Paper.

IL is highly Notifying to us TO be compelled
to issue the Herald upon such wretched paper
as we have lately used; for which however
we have had TO pay two or three dollars per
bundle more than good paper is worth. If our
subscribers who are owing for the Herald
and all are owing, who have not paid in ad.
vance--we should be able 10 send abroad and
get supply Of good paper. II is painful to
us, TO issue sheet so thin that sharp sight.

blocking through" newspaper is TOO literal.
Upon good substantial paper, we can make
a good looking Herald; bot upon The mere
ghost Of paper, it is impossible to make a fair
