NEwspApERs.-The Federal (Ga.) Union

NEwspApERs.-The Federal (Ga.) Union
has the following remarks:
"In Georgia there are now forty. seven news.
papers, not counting the weekiies issued by
dailies, having in the aggregate say seventy.
five thousand subscribers. This is liberal
allowance, as many persons are subscribers to
three, four, or half dozen papers in the
State. Ofthese seventy five thousand subscri.
bers, we may safely calculate that fifteen thou
sand never pay the publishers one cent. Here
then are sixty thousand subscribers to keep for
ty seven newspapers alive; number hardly
sufficient to support ten goodpapers Is it any
wonder, then, that so many editors retire in
disgust from their posts. Indeed, were it not
for the patronage of advertisers, few papers
could exist year in Georgia, at the present
rates. These rates should be increased, as
material is unusually expensive and wages ex.
orbitant. And while We see little benefit TO
be derived from a convention of editors and
newspaper publishers, a half dozen or d"zen
even of the largest newspapers in the State
might form Printers Union, for the purpose
of lessening the present high prices of paper,
and terrifying themselves against imposition by
apprentices and travelling printers. No buSl-
ness in the State is less protected by law than
that OF the newspaper-no business is so en-
tirey dependant upon the honesty of men,
Where the law nterpnses for protection to
other interests, it serves only to embarrass the
publisher, and render him the focus of attack
from hundreds, whose hoaor is highly injured
by such proceedings, though they never have
paid, and never will pay, one cent for the pro.
lection ofiheir soaring pride"
