A Word to our Delinquent Sub.
geribprs.

We have been liberal with our sub
seribers in respect TO the time of
payment, being entirely satisfied if
the subscription was paid within the
year, not asking the amount in ads
vance. And it isa very poor nan
indeed who cannot at some time in
a year be able TO pay the small sum
Of the subscription price FOR our pa
per, and when our subscribers let
their accounts run over from one TO
two years, on the plea Of not being
able 70 pay, we are strongly inclined
TO think that 1t is not so much Ina>
bility to pay, hat a total disregard
Of the moral duty Of every man to
pay his debts. We have many SUBJ
scribers who are more than q year
in arrear for subscription, aud we
have time aud again duuned them
TO no effect, and We simply regret
that our people are SO improyidenI
and extravagant that many of them
are too poor to pay their printer
bill. We do not mean this article
for that class of our subscribers Wit
pay up within the year for their sub
seription, using their %conyenienc.
whether they pay at the beginning
middle or end of their time oil sub
scription, but we do mean it 70
those who let their subscription m
over one year, and our books sho'

The crop prospects IN this county
arc not very d%atteriug. The late
spring has greatly retarded opera
tons and the extremely bad and
raining weather Of the past ten days
has put the young crop, and all OF 1t
is barely out ofthe ground, in a very
dangerous position as the grass Is
making active headway and the
farmers unable to strike a single
lick to stop It. II VIC can have two
or three weeks Of warm dry weather
the crop can be put in good condi.
ton and the prospect will be good
but if the wet weather continues the
