NC &C. The card which the editors
, 'hs respective newspapers in Baltimore
20 found il necessary to publish, is thus
.;.od in the National Intelligencer.
T IN onr last number we informed our
,ders that we should suspend the pub
k.o,ion Of our paper one week, in order
NV s,,r 10 make collection. We did try ;
I 4 ai{er travelling sixty miles, how much,
I'd patrons, do you suppose we raised2
~ he first - cent. The consequence
4 that we are compelled TO publish our
ror this week on half sheet, as we

s..b is the DER true tale Of West
nubllsher, apolos iziug TO his readers
w Lsing obliged to cut down his weekly
4 ,l 10 one-half Of its proper dimensions.
simple story Of this editor is only il
,,,iye Of the general history and state
Il newspaper publication all over the
Il he'd States. A large proportion Of the
rso,oers, in fact merely drag on from
10 day a lingering, laborious, and
arl existence, which most of them
rn'd long ago have voluntarily resigned
II for the fixed motive of pride and duty
;,h induces them TO cling to existence,
as Ono as it is endurable merely, but
& loag as it is possible.
For this sickly condition of the news
7cr press the publishers of newspapers
themselves somewhat TO blame. Of
the arts of life, theirs is that whose
ass1rs have perhaps less Of the esprit
corps than any other. They too often
No. themselves to be imposed upon by
.r customers; and, in truth, the rival
is such among themselves, that they
ia half afraid to insist on the same jus
Ia which every body else exacts from
|& d., lest they should lose their patrons
|g ol)rcing their rights. True it hap
S. that while there are very few pub
t,s Of newspapers who would not fee
'A selves entirely at ease, in body and
.ni L. if they could realize within fourth
|t g whole amount due upon their books
|s c are almost as few who are not, a

The only remedy for this evil that W

|N themselves more and more to max
| r sheets acceptable to their customer:
