pleasure in commencing to the kind consid-
GRAFTON OF the old friends and patrons Of the
Office. The editorial department OF the PAT
BLOT will continue under the charge Of tho
gentlemen who have heretofore conducted il.
IN making this new arrangement, the Pro
prietors of the PATRIOT have been prompted
By desire to increase the profits Of their
business, rs well as in party sense, 10 ez-
gerd the usefulnes. and influence of their
Journal. With the large accession to their
subscription lists, giving their issues an IL
crease Of circulation which places them in
The front rank as advertising media, and
sae augmentation Of material in the jobbing
department, re think they may safely caicu-
late upon such an increase Of business in
girez in this respect; whilst, al The same. time,
Ihe extended area IN which We are placed.
The increased number O. minds and hearts
1 which We can address ourselves, win afford
VI abundant opportunity TO extend orr use

plant that the number Of journals. on our
side, in this city, by d Hpsins the pat
rouage of the party. and dividing its coun-
eels, has been an ele nent Of weakness. With
ont admitting or denying The business ofihis

and glory of the republic.
We trust that the business men Of Nash

their patronage upon ell the dailies in our
city, win appreciate the step which we have

won this mark Of their esteem, Independent
of the increased advantages the combination
offers to them es advertisers.
So soon as we can get our business ar
ranged, We propose TO enlarge cur papers,
and to print them upon new types.
We are not addicted TO the habit Of making
promises. We prefer to let our course speak
for itself Without further remark, therefore.
