We have been requested by the publisher Of
the Patriot to state that since the last issue OIL
that paper, ION the 4th inst satisfactory arrange
ments for its publication have failed, and there
FORE its publication has been discontinued This
announcement would have been made sooner by
its late publisher, but he was assured that steps
would be taken to secure its continuation, which
has not been done, and he not being willing to
personally assume the responsibility, decided to
act in the premises as above stated.
As Republican journal the Patriot has never
been selfsustaining, and was published at an ex-
pense to only one member of the party, a. far
as the publisher knows No one has made any
money out Of the Office, and debts have been in
CURED which are yet unsettled, and nothing LEFT
in its publishers hands to meet them. (He is, in
fact, not responsible for any debts but what he
has himself personally made.)
