To Our NoE-PAY1NG SUBscR1BERs.-The
present year is nearly at an end. and in look
ing over our subscription list we perceive
great many names that have no credit entered
for payment, opposite. We hope every one,
for whom this hint is intended, will take early
measures to pay US our lawful due, and forward
US $40 note per mail. which viii pay for the
present and coming year. We have also, a
large amount of claims against a number of
individuals for job printing, which we have
been, for months, anxiously expecting pay
ment. When we inform those who owe us,
that the cash expenses of our Office are about
$50 per week, and that we must pay prompt
ly or stop operations, we think they win not
hesitate to payup promptly, and thus cheer US
on in our laborious and unceasing task.

aggrieyed by an article which we publish
ed last week, relative to the Van Buren,
meeting held in this city on the LIST inst.-
Mr.. w. states that he was in Pontotoc a:
the time the meeting was held, and thathe
had no agency in his appointment as de-
gate to the convention to be held in Jack

applicable to Mr.. Weir, we were in error,
and we ought not to have included him
