RnfiHg on Credit.

The practice of buying on credit the
necessary articles of the household is
fatal to good economy. The house
keeper has always to pay cash. The
tradesman must have interest money,
for man will never, in business
community, be willing, and is seldom
able if he were willing, to forego it.
To the ordinary cash prices of the ar
ticle he therefore adds the interest
which may accrue during the time that
credit is allowed. This, however, is
not all. There must be a premium
exacted by the dealer for the risk he
runs in trusting his goods to that class
of more or less dangerous customers
who never pay ready money. Even
the most honestly disposed of these
are often unsafe debtors, for they are
generally such as are imprudentenough
to anticipate their incomes, and to
overrun them in expenditures. The
credit system, moreover, is temptation
to unnecessary purchases. There is a
sort of check in the sight and touch
of the hard won money to the DISPOSE
ton to dispose of it lightly. On the
other hand there is something in the
facility of credit that, removing as il
does the disagreeable necessity of pay
ment to a vague future, very seductive
to the buyer, who can crafty his love
of possession with momentary sense
at any rate, that its qualification cost;
him nothing. There is no such cheaI
and cautious purchaser as cash.

To DELINQUENTs.-During the past
twelve months, owing to the excessive
stringency of the times and the search
ty of money, occasioned by crop fail
ures and other causes, We have been
very lenient with our debtors, and now
have on our books quite a number of
subscribers who are in arrears, and
some of them considerably so. In ad-
dition to sending the paper on credit,
We have, according to the newspa-
per postage law, to prepay the postage,
which makes us carry a double load,
and adds quite an item to the drain
age of our already depleted treasury.
No man, who will reflect a moment,
can expect us to furnish our paper
upon such terms.
In Justice TO ourselves, we can no
longer do this, and on the LIST of Jan
nary 1876, we will drop the names of
all who have not paid up to, or beyond,
that time, and in future will adhere to
the cash in advance system. Know
ing the difficulty Of raising money dur
ing the past year, especially among the
farming classes, we have continued to
send the paper to many beyond the
time paid for, and now we ask them in
return TO pay up the old score and re.
new their subscriptions, paying in ad'
vance. NEBLETT & GRANT.

II was only one customer that the
surlv man snubbed. The customer
asked for ten cents worth of wire. The
surly man said something to him about
the trouble of cutting off so small a
piece. and sneered at him for being
such a customer. He cut il off from
the roll and the customer who had
intended to buy some hinges and bolts,
and two or three locks, which might
have amounted in all to five dollars,
conluded he would deal at some other
store for the rest. He paid for his ten
cents worth Of wire, and pushed on to
the next hardware store. The surly
man did not even bid him good day.
The one customer seemed very
small affair to the dealer, because he
wanted to purchase such a limited
amount of merchandise. He forgot
that man does not ask in one breath
for all he wants. He forgot that the
small customer of to-day may be the
large customer of tomorrow. He for
got that the man who is shabbily treat
! ed at the store seldom returns to it
unless for something which cannot b'
purchased elsewhere. He forgot thu
influence which each customer carrie
with him Tor good or i'll.
Courtesy brings custom and ifcus
/ tom brings success in business. court
esq must not be neglected. A mai
who is politely treated at a store 1
very apt to come again. A man wit
is rudely dealt with is still more apt t
tell his friends of it, and to warn then
against the place.

The Jackson Clarion announces that
the Republican State executive COM
mittec of Mississippi was in session the
day before. and as result laid the
foundation for one more vigorous CT
fort TO secure the State government
and the vote of the State for their
party in 1876. The Clarion says
that to accomplish this, they count
largely on the use of United States
troops, to be obtained through the
agency of Governor Ames, and think
that the Washington authorities will
incline their ear 10 an application OF
that kind for carrying the Presidential
election. much more readily than for
saving from deserved defeat wretch
ed carpetbag State administra-
tioa. whose follles and crimes nave
brought discredit on the Republican
party. 1t is evident that the great
| fight for the permanent overthrow Of
Radicalism in Mississippi is to be made
next year, aud the fact admonishes lis
opposers that they must fortify every
stronghold they have gained-lmprovs
all the advantages derived from thu
November victory-make no mistakes
I and stand united as one man. The
Democracy OF Mississippi must obey
the suggestions of their State executive
committee, and preserve their district

tions. No matter what no-party
organs may say, or how they sneer. 1
the Democracy of all the States woult
win in 1876, they must organize an.

THE SOUTH IN CONGRESS.
A Move to Bury Dead Issues out of
Sight.

The ex-Coufederates, with the aid
of those Southern Congressman who
took no active part, civil or military,
in the war, and of their Northern
Democratic allies, are bent on securing
three things, viz:
l. The funding of the war debts of
the States which were in rebellion, at
4 per cent. interest, and reduction of
the interest on the national debt Of the
United States to 4 per cent.
,. The pensioning Of sick and
wounded Confederate soldiers, and of
the widows and children of those who
fell in defense of the Lost Cause"
:. The Encouragement OF the staf
on the National flag on St. Andrew S
cross, as the thirteen stars represent
ing the Confederate States were ar
ranged on the union of the Confeder-
ate flag.
These three propositions are to be
urged, and fight will be made against
the passage of the bill making appro-
priations for the payment of pensions
to Union soldiers, widows and orphans,
unless the Southern pensioners can be
placed on the rolls.

The tramp nuisance has become so
intolerablc in Pennsylvania that J con.
yention of poor directors is to be held
in Altoona, in January, to discuss
methods Of prevention. The best pre-
ventive of trampisn is to require the
tramps to perform hard labor on the
public works as soon as they get in a
town or city. They will then earn their
living and become productive citizens.
The soup-house has done much to de-
yelop trampism in its worst form.

Grant Knows Better.

The statement that Bristow is about
to leave the Cabinet seems to be found
ed entirely upon the rumor that cold
ness has sprung up between him and
the President on account of Babcock.
There is reason to believe that this as
sumption has not good grounds. as the
President has not been SO impolItic as
to place himself in antagonism to Sec
rotary BristOw, who has been making
such vigorous and successful fight on
the whisky ring. The shrewdest sense
teaches that the President, 10 this mat
ter, has no alternative but to support
the Secretary to the full extent Of his
powers, and without regard to his per-
sonal inclinatlons.

K,o,,er stones Feeble Remarks.

From the Christian In;elligencer.
Mr.. Stone, 81 well known and excellent
Christian gentleman, belonging to one
of the Murray Hill churches, in New
York city, was up in the country one
summer, and learning that an evening
prayer meeting was in progress ut the
village church, walked in and took seat
in the back part of the room
The brother in the chair conducting
the meeting, Observing the stranger, left
his seat, and coming to Mr, Stone, said
to him:
What is your name?
"Mv name is Stone
"Wherc are you from?'
81 ana from the city OF New York
care you ore of the Lords people?'
IL nope that am answered Mr..
Stone, with becoming humility. The
presiding genius, satisfied with the an
Swcr of his catcchism, returned to his
elevated seat, and at the end of the hymn
rose and said:
"Wil Brother Stone, from New York,
favor us with a few remarks?
Mr.. Stone, willing to do what he could
made few practical observations to the
best of his ability. No sooner had ne
sat down than the presiding elder rose
and said:
evil Brother Stone, of New York,
ask the Lord to bless his feeble re-
marks"
Undismaycd by this commentary on
his sp.prh Mr.. Stone offered pArVCr, and
the meetin. proceeded as usual.
