!t?*0-It
In assuming, as be does with'the pre
s>ri"t issue, the editorial nianagcnWut'of
tho ''ORAN-QEBcna News," the.under
?igned, before lapsing into tho more
dignified nad distant style which is here
after to govern his couverse' wuh its
readers, avails himself of a pleasant cus
torn, to chat with them lor a : few n>o
mcuts, in friendly and easy fashion,
concerning his editorial intentions and
the viowa which ho is hereafter pub
licly to advocate.
In tne-first p'acc, it is bis iutontion
to make the "News" a thoroughly fiver
newspaper iu every respect,?savo the
obituary notices. : It will be original,
liberal, earucst and charitable It will
demand and exercise the right to ( ex
*" press its views fervently and cmphati
- calby, yet with due regard to the claims
of courtesy and the laws of the land?
yielding and admitting to others the
eamc right, ' willingly, and as of equal
It will contain occasional woll-oon
bidcrcd uud timely articles upon impor
tant questions arising under the Home
? stead aud Exemption laws, in regard to
Licusoii.Crops, Planting Leases and the
best mode of enforcing them, and other
Jega^ subjects of vital interest to every
citizen tff our County and State.
Recognizing that the farmers arc the.
very foundation of our country's pros
? i
pcrity?iu fact, that without them we
could uot lire at all, the "Nxws" will
always Imve something to say couccrn
their particular avocation and interests y
copied generally from some leading Ag
viculturul jouru.il (for as to his per
sonal knowledge of such mutters the
editor fraukly udmits that ho cannot
toll a bushel of rye from a pcok of win
" ' tor wheat?except by the nizo of the
measures.) And as farmers, now-a-days,
. canuot generally afford to take more
than one uews-paper (which ought, for
the very name's sake at least, to con
tain some news?) and that one must,
hereabouts, bo tho "Oranqebuuo
News," the most important news of each
weok will be condensed for its columns,
down to the latest possible dato before
publication.
Recognizing further that tho ladies,
both old (bless them !) and young (God
bless them!!) arc nifco an important
part of the community, whose good-will
it is most desirable to obtain and* to
secure, tho "News" will from time to
time contain such delightful stems aucnt
tho Fashions, "Tho latest thing out"
(which it is sincerely hoped will never
bo ouc of their husbauds) and other
charming and delectable trifllcs, as will
cause it to bo a welcome visitor to every
household in the County where "womans
will has womans winning way."
Then as to politics. "Well, when the
colored man insists that ho was a great
deal happier and better off as a slave
than as a free mau; when people gi\ o up
t* .????Ii -?- -- ?? ^ ;u MkMihU.
boats, and prefer to go from Charleston
to New York iu a sailing vessel, or from
Orangeburg to Charleston on mule
back; when bujiucsa men, iu a great
hurry, think the Atlantic cable too fast,
aud prefer to scud important dispatches
to Europe in three weeks by the old
way rather than iu three seconds by the
new way; then tho "Oranoeburo
News" nwy turn out to be a sound
old Democratic newspaper. Uutil then,
however, it will be staunchly, hoarlily,
boldly Republican !
Until then, or until the M'rllcnium,?.
but iu the-Millenium we shall all bo Re
publicans. Savu one, oud he-"bball
be bouti'l for a thousand years !"

Prctactly ; but it ia a prbof that how
ever much Republicanism resembles
small pox, the people c osider it more
"healthy and desiriblo" than Democra
cy. It's Very certain that Democracy
doesn't "spread" much at present. O

Some months ago, iu rclcrriug to this
: subject, we safd that if a better man for
! the Frcsideucy tbau Gen. . Grant could
be found, be ought tu Ic .brought, out^
"and that be would doubt'ess be elected.
This opinion is most probably shaved by
Gen. Grant himself:?be did ( not seek,
his present office iu the first p^aoe,, and"
it is not at all likely, that lie will make
any great effort to hold it. But down
to the present moment, wo hav? not
beard of. a move promising candidate.
Many men have been "named/*" but
they are not tbc men who arc likely to
be preferred to Gen. Graut. Mr. Grce
Icy'a "claims" ore not geuerally regar
ded With much favor; ho is a great jour:
ualist, but a n-iscrably poor politician!
In the President's office ho wbuld be
likely to make as much havoc as the tra
ditional bull in tbc China shop. Blr.
Greeley is the most prominent outside
candidate yet named on the Republican
side ?for that great and injured
man, Carl Schurz, is uuluckily ineligi
ble,, owing to a defect in tbc Constitution
which tho World kindly proposes to
rectify. U seems to be generally ?i
sum'cd that tbo time baa not ar
rived when the country can with
safety be turned over to the Democrats.
They had the greatest city in the Union
to manage, and tbc mode in which they
exhibited1 their pluu of government is
tvo well known to need mault descrip
tion. People are not prepared to see
the Democratic system of Government
in New York extended to the whole
country, and a line of "Bosses" instilled'
iu the "flTh'tc Hou.v. .There can be no
doubt that the Democrats are at this mo
ment largely assisted by the dissensions
of Republicans. The articles against tbo
Administration in Democratic papers
arc vory wutory things compared whi
ttle articles iu the Tribune, Springfield
Ifrjuitlicon, and some other papers.
But Republicans will, perhaps, grow
tired in time of manufacturing ummuni?
tion fur Democratic guns; aud if thoy dv>
not,'it a;gnh1ca vcry^ little, becauyv'*$J.
have always the people to fall back
upon. Much importance may be at
tached by sorno to the fact that so old a
Republican aS Mr. Greeley should de idee
against the rcnomination of t he strong
est leader the Republicans have?but it
is a consolation to reflect that Mr. Gree
ley, though a man of .real experience,
is not iu fallible. Mr. Greeley, opposed
the rcnomination of Mr. Lincoln?but
somehow it befell that Mr. Lincoln was
re-elected. History has a kuack of re
peating itself, and if Mr. Grecley*? pre
cNu&iona should turn out to be no noarer
the mark now than they were iu 1861,
no one but himself would be greatly as
tonibhed.?..V. I", Times.
The apportionment hill recently passed
by Congress, which is now before the
President tor his signature is virtually
the same that was first passed in the
House before the holidays. It provide*
for 283 members to the next Houso of
Representatives, an increase 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 Kepreseutativcs to this
State, instead of four as at present,, and
will necessitate the re-districting of thw
State befcro the adjournment of tbc pre
sent Legislature. i
Several bills have already becu intro
duced, looking to this end. but none of
them seem to possess sufficicut merit to
nr.tr. ........I ?>-- -** ?, 11 U.1IW1
Unless the State is rc-districted before
the adjournment of the Legislature, it
will be necessary to elect a Congress
man at large, as is now done in Illinois
Tbis position is an unpleasant one, as
the person filling it, really represents no
one iu particular, or any special locality.
He has only a negative voice iu recom
mendation for office, and is constantly
interfering with somo other member, in
whatever he may attempt to do for hie
State,
There is ample time for this work to
be done before the 16th of February, at
which time wc hope the Legislature in
tends to adjourn
This new appointment will give this
Statt! two additional members in the
National Convention to nominate Presi
dent aud V icy-President, making tho
number fourteen iustcad of twelve.? C'o
