MONEY MUST BE HAD.
Some of our subscribers are so far behind that we begin to fear they never will come up. We want to lay in a winter supply of paper, and must have money to do it with. Paper is a cash article, and must be paid down for. Now the little long due from our subscribers would put us in funds, and injure nobody. We have earned it and must have it. Those living near, can call and pay, and those whose papers are sent by mail can pay to the postmasters, who are all authorized to act as our agents.
