Our receipts, (as Martin Van Buren said
about his chances for nomination, in ls44,) |
are growing small by degrees, and beau
tifully less" But we live in hopes that
better days viii attend us yet. The friends
Of temperance will do themselves and the
cause, vast amonnt Of good by using their
utmost epdeaYors toincrease the circulation
Of the Organ. We are always ready 70 re-
cord the names Of subscribers, and acknOw-
ledge the receipt of the "material aid. ."
We hope our friends will remember the Or
gan in all their meetings-as many would
take. the paper at these meetings, if they
only had solicitation.
Bro. A. H, Plant, Of Maumee City, o.,
sends us three names and $3.0O-one of
them, (wm. Holt,) releasing his subscrip-
ton to the Fountain list, commencing with
No. Of the Organ. In his letter, the Bro.
says " will work for you and do the best
can, and forward on the dimes as fast
as can collect. think something hand
some can be done as soon as navigation is
fairly open, and business more brisk. The
cause in this place is rather declining in
interest 10 the superficial observer but We
have band of determined and true princi
pledmen who work for the cause, and We
think, whatever Ram may do in other pla
ces, in this vicinity we have check upor
him. In other words, we hold the balanc,
of power in our hands"
Bro. David A. Green, of Moscow Mills
o., sends us $l.OO for the Organ eigh
months, and relinquishes his claim to tht
Fountain list.
Bro. s. R. Tucker. D. G. W. P. of Ora
tiot, o., sends $500 for three copies of tn,
Organ.
Bro. Robt. W. Steele, of Dayton, o., send
us $l.5O for the Organ, commencing will
No. /, and relinquishing his claim to tn
Fountain list. The Brother uses very stron,
language, and whether it is Just or not, W
leave for others to say. We quote iron
his letter Amy temperance man ac
quainted with the sacrifices of editors ant
ProPrietors to sustain the paper in time
past, would be guilty of great meanness
he were unwilling to bear the trihing los
to which he would be subjected as an indi
vidual, rather than to embaTass the presen
enterprise with the debts of the old con
Germ"
II every temperance man in Ohio were il
possession of the same liberal and generou
spirit as Bro. Steele, how much better woulC
it be for Temperance and Temperance pub
locations ? We thank Bro. S. for his liber
ality, and hope that his loss may be an
others gain.
Bro. R. E. Pryor, of Eaton, o., sends 81 o.

Bro. L, Mackay, of New Paris, O., send
$l.00 for the Organ, and relinquishes tn
claim of Bro. Morrison to the Fountain
list.
Bro. E. Hughes, of Gilmore, o., send
three new names, and $500 on account
i The Brother informs us that the cause is nc
very hourishing, West Union Division bein
the only temperance organization in tn
southern end of the county, (Tuscarawas.
) The Brother says that on the south Of hin
for the distance of twenty miles, darknes
| reigns triumphant-that they never hear
of the great Maine Liquor Law and tn,
they are in perfect ignorance as to tn
movements of the friends of temperance
Ohio. They are happy set of people, an
some philanthropist would cover himse
with imperishable glory, by sending fe
copies of the Organ to throw in few ray
| of light upon their benighted souls.
