reach Montgomery in A days-and the publication
of the Flag e. Advertiser" will be so arranged as

New Terms Of Advertising.

The accumulation on our books Of debts due

the great difficulty attendant upon their colIec.
tion-to say nothing OF the tax thereby imposed
on us, and the losses we are forced 10 sustain,
by many of our distant debtors Deglectinq to
send US the amounts they may severally owe
forces on us tho necessity of adopting mode
of computing the cost of publications to be
made in our columns, which can be easily Under
stood, and which will enable our patrons to en-.
close, with their advertisements, the money TO
pay for them. Our new terms will not vary,
materially, from the old ones and where there
is any change it will be found to be in favor
of the advertiser For example, we propose
to make 80 words, or less, one square more
than 80, and Less than 100 two squares; more
than 100, and less than 240 three squares, &c.
Underline old system the square averages about
rs words. aa1 .su~ a.4
The price of advertising will not be changed;
the change in the mode of computing the guam.
tity OF matter in advertisements, is adopted spe
cially with view to relieve ourself from the
evils of the credit system. Sit
These rules, we propose, shall apply in all
cases where the persons making publication re-
side out Of this cry, except they be Shefifis
Coroners, Registers in Chancery, Clerks or
Court, or other public officers. b,,s
Where we open an account with officers Of
court and others Of that class. we reserve 10 our
self the right to charge the old prices.
