Printers Gratuities.

No class Of mechanics, perhaps, suffer more
from the predatory and begging habits of indi-
vlduals Than printers. They work so hard, in
vest so much, and furnish their papers SO low,
that people really seem TO think they actually
are worth nothing but to be given away, or Ia
ken without leave Accordingly, nothing is
more common than for people, who have the
curiosity 10 read something that happens TO be
particularly interesting, or who wish send a
paper 10 friend as token of remembrance,
TO run into printing office, and ask for, or take
paper JUS: from the press: and if the PRIMER
should think of taxing him anything for II, the
customer would think himself quite insuIled
by the niggardliness of the printer! With
what other mechanics or businessmen would
people think of taking the same liberties? Go
into grocery and ask the retailer 10 give you
a fonr-pence- -ha-penny's worth of tea, coffee, or
sugar,-and unless you were really an object
Of chariiy-he would probably think himself
imposed upon. Or a visit to a bookstore and
make. off with half dozen sheets Of wiring
paper, and most likely the proprietor will pursue
his customer with writ for petit larceny. Go
into jolner's shop and ask him TO give you
SIX cents worth of his, wares, and you would
feel as if you were engaged in a cheap busi-
ness. And yet people will enter a printing Of.
flee, and take six cents worth of printers la
Dor and really think it one ol, That sort of things
which should be given away-because the paper
IS PRINTED. A clean WHITE sheet he would
think too valuable to abstract without pay, and
yet 1t costs printer twenty-five dollars every
week 10 set up The types that are impressed
upon The sheet that makes il WORTHLESS. No
moths is not the way 10 do business. If you
want a paper and will not subscribe for it-asI
all honorable men do-just step into the office
and laying down silver bit say, "Sir, if You
please, let me have one of your papers and take
that in pay for it," You will be readily accom-
modated, and then be se.ted, mot looking over
The shoulders of the composition 10 read his man
uscript,) or retire ard read YOUR OWN paper
like man of good conscience and honorable
Cultirator.

sTRoUDsBURG, MONROE COUNTY PA, FRIDAY s4

they found the French ready to. support them,
they Showed this province, and especially the
whites who settled on lands (now in Norihamp-
ton and Monroe eounlies.) of which they. re-
garded themselves as the rghtlul owners. how
they resented the treatment they met with from
The Proprie,ares and the Six Nations. They
took severerevenge, by laying waste the from
Tiers, and paid SO little regard to menaclng
message which the Six Nations sent them, that
they in their turn threatened TO turn their arms
against them, and at last, forced them to ac-
knowledge they were men, that IS, a free inde-
pendent nation. We see above. that great stress
is laid on deed, said to be granted above 55
years ago. This is said 10 be the deed Of 1856.
Yet, though it is mentioned here, as lying on
The table; nay, though Cannassatego says, that
he had seen with his wn eyes, yetit is doubt
ed whether there really was such deed-lf so,
the question may be asked, why was il not re-
corded as well as the release Of 1897 answer
ing thereto? i does not appear, that Sassoonan
the Delaware chiefwith whomihe treaty of 1928
was made. and Nutimus, one of those who had
signed the above release, were admitted 10 make
any defence, or TO say any thing In their own
vindica,ion. Had there been any design 10 do
justice TO the Delawares, or to preserve the
friendship of those, who, from the earliest set
Element of the country, had been kind neigh
bours and friends, they would have been admit
ted 10 speak for thems elves, and to offer what
reasons they had, for refusing TO quit the lands.
But then this might have discovered the unfair
ness of the "Walk, and other unfair advantages
taken, and might have brought back the boBn-
daries to the Lehigh hills, the place agreed
upon in the deed of III 8 and the treaty of l72S,
and so we'll known by the commissioners of the
Penns, as appears from Mr.. Logan's letter al
ready quoted, and from the purchase, which the
same gentleman and company made from the
Indians about 1929 of the Durham tract. In
Tbs case il might then have cost the Proprieia-
ries three or four hundred pounds more TO pur-
chase Te lands in the Forks and Minisnks, If
the Indians there had been willing 10 dispose
Of them; or, had the Indians refused that, 1t might
have been difficult TO remove the people settled
there, and TO reimburse them the money they
had paid the Penns for the lands they had there
taken up; besides Mr.. Allen and other private
persons, were making very large estates by
getting the good lands there surveyed TO them
by virtue of old rights, which they had bought
up. For these and other reasons, it was Judged
best TO call in the assistance ofthe Six Nations,
10 put them in mind, as had been done before,
Of the use they might make, of having conquer
ed the Delawares, and of the right they thereby
acquired TO their lands As we have seen, by
these means the removal of the poor Delawares
was thus summarily effected.
