SECOND YEAR. Enlargement of Six OrfwnuuH We announce to our patron?, with feelings of pleasure and grati tude, the commencement of our second Volume. TTie success of the Devockat, is fixed bevond a doolit. and its unswerving devotion to principle and right, amply ac knowledged, by the largest sub scription list possessed by any pa- jkt in Eastern South Carolina. In the midst of a desperate politi cal contest, we promised to carry the standard of honesty, worth, intelligence and pure democracy, against corruption, fraud, ignor ance and radicalism. We have stood by our colors through defeat and disaster, and to-day the Demo- CKAT, like the white plume of Navarre, is arallying point, around which the friends of justice, and right can gather, and an organ, through which the voice of down trodden liberty can yet be heard; though she lies prone in the dust. We can promise our patrons of the coming year, our best talent, and energy. Our constant aim will be to excel our former efforts, and make the Democrat a welcome and anxiously looked for visitor, to every peaceful and honest home in the country. We will not spare work and expense to attain this end, and we feel that our efforts will l»e appreciated by those who have so generously given us their support thus for. We take pleasure in announcing the enlarge ment of ourpaper SixColums more; thus making it the largest Weekly paper in this section. Its circula tion already large, is rapidly in creasing, and its facilities for ad vertising are unsurpassed, having the largest circulation among the Planters, Mechanics, and business men of any paper in Eastern South Carolina. Our principles in the future may he judged by our past. Our terms of advertising will lie found literal and just; and we earnestly appeal to the opponents of mongrelism, radicalism, and corruption, to come forward and support a journal, which will always stand in the gap of constitutional, and moral right, and tear aloft the banner of “Justice to all.” Our Subscription price will be $2.50 per annum, invariably in advance, and no weekly paper worth reading can be furnished for less. .

The misfor tune to us is that tho cotton-growingintcrosft is spread over an immense area of temitory among millions who, from their peculiar pos- sition, cannot net in co-operation whilst the speculative rings that buy; are confined' to a coin par.itivly few manufacturers and capital ists, wlss have easy means of acting in con certed schemes, arc principally controlled by New York and! Liverpool, and, alas! too fre- qucntly make easy victims of the honest and laboring producei-s. He tibe cause of the apparently continuous decline, ous of these or tie other, or some thing else we know not of, the question we arc concerned in, is, ran ire do anything for our protection f In the first place we may by simply holding our cotton. Rut upon this poiiit we should be guarded. Cotton may- be held at an expense for some time, and than have to be sold at smaller figures than uow prevail. Hut should the decline couSinue, and cotton rececds to twenty cents, or less, is it not reasonable to suppose that it will again advance to twenty-five cents or more ? If then, we are able to hold under these circumstances; would it not be wise to do so ? Should money be needed, to main tain vigorous preparations for the coadog year, would it not be better to deposit and draw upon the cotton, rather than lot it go at a sacrifice ? These, are practical sugges tions, and this is a practical matter involving tiro interests our entire community. If they're not the best, we trust they may at least be productive of good in moving our readers to act with calmness, reflection and advantage in this, or a better way, so far as this subject may influence our prospective status for'70. The fact that corn, bacon, peas and pota toes arc all short, and that corn and meat will have to be bought, at high prices, sug gests that our planters should all be cautious to secure these essential means of conducting their approaching planting operations, before the proceeds of this year’s crop arc allowed to be diverted to any channel not vital to future independence, or absolutely indispen sable. The fifteen hundred dollar exemp tion clause, the misfortunes of ’(i7, and the loss of that species of property, which was the wealth of tho South, combined, have torn away the prop of credit,—a bad prop to kan or build on,—and now wo know wo g nothing to depend upon but Goo, energies and tangible resources bo Let the hope of future ift;- charge—all efforts to arrest the flames proved of no avail. There was consideraltle destruc tion of Rosin and Turpentine. Mr. McKe\'Zi/.s entire loss, by the fire is estimated at nearly §4.(1110 uninsured.

There is no subject, at present engaging the attention of our readers, of more immedi ate interest aud direct importance, than that relating to the result of their planting opera tions tor this year. A cursory glancecatches i.ie prominent fatesof a tolerably, laircotton. crop, with good but reeeeding prices for this sole monied resource ; very short crops of corn, peasand potatoes, with prospoctsof hi eh prices to be paid by ail of us for “the staff of ’ l-.’e and comparatively no meat, with an almost certainty that the last deficit must be supplied at severe cost.

Wc understand that our neighbors of Flor ence are having some excitement in regard to tho Township ordinance furbidding the bringing in of plantation produce during the dark hours.
