pilotage was held at the City Halb yesterday.

' Mr. Eagles assured the country delegates that their ill-treatment found sympathy in his bosom, and that he would support them in calling a new convention.,.

Hcury wilso0. saia that he would not be caught with "ignorant niggers " and did not be- licve in uneducated ! men bcinn'. free. He dcclared that the convention was a fraud on Republicanism, and appealed from their decision to the people. He advocated a new convention, to be held at Lillington On or about the 13th of June. Mr. Eagles of fered 'the following resolution which was unanimously adopted : liesblced, That wc, Republican citizens of New Hanover county, do denounce the ac tions of the, lute so-called county nominat ing convention, and will not abide its de cision, i ; j. -j Resolved, That :wc call upon Republicans to assist us. Mr. Jos. 0. Hill denounced the clique Nyhich had controlled the wishes and will of the delegates composing the late imper fect convention. He was ready and anx ious to go into a hew convention, He de- nounced L. E. Ricc-as a disorganizer and dangerous character Rice had bought two delegates belonging o that convention, one for a barrel of flour and three hams, anoth- for seventeen pounds of coffee. He could not stand in political battle side by side with such dishonest creatures, and was willing to appeal from a purchased conven- tinn. He wanted a new convention com posed of honest men. He would never de sert "carpet uaggers" -with them he would sink or swim. Mr. W. H. Moore, declared that he was tired of drunkards and demagogues ruling this county.

He came fbrwardliot as a defeated candidats but a wounded Republican. He desired tion of the Junty Recalled, for an in-'-peace in his party, but could not sacrifice honor for peace. The fair name which the Republican; party bears in other States was becoming unknown to our Republicans. He despised cliques, brutes, and drunkards. Could never support Price for he was un worthy the confidence of sober men. He had been reported a weak Republican but his purse j had become i almost empty in pouring out gifts to his party. He could not stand by such paen as Rice, Price and Rourkt and the nominations which the late con yention had offered us were from them and not the people. Assured the: people that Hon. A. Et. ; Galloway was with us. He opposed candidates for Office coming into convention. M v . Mr. Arnold .sustained Mr. Howe's re marks, and declared bis intention to abid& the decision of a ncwconvention, composed of honest and: unpurchaseable men. He was a soldier Carpet-Bagger, and would never draw anyj distinction in the party. He knJw no mart by his color or nativity. ; He had no regard for Rice's political faith &c. The meeting then ! adjourned to meet Tuesday night at the! City Hall where G. L. Mabson, W. S. Winfield, Joseph C. Hill, G. M.LArnoldi jS. W; Eagles and S. V. Lar kins will address the meeting.

He begged that uo one would indulge in personalities - On motioifof Mr. Wm. "McLaurin, Sylves ter Capps w&s appointed Secretary. Mr. J. C. Hill was introduced and said : Mr. Chairman and Gentlemen : we have been imposed on by the action of the so called Convention. There were two dele- ates taken down on the whart and bought for one barrel of flour, three hams and twen ty' yards of; calico, j The Democratic press approved that Convention ticket ; but the Republicans can't see it. I ask if this meet- ing will -support that ticket ? Voices: No, no. I ask if G. P. Rourk was not nomina ted for Register of Deeds? Voices: he was. Well, what Uid he do ? Voice : sold out. ... Mr! Chairman, there is a gentleman, Mr. Joshua Russ, who Rice told that if he would work for the nomination of Owen Birney, road, and we regret that we cannot give he would give him as much work as he tuem more definite information on the sub could do for a year; but like a gentleman, . , . , . . , . . r nd . true hearted Republican, be refused than we are able to do at present. it.
