Anti-slavery bugle. [volume] (New-Lisbon, Ohio) 1845-1861, 1852-02-28
The Executive Committee, 10 the Subscribers
Of the Bngle.

The Publishing Agent this week sends bills
to a number Of subscribers who arc in arrears
for one year or more. II there arc mistakes in
any of the bills-they will be gladly corrected
whenever known. The bills are made out in
accordance with the published terms Of the pm
per. Two dollars per annum being charged for
the time since the price Of the paper was raised
and ono dollar and fifty cents :or the previous
time, that is for the period when tho advance
price was ono dollar per annum. The Publish.
ing Agent is authorized in cases where delin-
quont subscribers pay up, and also pay an I'D
vance subscription, to remit the extra charge for
delinquency equal to the time for which they
pay in advance. So that a delinquent who
pays years delinquency and also makes pay
ment for year in advance-wiil get tho two
years subscription for s3-.tho advance price.
We beg our friends who receive bills, to con-
slider our necessities and the justice Of our
claim. We have now furnished them with the
paper for one, two, three or more ycarI-with.
out any return on their part. II any are too
poor to pay and the paper is deemed useful in
their families or neighborhoods-wc shall still
gladly furnish it to them when informed Of the
facts. From those who arc able to pay, We ask an
immediate response, as an act Of justice to us.
The Committee need tho money now, to meet
their engagements for paper, printing &c.
7Ae debts noo due on The BHyic tcouid enable ", 10
meet az our HaJiliiics. publish the paper for the
rest Of the year and leave us capital in hand for
efficient future operations. Let US at least, re-
ceivc enough of our just dues to meet our en-
gascmen;s and como out clear at the years end.
The radical Ant.Savory papers OF the East,
We arc happy to learn, have never been moro
prospcrou, than now. Shall our paper in the
West languish not for want Of donations, but
for the payment Of its subscription list. Our
tcrritory is broader than theirs and It's eultiva-
ton none the less important.
Perhaps some who find heavy bill of ar
rcaragc to pay, may feel too poor to continue the
paper-wc hope there will DC few such. 1t is
the intention OF the committee, in future to
prevent tho running up OF large bills as in the
past. If therefore the bills VIC now send out
arc not responded to within reasonable period,
the paper will be stopped. Tho Committee
prefer, for their own sake rs well as FOR that Of
the subscribers, that all should take advantage
of the opportunity for adrauce payment-and
get the paper at its lowest price.
Occasionally letters are received from post
masters, stating that subscribers refuse their
papers, and that too. after having taken them
for one, two or more years without pay. This
must be negligence or knavcry without polia-
ton or excuse. We trust our list is now near
ly or quite purged from this class Of "patron,."
! Those of our subscribers in Ohio who know
| themselves to be indebted, but do not receive
! bills this week, will understand that whatever
they owe, is for less period than ono year, and
VIC hope thoy will hasten to remit for tho cur
rent volume and thus save the charge which
will be added If they delay till after the close
of their subscription year.
viii not our friends also make efforts to en-
large tho subscription list. BY little indivi-
dual effort OF friends in their respective locnli-
tics, much might be done. If but one subscri-
Der was added nt each Office to which We now
address cur papers, our list would receive an
| increase Of several hundred. Don't wait fol
Agents to visit You and to do this work. 1t i,
ausclcss expense of time labor and money ic
send them about the country to do tina. which
you can as well do amorg your neighbors at 4
less expense. The enterprise is yours as truly
as ours. The Committee are but your agents
while they stand in their lot, they look to you
to be efficient co-worlsorl in your respective
localities.
