A dun is not an impeachment of a subscriber's integrity, but is the outcropping of the publisher's neces. Bity. For instance a thousand men owe from ono to four dollars. Ho has to dun them to pay expenses. Instead of getting mad and stopping the paper for what ( is honestly due, the subscriber should thank the editor for waiting^ on him patiently and pay up TTKe a man.
