HOW Is THE TIME TO SUBSCRIBE
OUR TERMS.


There is great deal of talk among our CO.
te;nporaries about the "great rise in the price
ofpaper," and the necessity fora corresponding
rise in the price of newspapers. We do not
agree with our friends As to the last propositisn
1t is true that paper has gone up frightfully-
fly per cent. at least, and is 'still on its way
up" But what of that? Publishers have for
years had $ good time with low priced paper,
AMI made large profits; and now that times ha We
changed they should pay the enhanced price for
paper without whining, and without attempting
to get it back outof their subscribers. Them
crease in the price of paper will make differ
cnce of tens of thousands of dollars to US year
"; but we shall not increase the price of the
LEDGER. That will remain asit is. Wecsn f.
ford it. The retail price will continue to be four
cents; and our club terms will remain IS they
always have been. Onr subscribers have stuck
to US when paper was cheap; and we do not in
tend to increase our rates to them now when it
is dear. cit is poor rule that won I work both

In fact, our contributors willsend Us from eek
to week much more matter than we can posi-
bly, use, so that we shall always h ave fresh and
superintendent supply from which to select THE

The LEoeER's great success is owing to the
fact that we spare no expense in getting up the

The exalted reputation of its contributors, the
practical and invariably pure and healthy char
acter of all its articles the care which is taken
that not even one offensive word shall appearin
its columns, and the superiority of its Tales and
Sketches, have gained for the New YoRK LED
