advertised successfully, it is merely a question of money to get the
Editor to allude to them in the body of the paper. Not as done at the
bottom of columns with the word "advt." joined on, as some papers
print such in England, but in the editorial articles, and as if the
notice was put in by the Editor himself, struck with the superiority
of what is recommended! Here are one or two examples. These were in
the body of the paper, among items of news, &c.
REMOVED.--Gallup, the florist so long at 370
Curtis street, can be found hereafter at 321
Sixteenth street, still with Tunnel & Co. A
competent lady floral worker has charge and all
orders will receive prompt attention. An
abundance of fine flowers always on hand.

examples however.
ABDUCTION AND ATTEMPTED MURDER:
THE PUEBLO SENSATION.
SILVERTON TREATED TO SOME HARMLESS
REVOLVER PRACTICE.
Here, in England, expressions are occasionally made use of in the
House which would be better omitted, but the perpetrating delinquent
is quickly called to order. Not so in the States. It is difficult to
say from the following political leader, if, at the scene described,
the combatants came to blows or not, but as it is stated the
