“ I have always considered advertising, liberally
S >nd long, to be the great medium of success in
I business, and prelude to wealth. And I have
made it an invariable rule, too, to advertise in the
dullest times, long experience having taught me
that money’ thus spent is well laid out; as by’
beeping my business continually before the pub
lic. it has secured me many sales that I would
otherwise have lost.”

The “ working ” of the Morrill tariff bill,
which goes in force on the first of April, may
be anticipated from the following extract from
The New York World :
“ Wc have received information from
sources deserving the fullest reliance, that
there are persons doing business in tbis .city
who are making extensive arrangements to
cheat the Federal Government out of its rev
enues on foreigu goods by importing them
into Savannah, under the low rates of the
free list of the present or the prospective
tariff of the Southern Confederacy, and
smuggling them North, coastwise and over
land. to compete with the goods of honest
merchants here, under the higher rates of
the new tariff, which goes into operation on
the 1st of April. There have been rumors
of this 6ort floating about among our im
porters and merchants for several weeks,
but wc speak not upon rumor, but upon
distinct knowledge.”
