To OUR FRmNDs.-We commenced the publica-
ton of the Chronicle with the determination Of ma
king it a good family newspaper and one too that
would reflect credit upon city, when sent abroad
We think we can say, without egotism, that we
have made improvement in the typographical
appearance and arrangement Of the paper. As to
the editorial department. we believe that the politi-
cal articles by Mr.. Thomas, have given general sat
isiaction, and have placed him. in the estimation of
the public at the head of the editorial fraternity in
the State But We arc not satisfied with only little
improvemcnt--we desire to keep pace with the pro-
gressive spirit that pervades every department of
trade---and to do this, we must ask subscribers
and friends to come up to our support with that de-
gree of aid and com ort which such enterprise mer
its. The Chronicle has never reached paying cir
cuation, and we are honestly convinced that it is
not our fault; for we give paper fully commensu-
rate with our patronage.
Let our friends exert themselves little in our be-
half, and they can very soon double, yea, treble
the subscription-wh we will be enabled to pro-
cure the necessary outfit to enlarge and otherwise
improve our Journal and come in competition with
the leading papers in the country-and at the same
time enable to keep at home the vast quantity Of
printing that is sent abroad to the detriment Of the
printing Offices of the entire South. A number Ct
our business men get their printing done in the
North, and give a reason, that it is because they
get cheaper. The mechanic might Will the same
propriety get lis goods at the North--simply be-
he can get better bargains. Under this state
of things is it any wonder that we cannot do cheap
work, when the great bulk Of it is taken from our
hands and carried TO the North, to enable them to
procure the facilities requisite TO do cheap work
This class Of persons, are the first to cry down the
bad work. as they call it here when they are yearly
taking the aid out of the country that would enable
the home mechanic to come in honorable COMPETE
ton with the Northern artisan. These are home
spun truths, and we ask fault-fnders of Southern
work to ponder them.
Give us your work. aid and influence, and we
promise you ere long paper that you will proud
to call your own. We are doing u fair business,
but desire to extend -nud il Is for the public to
say whether we shall do so or not

has been robbed of a truly rational, vrtuous and

Mr.. Harris for number Of years, feel that word,

many excellent qualities. Nor is this appreciation
confined to a limited number of his acquaiutances,
for all who knew him, loved him. For sobrctv
affection for, and attention to his family he wa,
indeed remarkable; attentive to, and energetic in
his business pursuits and strictly honest in dealing,
with others, he had gathered around himself, q
host Of friends, whom he tendery loved aud in
their turn almost worshipcd him, Volumes could
be written in praise of VIM HARRIS, but this is moi
my privilege, ! offer this, by way of condoinp
with his many friends ut a distance. Nothing, bu
the hope Of his eternal happiness, can console hi
beraved Mother brothers, and sisters. May theI
journey through life be ar peaceful, and happy a,
