A Word for Newspapers.

We clip the following from the New
York Tribune. Ii is true, and we COM
mend 1t to every one who has an inter-
est where he resides:
Nothing IL more common than To
hear people talk OF what they pay news
papers for advertising, ETC., ms 50 much
given to charity. Newspapers by en-
hancing the value of property In their
neighborhood, and giving the localities
in which they are published reputa-
ton abroad, benefit all such, particular
~ ii they are merchants or real estate
owners, thrice the amount yearly Of the
meager euIn they pay for their support.
Besides every public spirited citizen has
a laudabte pride in having o paper of
which he is not ashamed, even III he
should pick 1t up In New York or
Washington.
"a good looking, thriving sheet helps
property, gives character to the locality,
and i;i many respects il desirable pub
lie convenience. IL from any cause the
matter in the local or editorial columns
SHOULD not be up to your standard. do
mot cast II aside and pronounce IL good
for nothing until you are satisfied that
there has been no more labor bestowed
upon II than IL paid for. Ii you want
good reliable sheet il must 10 supported.
And II must not be supported in o spiy-
1t of charity either, but because YOU
feel q necessity TO support il. The To-
cal press ia the power that moves tise
people"

THEN AND Now. Those who mar
ried from impulse with inconsiderate
haste rather than rom well tried and
fond affection, frequently experience "A
great disparity between the feelings of
the honeymoon. and those that are two
or three years after marriage. This
difference WAS most aptly illustrated
very recently by the remarks of lady
not one thousand miles from this place,
who was overheard conversing with
her husband after they had gone to bed.
Said she, when we were first married,
yon would tell me to put my little foot
les down with yours and get them warm,
but now. when i touch one of my Set
