NEWSPAPER BORROWERS.
From, the Yirginian.

Why are new spapers generally so
poorly patronised that their subscrip-
ton lists present 80 meagre, an aspect
II cannot be because the people are un-
able to defrsy the current subscriptions.
II would be q scandalous libel on the
country to mako such IN assertion, con-
tradicted a. il is, by the plainest evidence
OF our senses, and in the very teeth Of the
fact. II is, then, nothing more or less
than, FIRST, an unwillingness on the part of
men to pay their money for what they do
not consider an equivalent and, secondly,
a mean desire to keep the sum neces-
sary for this purpose, ard At the same
time enjoy the benefit Of peruslDg the
papers, by becoming burdensome to thor
more liberal neighbors. Talk to such
men OF the impropriety Of their conduct
and they will tell you that the papers
are not worth subscribing for in these
dull timcs-fh they take no interes, in poll
tical concerns, and care not for the string
OF murderers, robbeiies, counterfeitings,
& "hair.breadth 'scapes," with which tho
journals are filled. Then, Gentlemen, pray
let your neighbors read what they pay
fer, in peace. Ifyou take no interest in
these things, let the papers alone, lest
your actions give the lie to your assertions,
and induce the belief that you are not
quite as candid as you arc parsimonious.
We could now enumerates long list oil
benefits which even sued men might de.
rive from newspapers, it we thought il
worth the trouble. Byt as We think,
with Hudlbras. that
"Ihose convinced against their will
Are OF the same opinion STILL"
we shall not put our wits to work for
nought. BY the bye, we should not be
az all surprised 1t those who make prac-
tice OF borrowing newspapers, are also in
the habit of borro wing their neighborsf
pots and oyens-and ue have no more
right TO complain than the ronmonger.
