The peculiar interests of thf.t town, county and their manufactories are advocated through a paper in a rival town which will have ten times the favorable influence that the same articles would published in a paper at home. Suppose for instance tliat one of the Cincinnati papers, was to devote constantly to the

interests of Louisville, a portion of its ceive prenmuns

columns, it is easy to see that i t would do ten times as much good abroad, as one of their own papers. It is a general remark that the American the last summer done more for Connersville, than a paper printed there could do in ten years. We hope then, while our paper is aiding them, they will also aid the American.

Ientitry. We call attention to the advertisement of our townsman, Dr. J. W. Keely, Dentist. His reputation as a good artist is pretty well established. The full set of teeth which he made for Mrs. McCarly, and which were exhibited at our late fair, and secured the premium, are enough of themselves to establish his character as a good Dentist. He is here with us, and intends remaining here; and he intends doing his work so that he will not be ashamed to face it in nfter years. And what is the use of a lady or gentleman endeavoring to look pretty, fine, or fashionable, no matter how much they pay the tailor, miliner, or mantiiamaker.

Severe Accident. Major R. Slater, an excellent young man, who has been in our employ for several years, as a printer, was severely wounded on Sunday evening. Passing Williams barber-shop, oh 3d street, in this city, about nine o'clock, his attention was attracted by uproar and noise within the house. Stepping to the door, which was partly open and surrounded by a crowd of men and boys, he enquired what was going on, when he was told to "hold on and see," at the same time a gun was fired, the contents of which entered his thigh, making a terrible llesh wound. It afterwards appeared that a negro wench, an abandoned and notorious wo,T.an, a sister of Williams', had fired the run. Young Slater was taken to his boarding-house, a surgeon called, who

extracted forty-one small shot, and the
