The postage law, which goes into operation lst
of January, 1875, requires prepayment on all
newspapers sent through the mails beyond the
limits of the counties in which they are publish
ed We have, therefore, determined to adopt
the CASH PLAN for all subscriptions While
avoiding the losses, tardy payments and ex-
penses of collection incident to the credit sys-
tenn, we will be required to prepay the postage
The change determined upon WILL therefore,
prove beneficial to both subscribers and publish
er The former will be relieved Of the postage
tax whilst the latter will be enabled to simplify
the operations of his business and to improve
the facilities for conducting it.
No name ,oiU be entered mless tue subScrip-
ton is paid for IN adcance.
During the past few months every subscriber
in arrears has been furnished, through the mails,
with statement Of his account. Many have
responded with remittsnces dscharging their
liabilities and paying in advance for the current
year. We appeal urgently to those who have
not made similar response to do so without
further delay, after the first of January, 1875,
we will commence to discontinue the paper to
those who have not paid in advance. The time
within which all in arrears can close up the bal
ances due and make an advance payment is am
ple and we fatter ourselves that but few names
will be dropped.

WALTHER Won DER FOGELWElDE.
lWnrzburg (Bay. Letter to n. Y. Her,

Iu the cathedral there are curiously pleasant
memories of that sweetest and greatest OF the
miunesingers Of Germany, Walther Won der
Eogelweide, who lived here and sung IN the
cathedral choir some time in the twelfth cen
tury and died and was buried here, leaving TO
keep alive his memory that beautiful bequest
to the birds of which be had sung his long life
through. Up to ten years ago many German
lists believed that Wurzburg was Walther's s
birth place; but this theory has recently been
exploded by the discovery on the Iyrol OF a
peasants homestead called the "Vogelweide
Hof,' where, only few weeks ago, marble
tablet was erected, recording the fact that the
great singer was born shere. But Walther
lived here. Kaiser Frederic Ii. presented him
with small estate in the vicinity as reward
for his services in song tor the empire against
the papacy, and be lived here until his death,
and was buried in the centre OF the Laurence
Garden, connected with the cathedral And
the legend saws that be left in his will sum of
money to be expended every year for food tor
the birds, which were to be fed on the grave
stone marking bis last resting place. True,
some people have denied the authenticity of
the beautiful bequest; but we know that to
this day the school children of the city are
tcasted once year with cakes purchased from
the very fund which Wather bequeathed.
There is beautiful painting in the National
Museum at Munich, representing the sweet
sluger's burial, and among the nourners are
hundreds of teathered songsters, who hover
about the head of their dead freud as he is be-
ing borne to the grave by priests and mobiles
and fair maidens. True, the grave exists no
more, the Laurence Garden is in forlorn co.,
ditioD, and simple gravesone at the side of
the cathedral is the only monument We find to
him in the city 10 day and this was erected by
King Ludwig |, Of Bavaria. A glorious ide
it would be if Wuzburg would restore the
grave 10 the Laurence Garden, and erect an
other tombstone where the birds could gather
to eat the crumbs of Wathers legacy and sing
the praises of their great friend and singer OF
