To the Public.

The rights of editors and publishers of papers
have been too long neglected. Justice will never
be done unless themselves assert their rights
and enforce the most rigid rules, which in the
end will be found alike salutary to the public and
beneficial to those engaged in the press. Pub
fishers of papers have been so long imposed upon
by the community at large, that they are conSld-
cred to some extent degraded class OF beings,
when in fact there is vocation in life so honor
able, deserving of so high consideration, produc-
tive of so much good, class that exerts 50 power
full an influence. Ii is known to be proverblal tor
the debtors to newspaper publishers to consider
their demands as the last to be Paid--debts to
which there is attacked moral obligation, and
which they can refuse to pay with justice and
honor: hence, it Is incumbent upon the conduc-
tors of the press to assert their own rights, and
resolve, severally and jointly, to bring all patrons
of newspapers under the same obligations that at
tach to other contracts, or always remain IN pow
erty and want, with thousands due them from the
most solvent men in the country.
We call upon all editors and publishers OF pa
pers who approve of the following rules, to endorse
them by their signatures place them at the head
Of their papers, and strictly adhere to them.
LIST. No subscription received without payment
in advGaee.
I'd. No subscription received for less than six
months.
Sd. Advance payment will be required from
all transient advertisers.
4th To announce no man for any office, either
State or County, without the Gdrance payment OF
ten dollars.
5th. Political circulars charged as advertise
ments and payment required in Advance.
9th All advertisements of a personal alterca-
ton will be charged double and payment requir-
ed tn GdUGnee.
7th Election tickets will not be printed with
cut order, nor delivered to any person without
payment.
9th. All subscribers, without respect to persons
who are delinquents, on the first OF October, VIII
be stricken from the list, and their accounts put
in suit

The Hour class I

BY J. Q ADAMS
Alas how swift the moments fly!
How flash the years along!
Scarce here, yet gone already by!
The burden of a song
See childhood, youth and manhood pass;
And age with furrow'd brow;
Time was-time shall be--drain the glass
But where in time is nolo?
Time is the measure but OF change;
No present hour is found,
The past--the future fill the range
Of Times unceasiIig round.
Where then is now! In realms above
With Gods astonishing lamb,
In regions of Eternal Love,
Where its enthroned | AN.
Then, Pilgrim, let thy joy and tears
On Time no longer lean:
But henceforth all thy hopes and fears
From Earth's affections wean.
SO God !Iet votiVe accents rise;
With truth--with virtue live;
To all the Bliss that Time redeems,
Eternity shall give.

THE CONSEQUENCES.

The last "Empire State,'' paper publish.
ed in the city of New-York, under this title
gives the following most doleful and heart
rending account Of the situation of many
females of that city, and state, who, as every
one knows, that has visited that section, per
form a vast deal Of labor in constructing
variety of articles that contribute both TO the
luxury and convenience of the whole coun-
try. Shame on the heartless Williams now
in power, who are bent on the destruction
of every thing with which the country a.
bounds. That not even the poor, helpless
women and children can escape the curse
they entail upon the land. How can anv
man or setuf men, not absolutely tends and
devils pursue, TeCkessly such a coarse.
Are they lost not only to principle, but to
feeling also9 Have they, in their hellish
course Of damning corruption forgot that
they were born Of woman, and that she has
a stronger claim to protection than all other
mortal beings.
The account says:
There are thousands Of females in this
city employed in stock-making, sewing &c,
maintaining themselves and assisting aged
relatives by honest and vrtuous labor The
CluCl lhOaSuiOS VI duuliuSlIdllOu arc
reaching them. Their employers are dis
charging them, from inability TO continue
their business. The ready-made clothing,
military stocks, &c, sold TO the south can
not be paid for, except at ruinous sacri-
fee, owing to the utter confusion in the ex-
changes. Man was made to battle with the
elements, with misfortune, with the hard
chances of life. But what can helpless wo-
man do, when the few employmeuts she can
engage in are interrupted and destroyed?-
In hundreds and hundreds Of cases, the al
tentative, the dreadful alternative is--tne
ruin ofcharacter, virtue, health, and every
thing valuable here and hereafter What
became of thousands of unfortunate females
driven to starvation and despair in 1871
Such is the consequences of using the whole
powers of this government in breaking down
the currency, the industry and business of
the country. No one escapes the calamity.
The energetic business men, the hardy and
gallant seaman, the honest and industrious
Internationally, virtuous woman, and
helples infancy are swept away by the tor
rent. Fellow-citizens! let us end :his state
of things. We cannot live so. Redeem
New York, and the virtuous men who ac-
complish the glorious triumph, will accom-
plsh the greatest good that ever any set of
men bad it in their power to do-they will
save the present generation from ruin and
demorallzation-save free government-save
themselves and save their country.
