To Our Patrons.

One Of the effects Of the war has been 10 place
business generally on q cash basis. This Is as
true Of the newspaper publishing business as OF
any other We are compelled not only 10 pay
an enoru ously increased price for the paper and
ali other msterial used in the publication Of the
HERALp, as well as for the labor bestowed upon
:, hut also 10 pay the cash for them as we 60
~ Sapt ourselves 10 this state Of things, We
,., 'more rigidly than heretofore upon
y also adopting the cash down sys-
~. 's'iile' their papers. Many OF them

II no longer, The sums due us, sc, oAid but
sdeied, are small and can be easily must
Their aggregate amount lie large and ",
nave 70 meet oar heavy cash OUTLAWS.
We therefore announce, positively, to the pat
rons Of the Weekly HERALD, that on the first Of
January the nance Of oil subscribers who shall
then be in arrears more than one year for the
paper, viii be stricken from our subscription
books and measures taken 10 collect what is due.
And
I'd That ar the first Of February next, no
paper will he seht from this Office that il not paid
for.
Our object, it viii be SEEM, is to adopt, after |
fair notice, the adyat ce pay system for our pa |
per The system has prevailed in all the city |
newspaper establishments for long time; there |
is no reason Why it should not here, and it is,
at all events, the only system on which news

find il the easiest system for themselves, and 1t
will require no alignment 10 show them that
while We are compelled TO pay cash down for
what we teId them, We must have cash down in

We have lad occasion 10 know that our sub
srribers are all sensible people, and we are there
fore confident that they will at once see the
justice and ecessity of the foregoing announce
ment, and continue to patronize and sustain
their State paper with the lberaity that has
characterized them in the past, and for which
we thank them.

The circumstances of the detection
and arrest of s. b. Davis, keeper for a
time OF the Andersonville, Ga, prison.
are thus given in the Cincinnati Com
mercial of the 18th; 10
"A young soldier-Archibald Parker,
Of the 10th Illinois cavalry, only Is
years of age-detected him on a train
going from Toledo to Newark. The SOL
der had been prisoner at Anderson
vile, and recognized his rebel friend.
Approaching him, he said is not this
Mr.. S. B. DavisF No, sir; my name is
Cummings Don't you live in Georgia.
NO sir; live in Canada. Here is my
passport and the suspected man drew
forth paper, having the appearance OF
an official passport giving the bearer,
Willoughby Cummings, permission to
go into the United States, except the in
surgent States. The soldier was not
satisfied but did not press his INQUIRIES
further just then. Cummings invited
him out to take drink, at the next
station, when he said: You certainly
are the man who had charge of the rebel
prison at AnderSonyille. Cummings
protested that he was not; but the SOL
der kept close watch of hin.
AT the next station he founu a train
OF cars waiting, on which were a m, M
Der OF soldiers. He went over to them
and said, Boys, were any of you prison
ers at Andersonville, Georgia g Some
Of them replied that they were. Well
