by receiving an unusual number of new sub
scrlbers, paying in advance. This is the best
for all CONCERNED and the time is near at hand
when the advance pay system must be adopted
by all country papers.
Our old subscribers in arrears are also doing
considerable not half enough We wish
them to understand, that the times will no lon
ger permit Of our suffering them to lag behind,
but that all, whose arrears are for one full year
or more, on the first of January, must settleup
We are sending bills out every week bat it
takes good while to attend to them all and
we hope no one will wait till a bill and special

strange that men can't be as honorable in news
paper debts as any other Our patience is get
