TO THE PATRONS OF TIE VIRGINIA
ARGUS

4, At very great eNpcnce, the proprietor, has
htely procured entire new fonts ofrYpE for this
paper, and INCREASED the size of it considerably.
1t is believed that it now contains quantity of
matter nearly equal to any paper printed in a.
rnerica. The price (the same as in the year
1898, when it commenced) is 90 per cent lower
than the other papers of this city. Notwith-
standing this, however, and the encressed price
of types, paper, &c. which cannot be obtained
but for cash, the subscription wiz not be raised
to punctuai subscribers. But in justice to him.
self the printer gives this early notice to his pa
irons, that from and after the first day of the
year 1912, the paper viii be charged at the
rate of FIVE DOLLARS per annum to all those
who do not pay their subscriptions in the course
OF the current year.-The opportunities BY pri-
vate conveyances continually occurring thrc'-
out the year from every part of the State to
Richmond, particularly by the Members of the
Legislature aud the Sherifis) and the facility
afforded by the mails which pass through every
ncighbourhood at least once a fortnight, will
leave those disposed 10 make rcmittances, no
excuse for not doing so.-No subscription will
hereafter be taken for less than six months,
nor will the paper be discontinued till all ar
rearages are paid.
