nsg- It will doubtless be o source Of

MSFs 1t will doubtless be source Of
qualification to the friends of this paper
to know, that although it has started out,
as il were, on o new era in the history Of
its existence, yet there is to be no disso.
citation therefrom, in the former personnel
of the establishment. Messrs. G. A. PIKE
and J. c. CHARLOTTE will continue as
apart and parcel" of the same, lending
their mutual aid and attention to the
affairs and interests of the concern.
In becoming party to the new ASSOC
cia, ion for conducting the business of the
Gazette and Comet, we have much cause
for SELF graduation in the fact, that our
associates are gentlemen whom we have
known since early boyhood; who were our
cotemporaries in Baton Rouge during o
series of years prior to the war; who by
course of integrity, industry, ability and
proper management have weathered sue
cessfully the storm of adversely through
which the country has passed; and who
by their tact and experience will no: fail
to be 3 every help indeed in enabling us
to meet the acquisitions imposed upon our
editorial calling.
Joining with them in patriotic devo-
ton to the welfare and interests Of the
community as well as to our restored
country, as whole, We set out exultant in
the hope and belief, that our relations TO-
wards one another and towards the public
at large, will prove mutually agreeable
and acceptable.
