TERMS AND CONDITIONS. 



Two Dollars and Fifty Cents per annum, or Two 

 Dollars only, if paid in Advance. 



Subscriptions may begin with any Number, but it 

 is desirable that they should be made to the end of a 

 volume. 



Subscribers who do not give express notice to the 

 contrary on or before the expiration of their yearly 

 Subscription, will be considered as wishing to con- 

 tinue the same ; and the paper will be sent accord- 

 ingly. 



No paper will be discontinued until all arrearages 

 are paid, except at our option. 



Sub scribers are requested to remit the amount of 

 their Subscription as goon as the same shall become 

 due. 



If Subscribers neglect or refuse to take their papers 

 from the Office or place to which they are sent, they 

 will bo* held responsible until they settle their account 

 and give notice to discontinue. 



If Subscribers remove, change their offices, or per- 

 mit their paper to be sent to an office tbat has been 

 discontinued, without directing a change of their pa- 

 per, and the paper is sent to the former direction, they 

 will be held responsible. 



All Payments to the Southern Planter will be ac- 

 knowledged in the first paper issued after the same 

 shall have been received. 



All money remitted to us will be considered at our 

 risk only when the letter containing the same shall 

 have been tegistered. This rule is adopted not for our 

 protection, but that of our correspondents ; and we 

 wish it distinctly understood that we take the. risk 

 only when this condition is complied with. 



It is indispensably necessary tbat subscribers re- 

 mitting their Subscription, should name the Office to 

 which their papers are sent; and those ordering a 

 change should say from what to what post office they 

 wish the alteration made. A strict observance of this 

 rule will save much time to us and lose cone to them 

 besides insuring attention to their wishes. 



Postmasters are requested to notify us in writing 

 as' the law requires, when papers are not taken from 

 their Offices by Subscribers.

A FRIEND OF THE RIGHT STAMP. 



Since the issue of our enlarged number in January, 

 we are in the daily receipt of the most flattering let- 

 ters from our friends, as well as the most complimen- 

 tary notices and expressions of good will from our 

 brethren of the press. But (we confess our weakness) 

 none has given us more sincere pleasure than the one 

 now before us fiom which we make the following ex- 

 tract to prove to our friends that what we have here- 

 tofore asserted is easy of attainment if they will but 

 interest themselves in our behalf. Put to the letter. 



"February 9th, 1857. 



•"Agreeably to promise, when in Richmond. I now 



send you Forty Dollars, with twenty subscribers for 

 the Planter. 1 am now endeavoring to make up an- 

 other list, and I think the chance is preltv good for 

 twenty more." 



The writer of the above was in our office less than 

 a fortnight ago. when he promised to obtain us a few 

 subscribers. He has gone to work like a man. and in 

 less than ten days since his return home has sent us 

 a good list and the money in advance. He has our 

 hearty thanks and our best wishes for his abundant 

 success in his future efforts. Will not other of our 

 friends follow the good example thus set?
