NOTICE TO SUBSCRIBERS.

Though we have II penalty for nonpnyment
OF subscriptions to our paper when due, it has
not been rigidiy cxactcd by our predecessors !:
and we, to some extent, have followed their cx.
ample. Rensons satisfactory TO ourselves have
led us TO the conviction that we should in all
cases, inforce the penalty. We therefore give
notice that on and after the lst of April next,
we shall charge for all subscriptions not paid
within six months $3.50. aud $500 if not paid
within one year. Those who come forward and
settle before that time may save something but
those who neglect until after our rule rocs into
effect, may rely upor paying for their negligence
the full amount of tile penalty.
Experience, too, has taught us that there should
be some charge made for Obituary Notices cx.
ceeding certain length. We shall, in future,
charge the excess over one square, ut udvertis-
ng rates, TO be charged to the party who orders
it i'll tho paper.
The above terms have been agreed to by the
Proprietors Of the Abbevillc Banner and Iude-
pcndrmt Press.
