SETTING UP FOR THEMSELVES. 1t is really
amusing to witness the efforts of some of the politicians
and presses at the South check the progress Of the
Aniisayery agitation by the encouragement Of non-
intercourse with the north. Things have got to such
pass now, that neither mudscow can be launched upon
the Santse or shoe pegsed in Charleston, but what
there great hue and cry Of see how we cut into the
trade Of these Yankees Three cheers for soutgn en-
terprize.''
One Of the most ridiculous instances Of this kind 0,
nonsense has just under observation in the col

the Commercial enterprise Of the State and 50 be writes

NEWSPAPER POSTAGE We like the follow
ing remarks from the New York Tribune. The
department can afford TO carry newspapers fora less
distance than forty miles for one. sixth of cent
ten cents year for weekly sheet, and sixty cents
for daily. Let the press be united on the subject
and the reform can be carried
Mr. Hall is very fair so far as he goes with regard
to Newspapers, but he does not 90 far enough The
re1gt the essential point in the transportation Of
printed matter; consequently, the considerations 10
favor Of uniform rate Of letter postage do not apply
to periodicals., DC. 1t is not just and equal to charge
as mnen Tor carrying small newspaper twenty miles
as Tor carrying large two thousand miles. -
Ono cent per printed sheet, weighing not more than
two ounces when mailed, is probably very fair
general rate; but there should be much lower rate
tor country newspapers-that is, for al periodicals
conveyed less than forty miles. We think ten cents
per annum IS the postage Of a weekly, tyeliy Of
Semi w eekly thirty for a Tri-Neekly. and sixty
for Daily-to be paid for full year 10 advance
would be fair rates for al journals convened not more
than forty miles from their respective places of pub
licaiion We believe such rates would be advanta
geous, yet but Justly So 10 the country press which
Is now unduly crowded by the city journals The
Weekly Tribune, for instance, now paws seventy
eight cents in Michigan, Illinois, Wisconsin. Iowa
&C., while the journals printed in the very counties
where taken, pay ffiy-two: this is too little differ
ence, but to reduce 10 flty-two and leave the
local journals subject to the same rate, would aggra
vate the injustice. One cent per copy, payable
quarterly IN advance, for every newspaper sent more
than forty miles, and ten cents per year. payable an
nuay IN advance, for every Weekly transmitted less
Than forty miles, with corresponding rates for papers
printed oilener than once week, would be Just
about right. We have no faith in The "(ranki1g,,
