Min&jfciiUe, September 7— —£ 43 DARIEN, (GA.J MONDAY, SEPTEMBER 21, 1819. To the Printers of the United States, (1 ENTLEMEN—In presenting a list of new prices lof 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 bad 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 wasmade on those prices, during the late war, although existing circum stances would have justified the measure. It was con sidered that an advance would be an actual loss to the printers, as tiie competition in the printing business bail, before that period, arrived at such a point, that the public were supplied with printing, at nearly the mini mum; and also, that it was probable the prices ot types would continue 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 and frequently uncertain credit, which produces, to the sel ler all the effects of reduction of price whilst to the prin ter who pa}sit is of comparatively little benefit. All the advantage is in favor of tlpse who promise, but do not perform, as in truth they get types for nothing, and the solvent printers pay for them. Another objection 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 poverty. Men who possess talents, economy, industry and hon or, will sometimes lack monev. The characters who have just claims to those attributes, will rarely be at a loss for friends, and will enter on business with a more favorable prospect of success, when assisted by a mod erate, than by an extended credit, which is equally with in the rcacli 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 first of April, who comply with the new terms, will be entitled to ben efit by the new prices. x Presuming on the long intimacy which has subsisted betweeri you, gentlemen, and this establishment, 1 re quest you will give this an insertion in your papers, Your’s respectfully, JAMES RONALDSON.
