you in the house; and when your little‘ ones
take cold and commence c'ou'ghing',' give it to
them at once", and rest not until the cough is en-
tirely subdued. W'e consc'i‘entious_|y aver, af-

A "Word -to l'9"u"tl"_ §;atro1'is'.
, With this Na.of the Gazette we shall en-
'd’ea"vor tbsend out our bills as thoroughly as
may be, toall our patrons. "\Ve shall milkli
them out from the time of our last proprietor-
ship, Nov. lst 1850. to January lst l85‘2.—

are sure will not object to so doing when we
Cziudidly state the past; and present condition
of this -paper. _ __ _
There is nothing, perhaps, which ai1'"Edilor
more reluctm tly publislies, than a rehearsal of
his own privllle bnsiircss concerns, especially
when they are of an unftt‘J'drable character:——-
It is a well known fact which our friends. all
know and which we have no desire toyexcuse.
for nearly half a ceutury—was abominably con-
ducted. and as it deserved, aliomittitblv reduce“d
in point of patronage. ‘ But as our object is to
give a plain history of the matter, we will give
the figures. \Vhen we sold our interest
in the Liazette to Mt‘. Hoyt. bur i'e.gular weekly
edition was" 33' ~quires—~the jobbing and ad-
vertising patronage probably never ,had been
better. The phases the paper has taken since
is well known—suffice it to say Messrs. Reed dc
Hickock took it as assignees, with a circulation
we believe of less than "half that at which Mr.
Hoyt commenced. Under their éiiuiitagerneut
the paper began to increase. in interest and
character, and as a consequence increased in
patronage, until the time we were iticlilcetl to
resume the proprietorship of it. \~Ve l)er":;m'ie
the pItI'(:hfisl:l's of it with eittreme reluc.lan_ce,
ahd hot until we were well assured by our
friends that it would be grarifyinglo most of
its patrons. We accordingly asstuucd i_ts pro-_
_prieto‘rsl':i]f in November last--ivitll u"u,edition‘
of about 17 quires or 408 papers. We have
fnade every possible exertion to increase our
sphere of influehce and have advanced gradu-
ally until this week when our edition is 32
quires or ‘24"pa"péi-"s less than when we" left the
oflice 3' years ago. Our advertising patronage is
better than at that time and our .jobb"ng business
uite as good‘-—though many who had here-
tofore had their advertising and jobliiag doneat
this oflice.ihave.been so incensed at bad treat.-
meut, that it will doubtless be a long time be-
fore their patronage can again be brought b'ac'k.
\Ve were assured that when we left \Vash-
ington, the \Vhigs of -Notwalk would rally
loihe support of the paper, and whenwve con-
sider that in less than 12 months we haveabout
doubled our circulation, we can averwith grat-
itude that the pledge has been kept; still there
areniany, very m.-‘my, active and influential
\Vhigs about us, who . are" always ready to"
give their time and money to a'dvance our glori-
ous cause. who do not ante it, and who do not
consider that if their principles are worth any-
thing. they "cannot advance them" so clie":ip’lj>
in any other way. \Ve do not believe there
fire 100‘individunls ,in the_ tqwnlof Norwalk
who do not regularly read the" Gazette, yet
probably not more than one family in; ten sub-
scribe for it. \Ve.have no complaints to utter
nor beggingsermous to preacli. we simply ask is
