ABBOTT J Poztell. jv., -. —1 r DAKIEN, (O.t.J MONDAY, JULY 12, 1819. | To the Printers of the United States, OENTLEMEN —In presenting a list of new prices of types, some explanatory remarks may be useful. The former prices were fixed during a period in which the raw materials were dear, and not easily to be procured, and it is presumed that they had some claim to be considered moderate, as in 1812. Type were more than three per cent lower in Philadel phia than in London; and no advance was made on those prices, during the lale w&r, although existing circum stances w'ould have justified the measure. It was con sidered that an advance would he an actual loss to the printers, as the competition in the printing business had, before that period, arrived at such a point, that the public were supplied with printing, at nearly the mini mum; audtalso, that it was probable the prices ot types would (jlptiime some time after the return of peace,’ and recompense for any advantage that was given up* This has taken place. For some time past, types have been lowered in val ue, but not in price. They have been sold on long anil freqifently uncertain credit, w'hich produces, to the sel ler ass the effects of reduction of price whilst to the prin ter who pays it is of comparative little benefit. All the advantage is in favor of thow who promise , but do not perform, as in truth they get types for nothing, and the solvent printers pay for them. Another objectjMni to this mode of reducing price is, that it absorbs the seller’s funds, and, no matter how industrious or frugal he may be, subjects him to all the inconveniences of pc'erty. Men who possess talents, economy, industry and hon or, will sometimes lack money. The characters who have just claims to those attributes, will rarelv be at a loss for friends, and will enter on business w i*K a m,ore favorable prospect of success, when assisted by a nrod erate, than by an extended credit, w hich is equally w ith in the reach of a rival, who, with an ardent disposition for speculation and adventure, may have but doubtful claims to reputation for prudence. In order to leave no ground for complaint, it is to be understood that all purchasers, since the finst of April, who comply with the new terms, wdl be entitled to ben efit by the new prices. Presuming on the long intimacy which has subsisted between you, gentlemen, and this establishment, I re quest you will give this an insertion in your papers. Your’s respectfully, JAMES RONALDSON.
