No. 52. completes one year since its first publication:--The Editor returns the most grateful thanks to such as have encouraged his undertaking--and while he acknowledges the obligations he is under to those who have already complied with the terms of his subscription, whereby he has been enabled to prosecute his business thus far, he begs leave to acquaint those who still remain in arrears, that he shall, in the course of the next week, wait on them for payment---. The terms of subscription for the ensuing year will be One Dollar entrance, and One Dollar at the expiration of the time, exclusive of a postage of two thirds of a Dollar, per annum...
