A CALL.

! A CALL.
Aflpersons indebted to the TELEGR4PI
office are hereby called on for payment
4 We find that many are indebted for sub
scription, for advertising and for iol
work And we find too that we are il
need of all our dues, ard all are called 81
for payment. We avail ourself Of this
way Of calling on our debtors because il
would be impracticable to call on all in
any other way, ard even if practicable
it would be altogether too expensive.
We call the attention of orr subscribers
to their names printed on their papers
and the time to which each has made
payment, All, except.a few, whose pa.
pers are sent singly, can see on each paper
the time to which they have made ia =
ment, and each Of these few will soon he
enabled to see the same for themselves on
their papers or their wrappers. Some
will see that they have credit for paying
III advance. Others VIII see that thcy
are indebted, some one, some two, some
three and some -four years. A few OF
these perhaps are indebted because thew
have not been able to pay. Of those who
are able to pay, some are indebted be.
cause they have neglected to pay, others
because they have chosen not to pay, and
others because they act on the principle
OF Keeping the printer out of his pay as
long as they can. All these DELINQUENT
subscribers are doing injustice to us and
to oar advance paying subscribers. And
we appeal to their sense Of right to dc
justice to US, to advance paving subscri.
bers and to themselves, by pa ying up a /.
rears and becoming advance paving sub.
scribtfs.
The same remarks will apply, in most
respects, TO those indebted for ADVERTISING
and job work. A local paper, to live
must have advertising, and have pay fol
It, And those who have ADVERTISING, and
fAil to pay for it, cut off Just an equal
amount Of its life. A paper can live
much better without their advertisipc
than with it without pay for it. .Jo|
work. with pay for it, helps local paper
To 1--we, but without pay. it helps it on to
death There is but little profit and
much outlay on job work, and tho@e wbo
get a month or two credit and take a,
many years to make payment are absorb
ing the LIE Of the paper or business
which gives them credit. All indebted
for advertising and job work are doing
injustice to US and to our paying patrons
equally with non-payipg subscribers
And we appeal to their sense of right tc
90 Justice to us, to our paying patrons
and to themselves, by paying up arrears
ana becoming prompt paying patrons.
BURlALs, CEMETERIES, RIOTS, &C.
We publish this week number of arti
Giles on the above subjects. A short no
ticc published in our absence in relation
to the burial, &c, of Mr. w. j. Sullivan
a: Madison has given rise to number O
communications on that and kindred sub
ljects. AS the subjects are oper, it is bu
fright that all sides should have a fai
hearing. But in giving hearing it i
lexpected that writers will have prope
prospect for the opinions of others, use re
spectful language, and be careful il
| speaking OF the bigotry and supers.itio
Of others not to exhibit bigotry and 81
perstition in themselves. But as all hav
not the gift of seeing themselves as other
sec them ali parties must make due O.
lowance for the self-blindness of eac
; other.
