Of .sThc Union" He finds many accomn;,I.a

, with it considerable accession of talents. Syst
tried and distinguished members Of the dem0,rl

have literally contributed their literary labou a III

Besides the time is not far distant when the edlo
tends to call other talents to his assistance Hu,l
bition is, to make his paper worthy Of the m.,pO.

official and other materials placed within ha r,c
