laugh at us and call us fool If we were obliged
to suspend, simply because we did not charge
enough. The people of the county are willing
to sustain paper and are ready to pay for 1t a
sum sufficient to give its publisher good living
They will not pay us, however. more than we
ask, and so. in order to get a paying price, we
must ask it. We propose, therefore, to charge
$3.50 in advance, and at the rate of 300 per

We are not alone in this advance in price. 9th.

to pay in advance. Circumstances over which

Our subscribers can have till the middle of July
to settle arrears at the old rates, after which
