Those who prefer to pay the carriers can

o' to us for their papers, as the carriers
buy the papers Of us, and there our respon-
- 1sibility ends. The carriers are advised to
reqAirs payments strictly in advance, in all

In regard to the rates and the terms Of

The Cree,.ky.tem !.

Whatever may be the advantages or bene-
fits of the credit system when judiciously
used, we are satisfied, from long experience
and close observation, that it 10 not suited to
our business. We can get no credit, worth
speaking of, for paper, type, presses, or la
Dor. Everything necessary to carry on our
business has to be paid for in cash at very
short notice. If then, We gips credit to our
subscribers, advertisers, or for job work, we
must either do an extraordinarily profitable
business, or in very short time find the bal
ance largely on the wrong side.
Unfortunately the latter is the case with
us at the present time. While the amount
which any one of our customers may owe US,
may be quite small, yet the aggregate atnssnt
due us makes up sum which is wholly dis
proportional to the amount Of capital we
have invested, is altogether more than We
ought to be asked to carry, and is calculated
to embarrass US considerably. II, for in.
stance, one subscriber finds it difficult to
raise three or six dollars for us, and three
hundred subscribers fall in arrears, how dc
they suppose we arc to raise the nine OF
eighteen hundred dollars for them? And
yet how are we to get along without it?
The fact is we must abolish the credit sys-
TEN in these small transactions, or be abol-
islcd ourselves. And as the former course
is decidedly the most agreeable to u just
now, we have cheerfully united with our
neighbors in publishing the notice at the
head OF our columns. Our friends may con.
slider it new Declaration Of Independence
aud one very proper to be made at this par
ticular time. And they may be assured that
we will adhere to our Declaration, though
our subscription list should run down to Q
bakers dozen. job work and all transient
advertisements will be put upon the same ba
sis. and by transient We mean ALI excep
those of regular customers with whom VI
have mutual accounts.
In regard to old subscribers who are in ar
rears, We will give them until the frst o.
August next to settle arrears. And at tina
time all who shall not have paid in advanc,
will find their names on tho carriers list
who are authorized to require payment il
advance IL they see lit.

commencement OF yellow SPRING.
College, IOWA.
KossUrn, Iowa, June 10, '5S.
MEssRs. Ep.roRd:--Your known interest in
the welfare of this institution, prompts me
to send you brief account of the commence
ment exercises, which took place yesterday.
The heavy rain Of the previous night kept the
farmers Of the vicinity from their fields, and
they gladly turned out to show their interest
in the cause Of Christian education. The
church was crowded at an early hour, and
deem interest was manifested in oil the exer
cises.
The Preparatory Department occupied the
forenoon with sixteen orations, interspersed
with choice music from select quartette.-
The themes were generally judiciously cho-
sen and we'll discussed, while the independ-
ence of thought and manly oratory OF some,
showed that they had correctly appreciated
and properly improved the privileges they
had enjoyed. lnthe afternoon, orations we're
delivered by the College students, all Of
whom performed their parts with the merit
and dignity Of true collegians. The last ora
tions were from the graduating class: Hiram
Hill, Limit Of Responsibility; j. I. Ware,
Tho True Mission Of Man; William Camp
bell, Self-Reliance.
These young men, early in their course,
devoted themselves to the Gospel ministry,
and have reached the goal OF college life
through not few trials and struggles. We
hope, however, that God has thus fitted them
to be successful in winning souls to Christ.
The orationswcre followed by an address
to the Zalethii, by Rev. William Salter, OF
Burlington, on the life and character OF JON
athan Edwards. The speaker seemed to have
can Theology" and warmly urged the stu
dents to initiate him in thorough devotion to
the work Of saving souls.
The Baccaaureate, by the President, DR.
DR.. Gillette, was full Of important thought
| aiming to stimulate the graduates TO constan,
and untiring activity in doing. II his sug
gestions were faithfully followed by oil pi-
Gus graduates, many desert place would
soon blossom like rose.
In reviewing the year We find great cause
! for gratitude to God. Though. owing to the
money pressure, we have not had large
number of students, we have yet had our
share. Best Of all, several Of both sexes
have found the Saviour, and to-day return to
their homes to unite their voices with Their
parents in praising God, and We trust to la
Dor faithfully in the vineyard of Christ
Let our College in Iowa have the abundan,
sympathy and prayers Of the Church.
