THE PUBLIC PRINrER.-The editor of the Ad- yertiser announces, with ill-conceaed exultaton,

 that the Advertiser and Chronicle has been selected by the Secretary State, the Printer of the laws, &c. We can hardly tell whether he is most delight ed that this sop has fallen into his willing mouth, that it has fallen out of ours. We presume he joys double satisfaction. While we return to him most grateful acknowledgements for having re- trained from breaking this most painful news to us until recent democratic triumph had prepared our "poor nerves" for the shock, truth compels us to destroy his happy illusion of the chagrn that it would us, by declaring that were aware of his ap pontment and our bereavement " two months ago." although he denied ii at the time.

The stinging rebuke which the ''mercantile" men of his political fra ternity administered to him days ago. ought to have admonishcd him to hold his peace upon that subject

 While have lost, and he has gained all, the pub lie sop and pap which his party could take away from and bestow upon him, our private and per- sonal patronage has grown steadily under his amia- ble efforts to starve and principles out of his ambitious path. It will not gratify him, but it will our friends, (and among these reckon number of whgs) to learn that this establishment never upon sounder footing, in respect to stable private patronage, since the rcvusion of 36-37. than it is now. Our salary advertising list has doubled in a twcyemonth-our current business exhibits to us gratifying, to our neighbor galling improvement, and ofa large and respectable list of country and city subscribers, there are but few opposite to whose names may not be written the word "good" "So much for Buckingham"
