plished men in this city. The administration has
brought with it considerable accession of talents.
Several tried and distinguished members oflhe DEM
ocratic party have accepted Office under it. Some of
them have literally contributed their literary labors
to our benefit; and we hope to enlist others in
service. Besides, the time is not far distant when
the editor intends to call other talents his assis-
lance. His ambition IS, TO make his paper worthy
of the metropolis Of the Union. He is persuaded
him To employ; with the official and other materials
placed within his reach; and with the aid Of the
respondence which he is attempting to establish in
foreign countries, paper may be published, which
is not unworthy of the support Of his country. In
undertaking the task, he knew he had many difficult
ties to overcome, many lessons learn, many sacri
fees to encouaer. He knew that, amid the arduous
cares Of a new theatre, he could not at at first do

under which the President was elected, and the great
principles of the party. So long the admInistra-

cipes, he is prepared TO cooperate with them in the
public service; and 10 give them. AS he promised
in his prospectus, ga fair, liberal and efficient sup

We feel deep sense of gratitude for the prompt
manner in which our political friends, in every sec

sustain the Union. May not hope that friends
throughout the United States will continue to assist
our labors, and prevail upon their friends 10 take
some edition of the "Union."
