TtlEtflEaT MANNF.R OF SI:FPOUTING • NEWS
PAPER4---The fopowing remarks of a,contempo
raiy,*the best', manner of supporting a news
paper, are tree to 'the letter. We commend them
to the consideration of the public:
Muclidepends upon the supporters of a news
. paper whether it is conducted with spirit and in-
Fterest—ill they arc negligent in their payment,
the pride and ambition of the editor are broken
„ .dowtr,he works at a thatikless and, unprofitable
task, he becomes discinir f aged and careless, his
paper looses its pith and
.interest and dies.. But
4 on the contrary, if his subsiiribers are of the right
• sort, if they
,are punctual, liberal hearted fellows,
always in advance on the subscription list, tak-
ing in interest in increasing the number of his
subscribery now and then speaking a giood word
for his paper; cheering him on his, course by
:smiles of approbation ; with such subscribers as
these, I would forswear comfort, ease, leisure,—
everything that could possibly step between me
and the gratification of every laudible desire on
their .pait; I would knew no other pleasure hut
their satisfaction. How much then can the sup-
porters of a newspaper d.), to make it interest•
ing and respectable—indeed vvithot concurring
efforts on their part, the publisher of a paper Will
not, cannot,besiow the attention which is neces

nEA ft SIR:-1n article called Dr. Ilewee "Nerve
and Bone Liniment," came to nny knowledge a
bout two months since, through our friend Mr. Camp
bell, and I procured a bottle and had used it for about
a week without any material changeontil one morn
ing I found myself under the exercise of very uncom
mon feelings, imagining that could I be helped up I
could stand and walk, I requested my family to aid
Me, but they were unwilling I should trust myself on
my feet, not having fOr the last j; ur,teen and a huff
years ever even made the attempt to stand: hut my
confidence was so great that they consented to assist
me from my bed. I foond I could uie my legs with
apparent ease, but could not bear me weight on my
feet. With supnort, however, I could : plate one foot
before the other with a facility that astonished me
and all around me. They led me twice across the
room ; I sat down with feelings of happiness that I
never before experienced; the idea Wi 13 that I was
once again to be restored to the world ran through
my Frain° like in electric shock. My family surroun
ded'me in tears of joy, and the excitement so com
pletely overcome me that I fainted.. The same day I
walked three tube across the floor, again bearing a
little weight at each time my feet : I then used
crutches fur a few days, when my strength bad
become so far re-established, that I . could cross the
thisr without the least aid. My adva:icement trom
floe time has been almost incredible. I can walk
Iwo hundred yards and back with ease, and my chil
dren, ( the bed-rid aye often blessed; like me. with
near a dozen,) have been so overjoyed that .hercon Id
scarcely eat ur sleep, and Mrs. Corning seems to feel
hallo score of years younger her.elf. You ill rec
ollect how much bent together I was when you were
last herea I have entirely overcome this. If I look
ed as ode as I felt when I began to walk, 1 would
have been gazed at in astonishment. I have seen ma
ny of my old acquaintances, some of whom did not
know me at alLand o hers would scarcely credit their
senses, and would hardly have been more astonished,
though one had ' risen from the dead." I have now
every-confidence that lam a well man. I think this
allele is the most extraordinary or tiny I ever heard
of. and if it to not extensively made ktiown to the pub
lic, I think tha proprietors are very culpable. If you
know the persons in New York selling it, you had bet
ter show them this letter, and let them rifer ti you,
ur publish th:s If you thaik it would aid the distressed.
Remember me to your family,
Yours, v' ry t-uly,
