facilities afforded at this point for
collecting the Iatestevents tlat trans

the public to sustain a journal at
this place devoted to the advance

We have labored faithfully,
through evil report, and through
good report for the last ten years
in publishing a paper in Yazoo
City; and. during that whole period,
what patronage we have received,
was voluntarily and generously
rendered, without an effort on our
part to obtain It. Our interests are
identified with those of Yazoo City
here we have reared family
and, here we expect to end the bal
ance of our days.
To effect the improvemements
contemplated in the VINO, we shall
necessarily be compelled to incur
considerable extra expense and,
to enable us to do this, we have
issued this PROSPECTUS, with the
view to add additional subscribers
to our list.
We have determined to make
the Vino worthy of a liberal and
generous support and, we now
lcallupon our friends to use theirin-
fuence and aid to accomplish this
lobiect. Two or three hundred ad-
ditionalsubscribers, and a more Ex-
TENDED patronage from our adyer-

we can confidently assure our pat
