THE CHARLESTON MERCURY.
For the present, this newspaper will be
printed on half-sheet. While we have
determined upon the change with reinc.
lance, we have adopted it in view OF ex-
istlng facts in this beighborhood, as n
measure of justice, no less to our readers
than to ourselves. We have purchased
an extra press, from which the Mercury
is now issued, in order to remove our fast
Hoes press beyond TIE danger of bonn
bardment. It's place could not be sun
piled within the Gonfedcracy, and we are
determined to continue the publication of
the Mercury at Columbia, even il Charles
ton is destroyed. Our small press has
not the capacity to issue our large cdi-
ton on double sheets. Hence the tenn.
porary curtailment Of the papers dimen
sions. The Mercury, in the views which
it has advocated from the time of it's es
Enlistment. is identified with the pres
cnt struggle more closely, perhaps, than
any other journal in tie South. Our
readers win be gratifed to know that it's
circulation is very large, in spite Of the
independent stand taken last SUNNI err and
winter, and the clamor against our efforts
TO expose to view Executive weakness.
Congressiye subserviency, and the papu-
lar Notwithstanding the diff
culties of the time, and the cash system
on which the paper is bow conducted -
The great irregularity of the mails has
destroyed the sale of papers to newsdeal-
ers elsewhere, because they can find no
sale for papers which are stale. We have
thus lost the sale of 1912 daily Mercurys,
sold at cost price TO the newsdealers of
Richmond, Atlanta, Augusta, Monteom.
cry and Pensacola. We have fallen only
one hundred in subscriptions. Last year
our circulation was 10000. Our cireu.
htlon now is $3.50 daily 4 500, country
paper 4,o32.
We intend that the Mercury shall not
fail TO be published in any event. In is
suing half sheet only, we but initiate
the example Of the leading daily pa pers of
Richmond, New Orleans, Petersburg,
Memphis and Mobile. The diminution
in size will not materially effect the guam
tlty OF reading matter in this journal. As
vehicle of news, its columns will con-
tanue to display enterprise and dscrimi-
nation. Asa business sheet, it will not
be burdened with standing advertisements,
which everybody knows, has ceased to be
profitable.

there was too much leniency towards the

would only be lenient to the Union men

unless something was done there would
be no hope for them.
Mr.. Cochrane said he would put down
the rebellion with the whole fore of til Q
