fiS" A le t ter X on the margin opposite this notice is made to indicate to the subscriber that his subscrip-t ion will exp i re with the nex t number . We trust that t h e in teres t of no person will exp i re with his subscrip-
t s - The Editor will hc accessible to his f r iends and the public only on each Wednesday, at the publication office, a few doors east of Broadway.
Let m> contributor conclude, because we post-pone or respectfully decline the publication of an arti-c le , tha t we are ," therefore , prejudiced against the wr i t e r of it, nor tha t we necessarily enter ta in senti-men t s hostile to his. We shall make every reasonable effort to satisfy both reader and correspondent.
Non-official letters and unbusiness correspond-ence (which the wr i t f r s design for only the editor 's perusa l ) should be superscribed " pr ivate " or " confl d e n t i a l . "
,63" The real name of each contributor must bc im-par ted to the Editor ; though, of course, i t will be with-he ld from the public, if desired.
«$*T We are earnestly laboring to pulverize all seeta rian creeds and to fraternize the spiritual affections of mankind. Will you work with us '
