subscription rate* that the price of
this paper in one dollar a year in ad
««ac<; and if a person does not pay
within three months after subscribing,
the price will be $1.25; also, that if
the subscription is not paid until after
*« months, the price will be *1.50.
We are obliged to do this to cover
oases in collecting. We have on our I
books a large number who are consid- [
erably over three, months. We do
not wish any one to pay more than I
one dollar, although the paper is welt
worth the dollar and a half, and we
now make this offer—Every subscri
ber who pays us one dollar in cash by I
the 15th of next month will be re
ceipted for twelve months from date
of subscription. Attend to this at
once for fear you forget U- It is im
possible foi ns to occupy our present
quarters during the winter without
some changes. We cannot make the
changes without money, We there
fore request 'zvery one who has not
paid us to sc nd us a dollar, and to send
it at once.
“ FENCE. OR NO FENCE."
The form in w hich this question is
stated, is calculated to mislead those
who have not had the matter explain
ed. The question is whether you
shall build fences to keep your neigh
bors stock out of your crops; or wheth
er he shall fence in his stock and thus
keep them from damaging you.
The whole matter turns upon the
question whether it is cheaper to
fence in the crops or the stock. If it
cau be shown that the advantages lie
on the side of the present system. »l
will be best to continue it; but if it Is
proved that it costs less to fence in the
stock, then, that should be done.
Few persona have any idea of the
enormous cost of fences. It is not
until after a careful calculation, in
which every item U included, that you
realise what a vast expense fences
are. It is so far beyond what is usu
ally supposed, that we prefer to hove
our readers do a little " figuring" be
fore making a statement.
We do uot know bow much would
bo gained bv the change proposed; but
the fact that those who have tried
fencing the stock instead of the fields
greatly prefer it, would seem to in.
dicate that the advantages are largely
ou that side.
Rev. J A. Pinkston,
Wo publish in this issue the repl)
of this gentleman to the questions
propounded to him by “T.” We re
gret that any one should have decmec
it necessary to interrogate him in re
gard to a matter over which lie cotih
have no control. Mr. Pinkston is at
excellent man, and we trust he wilt
get an education and be very useful.

A New York paper says that the
body of A. T. Stewart was recovered
last week upon payment of 887 AW
and a pledge that the robbers should
not be prosecuted, and that it was
placed in Garden City on Tuesday
night last. It is a little over three
years since the body was stolen.
Lake City Jitporter : '• Every year
farmers go from this place to the Gulf
coast, and there pack up large quar.-
ties of mullet and bring them home.
This year more will go than ever, and
we learn .that the fishermen will be
better prepared this fall than they
have been. We are glad to learn the
Interest that is fell for the fisheries,
for they help to bridge over a season
of a short bacon crop, and the ex
change is not a bad one.”

WASHINGTON tstTER.
Mr. Jnme> Report. TIM Professions,
rnsus His Practices. How lie Ig
uors his Civil Service Rules.
/ft® vrregularCnr-M« .
Washington, D. C., (
Nov. 25th - . 1881. (
i Post Master General Janies has
completed his annual report, and his
suggestions on civil reform are so
good (Alas 1 that that they sould be
at such variance with his practice)
that I will venture to send an extract.
He say#:
“ borne method of relief* must be
provided from the overwhelming
pressure for appointment to clerk
ships and other subordinate positions,
and from the equal pressue for the
removal of capable and experienced
assistants to make room for those
who are not more competent. Ap
pointment by intlueticb naturally re
suits in making the tenure of office
depend not upon fidelity, and efficien
cy in the discharge ot official duty,
but upon the assiduous cultivation of
the favor of a patron. Buch a tenure
is incomputable with the sell respect
of tbe incumbent, aud the servicemust
iiecessarially sutft-r decline
of its morale But the evil conse
quences cannot be limited io the pub
iic service ; they affect all political
action, the purt.y and vigor of the
government, and the natural charac
ter itself. The question, therefore,
is one of far higher importance than
that of the comparative times* of
clerks in the employment of the gov
ernment , and real ly concerns tin- chai -
aeter and success of republican iosti
uttious.”
This is the way that Mr. James
writes, but it. is notorious that he bn
di'tui«»ed hundred* <4 able posmas
ters in Virginia for no other ilia" p«>
litical reasons, replacing there, in ev
ery case, with less experi'-i:: *d. if not
totally inexperienced, men. An <x

aho lives two mile* from the post
like, which is farther than the pesta'
law allows.
1 A defiant, square lord advocate of
ill tbe vices of our most vicious civil
service system, is not half so danger
■ns to republican institutions as at
iesiituHiing hypocrite likeJame*. who
praises reform with his pen while he
' stalls it in his practice where Guitemi
! -hot Garfield.
But it is not only in Virginia ihai
the public service has deteriorated ur
' der the brief management of the Ni v
York Reformer. His own loudly
1 trumpeted rules have been conspicu
ously ignored and trampled upon by
himself right here tn Waahingtm
again and again. Only last week, a
man was appointed to a SI ,f>o<) clerk
■hip who did not pass examination
a hose only claim was that his father
is a justice of the Supreme court- He
was appointed over competent, expe
rienced clerks, who have been long
in service, and who are getting only
81,200 per year,
A WONDERFUL FEAT,

NEWSPAPER LAWS.
We call the especial attention of onr
1 postmasters and subscribers to this
, paper to the following synopsis of
• the Newspaper Laws:
[ 1. The postmaster is required to
; give notice be letter (returning a pa-
I per does not answer the law) when a
| -übscriber does not take his paper out
i of the office ; and state the reason for
not being taken. Any neglect to do
so, makes the postmaster responsi
ble to the publisher for the payment.
2. Any person who takes a paper
from the postoffice, whether directed
to his name or another, or w hether he
has subscribed not, is responsible for
the pay.
3. If any person has ordered hi#
paper discontinued he must pay ar-
I rears or tbe publisher way continue
to send it until pay went is made, and i
collect the whole amount, whether it
be taken from the office or not. There 1
can be no legal discontinuance till the ;
payment is made.
4. If the subscriber orders his paper J
stopped at a certain time, and tbe I
[ publisher continues to send it, tho ■
| subscriber is botmd to pay for it, if he ft
I takes it out of tbe postoffice. Tho ■
; law proceeds upon the ground that a ■
[ man must pav for what ho uses. w
5. The courts have decided that re- J
fasjog to take a newspaper Or a peri- ■
; odica l from the post office, or retuov- M
j ing aud leaving tliem uncalled for, is W
‘ l-ritaa facia evidence of intentional fli
fraud.
