We say to our friends and patrons, we
give joy and gladness in returning to you
thanks for the part you have already taken
in sustaining this paper as the grand con-
servative of the best interest of this glorious
Republic-for the success we have, and for
the prospects that present themselves to our
consideration. Nearly three months have
passed since we commenced issuing our
Fountain, and we have now issued our 34th
number, tri-weekly. This commences a
daily paper, to be continued for the interest
not only of Temperance men, as such, but
business men, for the purpose of throwing
before the people information, at cheap
rate, on matters interesting to all.


To Messrs. Dow and Fisk, of the United
States Journal, we feel ourselves under obli-
CATION. 1t was owing to their kindness that
we have had the use of a press. They
have acted in this matter like gentlemen,
like friends. They have our thanks, our
well wishes. And when this Fountain
shall be pouring forth its rivulets, streams,
rivers, and oceans, to bless mankind, if liv-
ing, we shall remember that it was by the
kindness Of these gentlemen that we were
first permitted to open up this Fountain to
the inhabitants of the District, and to send
forth streams for the healing and preserving
of the nations.
