The CHEAP PosrAeg BILL.-One of tn

THE CHEAP PosrAag BILL.-One OF the
most important acts Of the Congress JUS
closed, TO the people, is the passage OF the
cheap Postage Bill. On our second page
we give synopsis of it md We shall, proba
bly,, give the entire law in our next ISSUE.
The feature of it which we ,hink princi-
pally interests the public, is that which allows
the FREE CIRCULATION OF NEWSPAPERS w1TH-
IN THE COUNTIES WHERE PUBLISHED, thereby
decreasing. nearly one-third, the cos, of
county newspaper to county subscriber.
One of the gret test difficulties that country
printers have labored under for years, name ly,
the competition Of the mammoth publica>
tions Of the cities, is removed by this enact
ment, and the country printer can now,
plausibly, look forward to degree Of pros
perity, which, under the old dspensation.
was almost entirely beyond the hope Of the
most sangune Of the craft. When we can
furnish paper, containing all the important
neps contained in the papers of the cities, TO-
gether with the local incidents Of the coun'
ty, the legal advertisements, marriages
deaths, &c, &c, at less cost than theJ
can be furnished, we hardly think there is
sensible man or woman in the county thai
would not prefer the paper printed in The
midst Of the community in which they live
being, as it is record Of not only III,
passing events of the world, but, particularly
of the events trahspring in the neighborhoo'
of their acquaintance.
The county publisher has means of OBJ
iaining news, far in advance Of the count.

invariably furnishes |. TO his subscribers from

other advantages, he can bring the real prlc
of his paper below that Of foreign competi

al least, living support, and one will aifor

} to cheer bis age when worn out with labo
Our main object, however, ia noticing th
