TO THE READERS OF THE
DEMOCRATIC PRESS"

SIRs,-9ou may not have been at
the trouble to look carefully into
the real condition in which we are
placed by the present war, and its
consequences, You can get a much
better price for whatever you may
have to sell this year than you,
could for many years past, and you
arc therefore in a much better con
dition to pay for your paper. But
how is itwith us? Have you thought
on that question? We have fewer
subscribers now than we had last
year. We lost q considerable sum
of money by the Press last year.
We now pay nearly twice as much
for our food and Clothing as we
did last year, and much higher for
paper and ink. How taen with a
smaller circulation, and "a much
dearer paper to print Oh ace we to
live and be honest? We cannot do
tit cannot be done. We must
raise the price Of our paper at once
or both we and the Press must sufr
fer. There will be a meeting held
soon in q central town,of the pro-
prietors and conductors of country
weekly papers to fix a price at
which the various county papers
can be sold in future. a few addi-
tional cents paid yearly by each of
our readers will not hurt them,
but will be much to us, If the Dem.
ocrats OF Old Preble, with their po-
tatoos, wheat, corn, hay, pork, but
ter and wood at an advanced price
will stand by and let their county
paper suffer for want Of a liberal,
effective and generous support, lei
them do so-we cannot help it

touching the rebel steamer Alaba,

be attached to England.

together a different view Of the
matter.

The Next House of Representatives

The editor Of the New York
Cypress, who has just been elected
to Congress, says:
"The only peril to the conserva-
tive majority in the next Congress
is bogus military members from
the slave States, elected IN camps
by Abolition regiments, to do Abo,
.lition duty in Congress. The Ad
ministration managers may have
doubtless do have-such bogus
members of Congress in contem,
plation-and Texas may be repre-.
scented by some ofthem, or Florida
or Virginia, perhaps-but, if it be
attempted thus to rob the Northern
people Of their suffrage and theil
rights, wo be unto the managers
who make such revolutionary at

are now feeling the pressure which
the want of small change has
brought upon them. The present
state of America, inthe northwest
ern portion of the country, is such
as no tongue or pen can describe.
Business men go from home on
business, and cannot even procure
the nccssaries of life, during a days
journey, for want of change. An
honest and hard working Irish
girl, who wishes to send a small
sum of money to her parents in
ireland, cannot send-it, because the
exchange is so high that it would
require nearly half q dollar, for
every dollar sent. A man strives
to save a few dollars, which he is
anxious to forward to Europe, to
an aged mother in her eighty
eighth year, and wholly dependent
upon her son, but he cannot do it,
as the'exchange would swallow up
all. Tradesmen cannot sell their
goods for want of small change.
In the meantime, the price of every
thing we cat and drink is rising to
such a pitch as to render it impos-
sible for many persons to buy the
nec~essaries of life. And to make
bad still worse, a tax has been put
on knowledge! just as the British
Government has pecn compelled tC
remove the last fragment of the
tax on newspapers, the American
Government has laid a tax on the
materials out of which paper and
ink are made, so that only the
widely circulated daily papers can
stand their ground. History doe:
not furnish a parallel to the rea.
and all devouring state Of things
in the United States Of America
The very continent is g%roaning
Travelling in pain, and lettering to

misery, crime, plunder, war, ant

depth and breadth of which arc

earth into q hell Of unfathomabl,

If the extract 1 here make from
the Daily Times be true, and

The Louisville Journal thus
scores certain Abolition papers who
since the election, have come out a.
gainst arbitrary arrests. 1t says:
"If these papers now spoke the
language of hearty repentance, we
should not say one unkind word of
them; but they seek to throw upon
Mr.. Lincoln the odium of acts
which they and their followers fore
ed him to adopt. He was not i'm
clined to pursue a ~proscriptive pol
icy toward lis political opponents.
They made him do so. They filled
the land with shouts of treason
They affirmed that a large party
were sympathizers. They clamored
for the Bastile, for spy craft and
terrorism. He conceded to their re-
quests, their threats and their pres.
sure, for a policy of Austrian sever
ity. They thought such a policy
would insure success at the fall cleo
lions; but, now that defeat has fol-
lowed, they bleme him and him a.
lone. In this they are guilty Of the
meanest of political WEAKNESSES.
They display neither the honesty
of Christians, nor the magnanimity
of gentlemen. They treat Mr.. Lin
