AWOrd fOrOurseivcS

Since the Chronicle came into our hands,
We have clothed it in new type, at COST
of $500 or Si00-Olficc rent has nearly
doubled-Printiug paper has advanced ~
or 25 per ccnt.-The number Of workmen
emp,oyed is larger-Farmcrs' produce is
raised in price generality. but our terms
have not been advanced. Thus. while
or patronage has increased, our profits
have not.
E-A reasonable inference from these
premises is. that WE MUST RAISE oUR
RATES OF CHARGES, or onr ren''rs must
obtain an increase Of PATRONAGE. The
parers above us on the West Branch, and
some on the North Branch and elsewhere,
have raised their charges. We choose to
wait-one year longer-at the old rates,
trusting that we may be favored with such
an increase of Subscribers. Advertising,
and Job Work, as may enable us to keep
on at our old rates.
In almost every neighborhood, within
90 miles around Lewisburg, additional
patrons might readily be obtained.
We send out weekly % papers in single
,srappers. To print, fold, envelope, and
direct singly, 81 times year, affords bu:
small profit indeed. If each one now
getting a paper alone will get one or more
new subscribers to join him, the larger
packages will go more safely, and afford
Us better compensation.
NAIVE ask all who approve the course
of our paper, to aid it by getting one or
more subscribers.
