 Winter Residences in FSorida.

 We Must HdUe N!-There are few things connecttdwith the publication of 6 newspaper, that are absolutely necessary to it's existence and amongst them is nothing of so much importance as money. If we continue to publish THE NEWS, we must have money to do it with, and we canno, have it unless those who owe us for their subscription for their advertising and their job printing, pay us. These sums, in almost every instance, are small, but their aggregate amount is large, and amply sui ficient to enable us to pay our bills. which every week are due, and which every week must be paid. Do those who owe us need reminding again personally through the mails, in the form of bill? It seems as though there could be no necessity for that but if there is we must practice economy in sending those bills, and use postal cards, which will cost but one cent each, where a regular bill, envelope and three cents post. age will cost five cents each. Every sub scriber knows by his date attached to ev. cry paper he gets, whether he is in arrears or not. but if he needs an especial remind CT of the fact, we we must do it on the postal card plan. We have waited patient. ly, and expect to wait patiently for these small sums, but where it costs five cents every week to publish newspaper, and only three cents are received to do it with, the poetry and romance are soon brought to focus Come now, don't throw this aside with no further attention after read Ing it, for the reason you owe us such a small amount, because if everybody does SO. we shall get no money, and some bright morning when you are looking for THE NEWS to tell you all about somebody's Graphic balloon that has sailed over your house and frightened your unpleasant neighbours children to death. it won't come with the welcome news, because there will be no money to buy ink to print it with, and that would be very bad, you know.

This is why he laments so pathetically, that so many of his sex see their earnings placed upon the persons of their wives. 1t is plain to be seen that should he ever become Benedict bis tender feelings will not be wounded by seeing many of his earnings adorning his better half, as in all probabil- ity that person (heaven pity the maiden who makes this myth realitY) will be obliged to resort to her needle or wash board to clothe herself and perhaps feed hSna He seems convinced that am ia candidate for matrimony or elopement :" An well, MT.
