pelledto to leave out some of our own scrib-
blings to make room for such articles as
we have named.
The February No. of "Graham's Mag
azine," is received. 1t surpasses all its
predecessors, splendid as they were. That
our readers may know what manner OF
man Graham is, we quote the article
below, from the number before US:
STAKE Your COUNTY PAPERs.-We
hope that there is not subscriber to
.sGraham," who has overlooked the pro-
priety and duty of sustaining by his sub
scription and advertising, the paper of his
own county. This duty is the first, even,
before subscribing to "Grahans," which is
well worth the money it costs, and prior,
as matter of interest merely to SUBJ
scription to any Journal whatever. The
prosperity of the county in which you
live-its thriving business character-ac-
tive intelligence, and more than all, its
very moral strength, depends upon the
liberal policy Of each and every one of
you, toward the central point of your
greatness-yoUR OWN COUNTY JOURNALS!
Now think Of this!--before you squan-
der your dollar upon some ephemeral,
trashy, and perhaps pernicious sheet of a
distant city. The telegraph and railroad {,
have brought the news early TO your edit
or--earlier than you will get it from afar
by due course OF mail. Now. encourage
his heart and strengthen his hands by a
manly support, and let his sheet widen,
lengthen and brighten, under the genial
influence Of generous and proper esti-
mate Of his position.
y II you want literature, as well as neacs
and general miscellany, he will give you
'.Graham'' and his paper for, perhaps
$4-but, GRAHAM himself does not want
you, unless you appreciate and support
your own county newspapers-he has no
just right to receive, or you to remit him
$3, while this debt remains unpaid at
home. 10 to,-you are dull fellow
stupid-and would not understand u.s.
Put your three dollars in stocking and
go to sleep Drowsy!- enact Rip Van Win
ikle over again-vbut come pot Us, GRA-
HAM wants subscribers that have brains,
heart, soul--a quick eye to perceive du-
ty and truth, and manly courage TO meet
and back them--now ai ul.sIaa
'Life's first, best duty, is at home.''
rs Try our suggestion, reader, and you
will feel more like man, the first day you
take hold of the newspaper Of your neigh
borhood, as subscriber, who has paid his
Sc and done proper act of citizenship.
We have some words. 10 say to our
brothers of the press, which, for the pres
ent we defer, as to the proper and effec-
tive use Of their power, in driving from
their borders, the locust.like literature
which covers the land-carrying destruc-
ton on its wings, and leaving death in its
wake. But,
