What We Like,

The following, from an exchange, is
so exactly suited to all county towns,
that We publish it for the benefit OF
whom ii may fit. II it pinches
you, don't blame us for it, but give the
exchange" Hail Columbia:
W. like to see a man refuse TO take
his local paper, and all the time sponge
on his %neighbors tor the reading OF 1t.
W. like to hear a man complain
when we ask him to subscribe for his
home paper. that he takes more papers
than he reads now, and then 60 around
and borrow his neighbours, or loaf
about him until he has gathered all the
news from it.
We like to see a man run down his
own paper AS not worth taking, and
every now and then beg the editor for
II favor in the editorial line, about some
pet object.
We like to see q mechanic or mer-
chant refuse to advertise in his home
paper, and try to get a share Of the
trade which u newspaper brings ~
town.
But above all things, we like to see
one Of our rich, misery men, who can
not pay two dollars tor his local paper
always manage t he around in time to
read the paper, ut the expense OF a
TREND not worth a tenth part Of what
he h:msel. is. 1t looks so economical,
thrifty and progressive.
