SAVE YOUR Readers gener
ally may not be aware OF the great rise
in the price Of paper Of all kinds. But
if readers are not, newspaper publishers
are, seeing that they are called upon to
pay fifty and sixty per cent, more for
paper than they were six months ago
The truth is that the material for max
ing paper is, for explainable reasons,
extremely scarce, and we would sug
gcst, to every one the wisdom, not to
say the duty, of carefulness in the use
of paper Of all kinds. Waste paper
now commands very high price, and
should not be used for kindling fires
and other such porposes.-The same
economy should be shown in the mat
ter Of rags, fragments Of cotton, &c. i
all will economiz+ in these respects, tht
effect Of it will be very sensibly and
advantageously felt.
