Court WEEK ~ The next term Of the
Court of Common Pleas for Meigs county.

please. We are NOT in Starving condi.

majority Of our subscribers have paid up
punctualy. Some never intend 10 pay.
We hear almost every week Of one or more
of The latter class "moving off 10 The wcsl." "
We are righ. glad their accounts are small.
But there are still many good, honest men.
who are in arrears; and for The simple rea.
son that they have neglected or forgotten il.
Now, we wish TO retain all good subscribers,
and get as many more as possible; and we
also desire 10 get rid of all bad ones; bul al
present we hSSe no means Of Distinguish
ing between tho two classes asI.named--
those who never intend 10 pay, and those
who have neglected 10 pay up TO this lime.
We hope that all who intend 10 pay will
make il convenient 10 do so at an eariy day.

LATE AGAlN.-We have not, as yet, sue.

der many obligations 10 our subscribers for
their patience during our embarrassment.
