* Salutatory
lu assuming tho duties of Editor of this
hitherto popular journal, we aro aware of the
^difficulties and responsibilities, we will have
to onoouutor. An Editor is expected te ca

variety of readers of diverso habits, disp
tions and avocations, somo of whioh aro,
torcstod only in speculations of wit oud
mor, while others value ohiefly lessons of mor
ilty and sound sense. The diffusion of
jal information in politics, tho projnofi
Y??gion. tho encouragement of oatttf
""ilio development of tho agricultural
of tho oountry, constitute the groat
purposes of tho press, as they aro
;pal sources of wealth and prosperlt
publiem government. 'To secure

with -time and experience to send forth a week?
?y sheet, which shall command tho hearty
woloome of our subscribers?Iu our efforts to
advocate the great sources of wealth and good
government, we trust, wo shall receive from
our brethren of tho quill that courtesy and
civility, which has over characterized the fra.
tcrnity and which we uow willingly extend to
all. *v
POLITICS,
i"in its primary sense denotes tho science of
government but by common usage is now un
derstood to express the ** contents of parties
for power?I? the latter sense wo espouse the
democratic party and shall devote all our ef
forts to the calm ond unimpassioncd vindica
tiorf of tho great principles of republican govern.
Unent, of whicli that party is the embodiuiont.
^ Freedom of religion ; freedom of tbc press ;
freedom of tho person undor tho protection of
itho habeas corpus; the support* the State
-governments in nil their rights ; a jealous care
of tho right of election by tho people ; und
economy in tho public expense ;" constitute
tlie bright galaxy of d?mocratie principles,
whioh nerved nod sustained our ancestors
through a bloody revolution, and guided their
steps to freedom nnd success. These princi
ples, though oripplod and dofaocd by the usur
pations of tho general government, still live
iu tho hearts of the enlightened nnd virtuous
citizens of the country. To cherish and re
store them to thoir pristino vigor and bright
ness ; to assuage tho bitterness of party
excitement by tho influence of reason and
^persuasion, and thereby restore the govern
fincnt" to pence, safety and prosperity in the
Toctjoris of the governed, is our prcs< nt /rent
duty. This, we bilievc, can only be o Toc ted
permanently by modonuiou nnd forbearance,
while roaeon is employed to work conviction
?surely never by violence or threats?
RELIGION,
. a tho root and pith of virtue, which has cv
?or been regarded an indupensiblo support of
political prosperity in a republican govern
ment. Without it virtue is sickly plant,
whioh soon droops and dies and leaves every
security for life, property and reputation un
guarded. Whatever therefore promotes tho
advancement of religion, increases national
virtue and thereby strengthens the pillars of
good government

A Swindle.
About the first of December last, a man
by the namo of Expedience Mob, bailiog
from Now Jowsoy, arrived in this placo, and
set about purchasing Iambi, offering in pay
tborofor, bonds of a Company entitled the
Brooklyn Steamship and Emigration Compa
ny, and succeeded in making acvorul trades
with our unsuspecting oltizons. Suspicion
having bocu aroused ns to tho value of said
bonds, enquiry was mudo ut once in New
York and othor cities, wh?u it was ascertained
that no such bonds wore known in market.
Tho following paragraph, clipped from a
Northern paper, has been handed us for pub
lication, and doubtjess relates to the same
individual who has been in our midst with
bogus bonds and brass watches :
On tho 4th inst. two promissory notes, for
85,G00 each, indorsed, and mado payable to
tho order of Messrs. Bowcn, Whitoman &
Winslow, wero stolon from the ollico of the
above named firm. Suspicion rested on James
Ripley und J. \V. Tol mage, and Inspector
Dilks telegraphod throughout tho country to

Complete tub Amnesty.?Thoro seems
to bo a generally expressed wish among the
more moderate of the leading journals of the
country'that tho Presid ent should complete
his work of amnesty by releasing all political
prisoners now hold in confinement, inclu
ding thosoat the Dry Tortugas. The Wash
ingtori Express says : Wo hoartily concur
in the hope that tjio President will equalize tho
closing days of his rule with such a graceful
act of Esecutivo ole money. The " Now

The President having issued his proclama
tion extending full ptrdontoull porsons,
without any exception whatsoever, for the. of
enea of treason against tho United States, or

in tho place, jumped up and commenced
"oirculating the bat" in such a way ns to fin
ish tho job at the door and pass out with the
proceeds. Tho preacher, eyeing him as he
wont out, observed: "If that young man
runs away with that money, lro'11 be damned."
A deaeoo sitting by the window, seeing him

whilo the people of Virginia do not belici o
that negroes in their uneducated condition
ureas yet fit for suffrage, yet in view of the ex
pression of publie opinion in the recent na

harmony and union, they lire willing to accept
universal amnesty. A Committee of Nine,
has been appointed to visit Washington, to
urge Congress to legist ito s? as to secure this
to the peuple of the State.
Neuro Suffhaok.?-Missouri refused, by
nearly 20,000 majority, to admit to tho oxor
ciso of tho franchis? and full privileges of

fused by nearly 40,000 to grant suoli a*f.ivor
to 1,220 negro js. Iowa enfranchised 231 ne
groes, und Minnesota her seventy-five. In
Missouri, t'.ic 82,000 radical.* deny ship, while
the samo men clamor for the enfranchisement
of the iiogro in the Southern States, refusing
to gri>nt it to their own. Neither in Michi
gan nor Missouri could this have been dono
but for tho opposition of tho radioals. A
writor in the " Richmond Dispatch, who is
said tobe "one of tho most distinguished
statesmen in the Valley of Virginia," after
setting forth " the difficulties of our situation ;
of tho impossibility of avoiding negro suff
rage, and of tho possibility of escaping other
and worse evils," advises tho people of Vir
ginia to agree upon the plutfonu of " utiiver
sal amnesty and universal suffrage;" and,
framing a constitution upon this basis, to ask
at tho hands of Congress its substitution for
tho "obnoxious instrument" proposed by tho

I are expected to make on that dny. It is sug
I gested that General Grant, by his absenco

? of this embarra.jment.
There is another oustom observed between
j outgoing and incoming Presidents that, if <?b
served on the fourth of March will renew the
kind ofonibnrrassmcut referred to. Usually,
; on that day, tho outgoing President notifies
his successor of hie readiness to uccompa
j ny tho latter to the Capital, und does scat
j him in the Executive carriage und drivo with
him to the place assigned for tho Inauguration*
ceremonies to take place.
If General Grant decliucs to come in eon
tact w.th President Johnson on New Year's
dny, "because of tho unpleasant feeling exist
ing between them, the same oauic will in all
probability induco him to wish to avoid a inert*

Probably the embarrassment muy be overcome
consistently with General Grant's practico of
avoiding prcp.ivd ovulions nod ceremonies.
Ho may decline tho inauguration ceremony,
