NEW VOLUME OF THE UNION.

Volume nine of The UNION has
been completed and the present
number is the beginning of vol
ume ten, and we thank our patrons
for the aid they have extended in
the past and trust they will contin-
ne with us in the future.
Our aim shall be to improve the
Union and make it more interest
ing in the future than it has been
in the past
We again extend cordial invi-
tatlon to all those who can, to aid
us with original articles of various
kinds that shall tend to enliven
our columns or add to the news
thereof, and if everything is not in
strictly readable shape we will
SO arrange it that it will be suita-
BILE.
We must have a fair portion Of
cash to meet our cash expenses,
but we are willing to take the pro-
duce of the country from those
who cannot pay cash, yet we can
only allow the highest market cash
valuation for the same.
q.
We had intended enlarging the
present volume but circumstances
having connived against us and
prevented our completing arrange
ments for it, we shall be obliged to
continue the 4 column size for
season, but soon as we get our
press completed and our patronage
warrants an increased expenditure,
we shall increase the size.
