But il we Republicans were disposed to fold or

If be deemed desirable by Republicans that THE TRI
BHB should be circulated in their several localities we
urge them that Clubs be made up and forwarded
in due The PostmaSters scml-oficiay ad-
nonshed not to aid circulation but urge instead
that OF Journals deemed sound and National by the
enmpatriots of Atchison and Sringfcow. We ask live
Republicans everywhere take that these efforts be
not effectua quench the light of Freedom in the
ky mists OF Slavery.
