have any article to sen, or whatever else
they follow to make a livelihood out of,
should be announced to the world. through

paper receiving the first red cent for its pub
location. And a great many who are not
so much as patrons Of a paper, in any way,
have the cool impotence to ask the editor to
publish their business without making any
charge.
The latest bore Of this kind we have had,
is a communication putting some water cure
establishment in Mercer. Pa, and signed
by the owner, r. Hanna. This gentleman,
who is well known in this community, as be-
ing one of the most wealthy men in the
country, sends his puff of this establish
ment to one of our merchants, with the fol.
lowing request:
MERCER, Pa. May 10th, 1853.
60 Please be so kind as to get the
enclosed short communication published in
any of your papers in Cadiz. think there
is nothing in it Objectionable. l think any
of them will ckeerfully publish it, peshaps
both. Our object is to give the cure publ
city
(Signed,) ar. Hanna"
This "'short communication" That Mr..
H. speaks of is nothing less than an adver-
tisement of his water cure establishment
Had it been sent to us as an advertisement,
we should have "cheerfully" published it,
and charged Mr.. H. with the same, and
would have thought that there was nothing
in it Objectionable" But being sent in the
form of a communicate ion" we decline
publishing it, without receiving a just rec
ompense therefor.
Reader just look at the cool impadeuce
there is in the note we publish above. Mr..
H. is not a patron of our paper in any man
ner or form, and yet he has the impuaence
to ask us to publish a "short communica-
ton in our paper, putting up his establish
ment, whereby he may be enabled to add
thousands to his already large pile, and we
not receive one cent for publishing his
''short communication" which is nothing
less than an advertisement. We are not
like the "Tailor of Summerfeld," "who
worked for nothing and found lis own
thread" Whatever We do in a public ca
paclty to help private individuals, we wish
to be we'll renumerated therefor, for we can't
work for nothing.
We trust hat Mr.. Hanna will remember,
that whenever he wishes a "short eommuni-
cation published n the use %ntinel," telling
people how he wishes to make money, that
he will either send some of that money for
publishing it, or else tell us to charge it to
him, which would be just as good as cash.
We hope the above will teach our old
friend, and some others, hat we know OF,
a lesson, that they will not soon forget
We have been plain about this matter; but
we think such impudeuce as Mr.. H. exhibits,
deserves plainness of the very p~llinest kind.
