We have endeavored to render our paper
as interesting and worthy support as the cir

have succeeded is for our patrons to say, Our
exertions shall not cease here, for we intend
to at least to try and print paper that will
merit and receive living support. 1t is a
difficult matter to make paper as interesting
where the support is so very limited as it has
been here, as it might otherwise be. Then
to render the paper interesting, let us have
your support. We commenced the publica-
ton under no very encouraging circumstances
and have kept up our paper with very great
difficulty, and now wish our friends to give US
u little more aid.

heretofore appeared in it, being Democratic
