g, r r'HE Printer of the New-Jersey Gazette
has long experienced the perplexities and
losses attending outstanding accounts, and the want
of pundual payments. Although the price is now
as low as the expences of paper, wages, &c. will
admit, yet for the fake of avoiding these inconve
niencies, he would be willing to make an extraor
dinary abatement, were the price of a year paid by
advance within a reasonable time. He therefore
proposes to let the paper for a year at Ten Shil
lings, gold or silver, provided the fame be ad
vanced at any time within three months from the
25th of last month, when the year commenced, and
the whole of a packet be on that footing. He will
allo in this case take produce at the current market
rates If by any means whatever the paper should
be discontinued, the money or produce will be return
ed in due proportion. Those fubferibers for the
present year, who do not prefer these terms will be
considered under those mentioned in this Gazette
the 25th ult. No. 187.
The Printer earnestly requests the packet-mas
ters and others who are in arrear, to pay off their
refpe&ive balances immediately-
