There is tho prediction made for the New

In Engraham vs. Laidler et al., from
Houston : “When, on the trial of a claim
to property levied on under an execution,
the issue was whether tho sale of the land
levied on by the defendant to the claim
ant, was fraudulent, and the plaintiff in

son-in-law, all his other real estate :
“Herd—That this was competent

from tho action of tho court bolow
granting an injunction restraining the city
authorities of Rome from assessing and
collecting a license foe from persons en
gaged in business, trade, tfeo., and

Tiie Commonwealth threatens tho ex

subscribers—in intelligence appreciation {
and integrity—are nnaurpas*"-1 by any
readors in the country.
If some of our leaders could come to our
office a few days in succession, they wonld '
give us credit for a patience not observa-
le in some of ou. articles, and learn !
more of human nature, and the mysteries j
and inioories of newspaper publishing, }
than they ever knew before. Imagine a
man dressed in tho garb of a planter bolt
ing in and enquiring for the editor. No
person else will be notice, and ooming
into the editor’s presence, he demands,
Why didn’t I got my paper hist week ?”
The editor mildly suggests that “having
waited nearly a year for his subscription,
tho name was stricken from the rolls.
Thereupon tho visitor rages, asks if we
doubt his honesty and informs ns that he
always got his paper and paid for it whon
ho d—d pleased, and that was whon the
paper was worth roadin’. ” The editor
being a wook man, physically, bows and
the indignant subscriber, with a glance of
hate, leaves; but the momont he is out,
in comes a man with a business air, hold
ing a bill in his hand, who domands “Why
in thunder wo charge him so much for ad
vertising ?”
The editor says tho charge was for the
time. “Then you insist on ray paying
this exorbitant bill ?" “It is just, ’ says
tho oditor. “Then atop my paper says
the indignant person—and it is stopped.
The business man goes out, and is super
seded by a dangerous-looking individual,
who has yellow lines of dry nicotine
about his month, and a bravado way of
wearing his pants inside his boots, though
it’s awfully duBty outside. “He wants to
know if tho police report refers to him,
and if so, why ?" Tho oditor mildly iu- j
qtiiros into tho case, and says, meekly, |
“Yes ” And the fellow demands a re- J
traotion to-morrow morning, and loaves. I
Another man, who keeps goats, j
comes in to seek the editor, and |
wants to know “why his paper
aint served ?” And after much inquiry,
and examining witnesses, it is found tho
goats oat up the papers beforo be is ont of
bed. Then follow a succession of men,
who oome in to advise tho editor and warn
him how dangerous his policy is, and inti
mate thoy will “drop " if ho persists in
his incendiary course. This and much
more that would turn an ordinary man
gray. Thon there are tho cares unmen
tioned— tho work on the paper, tho bills
to bo met, tho slander of old women, tho
traductions of idiotic men, the caroB of a
family, and tho general uncertainty as to
the morrow which make newspaper pub
lishing South a little more difficult than
in most conntries.

In U. W. Boulter vs. James \V. Woodall
et al., from Twiggs, a note given be
the war, for money borrowed in cur
bank notes, with two securities, had af
terwards been reuowcd with the iutorost
included, one of tho securities being
omitted in tho reuewed note, with the
cousent of all parties. The Court below
charged tho jury that the leaving out of
the name of one of tho securities was a
novation of the origiunl contract, and
would authorize tho scaling of tho
note ns one originally given during
tho war. Tho Supreme Court reversed
tho judgment on this ground, holding
that “one simple contract us to tho same
mutter, and on no new consideration,
does not destroy another coutract between
the same parties, but if new parties
introduced by novation, so as to chaugo
the person to whom the obligation is due,
the origiunl contract is at nu end. "
Wilcox, Gibbs A Co. vs. Howard et al.,
from Houston, was nu action to recover
for guano sold the defendants. Tho de
fense was that the gnauo was worthless
au<l not reasonably suited to the use in
tended. There war, en the trial, con-
altsorbed the Sun, Hon. Alexander
.Stephens’ paper, has been materially re
duced iu size. Tho Now Orleans Pica-
yune, once valued at half a million, was
sold two years ago for #100,000, and n fow
months ago only brought #2,000 under
tho hammer. Not one of tho Now Or
leans dailies was self-sustaining during
tho past year. Tho Times, Picayune,
Pee and Republican wore all adrainnpon
the pockets of their proprietors, or ab
sorbed tho profit# of tboir job printing ;
and from prosont appoaranoos matters iu
the Orescent City, journalistically speak
ing, are likely to go from bad to worse."
it pains us to ntato that the wnut of
success iu journalism is not confinod to
Atlautn, Havnuuah or New Orleans; it
sooms peculiar to tho whulo South. Why
it is, wo cannot say. The newspapers of
tho North aro flourishing with their cus
tomary vigor. Despitotho panio and hard
times tho people road aud ndvertiso, aud
pay for both, whilo tho Southern papers
aro daily waning. This cannot be attrib
uted to a lack of ability or enterprise in
the management of Southern journals,
for thoy aro fully up with the times, and
will oompare favorably with tho most suc
cessful pupors in tho country. It cannot
be denied that, oither from want or iudif-
ferenoe, tho Southern whitos in propor
tion to thoir numbers do not road us exten
sively as they do in the North and West,
and u glance at tho pupors of tho respec
tive Heotious will show that Southern mer
chants, with few oxooptious, do not ap
preciate the value and importance of ad
vertising. But thore ia still auothor trou
ble with which tho majority of Southern
journals have to contend, and thnt
is the crodit system. A distin
guished journalist of this Stato assured us
lately that ho lost yearly thirty-three por
cent, of his subscriptions, booauso people
neglected to pay after being trusted.
Now no buuiuoss can stand this loss, and
particularly a newspaper, tho greater part
of whose value lios in its good will. While
tho credit system is practiced, Southern
journals will coutinuo to bo impocunious
and down at the heels. So far
concerned, we hove decided ou tho proper
course and shall follow it out, though wo
did not do so till our loss from indifferent
subscribers amountod to many thousand
dollars. Our course meets with opposi
tion and, 8traugo to say, soiuo merchants
in this city, w hoso interests it would bo to
encourage cash payments, airishly ref uso
to take our paper if wo do not trust them,
on tho plou that “they are good for
their debts." Of conrso wo hutuor those
men by bogging thorn to tnko our paper on
thoir own terms. There soemsjto bo an im
pression iu tho minds of Home uninformed
people that tho choapost and easiest busi
ness is that of publishing a paper ; in
deed, that they rather compliineut a pub
lisher by reading his paper, with tho most
indefinite idea of over paying for it. Said
a wonderfully intelligent womnn to a
frieud of our s yesterday : “Well, I do
declare. The idear of that follor (refer
ring to us) nukin' a fortia right in our
midst by giviu of advice. I can’t stan'
it quite!"
This old lady's notion is not general;
but thero is a class of newspaper spong
ers that reconcilo thoir consoicuoes to
their peculiar condoct in not paying us
by arguing that we are getting rich by ad
vising people who know more than our
selves. Vet the great mass of Southern
