Time to devote all his energies to the improves.
of "The Union" He finds many accomrI.s.
men in this city. The administration has bm'.s
with it considerable accession of talents. ~.
tried and distinguished members of the demo,r'
party have accepted office under it. Some Of MI
have Literally contributed their literary labop Ill
benefit; and we hope to enlist others in our wr, /
Besldes the time Is not far distant when the edrmI
tends TO call other talents to his assistance HAL
bition is, to make his paper worthy of the melr,ndI
ofthe Union. He is persuaded that, with the6cjEsl
which his position enables him to employ; with Mi
official and other materials placed within his rdI
and with the aid of the correspondence which i, II
attempting to establish in foreign countries, MI
may be published, which is not unworthy Of vi
support of his country. In undertaking The MI
he knew he had many difficulties to overcome, uaI
lessons to learn, many sacrifices to encounter M
knew that, amid the arduous cares of new thsuI
he could not at first do Justice even to himself MI
his zeal has never tagged. What enthusiasm MI
industry can effect, will be fully accomplished
Some errors he may have already committed D!l
upon one point, he can speak with great peau,]
and with equal freedom. The men who are sdnnl
istering this government are workng-men anxiu'
as he believes, to do their duty to serve their ou
try, to carry out the pledges under which the Pa
dent was elected, and the great principles Of The
ty. So long as the administration is conducted
this spirit, and upon those principles, he is prps
to cooperate with them in the public service; ID
to give them, as he promised in his prospectus i
fair, liberal, and efficient support"
We feel deep sense of gratitude for the prom
manner in which our political friends in every ~
ton of the country have already come forvms

May we not hope that our friends throughout
United States will continue to assist our labor u
prevail upon their friends to take some one edia
