Anti-slavery bugle. [volume] (New-Lisbon, Ohio) 1845-1861, 1847-12-24
Reduction of Price.

Recently the Elk. Com. decided to reduce
the price of the Bugle from the ommence-
ment of the New Year, to 81 per annum, if
paid at the time of subscribing; 1925 if paid
,Uithin three months, and $3.50 if payment is
DELAYED longer than three months. No sub
s~cription will be received for less than six
months, and subscribers for a half year must
Invariably pay in advance. These terms will
be rigidly adhered to, and no one must think
himself hardly used, if not a single days grace
is given.
The reason of the Committee for reducing
the price was two-fold-to extend the circu-
lation of the paper, and to lessen the pecunia-
ry loss to which its publication weekly sub
iects them. But if the friends of the Society
and the paper do not exert themselves neither
of these objects will be accomplished, and
the Committee will labor under a yet heavier
burden. Fire hundred additional Subscribers
must be obtained-one thousand ought, and
man be, by reasonable eXertions of the true
friends of the cause. There are certainly at
least fifty persons in the West who are album
dainty able 10 promise what the Committee
ask of them-Salen, without any solicitation,
has furnished five, and will probably increase
the number. Friends, the Committee do not
ask you to give ten dollars, but merely 10 adj
vance it. There is no doubt but what if you
choose to do it,you can obtain 10 new subscri-
bers to the paper, and thus obtain your money
back, and the Committee are DESTROYS you
should do this, for they would far rather fur
nish you with ten copies OF the Bugle for the
money you advance, than to receive it as a
gift, for by extending the circulation of the
paper, Anti-slavery principles will be strength
ened. But if you cannot procure the ten sub,
%scribers, you have the privilege of giving &c
SO many of your friends as will make up the
number, a present of the paper for one veal
and what present would be more useful
Don't, we beg of you, let it be told to James
X. Polk that we could not enlist one hundred
volunteers in this war, while tens of thousands
90 at his bidding to Mexico. Send in you
names Immediately, that the Committee ma,
know on what and WHOM they may depend
A few words to those Of our Anti-slaver
friends whom we hardly expect to advanc
their $40, and then we shall be ready TO re
> cord the names Of volunteers.
Abolitionists the price of the paper wa
not reduced 10 save you from paying the cd
: fifty cents every year-not at all! We expe'
you to add another fifty cents TO your sui
. scrip,ions, and have a copy sent to some or
who needs the paper far more than you {
, the money. Don't do as one of our fIienC
, did last week, who sent US a letter saying 1
BugIe must be sustained, and then wound l
q by saying, | want to subscribe for two 9th
papers, and take so many now that you vi
please discontinue my Bugle.
