Suspended Publication

With its issue of Saturday, the Ecsn-

over two years, announced its suspen
sion We say after a struggle, and If
any one doubts that it is a struggle to
publish daily paper, let it be of ever Sc.
modest pretensions, let him try 1t for
season. especially If he be a person ae-
custemed TO his freedom and nbert ' and
we venture to assert that he will retire
In disgust We don't hesitate to saw
that it has been a struggle with us 10
publish THE CAPITAL, and il still a strug-
gle; and It has only been by perseveran ce
indomitable courage, close application
to business, strict economy, and the
practice of self denial, and the co-opera-
ton Of the publisher and his sons, that
the CAPITALhas been able 10 overcome the
many trials and difficulties that hath be-
set 1t. This, and this only, has brought
to 1t the success it has achieved, and we
still hope, that by the same perseverance
and application to business, to merit the

pie 1t so humbly endeayors to serve
promising in the future that its zeal in
chronicling all local events and other
news of the day of interest, will not be
lessened. In the suspension Of the Bul-
tettn, Brother Riley has our coincidence
in his misfortune, If misfortune it can be
called, for we doubt not that the Bulletin
has been an improbable source to It's
editor, and its suspension has been his
gain.
