X Let Us Ki,oas It.-If subscribers to the NEWS do not receive their papers regularly and in good condition, we hope they will inform us that the trouble may be remedied, Two or three cases have been reported to us recently from out of town, where pa pers were badly torn at the office of dis tribution.
 Pertunse,Ies A. N. Negus of this village has just received 8 large stock of theljustly celebrated perfumery, manufac- tured by Alfred Wright of Rochester, N. Y.

The cattle, tools and everything except the hay were saved.

The publishers have doubtless discovered that the newspaper business is one of suct close competition that unless most favora ply located the most able business manage ment fails to make it profitable.
