What a Newspaper Dies For Nothing.

The following article should be rend nnd
pondered well by every man that takes
our paper without paying for it :
The result of my observation enables
me to state a fact, that the publishers of
newspapers arc- more poorly rewarded
man anv men in me unuea mates, wnoin
vest nn equal amount of labor, capital an i
thought . They are expected to do lime
service for las-t pay ; to stand more sining
ing and d-jad heading; to puff and defend
more people without fee.) ; or hope of ra
ward, than all other cla,se.s. They credit
wider aii-l longer, t;et ofteiiei- cheated, sui'
fer more pecuniary lojse-. are oftenc-r the
victims of inisjdaee-l confidence than any
other. It goes h.utier for ao'.nn ui"il to
expend a ib'll.u on a valuable newspaper
than ten on needless ge.v gaw-s, yet everv-

unrequited pen of the editor? How many
