again on the rise, aud Is higher at the pres.
ent time than il has ever been before. The
cost Of the white paper upon which the Trib
une Is printed is more than double what It
was year ago. Eighteen months ago We
paid for white paper Of better quality and
the same size S. 50 aud 500 per buud e,
and The paper that the TnlBUSE is printed on
this week Is more than double that price
ThTee months ago we noticed the price OF
printing paper was going up. and considered
il prudent to raise the price Of Subscription
thar TO reduce the size, to which no good
Union man eau object to tue small advance,
under tue preseat state of affairs We have
lostsome eightor ten names on that account,
(an5f protesting Union men at that, aud
whose patriotism we feel SAFE IN saying, can
be pdrehased most any tune, for the small
advance we put on the Tribune,) but their
los hps been our gain, as We have received
nearly double thatnunber OF new Subscribers
at So OOper year. They.ars whole souled pa.
lriotc citizens Of Seneot scounty, and wouls
scorn a man as they doa traitor for stopping
his County paper fur so triting a matter. All
We .desite is to live and let others live, tl
this wicked war Is over, and trust sillat all
Of our old pa nio,ic patrons will look ~ this
maltcr in1its proper light, -

days ago, we heard iIonfths lips of a gentle
man who was made yctm at Toledo. Il
went to Toledo to transact soms bushes,
and after getting through, he repaired to til
y Island HOTEL nbout9 o'clock in the eve
ming. and inquired for bed. The landlord
replied yes sir, you can havea bed. Th
price Ia rs cents, SIR" The stranger pal
the amount, us he did not wish to go up
into the city again, and in all probabili,
would miss the morning iruin goirg east

the night. In the morning while waiting {,
the train, Which was some two hours b,
hind time, aEd there beiHg no possibility I
reaching his home in time for breakfast, Il
called at the eating department which be
longs to the railroad companies centerin
there ,and asked for cup OF cVilee and son
