To Our Merchants.

Our merchants should remember
that the MESSENGER is the me-
medium to reach the colored
people of this city and county.
That their trade is of some conse-
quence, and the organ of the color
ed people should be patronized by
those who expect and live on color
ed trade. We expect our merchants
to advertize with us and shall call
on them in day or so. Those who
show themselves our friends shall
receive our patronage.

plcte our outfit. Now will some
young ladies, some young gentle
men, or old ladies or old gentlemen,
fix up plan by which they can
send us dollar or so. Will not
some Of our friends get up club
