" A Good Time for Papers.

The Chronicle in reply to the above says
lis it? Why, then, have a hundred and
fifty Of them been recently discontinued p
Why do the Tribune, Times, Evangelist and
other papers come to us Oh smaller sheets ?
Why is it that the Independent, with its large
circulation, is the subject Of such paragraphs
as this:
1t is well known that some months ago
that journal, like many others, was in immi-
nent peril Of extinction. In this emergency
the Government was induced to come forward
and make it an official organ for the pubica-
tion of the laws thus adding largely to its
income, and in all probability deciding the
question of its continued existence
We suppose this to be true, since it has
been in circulation in substance for consider
able time and has not been contradicted.
1t is true that everybody wants to see the
rews-that is, the war news. This increas
es the demand for cheap daily papers from
the cities, and so far as these sales are profit
able, is relief under cmbarrassments that
would otherwise quite overwhelm them. That
it is not sufficient to balance the losses in 9TH
err respects is clear from the facts already
mentioned, that some OF them have been
obliged to stop, and others (and those among
the most extensively circuIated) to curtai
expenses by issuing smaller sheets.
The great difficulty is in the adrertisiny
The receipts from this source have fallen of
rulnously, owing to the general depression
and dsarrangement oil business.
