THE VERMONT TRANSCRIPT.
ST. ALBANS, Friday, Dec. 30, 1864.
To our Subscribers.
We have already announced that the terms of subscription of the Vermont Transcript will be increased on the first day of Jan. 1865, to $2.00 a year, payable in advance and $2.50 when payment is delayed six months. Although this is one dollar less than the price charged by the other paper printed in this county, still the increase is one which we have delayed to make as long as possible, with the vain hope that prices of materials etc. might recede, or at least remain stationary. This increase will not, of course, affect unfulfilled contracts but applies to future business. To all who may wish to pay in advance, the old price will govern until New Year's Day. The marked commendations which we are receiving as to the course of the paper and quality of its matter, encourage us in the belief that this increase—slight to each individual, but in its aggregate important to the publisher—will be most cheerfully met. The Transcript has recently added to its facilities for doing the best kinds of printing, and persons in need of superior typographical work, need no longer go abroad for the supply of their wants.
