He is like David in the cave'of Adullum when

discpntichted! gathered themselves' dntc1 him,
and heljjtcartno a^jitain over them;'' .(,
The be/hocrat is. .the organ./# Jlajor Wcnjt^-
worth and his followers. The editor of one
of our country papers inquired jof Wfnt-
worth T< cently, why he did not give more at-
tention to his paper, and elevate it to a high-
er position. The rfcply Was 1 substantially
this : "If the Democrat suits' Lohg John,
and answers his purpose, I (ion't know why
other people should trouble themsejves about
it." And it is certain, that as long as th$
proprietor makes it his organ, it wjll have a
prfetty extensive circulation. .; : s	v.

■The Evening Journal was the organ ofthe
old Whig party, and .when under the. man-
agement of-Dick "Wilson, it wosani able -po-
litical sheet of that school! • Since the organ-
ization <rf the Republican party, its present
editor an«jl proprietor, Charlie Wilson, has
manifested a commendable ztal for the suc-
cess/of the.party, for which he has Ws reward
in his tticent mppoititment. Its editorials ate
/ihoft and to the point, but hoi tntidh labttr^d.

"WjiJtt';;ican we. write ' about I the state
of the j country? Every onej is frantic
with anxiety, nnd the question, "What: will
be done," passes from lip to. lip ^ thousand
times a day'. We do not wish to fill our col
umns with the sensation rumors which float
around.among the dailies.	j

/ Ail that is really known, is thsit the Gov
ernment is putting fortfi i its energies with
mnrvelous activity in preparati n^ for either
war or peace^ Bqt whether this ib' to check-
mate England nnd .Franco; or to yij.-ttch Spain
in her attenipts on Daminica; or io support
Houston, in Texas ;J Or t!o re-eniforcc forts
Sumpter and Pickens—no one[ outride ;cjf
goverrbent circles cftn tell. We must all
"pofisess our souls in( patience". i few days
longer. Meanwhile Ifct us all prajy fervently
for. !	for .civil war is art evil. tlu> mas:-

that the "bbys"' would not bo pacified until
it w.as repeated. Its mixing up patriotism
with a negro mejpdy, entitles it to the name
of The Yankee Marseillex:--
t The recitat ion of "The Hermit," by Master
.John Spillard, al.^o greatly delighted iho au.
dience on t-hch evening. But why,should ipe
Specify further? What can wc say more,
than as a whole, and in all its parts, it, excel-
led • what rihc .expected, even from , the Hey-

HIGH SCHOOL EXHIBITION. !

Two weeks sines we' alliidaJ to ihs sulTer-
ing vv-c had endured !from,lectures,< concerts
shows, etc., from strolinc exhibitors who
wish, to travel at the expense of the, public.
We then proposed toi turn to the, entertain-
ment being provided by our q,wn institfrtions
for real gratification.; Ljist week we gave
an account of the offers of jthe Academy 16
instruct and amu^e those who. favored them
with their company, i . j < |'	.

■ It remainsjnow toi speak;"briefly-of the ex-
hibitions given on; Tuesday anil Tursday
evenings of Jlast week, by the pupils of the
Elgin High School.| On Tuesday evening
Davidson's illall was jiuU to|oveij|lofwing, and
a large number weAt aw"a|y without beirig.
able to get. in. On S Thursday 'evening the,
Hall was ! full, but mot so inconveniently
crowded.^ j i ' ('I 1 r'| ' j,
' : We do but echo the c6mmon sentiment of
all present when we de.clare that' the High.
School on this occasion excelled,jitselfi Its
reputation was h;igh before, ;it is higher now.
The ntusic, both vop^l and instrument., was
of a superior order; The speaking was high-
ly creditable, in <*hitjh Master Cyrus Barker
bore the palm; but the reading—\t was the
reading ;^hich epccjlled, wc were about to say,
anything we ever heard. The present gener-
ation of.public men are-miserable .poor read-
ers. Not one in teii of us can read credita-
bly, but this glaring'jlefect will ijpt appiearin
our successors. Wb must think the • first/
premium should be awarded to thej girl who
read the piece entitled "The Boyi and the An-
gel," although "Thi^ Building of: the Ship"
would-coinpete.stnjrigly for the; prize, and,
"The Unforgoiten Foe," some think, was
not inferior to either;, while! others give the
preference to "The ^Tay Queen." ,.j
j The elegance a«d exquisife taste displayed
in arranging the drapery ofthe young misses
in the tableaux, and in some of tlie 'collo-
quies, was surpassingly fines. Not to speci-
fy others, the tableau "Lalla Rookh" was
equal to anything,we ever isaw j in Chicago,
where tableaux have been qiuite jthe rage .fo;
some time past, "Gifts of the Fairy Queen"
exhibited th| beauty, elegance and gorgeous-
ness of oriental scenery. . j .;

But the gem of the evening, the crown of
the entire exhibition] was the Recitation en-
titled "Mission of ttye Spirits." The benefi-
cent spirits of nature Vere represented ..in
the following order I

Spirit <^f Light, j
" the Woo^s,
" " Waters,
•" Flowers^ j
"Song, : j'
" Music,: jVl';:,

The beautiful costume of each lady corres-
ponded to the "spirit" I she personated, and
the mission of each ^'spirit" was set' forth in
an original essay, composed^ and recited by
the lady personating it. The whole thing, in
design and execution, would do credit to any
institution, in the land.	! >

The admirable drill of the school was seen
in the fact t^t there was no prompting of
any pf tho pupila througb |he entire per*
formatted '^The books were all left in the
school room, and the pupilff understood that
they were to rely wholly, oil themselvei.—

BENEFITS i OF ADVERTISING.

A fact has just;come under our notice il-
lustrating the benefits of advertising.. A fciw
weeks since, Mr. Frank Gilbert-inserted a no-
tice in this paper that the paper mill at Clin-
ton. was for sale cr r,ent. We accompanied
the notice with an account of the property-
Almost immediately he began to receive,let-
ters jof inquiry upon the subject, a'nd He is
nowjconcluding an arrangement with a party
from Milwaukee, who takes the property for
five years on -satisfactory terms. . ■ f

ly—to this we sliall alHide ''again. ^

"At tlie same time he gave notice ithat -Fie
wits agent for the sale.of farms in this vicini-
ty. Upon this subject, also, he has received
responses—one from a gentleman in I^ew

York city.:

■ Now, some persons, who don't understand
tho ways of the world, are ready to ask h<j>w
did people in Milwaukee, New York,

come to see' the Elgin Gazette ? The. answer
is this: We send one copy of-vthis paper j|o
Milwaukee in exchange with the leading pa-
paper in that city. /Some gentleman Who
wishes to get into business, goes into! that
office and looks over his exchanges, to see
what is offered here and there.

Again, we send our paper to the great ad-
vertising officesi in the Eastern citties. ItJ(is
there put on file with hundreds of. others,
and is examined by men wishing to buy ,or
sell; and thus becomes a means of exchange.
Will wise men take the hint! .

The Gift Enterprise pf ll[is p'ublishei', has
grown to be one of the institutijjips <j>f the
land. SVhen it was started it was supposed
to be a cheat, like a thousand, other catch-
penny concerns; butEvarts has lived down
all suspicion and become type of the leading
booksellers and pubfisberjs of ttic county.
How he h|is done it appesirs in ' the prcface
to his catalogue, from which wc take the fol-
lowing extracts :	. |v.j; ■A ,||v/;"|i//
In 1854, I commencerl this business—
which, indeed I have created—and bringing^
industry, punctuality, andlprobity fo aid me
soon'had a number of iniitators. Whenever
an employment is worthy jof being imitated,
there is good reason t? .beflievje that /jit has
obtained a certain degree; df success.. I felt
that .the world was large jenough'for all of us,
and that the ultimate and permanent success
must be his who. would devo'te himself most
earnestly to merit it.

Since I commenced Jpsijiess, 1 have sold
;over $2j000;000 of An^rican: and. English',;
books, and distributed; it least half ,that
amount in gifts.: The j pjurchaser ordering
anyijjbook whatsoever, no matter, where or
by whom published, is supplied with it at
tfie ordinary retail price-^also receiving a
gift,' varying in value of .ioursey but oyer and
above the.book itself at the- usual jselling
price. Many purchasers, I idare say; think
more of the prize than jof the bork ; bnt I
know also tbat^books refceiyed. thus ! sire! not
thrown aside. In each family will be; found
one reader, or more ;. and thus is kYiowlcdge
spread, and a taste for intellectual enjoyment
fostered and extended/• ; //. ;'. /-/- ;

• The success which:has rewarded me, and
which .will iadtrce mo to continm; /in the
straight course which I have trod from the
first, has been mainly owing, l am proud to
acknowledge, to the pti\)lic belief that; I deal
with fairness and liberality. 11. is. not prac-
ticable to command success—but every fair
dealer may deserve it.' Upon this principle I
have heretofore proceeded, and upon it I
mean to continue.- .! X ''j

offuture favors—I- conclude" wit,h assuring
my friends and' the public that I am their
faithful servant. • t V . V "

LAW.

It,seems our new: IT. S. Mirsha! considers
it his main bilsines to dog the steps of the
wretched fugitives from tlie yjlest op.
pression the sun ever shone upon, and
drag them back to. their bondage. . We are
willing, barely willing, that the' atrocious
features: of that law should be executed, when
the necessity cannot be honorably avoided,
but we expect the rriinisters of the law to do
;t in the same manner th ey distrain' for debt,
or attend a miserable culprit on'the scaffold
iarid fasten-the Beatli knot. fhese fugitives
are guilty of no crime, and 'the man who
shows alacrity, in hunting them jap .and fast-
ening the manacles upon them is a' brute,
and not fit to hold an office undfef Mr. Lin-
colni It , is a curious . fact that Marshal
Hoy'ne, a Southern man, under a pro slavery
.administration, allowed some hundreds of
these poor wretches to remain j in. Chicago,
and now this infamous' official of an anti-
slavery President, signalizes his advent into
office by seizing a family in thej most brutal
manner and hustling them off to a slave pen
in the South ; and by His. threats ibanishmg
hundreds of the peaceable citizens of Chica-
go from their homes. All this will avail the
slaveholders nothing." Now that tho dispo-
sition is- kijiownj fugitives Will tie taken care
of. It is<orily a kjuestion of whjer^ they shall'
live—whether in. Chicago or Chjaiiam, Cana-
da West;. Wej hope petitions will be circu-

MISS DRESSER.

The following from the Aqrora Beacon,
shows that Yankee Smith in showing of his
"prodigy," meets with but little better sue1
cess in other places than here. '

We do not approve -of rowdyisni at any
time, but we think there is no more con-
temptible imposition practiced upon the
American public, khan, this attempt to palm
off Miss Dresser as a lecturer, and Mrs. Smith
as a singer. The whole thing is a deception
and a cheat. We do hot believe Mil's Dress-
er wrote [the lectures she repots, and we
know their concerts are a humbug. I f '

At'the Concert'on Tuesday evening by
Matti, most ungentlemanly behayior. waff- in-
dulged inby many present, insulting to both
singers and audience.

We have .received a; communication from
"Matti," otherwise "Miss Dresser" complain-
ing bitterly of her treatment, andj particular-
ly severe upon the conduct of the Marshal.

The communication is too long for publi-
cation,, and came ^too late,—besides being
rather personal. Neither • havje we heard the
"other side" of the question. ^ :

Orie thing we can say,-from our own ob-
servation, tne Marshal fell short of doing hid
duty as an officer for the preservation of or-,
der. It is no excuse that the performers
paid no litfense^or they were not thought of
