TO ?TTR SUBSCRIBERS. We desire to call attention to the printed addresses and dates on our papers. We shall be pleased to correct any errors that have oc? curred. Each subscrioef s account is append? ed to his address. Some of our subscribers owe for their sub? scription to both the Watchman and the South? ron. In such cases we have put the amount due by them to Aug. 2., 81. For instance : John Dob, 1.70 aug; 2, 81, means that John Doe owes one dollar and seventy ceuts up to Aug, 2, 1881. This in? cludes his indebtedness to both papers. In other cases, where but one paper was sub? scribed to, we have simply put the date of that subscription, indicating that the person owes from that date or has paid up to that date. _ Crowded Out.
