THE DELINQUENT SUBSCRIBER.

One day last week, while sad an dreary
AS we wenaed, weak and weary,
Across the unsWept floor;
We heard, at first, gentle tapping,
Then it became an earnest rapping,
At our sanctum door.
"Come in" we said, while yet he pom
dered,
And in silence we still wondered E
What for us could be in store;
Then, the door-bol5 gently turning,
In ne walked Our cheek was burning
Thoughts of crimson gore.
Are you the man who does the wri-
ting?"
What word will rhyme with this but
fighting?
Quickly thought we DER and o'er.)
Sir. we are" we gently told him,
to the boys to hold him,
If he tried to beat us sore.
'"rhen you'll please give me credit
Opposite that little debit,
For four dollars more.
| like your paper, and will take it
AS long as you will strive to make it
AS good as it has been before.''
We jumped! He dolged! Thus we
missed him,
Or we surely would have kissed him,
No matter if the boys did roar;
So seldom treated in this manner,
We felt inclined to sing hosannah
Only this and nothing more.

FALSE ECONOMY.

A sensible remark was made by an OBJ
serving gentleman who dropped in upon
us this week, to the effect that most men
looked squarely at dollars and cents in
taking paper. That they cared not what
the paper advocated or from what section
it came. so it was cheap. The Southern
people were always disposed to ignore
home enterprise and patronize Northern
papers and receive abuse in RETURN Vi
enna Sentinel.
While we can not ascribe to the
general application of these remarks,
we can readily testify that they &C
curately illustrate the foible of at
least one citizen of this Parish, a
resident Of the eighth ward. This
party referred to visited Donaldson
vile not many weeks ago, and in
the course of a casual conversation
asked to be informed relative to a
matter of local interest that had
been fully reported in the Chief a
month before. We suggested that
it might be advantageous to become
"a subscriber to his Parish paper, but
he demurred on account of the price,
saying that he was unwilling to give
50 a year for the Chief while the
weekly New York Day Book is sent
him for 81. This pennywise indi-
vidual, for the sake of saving a pal
try dollar, was willing to remain in
ignorance of events transporting near
home and trust to haphazard to pro
cure information of real interest and
benefit to him. Men of his way of
thinking don't consider the reasons
why great metropolitan journals,
with daily and weekly editions the
latter little more than mere reprints
of reading matter contained in the
former-can be supplied at less cost
than the less pretentious rural week
lies that print hundreds Of copies
where their city contemporaries
issue thousands and tens of thous-
ands. Neither do these nearsighted
people appear to comprehend the
fact that useful article like a home
paper may compensate many times
over for its subscription price, and a
larger journal, published at dis
lance, be less desirable at half the
rate.
Encourage home enterprise-sup-
port the papers that advocate your
nearest rights and defend your best
interests-give them circulation and
advertising patronage equal to those
Of Northern journals, and they will
furnish an adequate return in quality
and quantity of reading matter, al
prices quite as reasonable as can be
afforded elsewhere onaldsonville
