Paw as You Go.

One of the most damaging customs chat
has ever cursed any country is the credit sys-
tenn, and more especially is it felt in times
like thoso in which we have lived for the past
few years. If there were needed a single
healthy axiom to be added to the Ten Com
mandments, it should be, "pay as you co.
Debt undermines the principles of individ-
uals and nations. Any man, or any commu-
nifty that rccklessly makes use of the credit
he or it may possess, gives evidence of NOR
al intemperance which, in nino cases out of
ten, is little else than moral turpituds. We
hold that disposition to rush into debt, be-
cause one has the ability SO to do, il an evil
dence of lack Of moral principle. No man
has right to incur an obligation, unless he
can see, or think he sees, the certainty of
possessing the means Of discharging it
The fact that he is able to give security for
the performance of the promise to pay, does
not distract from the serious responsibility
he assumes It is too we'll known that a
very large percentage Of the mortgages given
results in the final loss Of the MORTGAGE of
his entire security pledged; and it follows
that he and his are reduced to penury and
want, and this change is not at all calculated to
improve the moral tone or elevate the moral
sentiments of the sufferers. An observance
of the rule to "pay as you go would prevent
much of the suffering we behold through the
country now.

NeMspaper Law.

Postmasters are required to give advice by
letter when subscriber does not take his pa
per from the office; and give the reason for
it not being taken. Neglecting to doso makes
the Postmaster responsible to the publisher
for payment.
ANY person who takes the paper regularly
from the Post-office, whether he mas subscrib-
ed or not, is responsible for the payment of
the subscription.
"Any one ordering his paper discontinue
must pay all arrcarages, or the publisher may
continue to send it until payment is made,
and collect the whole amount, whether it is
taken from the Office or not
''The Courts have decided that refusing to
take newspaper or periodical from The Post
Office, Or removing and leaving them uncalled
for, is pgin,a .faeie evidence of intentional
