Reader. you have seen the low and cowardly
neerOf the press for the last few months, charg
ing Us with owing our present existence to the
Contributions of the persons in the States, whose
confidence we have betrayed. The loss of our
al and months of CALLING Imprisonment, and
Jeas Of toll, is not sacrificing enough from us
idr the cause, but base men must seek to rob us
q our character, and charge us with being beg
gIfs, because we have accepted of temporary re-
ief 10 aid us in starting our business again.

ars, they have been published, and the world
slows who they are.
