The Wyandot pioneer. (Upper Sandusky, Ohio) 1853-1868, 1857-07-02

The present number closes our connec
ton with the HyondH Pioneer. The es
tablishment has. been purchased by Mr.
G. 6, MUee, Of this place, by whom the
paper viii hereafter be conducted.
1t is with some degree of regret that
we rellnqaish the editorial charge of the
Pioneer at this time, but circumstances
over which we had no control have induced
us to retire from a position which. though
not pecunlarily profitable, is nevertheless
in many respects pleasant and agreeable.
During the year that we have had
charge of the Pioneer, we have endeavor
ed to do our dsty, and give satisfaction
to our patrons. How far we have sue
ceeded in this, is not for us to say. It
would, indeed be an anomaly should an
editor succeed in pleasing all his patrons
IN every particular. We have attempted
no such thing but if there are those who
have been dissatisfied with our general
course, we have net heard of them
This much we may remark by way of
apology-that if the paper, under our
administration, has not been all that our
Republican friends of Wyandot expected,
it has, at least, been as efficiently con-
Quoted as the limited support extended
10 it would admit Had we been able to
devote more time to the editorial depart
ment of the paper and less to the me-
chanical duties of the office, we should
have done better but we soon found
that the most rigid economy was necessa-
ry in order to keep the paper afoat.-I
However, we think we can say, without
subjecting ourself TO the charge Of ego
tism, that the Pioneer for the past year
has compared favorably with other pa
pers in northwestern Ohio.
And now word in reference to Re-
publican prospects. That the principles
Of the Republican party are certain to
prevail throughout our nation, we enter
5ain no doubt. They are founded in
Truth, and "truth is mighty and wiA pre-
7ail.' The eternal principles of Justice
md Right form their bases, and must
eventually give to them force and effica- !
y. They harmonize with the letter and
pirit of our national Constitution, and {
he teachings of the fathers of the repub- {
ic-therefore, they must sooner or later
'ring to their support all who recognize L
he authority of the one and revere the '
memory of the other To assert tie con- a
rary, would be to declare that republican U
Institutions are failure-that man is in n
apacltated for self-goyernment-thatsl sla- Il
cry is the natural and normal condition
the masses of mankind. Though de- b
sated In 1856, the Republican party has n
ot suffered itself to become disbearten- n
d, but is alive and active, constantly re- II
Giving new accessions to its ranks, and :
1860 we believe the great Southern
lalakoff will be successfully stormed, b
nd its defenders driven to an inglorious P
Irrender. Fl
