To Our Subscribers. Numbera of our subscribers for tho past few days have been receiving ?cutio reminders of long due subscriptions and a modest request to try to settle up. Wo aro calling principally on those who .are in arrears for two or moro jfKars, but wo hopo all will try to sottlo up to date. Wo find largo numbers on our books who owe us from four dollars to ns high as twenty dollars for subscription alono. Thcso small sums if put together woull aid us materially in our efforts lo make a readablo paper, and wo know our readers would enjoy tho COURIKU moro if .they felt they had paid for it. Tho orop is now coming into market and we trust (o rcccivo a lift from its income: We know tho limes aro hard and the people are poor and in dobt, and while wo desire to Bquaro our books wo would not press those who cannot settle with us at once or in full. Wo hopo, howovor, all will pay Us some from time to timo until they get oven with us. When onco?evon with tho paper a subscriber will find lt nothing to pay fifty cents every three months, but to gol behind for years the paper begins to seem a burden. Wo have to pay cash for our labor and malet ml, and while wo aro Witling in tho sutnmor to indulge subscribers until fall, wo fool that I hoy should thoa promptly moot their obligations. You all ktfbw tho paper is a friond nud companion, {jiving to you and your families valuable instruc tion and amusing many a leisure hour winch blight otherwise bo spont in bad company, besides, has it not labored without ceasing to Yeforrn the government, to unite tho peoplo "and to promoto every thing that advances tho 'social, moral and financial condition of the people? Help us, friends, in tho good work by 'giving us the Capital to run our paper. Strive to get your neighbors to subscribo as a good in vestment, for such an amount and variety of reading matter cannot bo purchased for two dollars as tho newspaper gives in a year.

By an advertisement in auottier column it will bo seen that V?. \V. Colo's groat circus, mena gerie, museum, &o., will exhibit in Walhalla ou uext Monday, Oclobor 20th. To givo our read ers nu idea of tho coining exhibition and its vast proportions wo copy tho following notice of il from thc Louisville Courier-Journal: Tho long expected arrival of W. W. Cole's circus, menagerie, museum and trained animal exposition ot' wonders look placo yesterday. The show business now seems lo run lo consoli dations, iu which tho aim is lo include old style circus, menageries, museums and an aggregation of shows exceeding thc small alla i rs ot a few years ago as much as can bo imagined, lu car rying oui his plan Mr. Colo did cot stop with merely one or Iwo collections, but gathered iu at once the Creal New York Circus, Trained Ani mals, &o.; thal of thc Famous New Orleans Menagerie, Museum, &c., and colossal aggrega tion of thc World's Wonder Hxhibition, massed in ono grand oily of tents of monster propor tions. In order to keep paco with tho times Mr. Colo has reduced his price of admission for adults to GO cents; children under 9 years of agc 25 cents. So great has been his success .since tho inauguration of cheap rates for the people, that he has been compelled to enlarge his exhibition touts to more than double their lormcr capacity to accommodate tho tons of thousands who patronize this great BIIOW daily al all points where il exhibits. Naturally, a siicet procession of an exhibition like this is sufficient to attract no small attention of itself. Tho parado yesterday more than justified all that has buen said of the show. Tho chariots and splendid costumes, with all the phnraplicr nalia of a circus, were cf thc most elaborate and costly description; but tho success of ihe affair is as much owing to the an isl io taste of thc pro pi ietor ns tho lavish expense which ho has entered hilo. Tho performance in the lents was fully worthy of thc parado in public. Thc zoological departments were fully represented The rare wild beasts, birds and rep)?los, tho trained animals, magnificent spcoimeiis of oceanic lions in Hie sub-aquatic mansions, mudo up a monster exhibition which would go far to disprove tho lalo "A. Ward," ihal the show business has by no moans "seen its parmi est day." Wo commend W. W. Colo's great show to tho public and the press generally throughout thc South. The Greenville Daily News, in alluding to tho immunity given to Republican ofRoo hold ors where restitution is mude and resignations tendered speaks as follows in regard to ?rn-? plicated Democrats: lt is said i hat many prominent Democrats uro implicated, and it is deemed boat to let all escalio wilbout trial. Wo do not believe lili?. Wo think tlint our Democratic State officials ure disposed to do their duty to tho common wealth, no matter who muy ho hurt thereby. Wo believe that they, with tho great bulk of tho people, would punish n Democrat who hud been sharing tho plunder of tho thieve* to tho utmost extent of tho law, li Democrats of the State ure implicated they st.
