The bill appropriating 81, 100000 to
aid the Centennial Exhibition at Phila'
delphia was passed by the House of Rep
resentatives last Tuesday by a vote of
LAG yeas to 100 nays. We are glad
enough, Democrats voted for the bill to
secure its passage. Among those who
voted against the bill was the Represen::
tative from this district, John r. Goodin.
We presume he would give as a reason
for opposing the appropriation that it
was unconstitutional, and not that he
voted against it because the House had
refused to make jeff. Davis eligible to
the Presidency.

friends have called upon US and assured
us that such support can be secured rs
will justify the continued publication Of
The REGISTER. Ifso, it will 60 on.]
With this number of THE REGISTER
the publishers announce its suspension
During the nexttwo weeks we will issue
a half sheet and send copy to each of
our subscribers for the purpose of COM
pleting the pabliestiou Of our legal ad-
vertisemerts. We regret that it has
become necessary to do this, but the
support that the paper is now receiving
and q great deal of that is merely the
promise to PAYS not sufficient to meet
the necessary expenses of its publication.
In March 1871. when the present editor
became interested in the publication OF
The REGISTER it had local advertising
patronage of 81 ,625 per year, which has
gradually decreased with every quarterly
settlement. With the commencement
of the year 1875, when the present pub
fishers took charge Of the paper, the local
advertisements amounted to only 5000 a
year; but the chinch bugs, drouth and
grasshoppers had almost caused a famine,
aud we hopedth that with good cTops'would
come a revival Of business and an in
creased patronage 70 our paper. but an
this hope we have been disappointed. A
large number of orr subscribers have
neglected to pay for their paper for last
year, and our local advertising patronage
has run down to only little over $500.
As.there has been a corresponding de.
crease in job printing it is readily seen
that we have about reached the stopping
place.
During the past year some Of oar bust
ness men have advertised liberally-and
we hope our readers will patronize them
acknowledgement all of them with whom
we have had dealings have paid their
bills promptly and cheerfully, for this
we return or thanks. A number of ou'
business nen, however, refuse to adyer'
tise, which they have a right to do, but
#e think jndicious advertising would
help. their business besides assist in sus
.taining a newspaper which is almost
essential to the growth and prosperity o
our town, and we ask them to think ovel
this matter. In . town no larger thar
lola newspaper cannot live unless tn
business men generally support it; ant
the publishers Of a paper should NOT b'
made to feel that they are dependen
upon public charity, for where a pape
is published in the interest of tow
and county, and with = desire to d
justice to all passies, it gives to such
town and community value received TO
all the support it gets.
To those of our Subscribers who hav
paid in advance for this year. and tn
number is very small indeed, we woul
say that unless the present firm Or som
one else resumes the publication Of tn
REGISTER in short time their none
will be refunded. And to those VIII
are owing US on subscription we woul
say that it would be a great accommod.
ton to US if they would pay np'immed
ately.
