That I have done and cannot stand any further loss. If the party can afford to dispense with the aid of the Loyalist with its thousand circulation they can so decree and I will retire from the arduous and thankless contest. <hr /> Should the Union friends so decree let them make up a purse and forward to Salem by next Fridays Express addressed to myself.
