Tu nesumin?, us be does with the oro
i "Cd
sent issue, the editorial management of
tho "OuANaEBUiio News," the undcr
aigncd, beforo lapsing into the moro
dignified and distant style whioh is here
after to govern his couvcrse with its
readers, avails himself of n pleasant cos
!)4i) '?.Iii I . ... i.'- I,
torn, to cbat with tucui for a few mo
nicuts, in friendly aud easy fashion,
; concerning his editorial intentions and
the views which lio is hereafter pub
licly to advocate.
' In tho first p'acc, it is bis intention
i)*~s '.-"."tt inly I ; ?" ' ? -
to male the ''News" a thoroughly live
newspaper iu every respect,?savo the
obituury notices. It will, be origiual,
liberal, earnest and charitable. It will
demand and exercise the right to ex
press its views fervently and emphati
cally, yet with due regard to the claims
of courtesy and the laws of the land?
yielding and admitting to o there the
same right, willingly, and as of equal
right.
It will contain occisiouul well-con
sidered and timely articles upon impor
tant questions arising under the Home
stead aud Exemption laws, in regard to
Licus ou Crops, Planting Leases and the
best mode of cuforcing them, aud other
legal subjects of vital interest to every
citizen of our County aud State.
Recognizing that the farmers arc the
very foundation of'our country's pros
' pcrity?iu fact, that without them we
could uqt lire at all, the "Nzws" will
always have something to say concern
their particular avocation aud intcrcots;
copied generally- from some leading Ag
ricultural jouru.il (for as to his per
sonal knowledge of such mutters the
? . i i. i.i .i ?? ?
editor frankly admits that he cannot
tell u bushel of rye from a pock of win
ter wheat?except by tho sizo of the
measures.) Aud as farmers, now-a-days,
, cannot generally ufTord to take more
thau one news-paper (which ought, for
the very name's sake at least, to con
tain sonic news?) and that one must,
horcabouts, bo tho "Ouangebuuo
News," tho most important news of eaoh
?week will be condensed for its columns,
down to the latest poaaible date before
publication.
Recognizing further that tho ladies,
both old (bless them !) and youog (God
bless them.' !) are alfeo an important
part of the community, whose good will
it is most desirable to obtain and* to
secure, the "News" will from time to
timo contain such delightful items auent
the Fashions, "Tho latest thing out"
(which it is sincerely hoped will never 1
bo one of their husbands) and other
charming and delectable tritllea, 08 will
cause it to bo a welcome . isitor to every
household in the County where "womans
will has wouiaus winning way."
Then as to politics. Well. wl'cn the
colored man insist* that ho was a great
deal happier and better off as a slave
than as a free man ; when people give up
travelling ou raiiio-?J* " -'??*"
boats, and prefer to go from Charleston
to New York iu a feailiug vessel, or from
Orangcburg to Charleston on mule
back; when business men, iu a great
hurry, think the Atlantic cable too fast,
aud prefer to send important dispatches
to Europe in three weeks by the old
way rather than iu three seconds by the
new way; then tho "Ouanoeburo
News" n\ay turn out to be a souud
idd Democratic newspaper. Uutil then,
however, it will be staunchly, hoarlily,
boldly Rcpublicau !
UutU then, or until the M'iilcnium,??
but in the-Millenium we shall all Lvi Re
publicans. Savo one, aud he-"bball

cratic Laecharge.
1'rcractly ; but it U a proof that how
crer much Republicpoisni resembles
small pox, the people consider it more
''healthy and desirable" thau Democra
cy. It's tery certain that Dcmooracy
doesn't "spread" much at present. O
?i ? ?
Some months ago, in rcicrriug to this
pubject, vre said that if a butter man for
the Prcsideucy thau Gen. Giant could
be found, be ought to te biought out.
and that he would doubt'ess be elected.
This opinion is most probably shaved by
Gen. Grant himself?he did not seek,
his present office in tho first place, and
it is not at all likely that he will make
any great effort to hold it. But down
to the present moment, wo have not
heard of a moro promising candidate.
Many men hare been ''named," but
they arc not the men who arc likely to
be pr.cforr.ed to Gon. Graut. Mr. Oree
Icy's "claims" are not generally regar
ded with much favor; ho is a great jour
ualh-t, but a o iscrably poor politician!
In tho President's office ho would be
likely to make as much havoc as the tra
ditional bull in the <'h in a shop. Mr.
Greeley is the most promiueut outside
candidate yet named on the Republican
side ? for that great and injured
man, Curl Schurz, is uuluokily ineligi
ble, owing to a defect in the Constitution
which' tho World kindly proposes to
rectify. It seems to be generally as
sumed that tho time has not ar
rived when the couutry can with
safety be turned over to the Democrats.
They had tbe greatest city in the Uuiou
to manage, and the mode in which they
exhibited their plau of government is
two well known to need much descrip
tion. People are not prepared to see
the Democratic system of Government
in New' York extended to the whole
country, aiid a line of "Bosses" installed'
iu the White Housr. There oan be no
doubt that the Douiocrats arc at this mo
ment largely assisted by the dissensions
of Republicans. Tho articles against tho
Administration in Democratic paper?
arc Very watery things compared with
the articles iu the Tribune, Springfield
Itrjutblican, and some other papers.
Hut Republicans will, perhaps, grow
tired in time of manufacturing ammuni
tion for Democratic guns; aud if they do
not, it s'giitfiea vctyr little, bacausc^waJ
have always the people to fall back
upon. Much importance may be at
tached by BOtno to the fact thnt so old a
Republican as Mr. Grcoley should deidec
against the rcnotniuatiou of the strong
est leader the Republicans have?but it
is a consolation to reflect that Mr. Grco
ley, though a man of -.real experience,
is not infallible. Mr. Grcoley opposed
the renomination of Mr. Liucolu?but
somehow it befell that Mr. Lincoln was
re-elected. History has a kuack of re
peating itself, and if Mr. Greeley's pre
dictions- should : urn uut to be no nearer
the mark now than they were iu 1861,
no one but himself would be greatly as
tonished.?X. K, Times.
The apportionment bill recently posscd
by Congress, which is now before the
President lor his signature is virtually
the same that was first passed iu the
House before tho holidays. It provides
Ibr 283 members to the next House of
Representatives, an iucreasc of lorty
over the present House, and fixes the
ratio of representation at about one hun
dred aud thirty-seven thousand. This
will give five Representatives to this
Stuto, instead of four a* ut present,, and
will nccosBitatc the re-districting of ther
State befcre the adjourntucut of the pre
sent Legislature.
Several bills have already been intro
duced, looking to this end. but nono of
than seem to possess suffieicut merit to
command the ultentioti of cither House.
Unless tue State is rc-uistncied bet?re
the adjournment of the Legislature, it
will be necessary to elect a Congress
man at large, as is now doue iu Illinois
This position is an unpleasant one, as
the person filling it, really represents no
one iu particular, or any spocial locality.
He has only a negative voice iu reooni
mendatiou for office, and is constantly
interfering with some other member, iu
whatever he may attempt to do for his
State.
Thero is ample time for this work to
be done before the 10th of February, at
which time wc hope the Legislature in
tends to adjourn.
This new appointment will give this
State two additional members iu the
National Convention to nominate Presi
dent aud Vice-President, making tho
number fourteen instead of twelve.? Co

rious fact has oomc to light here con
cerning Mr. Jcfietson Davis. Evidence
has been .found to bo in existence that,
instead of being born iu Kentucky, a*^
has always been supposed, aud as he has
always asserted, he was really born in
Massachusetts, and, therefore, instead of
being a pure-blooded son of Southern
chivalry, bo is only a Massachusetts
Yankee. La n man's "Dictionary of
Congress" puts Davis down indefinitely
as having been born in Christian county,
Kentucky, in 1808. Persons who claim
to be well informed say that "Jeff." wee
born iu old Stockbridge, Massachusetts
In 1808,, and removed to Kentucky with
his father when a small ehild His
father i- said to have been n wheel
