continue to devote all his energies to the improve
ment of the ''The Unon.'' He finds many accom-
plshed men in this city. The administration has
brought with Il considerable accession of talents.
Several tried and distinguished members oithe dem
ocratic party have accepted office under it, Some Of
them have literally contributed their literary labors
to benefit and we hope 10 enlist others in our
service. Besides, The time is not far distant when
the editor intends TO call other talents TO his asss
lance. His ambition Is, To make his paper worthy
of the metropolis Of the Union. lie is persuaded
that, with the facilities which his position enables
him To employ; with the official and other materials
placed within his reach and with the aid Of The
respondence which he is attempting 10 establish in
foreign countries, IA 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 overcome, many lessons learn, many sacri
fees to encoualer. lie knew that, amid The arduous
cares ola theatre, he could not at at first do
Justice to himself; but his zeal has flag
ged. What enthusiasm and industry can effect, will
be fully accomplished. Some errors he may have
already committed. But upon point, he can
speak with great pleasure and with equal freedom.
The men who are administering this government are
working men, anxious, as he belle YES, 10 do their
duty TO their country, TO carry out the pledges
under which the President elected and the great
principles of the party. So long the adminisira-
ton is conducted in this spirit, and upon those prin-
cpes, he is prepared to cooperate with them in the
public service; and to give them. he promised
in his prospectus, ga fair, liberal aud efficient sup
port"
We feel deep sense of gratitude for the prompt
manner in which our political friends, in every
ton Of the country, have already come forward to
sustain the Union. May not hope that our friends
