The Price Of Newspapers.

The Brock port Republic has the follow
Ing in reference to the increase Of the price
Of the price Of newspapers:
Most Of the large daily papers 10 west
ern New York Fave advanced the price of
their daily issues. An editor Of q New
York daily Informed US last week that the
publishers in that city would soon follow
suit. Many IF the country jnurnsls are
also published at increased prices. The
advance is caused mainly BY the advance
in printing stock.
The Traveller says:
Printing materials Of all kinds have very
materially advapcedsiDce the commence
ment Uf the war. On some articles of
prime necessity to the printer the advance
IL fully equal to thirty per cent. Iu addi-
tion TO this, the governments taxes them
three per cent, on the paper they use, three
per cent. upon their advertisements, and
three per cent upon their income, il they
are fortunate enough to have any.
The New York Commercial has these re-
marks on the paper trade:
Within the past week the paper trade has
been characterized by a very sudden, and
10 some extent unlocked for rise in the
price of stock. Manufactures, anticipating
that the upward tendency will continue
for some time, even until it reaches fifty
PER cent, are taking no new orders from
dealers. but b. Ii on to the present stock,
hoping to throw it into the market BY and
by, when the increase in its price shall
have attained its extreme ascendsncy.
The increase in the price, as it stands at
present, is about twenty-f or thirty per
cent and as the market is not surfeited
with sufficient material to enable dealers to
respond promptly to the demands of con-
sumers for a very long perid, it is sntici-
pated that some embarrassment will be felt
by the last named class, who are directly
interested in the use Of paper

Uncurrept MONEY.

Under the rule Of Kspublicarism the
people ere injoying the sweets Of paper
money to the fullest exte,t The country .
literally flooded with uncurrent money
Indeed there is scarcely dollar OF real
money in circulation. Treasury notes the
bills Of all the banks and intact every thing
that constitutes our circulating medium at
the present time, cannot be converted into
gold or silver without discount Of thirty
or thirty Eve per cent.
Il is true, this uncurrent money passes
ct par in all business operations, bat it Is
susceptible Of the dearest demonstration
that the entire difference paid to convert
deprecated paper into gold falls on the
mechanics, farmers and labcrers. and il
wrung out of thei. sweat and toll. Nay
more they not only lose the amount
which is actually charged for discount at
the banks to change the paper into gold.
but they also pay per centage on that
amount equal TO the avsrsgs rate Of profit
which merchants and grocers charge Oh
their goods.
For instance, the laboriug man. when Ee
returns home Of Saturday evening. with
his weeks wages in his pocket. stops at his
merchants or grocer's. and pays him the
amount of his weekly bill. To pay for his
goods the merchant is obliged to pay 10
specie, or. in other words, to retrun enough
OF the insolvent money to the Eastern
wholesale dealer to bring the price Of the
articles 10 specie standard. Whatever is
the difference in the price Of gold and the
bills received for the goods is added to the
price Of the goods.
The fact that wages are little higher
now than formerly, does not make up the
difference the mechanic and laborer have
to pay on the advanced prices of the arti.
cles Of necessity. Every article of consump-
tion is now charged from thirty or forty
per cent. higher than it ought to be in con
sequence Of the deprecated currency in
circulation.
1t makes no sort Of difference 10 the
merchant or grocer how great the discount
is on the paper circulating as money, for he
has only to put his profits above all contin-
gences, and to let the loss fall on the labor.
er or ia rmer when he comes for his calico,
tea. sugar, or other little necessaries or
comforts for his family.
Such are the beauties of Republican
rule. Our country is being flooded with
insolVent money. and the burden of bring
ing it up to the specie standard falls upon
the shoulders Of the producing classes and
| laborers.
