GIVE THE PRINTERS FAIR PLAY.-we have
a piece of advice which we wish to impress
firmly and indelibly upon the public mind
and that is, to give the printers fair play. Do
not forget that it costs something to puff as
well as to advertise, and never sponge up
on aprinter in any way whatever. 1t is
the printers ink that makes nine-tenths of
our fortunes; it takes money to buy ink,
type and paper, and yet, after all this, few are
the thanks the printer gets. Give the prin-
ter fair play, and give up all hopes ofgratui-
tous putting, &c. Dan1 Webster was ''mighty
near right when he remarked of the press:
"Small is the sum required to patronize .
newspaper; amply rewarded is its patron.
care not how humble and unpretending the
gazette which he takes, it is next to impossi-
BILE to fill it without putting into itsomething
that is worth the subscription price"

RAT TERRIER LoST.-On Wednesday
pup, about three months old, strayed away
from the house of Capt. S. Fl. Jeffords THE
Temple Buford place. and he has advertised
for it, offered rewards, and done everything
he could to find it, simply because it was a
pet of his little daughter. He now offers
ttrenty dollars to any one who will find it and
bring it to his house. 1t seems to us that
this offer is enough to set one half the boys
in town on hunt for it. What boy or girl
will win the Twenty Dollars

On DIT.-There are rumors afoat of much
dissatisfaction existing in legal circles in
relation to the appointment ofM. Price, Esq,
to the position of Register in Bankruptcy for
this district. AS the appointment was
doubtless secured by right ''loyal" means,
We are unable to see what objections can be
made By any ofthe "loyal." The gentlemen
of the long robe, however, have penchant
for brains, and seem to think that the son of
His Majesty is not troubled with an extra
quantity of that somewhat rare and valuable
article.-Darenpo7t True Radical.

ORIGIN OF THE PRINrER's DEvIL.-W hen
Aldus Manutius set up in business as prin-
ter at Venice, he came in possession of q lit
tie negro boy. This boy was known over the
city as the little black devil, who assisted
the mysterious bibliofactor, and some of the
ignorant persons believed him to be none 9TH
er than the embodiment of Satan, who helped
Aldus in the prosecution of his profession.
One day, Manutius, desiring TO dispel this
strange hallucination by publicity, displayed
the young limp to the poorer classes. Upon
this occasion he made this short but very
characteristic speech -"Be it known to Ven
ice, that l, Aldus Manutius, printer to the
Holy Church and Doge, have this day made
public exposure of the printers deci7. All
those who think he is not flesh and blood may
come and pinch him."
