The dissolution of the partnership between Levi Alden and Charles Holt was published in the Gazette.

The evidence

• “Charles Holt, with whom he shared the proprietorship of the paper, as also the management of its publishing and editorial departments, through the fifth, sixth, seventh and part of the eighth volumes, participating in the triumphs and mourning the defeats of the Whig party, the principles of which he continuously and ceaselessly advocated. In the issue of December 4, 1852, the dissolution of the partnership theretofore existing between Levi Alden and Charles Holt was published, with the further announcement that the business would be conducted in the future by the last-named gentleman. " The change in the business arrangement of the Gazette would involve no change in its political or general character," he said.”
