We do not like TO dun, and our
readers will bear in mind that it is a
newspaper luxury we seldom indulge
in, in fact our published terms should
preclude tho necessity Of such indul-
gence, but local, "by courtesy" habit,
prevalent among all printers, moro
especially those in the rural districts,
has induced a laxity with home GUS
toners, whereby we are just now the
sufferers. To those who fail to "come
down" ''on presentation" and more
especially on several presentations,
who, perhaps imagine that we are in
danger of becoming suddenly wealthy,
because we have sought in our bust
ness to keep pace with the improve
ments of the locality, we recommend
a careful consideration of the follow
ing from the Utica Herald, and after
wards a decent consideration of our
requirements.
Within three years the cost of white
paper has been trebled and many
other expenses have been moro than
doubled. In the meantime the charges
have hardly increased 80 per cent
1t is stated on the best authority, that
the capitabinvested in newspaper Off
ces in New York pays no profit what
ever, and not one-third of the city
journals are now earning current ex-
penses. No wonder, therefore, that
the weaker papers in various parts of
the country are dropping off through
exhaustion. In the strongest estab-
lishments thrift and foresight and
hard work can alone bridge over the
interval until the expenses Of publica-
ton can be reduced.

THE DRAFT.

Quite as favorable progress has been
made thus far in filing the quota for
this city as could be expected under
the circumstances, and there is no
doubt the number can be fully made
up, if a proper effort is made during
the few days which remain before
the draft takes place. Money is
what is wanted and we cannot too
strongly urge upon our citizens the
absolute necessity of furnishing the
necessary material aid" to clear us
from a conscription which would not
only result disastrously to many of
those upon whom the unfortunate So
lection will fall, but would, Of necessi-
ty, paralyze business and damage the
interests and feelings of all concerned.
Better any reasonable sacrifice by all
than that few should suffer who
perhaps of all will be the least able to
bear the burthen Viewed in strictly
business and humanitarian light it is
a duty incumbent upon all citizens,
whether liable or exempt, as well as
aliens whose interests are identified
with us, to aid in final and efficient
effort to avoid the dire calamity of
draft.

KILLED By CIRcULAR.-1hese nc
counts of accidents by means of circu-
lar saws so generally used in mills
along the river, are as frequent, and
the results almost as fatal, in proper
ton to the number engaged in run
Mug them, as are the accounts and
results of the great battles in the
south and southwest Every day we
hear Of some new case of manning,
or killing by horrid mutilation, and
every day the same sickening expla-
nation, 'carelessness." Somewhere
there is lack of that iron discipline
which should always prevail in war
or mechanics in the presence of ex-
treme peril, or we certainly should
not have so many distressing casuaH-
ties to record.
There is blame, too, somewhere,
whether it rests most with master or
man is not for us to decide, it is
enough for us to say that if any pos
siblo precaution with either is neg
lected it is a criminal neglect. We
have diverged, however, though we
hope not unproftably, from the
straight line of our narrative.
William Chatterton, a young man
hailing from Napanee, c. W., in the
employ of Messrs. Fisher & Lee of
this city, met with his death on Sat
urday last, about 6 p. NJ, at their
steum saw and stave mill, Sd ward, in
the following horrid manner: He
stepped in front of the carriage facing
the large circular, stopped to clear
something away from the front of the
saw, and in so doing took hold of the
bar by which the carriage is started,
probably to steady himself, the mo-
ton threw out the gearing, and the
carriage starting, at once forced him
on to the saw, which instantly severed
his right leg few inches below the
hip joint. Through the presence of
mind of some of tho workmen the
flow of blood was at once staunched
and he did not then faint; the wound
was afterwards dressed by DIR. Far
rand but there was little hopo in such
a case, and after being removed to his
boarding house the sufferer died in q
very short time.
He was young man Of good hab-
its, and though comparative stran-
gor was well respected; as general
thing, too, he was very careful about
tho saw, his avocation being that of
softer" ono having charge of the
Carriage gearing which regulates the
Of the lumber cut.
