J. E. Snodgrass will have to sell the Visiter, the last anti-slavery paper south of the Mason-Dixon Line, if it does not pay better. Besides his time, J. E. Snodgrass has sunk $2,500 into the paper. Snodgrass inquires "whether something could not be done to insure permanency to the Visiter." He suggests possible methods. If it should be necessary to dispose of the Visiter, perhaps Maria Weston Chapman's committee could take it in hand. Snodgrass has sent an article to be printed in the Liberty Bell. ["The Childless Mother," by J. E. Snodgrass, appeared in the Liberty Bell for 1847, p. 24-51.]
