NEMsPAPEIs BORROWERS.

NEWSPA PER- BORROWERS.
In oVery community, there arc persons who
obtain the mass Of thoir general information
through the medium Of borrowed newspurcrs-a,
their nci3hbors' cxpenso. Somo Of thsso Jorrow
from tho Post Offices, and complaint comes 20 tho
Office Of publication from Subscribers Of failure to
get their popcrs; (and hero We would admonsh
tho managers Of country Post Offices espocally.) }
Others practicing what they seem TO think lc-
climate iiconse, send to their ncighbors to bor-
row. Tho whole practice is very Objectionable.
A newspaper costs but very litlle moncy--.vcry
littlo, in comparison with tho amounts many of
these very people spend fnolshly or in dissipa-
tion-and no ono who cares for his own interest,
or tho interest Of others, or who would DO moro
than n blank among his fellows, can live withon
one. No money spent in u family pays woll
We commend the following, in relation to this
matter, which we take from tho Charleston
Courier, to tho consideration Of all concerned:
Ever since tho publication Of the first news.
papor the world has been bothered with neigh.
bory people, who borrow tho newspapers, and
ever since that timo the victims OF these neigh.
borly people have been devising means Of rid
ding themselves Of the nuisance. The method
resortcd to by n subscriber of tho Courier, re
think, is good ore. nnl can scarcely fail to
have sNlntary effect. For many months our
friend wms trouLlc, by IL borrowing ncishbor,
and for many months bc lorc his nlic;ivn with
Christian iortindc. AT length he became des
porato, and finally hi: upon IT.. fD,i.wng expo.
dcut: ltc camo to tho "Cuuricr oilicas,i.d order
ed the D"iiy Go"ricr s,nt to lis nr;ghb"r This
was done, and at tho expiration of u month the
nci.hbor aforesaid called at this nfcc. and stat
ed that the paper was beIuS sent to his house,
when lle WAS not subscriber. Iic was told thnt
Mr---uhc ncigibor from whom ho had been IN
the habit of borrowing the rapcr) had ordered il
sent to him. md that tho subscription price
would be paid by him (Mr.---). Tho eyes Of
tho bore were "lcncl, ard that mnn hns since
been IL steady subscriber o! tho "Couricr.'' IIo
never again borrowed n paper.
