[* To oft!* Patrons. On the lith'bfPt'brunry, 185a, wc issued fhcfirst ifflmbcr of the Iaincnster "Ledger.? Vcty "nearly four years have clrfp.std since thcrt, and we ate now n'blc to say whether the business has "been a "profitable one or not. Wc arc ibrcctTto say it'hasnot. The why and whdrefbfc, Ve wflllay before oOr . readers, and invite their "particular attention to what we havo to say. We ^vifl give a pluin statement of facts, and fhesc facts rfre intended solely for the consideration fcf our patrons. When wc first conceived the idea of putling up a paper in Lancaster, our ambition prompted us to put up one, which in size and typography, even if deficient in editorial matter, would do credit to the District, and in those respects credit to ourself. We Kntu- Ihen, rtnd we Anrftr flow, tha't there is not a district in this State, and scarcely a county in any other State, with so few white inhabitants, in which there is a newspaper containing so much as the I/edger. It is true, you will f nd larger papers containing more than ours, but those papers are publi hod in more thickly settled communities; they make much more than we do. We sould make more money by publishing our paper at one dollar a year i"f we had six or eight thousand subscribers, than we do at Iwo dollars, with six or eight hundred. But we arc not disposed to complain -on this icore?for the ratio of population, we have us large a list as anyprtpcr in the State.? We will 'Warrant this. We are disposed to :oniplain though, of the conduct of many *bf these subscribers. We are nbsoIntiil flint nn liot'o <liinhia<l .frlwirn joimieh, and yet ue nre compelledto borrow money, week after week, to "pay our rurrent expenses. It is not right?it is unust. The amounts owing us aresmall, nnd t docs seem to us, after our e(Torts, that every ciftilrcn who had one spark of district pride in him, would take pleasure in paying us what is simply our due. We have published s paper, we repeat, in proportion to Ihe population, larger than any other papet in tho State, and we believe in the United States, nnd instead of being encouraged we have every cause of regret In another respect have wc boon treated wrongflally, we had nigh snrdtdiameifully,? In other districts (for wc have enqnired, nnd we know our experience in one,) it is the custom to pay advertisinghiris, if not before, at least on the first day of January. There is no evasion; no putting o$'. Here it is not so. Those who we know can pay, possess ample means, and who lawfully owo us the money', evade us; and we have bills of the first year yet unpaid. We had expected very differently of some of these gentlemen at leust; we thought they would liavo been the first to pay us; we thought they would have used every effort to promote our interest, instead of fettering us. Well, we are getting rather tired of such kind of conduct, nnd if it l? ... .outran litis business ana seek dttnie other. We are not disposed to waste our time by pandurinir to ?<i|Mfcwsvl prieious wen. Those persons indebted to us for subscriptions, nro now notified, that we will wait on thrin until the first of January, before we strike o(T their names. If tliey do not settle by that time, we will erase their names, nnd place their accounts in a Magistrate's hand to collect. We have sent out bills with this paper, and have made theso subscribers a fair proposition; if tliey do not accede to it, tlicy must expect the consequences. All old accounts for advertising we will sue upon, entirely regardless as to the parties. It pains us to wntoin this manner, but necessity forces it upon us. Wo owe money nnd therefere we must collect money, and we trill collect, if it be possible. Advertising. It is really astonishing how slow onr people are. They think they sav6 money by not advertising. Business men know they lose money. We advertise as low as most papers, und onr paper has a large circulation, dui iu oraer 10 see whether our friend* are disposed to advertise, we will roduee our rales, and make them as low as the lowsl.? Hereafter we will count Bittern lines to the square. The space which sixteen lines Bourgois type will make will be considered a square. Now, ndvertisors come ahead! Those disposed to advertise by the year, or for six months, or those having very long advertisements we will make a considerable reduction from the above rote. We are determined to try the people and see if they are disposed to sustain the paper. Estei.le Grart; or, Tsi I-ost Wife.? OarrrU ?f* Co., N.

He made some apology for intercepting 'them in this manner, by saying that he "had mistaken her for her daughtert(his wife) and asked Mrs. Lewis when she w as going home and ou being answered that she should return that afternoon, he requested )rrr to tell Iris w ifo on her return to meet him that evening at a specified place, that he wanted to have a talk with bcrbeforo he went away nnrifcWv om/1 t V\ nf k>o k-w-- * 4 ...IV. .Ii'iv nv?

This case trie?J in the Court of Common Plena, now sitting on Tuesday the <kh inst., decided a point of some general interest. The facts were these: J nines Hall, a citizen of Florida, and a cattle drover, contracted with the defendant to fnrniah 100 head of cattle to he delivered to defendant nt Charleston sometime between the 10th and 23d of September, 1832. Plaintiff, in pursuance of his agreement, drove the cattle from Florida, and proceeded without obstacle, until be reached the Aitainaba river. litre his progress]was arrest jJ. The river was swollen by a freshet, and be could not pass over with the cattle. Perceiving that this delay must necessnril; preclude the possibility of a literal performance ol the agreement, Plaintiff wrote to Defendant, stating the difficulty, ad milting the technical breach of the contract on his part, and inquiring whether the difference of time which would occur uuder the circumstances, between the time at which delivery could l? made, and the time agreed upon for the delivery, would l*e insisted upon by ihu Defendant. If so, Plaintiff stated he would drive the cattle elsewhere. The evidence presented that defendant had received the letter ; that he had consulted with a sub-contractor, mutually interested with him in the matter, and that it was agreed between thein Plaintiff should come on with the oattle. Plaintiff received no reply to his letter. ' Acting upon the above facte, Plaintiff proceeded to Charleston, and tendered the cattle on the 27th day of September, being about four day* later than waa re quired by the term* of agreement.

The Jury gave a verdict f?w the plaintiff upon the ground that the neglect of Defendant to replv to Plaintiff's letter of in<^niry was a waiver of Defendant's right to insist upon a literal performance of the contract; and that if he had intended to rescind the agreement because of the alight difference of time which occurred between the actual delivery and the time specified for delivery by the terms of the agreement, it waa bis galy to bnve notified Plaintiff efthe fact when ae reqneated which he had foiled to da.?Charts*to* Standard.
