The Enormous Advance in the Price
of Printing Paper.

The price of printing paper has run
up enormously. Within the past three
months it has advanced nearly one hun
dred per cent. This is grieyous hard
ship upon newspaper publishers, au-
thors and all others who deal in Prin-
ter's ink. The paper manufacturers are
reaping rich harvest, but the large
class to whom we have referred, and
the numerous persons who make their
living BY the employment which
they have obtained in this way,
are great sufferers. There Is
but one way in which relief can be
afforded. and it ought to be applied at
once. 1t is to break up the monopoly
enjoyed by the paper manufacturers and
to pass the bill now before Congress to
admit paper and all articles that enter
into Its manufacture, free Of duty. In
order that the voice Of the Press Asso-
citation Of Mississippi may be authora-
lively expressed in favor Of this meas
ure, we would respectfully call
upon r. II. Henry Esq, the Pres
ident Of the State Association to
make an urgent appeal to Congress on
behalf of the bill, and to solicit the
Mississippi delegation 10 give it their
earnest support.
Let the whole press Of the country
speak out, and speak with one united
voice.

A Good Relief Measure.


Mr.. Harkreader, of Lee couny. has
introduced in the House meritorious
bill, which We have printed elsewhere.
1t is designed to secure to debtors
whose property has been sold under ex-
ecution, or foreclosure, the right Of re-
demption within two years b. return
ing TO the purchaser the amount paid by
him. with interest at eight per cent. per
annum. The bill is founded upon two
divine attributes, justice and mercy.
1t does not take from the creditor the
right to collect his debt, nor from
Shylock what is nominated in the
bond;" but it secures TO the unfor-
tunate debtor the opportunity to
recover his property when it has
been sold under the hammer for less
than its value How many poor
debtor who has been compelled by
force of circumstances to mortgage his
home for supplies with which to make
his crop, finds himself at the end Of the
year by stress of an unfavorable sea
son without the means of satisfy
ing it. The exemption law does not
avail to protect it from sale and sacrifice
at the discretion of the creditor for less
than its value; and without an equita-
bic consideration he is compelled to
abandon the roof that gives shelter,
and the soil that affords sustenance, to
his family. Nothing but the most dire
full necessity should induce the head Of
the household to pledge his home. Bet
ter suffer for time for want Of raiment
and better feel the cravings of
hunger, and curb the pride for
vain display, which goes before a
fail, than to risk possession of the free
hold which imparts feeling of indie
pendence for the loss of which nothing
can compensate. But tempted by lien
laws, and desire to CRAFTY the appe-
tite, and not unusually the pride of dis
play, and at times forced by stern ne
cessity, the homestead is staked and
lost 1t is a just and benevolent pro-
vision of law, which under these cir
cumstances, interyenes and places it
within the power Of the debtor to re-
deem his estate, and prevents the light
of hope from utter extinguishment in
his bosom. \ number of the States have
laws of this description upon their statute
books, and we would not envy the fate
of the aspiring legislator who would
refuse the people of this State the priv
ilege of such measure.
