"Neighbour Do-right." ' 2 From the Cape Fear Recorder, ?Mr. Editor, 1 I wish to become i sub scriber to your paper, and send . you three dollars in advance. As I - IMir tormL' t-omntv Kiif in f rtnllnr

Jid fifty cents you may wonder at this j but, when I - tell you ' an anecdote, which occurred when I was a young man, concerning a Printer, yoi will wonder no lon- , ger. The district in which I resided need not be mentioned, nor the printer. After having been a Subscriber for several months, I called at his office to pay my advance. I remarked to hinv that all about him appeared to wear the face of industry, and that he must certainly be doing well.The following dialogue then ensued : ' Printer. Yes sir, we have plenty of work. Your expences must be very great, but our district has been Very liberal ; I suppose you have a hundred subscribers among us? Printer. Yes Sir and more ; but I, believe you are the third or fourth gentleman that has paid inadvaace. Oh ! a little piece of neglect on their part j they will, no doubt, call when they come to town. Printer. -I hope they will, sir; but I am afraid this little piece of neglect, on their part, will be the ruin of me. - Not at all ; not at all ; .you have been able to meet all demands I hope. ' Printer. Yes, sir, I shall be able for some months to come ; but 1 hen I may want all arrearages settled. 1 left him with many well wishes as I believe Jie deserved success. But in about a year af terwards, he gave up the business .as unprofitable (very disagreeable alternative,) lost 18 or 20 months Jabor, and was barely able to square accounts ; soever since I have determined to comply with the terms of a newspaper. Why should I not ? Are they not as binding as any other contract ? And though a printer is, and ought to be considered a gentleman, I have understood that no class of our citizens work - harder for their money. As Printers are fond of picking up every little scrap, I suspected you would insert my letter and therefore you will conceal my name Folks will think I am in my doatage, if I write for newspars at this time of life, and being a batchelor, I wish to conceal my age and name as far as possible. We reluctantly comply wich the gentleman's request, to conceal his name ; but as he ought not to appear in the world with

out one we will call him, Neighbor Do-right.
