The labors OF the journal and its contempora-
rics throughout the State have been cxertcd
not to niiane the PASSIONS, bit to reach the
judgements OF thinking and considcrate men
ni all parties. Grave ali stubborn facts have
nrcn adduCcd tn show that the Whir marty of
Ohio have fulfilled all their pledges and nur
sucda course calculated to promote the perm
auent prosperity and honor of the State. Al
the same time the acts aud proceedings OF
,heir opponents, III and out OF the Legislature,

sed, that all might decide for themselves

character. II the considerations and facts
presented were duly weighed and allowed to
exert their proper influence the result cannot
DE- doubtful. We say now. as we said before
election. "a full vote isa Wing victory" The
result will attest the truth of The remark. OF
that result, in detail, we NAV speak al the
proper time, when the facts are fully before
US. We ash only an impartial verdict as 10
our labcrs.
On more than one occasion we have said that
the State Journal does not receive the amount
of patronage il should. in order to render its
ldbors effective While we arc thankful for
what has been done. and for the assurances ..
confidence and appreciation that have been
teHdefed by friends in various sections of the
State, aud by our contemporaries of the Wing
press, duty TO ourselves compels us 10 say
that our subscription list is not adequate TO the
support OF such paper as we have wished 10
furnish the Wings of Ohio, and as the impor-
lance OF the State, in the political scales.
seems 10 demand To make a Paper efficient
IN all Its departments, and 10 secure to its
columns that amount of labor necessary re-
qulres heavy outay-much heavier than is
generally supposed.
The subscription list, Of itself ought TO be
sufficient TO meet this outlay. 1t is not now
and has not been, and il &C had to depend on
II alone, long since, even with the present
outlay, we should have been compelled TO call
on our friends To put their shoulders to the
wheel. Confidence in the good intentions of
the Wings OF Ohio, and abiding hope that they
would ultimately be induced to step forward
aud render liberal support TO their central
press has impellcd us forward and enabled us
TO keep our flag aloft. We are not disposed
to strike ii yet, nor do we fecl as though we
could longer rest satisfied with any thing so
unsubstantial as this hope. Its frui,on will
alone compensate us for our labors. Il large
accession TO Our subscription IL, will alone
cma nlc us TO do justice TO ourselves and the
wings OF C,Iiu IN the publication of the. Jour.
nal. united. hearty effort in every section
oil the State, would secure a subscription list
adequate to the publica;i lion of such paper as
the Wings Of Ohio need. Shall such an effort
be made! Not by one or two Wings i'm each
Congressional District, but by the faithful and
reliable Wings of every county. An addition
OF live thousand subscribers TO the list of the
Journal could be made, not only without de-
tracing III the least from the circulation of
the iountry papers, bat rnuch to their advan
iHgc. There are few, very few subscribers on
our list, ont of this county, t8ho do not take
their own County papers. No man should
be without his own County paper, and no
efficient Wing will fail 10 derive advantage
from having, in addition, the Central Wing
journal. Those who have made the trial are
satisfied OF this fact. Yet, how many Wings
there are in every county who have expected
much OF the State Journal, (much more, it may
be, than they have ever TealizetD who have
scarcely ever thought of such thing as send
ing In their names as subscribers. How linn
taken so much trouble "a to say To a neighbor
or friend you should take the Wing paper of
,he Capitol" Is this right? Are the Wings
OF Ohio, the first State o. tie West, the third
in the Union, III political importance, utterly
indifferent to the support of Central journal,
devoted to the propagation OF their sentiments?
/ At cannot be.-ta.ity vii. not longer suffer the
Journal to labor with meagrc support They
will not, we trust, suffer It's usefulness TO be
impaired, its energies 10 be paralyzcd, by a
| limited circulation.
| AhcarIlcst of our desire to serve them faith
fully and to furnish them with paper that
will not suffer by a comparison with others in
the West, isgiven to our friends to-day. We
have secured a new and bea Siiul dress for the
Journal. This has been done at heavy cx-
pcnse, and for the benefit of our readers.
How we shall be compensated for the effort
! IN their behalf, we leave them to answer.
! But may we not ask, earnestly ask the gallant
/ Wings OF Ohio with whom we have struggled
/ i'll victory and defeat, to lend us a good lCord
and tittk la69r to exteRtl the circulation of
our paper? The labor thus given shall be re-
turned TO them in full measure We await a
