EFWe acknowledge the receipt Of a
letter from DR.. Rise. Of Fremont, Ohio,
containing remittance, and new subscri'
bers TO the t" True American.
A few such friends as the Doctor
would in a short time place our paper
upon footing far above the reach of
Hunker hostility, by entirely y relieving us
from pecuniary embarrassment. We
know we have many friends, who wish
us well, personally, and who desire the
prosperity Of our paper, but that desire
in too many instances has not as yet had
the practical effect 10 induce them to put
forth their influence 10 extend the circula-
lion Of the paper, by procuring new sub
scribers, with the cash in advance. A
very slight effort by each of our friends
would accomplish wonders. Many Of
you remember the predictions which were
uttered, more than two years ago, that,
" our enterprise would fail in three, or
at the farlhest, six month";" Thus far
they have proved to be false prophets, and
now after an experiment of nearly two
and a.half years there appears 70 be less
prospect Of their realizing their desires.
than at the beginning. Still, however,
we need The cooperation OF our friends,
old and new. The character Of our pa.
per is fully established, i.has passed ,hro'
the ordeal, and although the ordeal has
been fiery one, We rejoice to know that
like gold tried in the FIRE it has stood the
test. In this connection allow US 10 say
to our subscribers in this county, who
are in deb. for the paper, that fine op-
portuniy will be presented for them to
send in, or hand over their subscription,
on the occasion of the sitting of the Court
Of Common Pleas, on Tuesday, the 10th
inst. Come friends VIC very much desire
to see you, and We are in real earnest
when we say that we would like 10 ham
die little of your spare change.

the several divisions but they are not TO
be regarded as contractors, but merely as
employees Of the Board. The contract
ors have declined selling to the Board, as
they might have done under the law, any
portion fthsir tools and implements.
The contractors feel confident that the
courts will decide the contracts with the
State legal and binding, and void of fraud;
and they intend to bring suit in the Com
mon Pleas or Superior courts OF this
county Immediately. or as soon as the ne
cessary papers can be made out, to test
their right.
The law does not say explicitly that
the contractors shall be restored to their
full rights under these contracts, even il
the courts decide them legal and binding
upon the State but leaves il optional with
the Board of Public Works to restore
them if in their judgment the interests oI
the State will be favored by it. which is
the bad feature of the law, as it is the
repudia,icn Of contracts with a "proviso,' >
and was cowardly dodge on the part Of
the Legislature to put responsibility
upon the board Of public works which
they had not the nerve 10 assume them
! selves,
