SUBSCRIBED FOR IN CLUBS OP NOT LESS
THAN TEN COPIES 70 ONE ADDRESS;
We have been compelled to raise the club Einbscription
price to'one dollar' and fifty cents in order to save our.
selves from actual loss. Paper has risen, including
taxes, about twenty-five per cent., and is still rising:;
and when we tell our Democratio friends, candidly, that
we can no longer afford to sell the Weekly rATRIIIT AND
UNION at one dollaria year. and , must add fifty cents or
stop the publication, we ;trust they will appreciate our
position, and, instead of withdrawing their subscrip
tions, go to work with a will to increase our list in every
county in the State. We : have endeavored, and shall
continue our efforts, to make the paper useful as a party
ergo, Rd waleoma 'as a news messenger to every fam
ily. We flatter ourselves that it has not been without
some influence in producing the glorious revolution in
the politica of the State achieved at the late election;
and if fearlessness in the discharge of duty, fidelity to
the principles of the party, and amanxious desire to pro
mote, its interests, with some experience and a moderate
degree 9r ability, eau be ranch serviesable'hereafter„ the
Weekly PAralo? AND Thaws wilt not be lee useful to
the party or less welcome to the family circle in the fu
ture than it has been in the past. We confidently look
for increased encouragement in this great enterprise,
and appeal to every influential Democrat in the State to
lend us his aid in running our sepseription list up to
twenty or thirty thousand. - The expense to each indi
vidual is trifling, the benefit to the party may be great.
Delieving that the Democracy of the State feel the ne
cessity of sustaining 'a fearless central organ, we make
this appeal to them for assistance with the fullest confi
dence of success.
, •
The same reasons which indiice ne to raise the price
of the Weekly, operate in regard to the Daily paper, the
price of which is also increased. The additional cost to
each subscriber will be but trifling; mid, while we can
not persuade ourselves that the Change nealtdiatily Made
will result in any diminution of our daily circulation,
jet, were we certain that such would be the conse
quence, we should still be compelled to make it, or suf
fer a ruinous loss. tinder these circumstances we must
throw ourselves upon the generosity, or, rather, the
justice Of the public, and-abide their Verdict, whatever
it may be.
The period for which many of our subscribers have
paid for their paper being on the eve of expiring, we
take the . liberty of leaning this notice, reminding them
of the same, in order that they may.
RENEW THEIR CLUBS.
We shall 61110 tate It Au an especial favor if our present
