THE YORKVILLE ENQUIRER FOR 1861. THE Proprietor, LEWIS M. GRIST, having disposed of a half-interest in the ENQUIRER to WM. W. EAST, the new firm of GRIST &. EAST hereby offer tlieir "stock in trade," for a reasonable portion of the public patronage.? They had intended to add many new attractions to their journal, such as would commend it to every home circle in the State, and to this end were making outlays amounting in the aggregate to nearly ONE THOUSAND DOLLARS; but the solemn crisis through which as a people we are passing, the agitated state of the public mind, the vast amount of NEWS and popular reading afloat In the Press of the times, and the depeudence of many upon us for the transmission of this matter to them, demand of us an unusual devotion to the pcctliar WANTS OF THESE PATRONS. They would say, however^ to the people of the State, that they are "standing bidders" for a place at their hearthstones; and as soon as the quietude of the times will at all permit it, they intend to revert til their "first love"?the establishment of a FAMILY AND SOCIAL JOURNAL that will vie in interest with the most Interesting. The Proprietors have procured FOUR OR FIVE ORIGINAL STORIES, which will equal, and some of them surpass, the Romances heretofore published in their columns.? One of them is by Mrs. EWART, of Columbia, the wellknown and highly-admired author of "Ellen Campbell; or, King's Mountain," which adorned our pages lust summer.? It is a Domestic Story, entitled the "THE WEALTH OF HOME;" and judging from the opening chapters, will be more deeply Interesting, if i>ossible, Ulan "Ellen Campbell." Another of these Stories is "THE SHADOW ON THE WALL"? a tale of Colonial Virginia?by JOHN E8TEN COOKE. whose genius is deepening and ripening every year, and who has a!read*' contributed some ot'tlie most happily conceived mid graceiully executed romances to the literature of the South. Tile other Stories on hand are interesting and wellwritten. The publication of these Romances will be begun as soon as the present excitement abates, and the "days of peace," return.
