In doing thin, we are .reluctantly compelled to advance our tenoe 4o the rates of three dollars per year. For <hf?, however, we do not conaidor any apology necessary. Iii fact, when we reflect i that pay ?h?? doliar per pound for paper (rat?? which fsake the single item pf paper furnished eaeli subscriber coat ua about fi per year) and that other printing material* tiave advanced in proportion, we scarcely think ttiat we do our*elf juatiso by theae term* ; but while we, ua a public journalist, condemn high price* and extortion in others, wo wi*h to amid any appearance of it in our own buaineaa. We adopt theae terma (to lie aeen on tin; Hral page) for the preaent attract. Of conrre the advanced ratee do not npplv to those subscriber* who have paid in advance, until after the expiration of their present term of subscription.
