SHALL WE STARVE!
This is a question in which we feel personally
interested, and would be glad to excite an equal
interest among our readers.
Some time since we called upon those of our
subscribers who wished to pay for their paper in
wood or produce, to bring US the articles as soon
as convenient The result was something like
the following. One good friend set out TO bring
us some grain, but having a chance TO sell it be-
fore he reached our Office, disposed of it. Well
its consolation to know that we were so near OBJ
tanning something 10 meet those wants that flesh
is heir to. But really we can't be witty with
empty cellars and pantlies. We say cellars, be-
cause there are three families connected with our
office, and as none of them are sufficiently SUBJ
limated to render eating among the non-esse initials
of life, they must all be provided for. We do not
wish to be urgent beyond necessity, but our friends
will allow us again to say that, tcood, grain, p0-
fotoes. butter, meat or cash from those OF our
subscribers who are near, and cash from those who
| are afar off, will come very oPportunely II tor
warded soon. Among the reasons which render
It necessary to call on our subscribers again are
the following.
/. Our expenses connected with the Office
amount to from 20 to $50 per week. A consd-
! cradle part of this is cash and we must meet 1t.
