Those who read newspapers and
other periodicals are properly div
ided into two Ciasses-to wit: Gust
omers and patrons. They have,
according TO their different char
acters and pretensions, ranged
themselves under these two heads,
and it is natural that We should
feel sensible OF the distinctive pc.
culiaYities OF each. Under the de.
nomination of customers all those
are included who, when they pay
for q paper, expect the worth oi
their money as promised in the
terms Of sub description. This Obliga-
ton being fulfilled, they have no
more idea that a orisi,estowed

ally dishonest II is to customers
that the publishers Of books and
newspapers, like ell other produ.
GERS, owe their sqks>ort, and it

they advertise TO the extentilof a
few doilaS ID bin sheet, they have
sacrificed to oil the gods at once,
whether they pay the bill or not !
