pied is only one inch and quarter.
The standard fixed Is, the space Of 100
words, or fraction thereof, In printing,
and this space is increased or lessened
according to the size of the type used.
The advertiser pays, and the printer
receives pay, for the space used in the
paper, but the printer must calculate
the space charged for, according to his
type. II he uses large type he gives
greater space than ii he uses small type.
He should not use either kind Of type
and charge for the other, but for the
space occupied In printing 100 words,
or fraction thereof, in the kind Of type
used in setting up the advertisement
The rule Is very tair one, aud just to
both publisher and patron.

set and sunrise, of any unginned or
seed cotton sold, exchanged, bargained

Sec. =. That whoever shall in the
night time, or between sunset and sun
rise deliver or receive any unginned or

changed, bargained for, bartered, or in
any other manner disposed of, shall on
conviction, be punished by fine or im.
prisoned, or both at the discretion OF
the Court.

noon to witness the launch of Capt. J.
w. Blanks new steamer John Wilson
from the ways at ID. 8. Barnore's ship
yard at Jefersonville. Quite large
crowd witnessed the scene, most of
whom were ladies, and many Of them
''mustered courage" enough to launch
upon her. She Is u beautifully model
sod ssSe lett the ways amid the cheers
OF those on board and those who re-
manned on shore. It was certainly
one of the prettiest launches we ever
beheld. When she struck the water
She gracefully yielded to the "pressure"
and righted up, showing her beautiful
form and model upon the bosom OF the
river rs gracefully as a Hoosier girl
bowling to her partner in the mszv
dance at country picnic. She was
lowed back to the shore, where she
VAL be finished, when she will start to

END OF VOLUME XII.


With this number the TELEGRAPH
concludes the. twelfth year since its
establishments. 1t was with many mis-
givings and many predictions Of failure
the publication was commenced, and
the twelve years. journey has been In
no sense y smooth one. Eight of thest.
years have been consumed in fighting
for existence against the extinct Rsadi-
cal printing law monopoly, leaving
only four years for fair competitive
business. But through 1t all we have
been able TO give expression to our
opinions and to those of The people
; who thought and felt with us. Our
remuneration has not been great, not
half what It would be II our patrons
had been prompt In their payments,
aud were the whole in hand We should
still have nothing to boast Of. We bid
the Twelfth Year q most affectiOnate
adieii, wondering as it departs what
stores Of good or i'll its successor will
bring for as all. ~ 4, e..
