WAR ABOUT TO BE DECLARED !
1310-7,AD OR BLOOD !"
These startling headings suggest
ed themselves to us as we mentally
asked the question, What do those
of our patrons mean, who make no
effort to pay ? A short time ago we
sent out an even 400 duns, not one
of them for less than $4. The re
sponse was scarcely enough to pay
the postage. What on earth are we
to do ? We can't buy paper, furnish
labor, pay postage, rent, and the
Lord only knows what all, without
money. Must we shut up our es
tablishment because we cannot get
enough ready cash to keep it run
ning ? There are hundreds w' o
owe us a mere trifle of from two to
ten dollars that would put us out of
all embarrassment if they would on
ly pay up. We appeal to you to do
it. Do not pay all other debts and
leave your printing bill stand until
the publishers are ruined by your
dereliction. It pains us to write so
wickedly, but every other expedient
has failed, and now to evade the
declaration of war, PAY UP !
POPULAR TASTE.
It is asserted by moralists and philoso
phers, that the moral tone of any age is
truthfully indicated by the character of its
popular newspapers and current literature.
If this be true, our age must be more de
prayed than any former era.
But let us examine the subject fairly.
With rare exceptions, newspapers are pro
jested, and books published, with a view
to pecuniary results, merely. Every in
telligent publisher will utilize his experience
and observation, and acquaint himself with
the partialities of those from whom he ex
pects substantial ene)uragement, and will
issue the s!ieeizs of literature, most in ac
cordance with the taste of his patrons. An
inspection of the daily press discloses the
fact, domestic infelicities and revelation of
scandal and crime, enter more largely than
any other topics into the composition of
many of our popular journals. And it
may well be said, therefore, that, with a
large class of readers, these subjects are of
paramount interest, and that, on their in
troduction into the columns of a journal,
depend its popularity and consequent in
crease of circulation.
Again, the exciting and sensational
character, peculiar to many modern ro
mances, find eager admirers, alike in the
humble abode of the sewing girl, and
the luxurious - boudoirs of the child of
wealth. on the railroad cars, and in the
saloon of the steamboat, io the reading
room of the hotel, and in not a few do
mestic circles we find abundant evidence
of the popularity of this species of literature.
Do these facts prove, as it is claimed,
that, iu comparison with tormer ages, we
have degenerated, aed that the prevalent
moral tone of society, is more depraved in
the present century, than it was two bun
dred years ago ? We question the correct
ness of this assumption. We do not doubt,
that, in every epoch preceding our own,
men and women, generally, were no less
wicked, were as easily led astray, and were
guilty of as many improprieties, as are
chargeable to the present generation.—
Fortunately for our position, we are not
left to conjecture. All along the corridors
of time, history, sacred and profane, teems
with records of vice and. immorality, and
of revolting and startling crime:.
We believe that the change of degeneracy
in morals, derives its plausibility, mainly,
from the fact that with us, education is
more generally diffused, and that we posses s
facilities for the transmission of news, un
dreamed of by our ancestry. In their day,
the reading population was inconsiderable ;
tidings were communicated orally, or by
an occasional correspondent. The news
paper was unknown, and events the most
startling were rarely conveyed beyond the
neighborhood of their occurrence. Now
the telegraph flashes every species of im
propriety, throughout the length and
breadth of the land ; no pecadillo or do
mestic difficulty, the most menial, escapes
the argus eyes and reedy pencil of the
übiquitous reporter, and multiplied print
ing presses, and their Briareau hands, dis
saminate intelligence in every nook and
corner of the country. We contend that
corrupt tastes and depraved morals have
existed in all periods and in every country,
and that their manifestation is more ap
parent in the present day, only, because of
the superior facilties -our age affords for
their indulgence. We believe, too, that
in this country, a very large majority ef
its influential citizens, male and female,
are upright in character, unsullied in
morals, and possess cultured tastes which
regard with aversion . the sensational litera
Lure of the day.
Tan Pacific Railroad Bill, which con
templates the endorsement, by the Go ern
meat, of the Bonds of the Texas and Pa
cific Railway Ccmpany, will come before
Congress immediately after the opening of
the regular session. We do hope that this
bill will pass. We want it to pass, not
only because it is antagonized by the Cen
tral Pacific people, who are the most soul
less monopolists on the continent, but be
cause the road is badly needed and it will
open up a new region that will furnish
homes and etuplo3 went for millions.
TUE Greenback-Labor men assure us
that they are determined to go right along;
that their clubs are already re organizing,
and that the politicians who talk so glibly
about their subsiding will find they have
reckoned without their host.

THE treatment which we have latterly
received at the hands of our subscribers
who are in arrears is simply intolerable.
Our whole subscription list is,ou an average,
back from twelve to eighteen months, and
yet during last week, it being Court week,
we received up to Friday noon only $8.75
paid into the office. We felt s 9 outraged
at this treatment that it was with difficulty
we restrained our emotions sufficiently to
prevent us from bringing suit against every
man who is in arrears over two years for
subscription. How tlo people think we
can keep up a paper under such circum
stances % We have been pressed for money,
fur years, and then to experience almost a
total suspension of payment at this time is
enough to discourage any one but a Mark
Tapley. There was a day when we thought
we had the best paying list in the State,
but that day has unfortunately passed.—
There are from two to three hundred who
pay up early in the year and the balance
go dragging along from one to six year
behind, and many of them make no effort
to pay and treat us as if we could furnish
the paper forever for nothing. We can
not live on air alone, nor can we print our
paper on this sort of support. Paper
makers, are lenient enough sometimes, but
this sort of lienency won't support them.
The only way we can see to mend the mat
ter is to bring actions against those away

The success t:f the numerous cheap editions of
the popular new books, by the difierent"Library"

One of the essentials for a physician who desires
to be punctual in his engagements, and prompt in
his calls, is a well arranged Call, or Visiting List.
The writer has used several well prepared books
of this kind, but has found none to be as com
plete, convenient and well adapted to the real
wants of the practitioner as WALSH'S PHYSICIAN'S
CALL-BOOK AND TABLET." In arrangement, con
tents, form and size, it seems to be all that could

Letter f;'om Kansas.
TROY, K ASSAS, NOY, 13, 1577.
Dealt JOURNAL:—At this writir:g, we are en
joying cool, bracing weather, with a small cover
ing of snow. lam told, snow dues not stay long
iu this country. The farmers have already com
menced the work of "shucking corn," and the
crop is a good ono. At this season of the year,
the Kansas farmer turns his attention to his bogs,
that he is preparing for the winter market. Every
farm yard is a perfect swarm el "porker?," that
will weigh from au to too pours:!,.
Emigration to this State is still pouring in. It
is astonishinging the amount of emigrants that
have passed through hero for all parte oldie State,
especial!) , to the southern part. A week or two
ago, a man, his wife and a small child passed
through here on their way to the frontier, in the
hope of settling on Goverment land. Their outfit
was rather thin. They had barely reached one of
the frontier counties, when the man's wife took
sick and died. Away from any town or set
tlement, he was unable to procure a coffin, so he
was compelled to dispose of his wagon-box for
that purpose. He buried his wife, and after mark
ing the resting place of her who had so faithfully
acted as a help-mate, with a sad heart he turned
his face backwards. He reached this place one
day recently, when he related the sad event.
The election is past, and the Republicans hold
h!gh carnival over the ,uocess of their ticket. They
have elected everything. The politics here re
mind me somewhat of the issue in old Huntingdon
county last year. The Democratic vote here did
not pan out worth a cent. A ratification meeting
was held in the Court house, whore I had a histo
ry of the days of border rullianistn . from eye-wit
nesses. The meeting was enthusiastic and full of
interest. One old gray-haired sire arose—an old
settler, and, in words eloquent and full of patriot
ism, told us what the Republican party had done
for Kansas. "Ho thanked God for the Republican
party, and the principles it contained, and the
good it has done mankind; it is to the Republi
can party that we owe our civil and religious lib
erty that we this day enjoy ; it was from the hand
of the great Republican party that we received
protection to our common school system ; and
'twas the same hand that wrested from the grasp
of traitors, the life of our country." The old man,
by this time, was full of fire, and ho closed by
saying that although there are dissensions io the
Republican ranks, and bad men are working fur
its downfall, still the principle it contains will live
on forever.
The fruit crop in this section is fine, one fruit
man, living on the outskirts of the city, has an or
chard of 1400 trees, and is now putting on the
market such fruits as he wishes to dispose of. The
display is fine of every variety. I haveseen since
I came to this country, the Iluest display of all
kinds of fruit that I ever saw before. Potatoes,
large and of every variety. But the Kansas man
thinks nothing of this; he is used to it, and, not
withstanding all this prosperity, there are to be
found dissatisfied souls, who think that some oth
er country is still better. How true it is, that poor
human nature is never satisfied. The Kansas
farmer, as a general rule, is not satisfied with a
moderate income, but would "scoop" in a fortune
at one grasp. As a general thing, they are too
lavish in their expenditure, and the consequence
is they are compelled to mortgage their farms.
They are fast livers, and are bound to bo up with
the times. The wheat crops that have been thresh
ed, was but a two-third one. But the prospects at
this writing are favorable for an abundant harv
est next year ; the weather, so far, has been fa
vorable, destroying all harmful insects. Corn is
s.lling at from 26 to 27 cents, and train load after
train load is being hauled away. A great many
farmers do their own shipping and make hand
somely by it. /11Hing and grain dealing are the
leading trades. A good miller can command from
$l,OOO to $1.200 a year.
Some time since, 1 visited Hiawatha, a beauti
ful town west of here about 24 wiles. It is situat
ed on a beautiful level prairie, and has a popula
tion of 1400; has two grain elevators, that do an
immense business. The country surrounding this
town is grand ; as far as the eye can see, it is one
broad stretch of country, with farm residences.
The town is without the sign of a whisky shop, a
thing the good people will not prohibit. While
there I visited a society that had formed itself into
a mock-Congress. livery State is represented, and
I was pleased to see the Pennsylvania chair so
ably filled by a Doctor Gibson, formerly from Pa.
The bill pending before the House was, "shall
wo accept President Hayes' policy ?" The argu
ments were pithy and instructive. One member
from Kansas, in the course of his remarks told us
a President should have no policy, and referred us
to Grant, Johnson, Lincoln and others.
I have received letters from young men in the
east, anxious to know what inducements there are
in this country. I will take this plan to answer
them. I would say to young men who are willing
to work, and undergo a little, there are chances
for you, that in a few years will make you inde
pendent men. The country is filling up rapidly,
and in the course of a few years, the land now un
occupied, will be taken up, and beautiful farms
will be seen. The chances for the mechanic are
not so good; you must remember that the farmer
is King here, and that is the chief occupation, and
it pays well, alien judiciously followed. Let a
Pennsylvania farmer sell his little"Killdear" farm
and with the same money buy himself a section
of land here in this country, work it judiciously,
and in a few years he won't exchange places with
Grant. In traveling over the country it is easy to
see who are farmers and who tiro not, those who
work with a system are making money, and those
who "cut and coor" as the saying goes, are losing
money every year. Young men, who know little
or nothing of farming, are repairing to the west
ern and southern parts of the State, and are taking
up land, others are buying railroad lands at from
to per acre. The land is easily broken; two
geed, stoat horses flan do the work. At the pres
ent state of affairs throughout the country, this is
the best thing I know of. Let, say 6or 7 young
men form a colony and repair to this land, take
up claims, or buy, and the work will be easy for
them to be soon the possessors of fine farina. But
I would say to those who have no determination to
"stiok," stay where 3nu are. The chances are to
those only who will adopt this little word as their
motto.
Isaac Stake. from Juniata county, Pa., visited
this city this week. The citizens of Huntingdon
county, are well acquainted with him. He is a

A party of hunters left htre some few weeks
since, for the frontier to hunt bufftlo, hot they re
turned with the news that the Indians had driven
the buffalo off west. Prairie chicken, with us, are
the only game, Turkeys are to be found on the
bluffs along the Missouri river, but they are out of
season. I had the pleasure of testing the speed of
a half-blood Indian pony, sometime since, I shan't
try it any more. But I must close, ray letter is
getting too long. TOM.

Scribner's Monthly for 1877-'7B.
Without recalling the excellence of the past, the pub.
lishers of SCRIBNER'S MONTULY announce, for the year to
come, the following
papers:
The Picturetque Side of American Farm Life.—This
subject will be treated in a series of separate papers en
gaged from writers who stand in the front rank among
Americans, both in qualities of style and in keen Insight
of nature. Mr. IL E. Robison, author of a delightful pa
per on "Fox-Bunting In New England" in the January
number, will represent the same section iu this series.
John Burrough's, whose papers on similar topics have
been a highly prized and popular feature of Beaus= will
wr ite o f yaroi T i ff° in New-York. Maurice Thompson,
the poet-naturalist, will describe the characteristics of
Western farming, of which but little has been written. It
is expected that the illustration of this series will be of a
relined and typical character, commensurate with the sub
ject-matter. It is thought that no paper or series of papers
yet issued in Sounnezu will so fully realise the constant
desire of the magazine to keep out of the ruts, and, both
in text and illustration, to obtain quality rather than
quantity, and to print fresh, strong and delicate work
from orizinai sources.
-7 .fioxy7—by EDWitRD EGGLESTON (author of "The
Hoosier Schoolmaster," &c.). This new novel will doubt
less be the most important American serial of the year.
The first number was published in November. Those who
have read It in manuscript declare 'fakir to be much the
most striknigand remarkable story this author has ever
written. It is illustrated by one of the ablest of the
younger American painters—Mr. Walter Shirlaw, Presi
dent of "The American Art Association."
American .Sports—Some of the most novel and enter
taining of these papers are yet to appear, the scenes of
which will be in the West, the Middle States, the South,
New England and Canada.
Out-Of-Door ropers—by John Burroughs, author of
"Wake Robin," &0., will contain not only articles on Birds,
but on "Tramping." "Camping Out," and kindred topics.
Mr Barrough's papers will begin In the January number
the first being entitled "Birds and Birds," and illustrated
by Fidelia Bridges.
Architecture of Birds.—Dr. Thomas M. Brewer will
contribute four exquisitely illustrated articles on birds'-
nests, which every lover of nature will delight in. Dr.
Brewer:has probably the finest collection of birds' eggs in
the world to draw upon for the illustration of these papers
The Saddle-Horse.—Col. George E. Waring, with whose
excellent work of various sorts our readers are familiar,
contributes two illustrated articles on the horse. Ile treats
specially of saddle-horses and their use for pleasure and
for sport, including road-riding, fox-hunting and racing.
The nature of the English thoroughbred and that of his
Eastern paogenitor (the Arabian) are fully considered in
relation to these uses. _
Saxe Holm. —New stories by this popular writer will be
given in early numbers of SCAUBSEIt, beginning with "Joe
Hale's Red Stocking.," tc, appear in January. This
"novelette" chronicles an episode of the late war for the
Union.
His Inheritance."—By Adeline Trafton, so well begun
in the Midsummer Holiday number will be continued
nearly through the year. It will be found to be of in
creasing interest to the very end.
"..4 Knight of Fertune"—Hjaimar HJorth Boyeien's new
novel—will be begun in SCRIBNER at the conclusion of
"His Inheritance." It will reveal a phase of American
society undreamed of by most of our readers, and will be
certain to increase the reputation of the writer 61 a mas
ter of English and of his art.
The Editorial Departments will continue td employ the
ablest pens in America, and will include the present ad
mirable summary of English publications. Besides the
special articles above enumetated, the magazine will con
tain Poems, Sketches, Essays, Reviews, and shorter Stories
of the highest character A large practical reduction in
price is made by all increase in the somber of pages.
The illustrations of the hisciszine. in variety and excel
lence of design and in typographical eircution, will con
tinue to be in advance of those of any other popular mag
azirie at home or abroad.
Subscription price, $4.00 a year, payable in advance to us
or to any book-seller.

Magazine Is worth all it costs, and its circulation Is In—

WANAMAKER & BROWN respectfully
announce that their Autumn and Winter
Fashions in Clothing for Men and Boys
are ready. The great buildings at Sixth
and Market are crowded from top to
bottom with such Clothing as merits tho
confidence of the people.
WANAMAKER & BROWN'S Cloths and
Cassimeres are, in many instances, made
expressly for them. No house in the trade
confines itself so exclusively to the first
class manufacturers. Indeed, a long and
mature experience is necessary to -now
just what goods to select and make up.
• WANAMAKER & BROWN'S Order De
partment will be found full of fabrics
of every good kind, either Novel and
Fashionable
. styles or the . plainer and
- rr,
more useful things. Talented cutters, who
have been successful for years in our
Iwo,service, are in waiting to make garments
according to the ideas of the people who
are to wear the goods. Good hands are
employed to make up, and only good
trimmings used.
WANAMAKER & BROWN'S Ready-
Made Department offers every accommo
dation to those who do not care to go
through the process of measurement. T'ao
stock in all Departments for Men and Boys
is immense and complete, and does not
lack in . style, workmanship or finish,
while the prices can be proven to be
nearly, if not quite, 25 cents on the dollar
lower than the market.
__ WWMiiEII4. BROWN'S Little Boys'
I
