To the friends Of Temperance and the
public generally we now make our appeal
in behalf Of this paper. The publisher
feeling it matter of importance to the In
terest of the Temperance cause in the Dis
trict, as well as the general interest Of the
cause, and having been, as he conceives,
Providentially placed in situation at this
time when he can mingle this interest with
that of the business men, and thereby rem
der double service to the community, and
still further open medium of communica-
ton by which our principles may be ex-
tended far and wide, at cheap rate. He
has purchased a printing establishment, so
as not only to be able to put daily paper
regularly to press, but also weekly; and
still further, be able to do any other print
ing the public may be pleased to have done;
and he assures them that they shall have
no cause Of complaint He has made ar
rangements by which he can devote his
time to the interest of the Office and the pa
per; and, having employed Mr.. Charles W..
Fenton, who will be always on the spot to
conduct the printing, he has no doubt but
that general satisfaction will be given. We
shall make arrangements to have the earliest
news; also the proceedings of Congress.
We wish all who are indebted for the pa
per up to this time to pay up, as the affairs
Of the tri-weekly must be closed. They
will perceive that we are about to give
them better paper, double the number, at
the same price.
While the "CoLUMBIAN FOUNTAIN" will
be devoted to the cause of Temperance, its
columns will be enriched by original articles
on subjects calculated to interest," instruct,
and benefit its readers. II is intended SO to
blend variety, amusement, and instruction,
as that the various tastes of its patrons may
be las far as it is practicable) grati6ed.
Commerce, Literature, and Science, and
every other subject Of interest, not inconsis-
tent with Temperance and morality, will re-
ceive the earnest attention of the publishers.
Nothing of a sectaran, political, or personal
character will be admitted.

presented and believed. by Mr.. VIM. r. Myers, who. nc.

the assault. Mr.. Hoyt was twice wounded, one ball enter.
ing ms head Just above the eve, and the other one of HI.
thighs, and woundins also the other. Late yesterday even.
ing he was alive but we understand that there is n very
slight prospect OF his surviving has wounds.
The cause of this tragical affair has boon the subisc, n,
remark IN this place for several days past, and the even,
therefore has excited 90 surprise here. The injury said 10
have been inflicted upon Mr.. Myers by MI. Hoyt, in the
mos, delicate relation of life. was Of such charse,er .-
to justify. IN the eyes Of all men, the most summary punish
meni. II Hoyt was guilty OF the act charged. cit wa a
gnevoss fault. and grievously has he answered it, We
understand that after he was shot, Hoyt made oa,h. before
a magistrate, that he was innocent. On the other hand
Mr.. Myers hal evidence in his possession Of his guilt. ,ha,
would have been by most men deemed conclusive.
Mr.. Myers and the two friends who accompanied him
made no effort ioescaPe, and they were arrested at his house
during the day. The case came on before the Mayor last
evening, ad the parties were bailed. each in the sum of
$4,000, until Wednesday next. They were ready to pro-.
coed with the examination al once, but there being no evil
denee before the Court inculPaung them, the case was de-
ferTed, Tor the purpose. it is understood, OF procuring ,estt-
mony. MessTs. James Lyons, Robert G. Scot; and Gusta.
