The Old Man and his GrandchiIa


There was once an Old man whose eyes hai Ls
come dim and his ears deaf When he sat at tie
dinner table, he could hardly hold his spoon, 50
that sometimes he split his soup on the cloth His
son and danghterin-law were much dispeased at
this, at last they made their old father sitin corn
er, behind the stove, and gave him food in little
earthen plate. He never got as much as he could
eat, and he would often look towards the tablewiih
wet, longing eyes
One day his shaking hands let his little dish fall
and it was broken The woman seol,led. bsit he
said nothing; he only sighed. They then brought
a wooden trough for him. Once he was sittiRg
thus in the corner his little grandchild about four
years old, was playing on the floor near him. with
some pieces of wood. a
What are you making, said the father, smil-
ing.
al am making a trough" answered the child, for
father and mother to eat from when they are old
and am growing big ~
The man and his wife looked at each other in
silence, and their tears flowed fast. They brought
their old father back TO the table gave him much
as he wished, and they never spoke angry words
when his trembling hand split soup on the cloth.

NEW ARRANGEMENT.
REDUCTION IN PRICE

An experience of fifteen years in publishing
a newspaper, has satisfied us that the Credit
system is radically wrong, both to the Pub
Usher and to the Subscriber. Under its ope-
ration large amount is constantly due from
subscribers located in every part of the coun-
ty, which at best can be realized only by
waiting years, and in two many cases is ut
terly worthless, the person receiving the paper
having deceased, or left the county, and the
printer has the vexation of finding that he is
not to receive anything for the labor and ex-
pense of years. On the other hand, we are
obliged to charge promptly paying subscribers
a sum sufficient to make up these losses.
Having become thoroughly satisfied that
the system of advance payments is better
both for publisher and subscriber, we have
determined to adopt it. Hereafter the Re-
porter will be furnished to subscribers at
ONE DOLLAR per annum payable invaria-
blv in advance and will be sent no longer
than paid for These terms will be infexibly
adhered to.
Those of our present subscribers who are
indebted to u.s. and wish to avail themselves
of these terms, can do SO upon settlement
We shall continue to send them the paper
until the close of the present volume, (Which
will be about the first of June next upon the
original terms. when we shall positively dis
continue sending the paper to every subscri-
Der in arrears, and proceed to collect the am
cunt due us.
Subscribers who have paid in advance and
whose time expires before the close of the pre-
sent volume, will have four weeks notice of
the expiration of their subscription.
We shall give this plan thorough trial.
We believe it will meet the appreciation of
all those who desire to take, and pay for, a
County paper and we are certain it will re-
leve us from many of the vexations and dis
appointments for which the business is pro-
verbal We shall at least have the satisfac-
ton of knowing that we have pay for every
paper sent and, we trust, of feeling that we
have given to every subscriber the full value
Of his Dollar
E To any person sending us five new
subscribers, with the cash. ($5) we will send
