The true 1 policy . t the country press is not t;• lower the price of their papers -the reader who will throw up a paper ou the quem of half a dollar per auttuui u of !tile value to the publisher or the ad- vertiser soh., patronises him -but to in- crease as far a possible the amount given n return 4, the subscriber for Inc money. A half dollar is very little to the sub- scriber, but to the publisher it is hun- dreds ..f dollars per annum, and affords he means for many expenditures in the nteresta of his readers which would otherwise be imposaible. At least this s our conviction, and we propose to act upon it. Some of our resects 1 rules& nut to be a able to understand why Some of the city weeklies can be furuulted to them at a 1. wer preens than the publishers of the better class of country weeklies can uffertbeirs. W. will give n few reasons : 1. The publishers of the city dailies have .elvauced the price of their tinily editions $1 s year, its order to lower the sebecnptiun rate of their weekly edi- tions by 50c. They rob Peter to pay t Paul. i 2 They utilize the type set for •heir daily editio s, and thus get the use of t the picked .natter for their weekly edi- tion for nothing. 3. They depend mainly upon rural sub- scribers fur their weekly circulation, and in order t., work a "foreign" paper into favor, must cut below their rivals, the country prase, in price. 4. They can, on account of their Large editions, daily and weekly) get their white paper from the paper makers at rates much lower than those given small publishers. Some of them can get paper s at makers' figures. NEWS ABOUT HOME. "A chSel's amang ye. takln' notes, An' faith he'll prent 1t." TOWN TOPICS.

Business jealuuaies, aa1 the "big- gest circulation" craze, have forced some e of the city weeklies into the cheap sub- scription tight. All of then. are willing to acknowledge that there is no money gained by the towering of the)' price. a The circulation of the country weekly is naturally circumscribed, few publishers looking for an extended circulation out- side of their own county. 11 the pub- pS luher of the country weekly gut no 1 more profit from each of hu one or two thousand subscribers than the city pub- lishers get front each of their twenty or forty thousand subscribers, he would quickly have to sell out -or "clear out." There is such a thing as qualify in a newspaper. A paper needs something more titan size and price to recommend t it. Brains are a part of the stock in i trade of an editor, and local items are always te I* preferred' to general news. The titan who buys Iiia newspaper by the yard admits that he has very poor taste. The local newspaper tills a void which nu city publication can do. It - is a re- flector of the minds and tastes of tlte. people of its district. •• It echoes their desires it advocates . their rights; it breathes forth their sentiments: it leads in every movement for the benefit of the home district. Its money is spent chietlyeamong its -patrons.; it gives- em- ployment to local labor; it is an. untiring advocate of local progress. It gives in a ver)•• full manner tate J.on.c news, and no outside sheet can do justice to that subject. A lire local newspaper is in- dispensible to the progress of a town or district.

Perhaps the following view of the sit- uation, from the Peterboro' P.• • ;•' e , may be of interest to some of our readers: - It becomes so coinh on a practice for publishers of weekly newspapers at this season of the year to hold out some special inducements to subscribers fur the ensuing year, and especially the new once, that our readere will easily- mider- stand that it is only after mature consid- eration, and for what appear good and efficient reagens that we have determined to abandon all such devices to catch a few stray subscribers. It is quite true that larger papers can be had for less money, lout we dispute the correctness of euclt a test in the case of papers any more than in that of books, No one ref' any intellistetice thinks of valuing a besk I by the quantity of paper it contains. it -1 is valued by the "brains" that have been put into it and eo should it be with a i newspaper.

Society vs. Stinson. -Thu was an action to set aside a conveyance made by William Stinson, of the township of Stanley, to his son Thomas, as fraudulent. It was held by the plaintitfa that a mort- gage given to them en lot 1ti, of the 22nd concession of Stanley, was insuf- ficient security for the money loaned, and they sought to set aside a convey- ance of lot 41, south boundary, so as to snake it liable for the balance of the debt incurred by the father. The evi- dence showed that the property was not worth the value fixed on it at the time of the :roan. The suit lasted until five o'clock in the afternoon, when a decree was given in favor o.f the plaintiff. The deed from the father t u the son of lot 41 was set aside, on the grounds that lot 16 in the 22nd concession of Stanley was of insufficient value for the loan, and, in the second place, that there was an tip - parent fraud in the transaction. Mr. Mose, assisted by Mr. Purdom, for the plaintiff, and Mr. M. G. Cameron, of Goderich, for the defendant. At the conclusion, His Lordship paid a warm compliment to the abilities Mr. Cameron had displayed in the case.
