continuous advertising. Doubtless largo
sums have l>ecn, arc, and will bo mode by
such a system by certain persons of ability,
who nodoubt would make their way in ihe
world if called upon to play different parts
on the great stage of life; but to suppose
that men in general must, as s matter of
course, acquire wealth by such means, is as
absurd as lo imagine that all the penniless
and shoeless of l,ondon are capable of rising
to the dignity and wenllh of an alderman 01
the lord mayor of l^tndon simply by reading
the "Young Man's Best Companion."
Money is not so easily made an the writer
of the article referred to would lead people
to suppose; if it be so, few need be poor.
But to our text: fortunes made by advertising.
Undoubtedly the greatest man of the day
as an advertiser is llolloway, who expends
the enormous sum of twenty thousand
pounds annually in advertis' moots alone; his
mure is not omv *o oe seen in nearly every
fmper and periodical published in the British
ales, but an if this country was too small
for this individual's exploits, he stretches
over the whole of India, having agents in all
the different parts of the upper, central, and
lower provinces of that immense country,
publishing his medicaments in the Hindoo,
Gordon, Gooiratee, and other native languages,
so that the Indian public can take the
rills and use hisOintmont according to general
directions, ass Cockney would do within
the sound of Bow Bells We find him again
nt Hong Kong and Canton, making his medicines
known to the Celestials by means of
a Chincae translation. We trace him from
tlicnce to the I'hillipinc Islands, where he is
circulating his preparations in the native languages.
At Singap re he has a large depot: his
agents there supply all the Islands in the. Indian
Seas. His adv rtisementa are published
in most of the papers at Sydney, Hobart
Town, Lmmcealon, Adelaide, l'ort I'hilip,
and indeed in almost every town of that vast
portion of the British empire. Returning
homewards, we find his Pilla and Ointment
selling nt Valparaiso, lama, Callao,and other
ports in the Pacific. Doubling the Horn,
we track him in the Atlantic?Monte Video,

Ill the Mediterranean wo find them selling

States. Any one taking the trouble to
look at the "Journal" nnd Courier" of Con
nt intinople, may find in these, ns well a*
other papers, that liollowtiy'n medicines are
regularly advertised and selling throughout
the Turkish empire; nnd even in Russia,
where nn almost insurmountable barrier exists,
the laws there prohibiting the entree of
patent medicines, ilollowny's ingenuity has
b?NMi st work, nnd obviates this difficulty hy
forwnrding supplies to his Agent nt Odessa,
s port situated on the Black Sea, where they
tilter themselves surreptitiously hy various
channels, into the very heart of the great
umpire.
Africa has not been forgotten by this indefatigable
man, who has an ngent on the
River Cambist also nt Sierra l?eone. the
plague spot of the world, the inhnbitantn
readily uvnil themselves of the Ointment and
l'iils, thus we can show our readers tint
llolloway has made the cot ipleto cir< uit of
110 globe, commencing with ludis, nnd ending,
as we do, with the Cape of Good Hope,
where his medicines are published in the
Dutch and ICnglish languages; nnd while
speaking of Dutch, wc h ivc hoard that he
has uiade Inrgo shipments to Holland, and
it about advertising in every piper or periodical
published in that Uiiigdsiu: we might
add that he has also started his mc-.iciuo in
some parts of Franco, in some portions ot
Germany; ns nlso in souic of the Italian
states.
NVu have been nt soinu little trouble to
collect nil these facts, beeausn we fear that
ths article before alluded to, * The Art of
making ? oaoy," is calculated to lead people
to spend their moms in the liopu (us the author
states) of making a hundred thousand
pounds in six years for their pnins, by holdlag
up ns nn easy example to follow such a
innn ns Ilolloway, who is really a Napoleon
In his wny. Many may have the means, hut
huvo they the knowledge, ability, energy,
judgment, nnd prudence necessary ? Failing
in any one of these requisites, a tottal loss is
certain.
Ilolloway is a man calculated to undertake
Riiy enterprise requiring immense energies
of body nud mind. Us has made n
large fortune by his labors; nnd is, we should
suppose, every day greatly increasing his
wealth. Of course it is not to our interest
to deter the publ'u from advertising; but,as
guard! ins of their interest, we think it our
incumbent duly to place a lighthouse upon
what we consider a dangerous shoal, which
may perhaps sooner or later prevent shipwreck
and ruin to the sanguine and inexperienced
about to navigate in such waters.

Absconded?Large Reward
We learn from Dr. Fishkr, of tbo firm of
Fishier, Answ, dcCo., of Columbia, that a
man named J as Phillips, abounded from
Winnsborough, S.C., on the 24th ult.wiih
al/out #20,000 of their mo..ey, in bills, it
is beieved of the Planters, Bank of Fairfield.
A reward of $5000 is otiferd for the
apprehension of tho delinquent and recovery
of the money, and a proj*ortion:ite reward
for the recovery of any portion of the
founds abstracted. Phillips is said to be
about TO years of age, five foot ten inches :
in bight, will proportioned, dark hair ami I
rather inclined to baldness, has a red face
and a flesh mark on one side of his neck,
approaching a claret color. Our contemporaries
generally will further the end* of jus
tice by inserting a notice of the above facts. ;
Banks, Brokers a others who inay have
negotiated recently any larg amount of the
bills in question with strangers, would
confer a favor by communicating tho par- 1
ticulars forthwith to Messrs, Fishkr. Ao j

CaslTv (Credit.
We are glad to see that some of our merchants,
are endeavoring to bring about a reformation
in business, by establishing a
"cash system," instead of the present injurious
one of "credit." Tho truth Is, tho
"credit system" is ruiningthc country; there
is no nsc in denying it. Men are disposed to
buy any and everything that is offered, from
the easy access lliey have in procuring what
they want on credit. They run in debt at '
every store, at every sale, tor this or for that, I
with the exclamation of "charge it," laboring 1
it seems under the delusive expectation that ;
credit itself will pay them out of debt. It i
has actually become so thnt men think of ;
paying deinnnds against them, by note or
due bill. Ask them for the money and they
nre astonished? never heard of such a thing. !
Now we propound tho query: of what use is
a slow note to a man of business, in fact of i
what use is it to nnv man? It won't pay a
delit in Charleston, Columbia, New York or i
Philadelphia, verilv. the L'oiioralitv of them
will not pay demands at home. One would
ns well, almost, have so much hi,ink p iper. |
There ire thousands of dollars really owing
in this community which it will require
years to enllect, and which to collect effect- j
nnllv will call into operation the "power of j
the I?n\v. The result will he broken up
m< rchants and farmers, all owing to the |
credit system. Men are every day eondem- '
ning it. and yet such is the power which it j
exerts that it will require unusual determina- '
tion and firmness to abolish it. There is no j
better time than now to commence. A rev- '
olution of m itters most sooner or later take !
place. Coming events e st their shadows
before them.
The whole country seems to be wild, in
offering extravagant prices for every tiling,
they buy?buy?buy?merely because it is
on credit, but the day of retribution will
come, snd the consequence will bo that not
only the buyer and seller, but the whole
community will feel its effects. Now, how
much better would he a cash system, when
everything purchased or sold would h * paid j
for. Kvery man then would he able to catculate
exactly how f.r he could go. There 1
would then be no accounts, nhtes and due I
bills, harrawdng a man's min 1 about their |
certainty or uncertainty. The cash in hand 1
Would enable a m hi to moot all detiiaii Is,
and to p iy his way as hu advanced. I*t the
community eschew the credit, and adopt the
cash system. It may for nwhite "annoy,"
but its tendency will bo to p oduco economy
cut tall extravagance and preserve ninny a
farmer, merchant and mechanic from ruin
and bankruptcy.?Newherry S ntinil.

A GOOD COMPARISON.
. mt The Rev. Win. Roulatt, it well-known
Methodist clergyman, residing at Naples, draws
the following amusing but apt comparison between
Dr. McLauc's celebrated Vermiluge and a
ferret:
" A ferret, when placed at the cntiancc of n
rat hole, enters the apei ture, travels along the
passage, seizes upon the mt, exterminates his existence,
and draws the animal's defunct carcass to
the light. And in like manner have I found Dr.
Mr I.ane's American Vermifuge to operate upon
worms, those dreadful und dangerous tormentors
of children. This remedy, like the ferret, enters
the aperture of the mouth, travels down the
gullet, hunts round the stomach, lays hold of the
worms, shakes the life out of the reptiles, sweeps
clean their den, and carries their carcasses clear
out of the system. This, at least, hus been the
effect of liie Vermifuge upon luy children."
A neighbor of Mr. Koulatt, Mr. J. Hriggs,
adopts the simile of the reverend certifier, thus
both giving their most unequivocal approval of
this great specific, after having witnessed its operation
upon their own children. Let others
try it, and be satisfied.
MT ru .-chasers will be careful to ask for Dr.
McLane's Celebrated Vermifuge, and
take none else. There are other Pills, purporting
to be Liver Pills, now before the public.?
Dr. M'Lane's Liver Pills, also bis Celebrated Vermifuge,
can now lie bad at all respectable Drug
Stores in the United States and Canada.
