For several years past w have been
'sending the REPORTER to quite wnninber
of subscrihns without receiving any piy
therefor. Finding that this sistem is not
a success, We have determined' to ',adhere
strictly to .adconee assist's's - hereafter.
' • .Therefore„all• subscribers in arrears on
the :31st December will have their ps
pers discontinued ;and the amounts due
will be 'collected. Those who do not wish'
to pay costsinut heed thisiwtice and pay
up befo&that date •
Filrtherm'ore, experience has t aught us
that the lowest price at which the Baron-
TEA; can be furnished is One Dollar and
Fifty Cents, in clubs. Postmasters and
others-who haie kindly interested theml
selves in increasing our circulation wilt
bear the fact in mind, and collect 41.56

ibis sum will be accepted by us.
After the fist of January nest we shall

- one moment of hesitation then would

To THE POINT.—The following two
passage from the President's mes.
sage are of that Blass which " hit the
nail square on the head." The , first
refers to the rights of citizenship as
connected with the wicked outrages
at the recent elections in the southern
states : No temporary or adminis
trative interest of government, how
ever urgent or weighty, will ever
displace the:eal of our people in de
fense of the primary rights of citi-
zentihip. They understand that the
.:protection -of liberty requires the
maintenance in full vigor of the man-
ly 4lettiodssof fre speech, free press
free suffrage, and will sustain the
full authority of 'government to en
:( force the laws - which are framed to
preserve these estimable blessings.
The material progress and welfare
of the States depend on the protec
tion afforded_to their eitizens. There
can be no peace without such pro
teetioN and no_prosperity without
peace." And this on finance "In
the present financialoondition of the
countrill am persuaded that the wel
fare of legitimate business and in
. dustry of every description will be
promoted by abstaining from all at
tempts to make radical charges in
the existing financial 'legislation.
Let it be understood that during the
' coming 'year the :business of the
country will be undisturbed bygov
erninental interference with the laws
affecting it, and we may confidently
expect a healthful and, enduring re
' vt4al of business." To which all
clases of citizens ,v4O are not fools,
knaves or deinagogves , will respond,
"•ainen." .
- THAT terrible onslaught upon the
ational Banks doesn't start with
much spontaniety. So high an au
thority as VHORHEES is fTEHAIo eon
feE•sthat little is likely to come of it.
lie can't see how the Democratic
party i's to be united in the attack
when some-of its ablest leaders like
BAYARD, KERNAH, B, , ANDOLPH and
'EATON are- strougly opposed to , it.
Yoonur.r.s is despondent -about the
future, and is even said to have no
hope for 1880. The prevailing senti.
ment of the Demodricy at present
is in favor of keeping still until the
effect of resump tion acl, esti be ascer
tained. 'the common remark among
Democratic Comgressmen is: "We
can't effect anything this Winter, so
what is the use of making a record
whieh may be troublesome ?"
That is the very thing that will keep
all tlie fanatical agitators_ in Check.
The Democrats see that they have a
hard fight before them in 1880, and
they don't propose to make it hard
er by unnecessary and hopeless resis
tance' to what is 'likely to prove a
popular measure. It is extremely
probable, therefore, that the Natfon
al Banks, will be -allowed to survive
for a abintlame longer at-least. -

As Alabama correspondent of the
Lancaster Intelligencer, (Dem.) gives
this interesting and characteristic inci
dent in the life of our popuiar Sena
tor : _
By the way, let me tell you a story
about Don. It is true, and will show
that there was originally some good
hi him. Don went to Princeton col
lege; there were with him ' three
young men, from the South. -1 -4' col
.lege.friendship grew up between these
four that was more lasting than such
friendships usually are. When se
cession came, the three Southerners
joined the confederacy. One rose to
be a general, one was attached to a
foreign mission, and the other served
as At the close of the war
the attache did not have a covering
for his head; the general was a bro
ken merchant, anu the chaplain re
turned home to find his church burnt
down -and parishioners too poor; to
rebuild. Don went to General Grant
and as a personal favor obtained a
lucrative poSition for the ex-confed
erate attactip ;\he arranged the Gen
eral's Wraith an started him again
in business ; he \ raised, either froth
his own means or \from his friends',
$6,000, and rebuilt the . -parson's
church, and then sent him cash mon
ey enough to furnish his parsonage.
Don Cameron did these 'good deeds
without letting his Fight hand knew
what his left hadd was doin'. I
\ob
tained this story from. a Pt>l ceton
man, now a member .' of 'Con ress.
He told it to me several years go,
And I have no doubt that it is, su..
stantially true. Good may come out
of. Nazareth, and a Cameron is not \
necessarily wholly bad.. So if you
can put in a kind word for Don oc
casionally, it will be appreciated by
some of the old set who knew him
" in days lang sync." • '
SEssamz.-:--The Putter 'Journal
gives utterance to the foltowing truth
ful and sensible thought in regard to
supporting the party press
There is honesiy\and intelligence
enough in this county\to keep it Re
publican, but the conscience and judg
ment of the people must. ,appealed
to by an increase in the krculation
of Republican newspapers,\kn order
to make the honesty effectual in
building up the party of justice \ and
equal ,rights. There are thre \. or
four hundred citizens of Potter, with
Republican proclkities, who take
no Republican newspapers. Thtit \
is why the coalition carried the
county at the last'
_election., There
is no reasto expect a better re
sult next time, unless our friends
will remove the douse of our defeat
which is too many non-subscribers
to Republican newspapets. A bad
cause will flourish as well , without
newspapers as with' them,' s hut a
good cause requires a constant ap
peal to the conscience and hetter, na
tore of the' people in order to s in-.
crease its strength. pet up a club
of. Weekly Tribunes, or some other
sound Republican newspaper, at
every post office in this county now,
and the gciod effect of this work will
be very manifest te. the next election.
A majority of seven in Potter county
for a repudiating Candidate for Con
gress has a bad look. It calls 'for
instant action on the\ part of those
who believe that " honesty is the,
