Such being the fact, we need not dwell upon the

We beg particularly TO notice that their m brand
still bears the same name of Heidsieck q Co., in

TIME Ninth Volume of this Paper being
1 about to be commenced the proprietor and
editor after making his grateful Acknowledgements
for the steady support which he has received dur
ing the last eight years, respectfully solicits a
continuance Of the same and such additional Snp-
port as will enable him 10 continue his paper, as
an independent journal, and in the support OF
those conservative and constitutional principles
which were involved in the late municipal cleo
tion and which il is his fixed purpose TO maintain,
so long as he is connected with this or any other
public journal On his future course the editor
deems il unnecessary TO dilate. Suffice it TO say,
that while the original plan Of his paper will be
duly carried out, the editor will also feel himself
bound by the convictions Of duty and propriety, TO
maintain the constitutional rights Of every native
and adopted citizen, and TO oppose every secret
organization that is founded on proscriptive and
exclusive basis. What he intends TO do in this
respect may be Judged of by what he has already
written and published in the columns of this Jour
nal To his friends, and the friends of civil and
religious liberty, he respectfully appeals for ade-
quate encouragement.
