WHEN WILL THE World STOP LYING "A news
paper at Troy, N. Y, published not long ago ta 9
of funheard of cruelty, about a man who had pro-
cured an iron cage in which he kept his wife,
The statement was generally circulated and be-
lioved. 1t excited the indignation of the men and
the tears of the tender sex. It appears now, how
ever, that the only foundation for the iron cage
story is the fact that gentleman of that city pur
chased a set Of steel hoops for his wfo.

APPROPRIATE EPITAPH.--We would suggest the
following as an appropriate ePitaph to be raised
over the next victim Of railroad earolessness;
"Hsre deposited the bones,
(Ihe feah being torn OIL
OF an unknown man,
Who, being deaf blind aud lame,
Neglected 10 obey the customary signals,
And was run over as q punishment
For his eontumacy.
Tho engineer promptly stopped the engia0
After II had cut the body IA two,
And with most exemplary humanity,
Conveyed the remains TO au adjacent wood shed
Who're all means Of reauscitau0n we're tried
But alas
The vital spark had fed
For the humanity they displayed,
The engineer and signal men
Were presented by the company
With service Of plate
Go thou and do likewise"

To.OuR ANNUAL ADvERTIsERs.-As this is the
time when people form partnerships, make con-
tracts and agreements, and establish business
understandings generally, it is notinappropriate
that we say n single word to our annual advertis-
ers, so as to bring about better understanding
between them and us.
We contract, according to our published rates,
to furnish our annual advertisers the space OF
ten lines Zone square, in the lPhig for one year,
for $50, and twenty lines 1.-TWO squares,) for
$50 These rates are based upon fair and
honest estimate of the value of newspaper space,
and that they be insisted on, is matter of as
vital moment, as that merchant shall sell his
goods at profit.
Now, the paint which we propose to make is
this: Several OF our advertisers, who contract
for one square, and consequently engage to pay
US $50 for that space for the year, occupy very
generally just twice that space, and very fire.
quently three four times that space; and like
wise many who engage two squares, and agree
to pay $50 for the same, occupy, during good
portion Of the year, from four to six squares.
This system, the result of the indulgence OF
press, has with us now grown to the dignity OF
| n monstrous nuisance, entailing upon us labor
for which we are not paid and filling up our col
umns, to the exclusion of matter which might
be devoted to the enhancement of the general
| interest aud value of the paper.
To remedy this wrong, which our patrons are
putting npon us unawares, we announce that,
{ 0eHCelOTll, all excess OF over aUOfG
that agreed to be paid for will be charged extra,
and account rendered in the quarterly bills
Any advertiser can readily know whether he is
exceeding his privilege, when he remembers
that ten lines constitute one squire, and twenty
| lines two squares.
Many will feel surprise when we tell them
that careful analysis of our business cOnvinces
us that we have now on our list several honest
honorable, generous patrons, who, without
knowing what they are doing, making us
pay for setting up the matter which they send
! us, an amount equal to the entire sum which
they pay us, not taking into the account at all
the space they occupy ia the paper.
The Petersburg Express, on this point, speaks
thus frankly:
"a few yearly advertisers in the Express con-
tract for two squares. and are willing to pay for
only two squares, but sometimes send four, and
think very strangely of our refusal to insert
more than they bargained for Now, as it is a
bad rule that will not work both ways, we pro-
pose TO all such, that If they will give US two
hams of bacon, or two barrels of flour, when
we purchase one, and if dry goods merchant
if he will give cloth for two coats or silk for
two dresses, when we purchase and PAY for but
one, then all such shall have four squares of
srace, although they pay for only two. The
principle is dentically the same, and VIC hope
those who have only viewed one side of the
question, will wipe their specs and take look
ut the other."-RiehmOnd Wing.

THIRTY members of the Boston police were
dctailed:to put stop to skating in that city on
Sunday week. They went to the Back Bay, the
fAvorite.resort of the skaters. last Sabbath, and
cleared the ice of a large number, but one indi-
vidual boldly refused to yield and set at naught
all devices to secure him. He skated like the
wind, and favored the helpless officials with m
eccentric series of rare and brilliant evolutions
Finally line was formed and the dignitaries
marched down upon the defiant skater. He was
trapped; thirty were more than match for
onc-but Just at the point of securing him, az
ter executing one of the most bewildering ex
PLOTS, he dashed through the advancing line and
was safe. Loud applause greeted the dscOm-
future of the police.
