TUB JEFFEKHONIaN. .' We give below the salutatory of Charlotte's first newspaper. It is strikingly in line with Democratic contentions of today, while it indi cates the environments of 57 years ago. i The paper was contributed to the Charlotte lib-ary by Mrs. W H Harris: . The present is the first effort that has beta made to establish an organ at the birthplace of American lode' pendence, through which the doc trines of the Democratic party ooold be freely promulgated and defended in which the greit principles of liberty and tqualitv, lor which the Alexanders, the Polks and their be roio compatriots periled their all on the 20th of May, 1775, could at all times find an unshrinking advocate, Its success rests chiefly with the Re publican party of Mecklenburg, and to tbem and the Republicans of the surrounding country the appeal is now made for support. The Jeffer. aonian will assume as its political creed those landmarks of the Repub lican party, the doctrines set forth In the Kentucky and Virginia Reso. lntioas of 1798, believing, as the un dersigned does, that the author of these papers, who bore a conspicuous part in framing our system of gov ernmenr, were. best qualified to hand dowu to posterity a correct expoai tion of its true spirit th best judges of what powers were dele gated by, and what reserved to, the States. It will oppose, as dangerous to our free institutions, the spirit of mo nopoly, which has been stealthily but steadily increasing in ths coon try from the foundation of our gov ernment. The most odious feature in this system is that it robs the many, uoperoeptibly for a few wealthy individuals with power not only to control the wages of laboring men, but, also, at their p leu a re to inflate or depress the commerce and busi ness of the whole country exciting spirit of extravagance, which it terminated in pecuniary ruin, and too often the moral degradation of its viotims. . This system must be thoroughly reformed before we can hope to tee settled prosperity smile alike upon all our citizens. To aid in producing this reform will be one of the main objects tf the Jtff.rso nian. It will war against exclusive privileges, or partial legislation, nnder whatever guise granted by our Legislatures; and, therefore, will op pose the chartering of' a United States Bank, internal improvements by the Federal government, a revival of the tariff system, and ths new Federal scheme of the general gov. eminent assuming to pay to foreign money changers the two hundred millions of dollars borrowed by a few States for local purposes. As a question of vital importance to the Sonth, and one which, from various causes, isevery day assuming a more momentous and awful aspect, ths Jetfersmian will not fail to keep it i reader regularly and accurately advised of the movements of North ern abolitionists. It mait be 'evi dent to aU candid observers that a portion of the party press of the Sooth have hitherto been too silent on this subject. We shall, there. tore, without the fear of being de nounoed as an alarmist, lend our bumble aid to asiist in awakening the people of the South to due vfgi lance and a sense 'of their real dan ger. While a portion of the columns of the Jefferson lao will be staoted to political discussion, tbe great inter ests of morale, literature, arrical lure and mechanic arts sball not be neglected. With the choioeet set lections on these subjects, and a doe (juantity of light reading, the editor hopes to lender his sheets agreeable and profitable to all classes in so ciety. Orders f jr the p ipr, poi'age paid, addressed to the "Editor of the Jef fertonian, Obarlotte, N. C," will be promptly complied with, Poetmaa. ters are requested to act as our gents for the paper, in receiving nd forwarding the names of sub scribers and th ir subscriptions. The terms of the paper will be found above. Joe. W. IlAHPTOI. I'JiarJotte, March 6, 141. ., A WOltD TOOI SI PATSIORA. ! We deem it not inadvisable and somewhat due to ourselves to address few words to those who pursue our daily columns. ' We have yet to hear of a well in formed business man say that our town needs or will support comfort ably more than one daily paper. It would be presumptions of us ta claim tbat The Standard is ail that might be deiired, but if there are any demaads for more than it is our ambition to make it we do not know it and we hardly think a su perior has been presented yet. We appreciate most keenly the assurance of good will and favor that often greet us and we would be less than human if our arduous labors were not somewhat lightened by the words of commendation and moral support tendered to us. For the nearly two years lhac we have endeavored to fill, to the fullest extr possible, a life of usefulness io oar prtsent capacity, we congratn la'e ourselves that we have made so few enemies ana we believe very many friends. We cannot see that we merit the opposition to which we have been exposed for some time. By reference to our' vxpenae ac count we nod that we w. re paying our reporter more wages than our entire family ..expenses,' including cost of , living, clothing, spending money and all, though the services of two were devoted to the work. Nor do we remember to have ever declined a favor asled. Yet we got the opposition. " V.'e got the disfavor and the op position from a very few whose friendship we were unable to rs'ain while maintaining our sense ef duty and personal privilege. We lost some pttronage, that we felt keenly, from real friends who in the plentitude of their geoerosi v rather than a close scrutiny and searching out of the cause they knew not, they thought it right to divide patronage wh.n if this feeling were shared by most citizens of our town it would lead to financial ruin of one or the other or a discouraging half support that wonld lead to de generate, instead of high tonea' journalism, ths thins least to be de sired in our town io tnis latter class we tnink we can appeal fir a return to our list. i or all other classes referred to we have no spirit of hatred, and shall place no carriers in the way of tbe friendship that we feel conscious should never have been withdrawn from os, but we cannot now merit their disdain by servile attitude. Our ideas of tbe responsibility of conducting a newspaper as well as of the opportunity to bui d up or tear dowo the morals of a communi ty are such as to make us ready to yield the field, though against our prcf irences and our financial inter. t-Jt, to make room for a higher degree of tfficieocj in tbe noble sphere, while we will suffer much loss In thr struggle to prevent a retrograde. Tbe'e are two conditions under which 'I UK STtVDABD does not give editorial opinion, vis : when conclusions cannot be intelligently drawn for lack of knowledge or evi dence from all stand points, and when sn txpression of opinion wonld da no and might do barm.

Some one baa said tbat patriotism consists of love for jour own country and not of hatred of some one site's. True as can be J FUSION WOULD BE A FATAL MISTAKE. Bat Oaa laaue rtboold Be Injected lata Ibe rihl. It it our careful, deliberate and conscientious opinion tbat but one issue should be irj-c'ed into the fiiht this year and tbat is tbe rescue of tbe State from tbe bands of tboee who would despoil her of her good name, ber fair heritage ard ber glo rious record ia tbe eisierhood of States. TbiiikiLg such things we say them. If others tbiuk diner ently, a; aany do, ve are willing to discuss tbe matter with tbm io a epir't of fairness, calmness and moderation. But we are not willing to take abuse at their hand?. We are not willing to have thunder bolts of denunciation burled at our bead because, forsooth, we do not happen to agree in all thing? with some reformed renegade who finds it more profitable to return to tbe party he once abandoned and de ceived than it is to remain with whom he once alighned himself. ...These may be plain words, but they are expressive of plain facts. We are opposed to fusion with any thing and on any issue in wbicb tbe 8tate is concerned. We think it unwise, unnecessary, harmful a&d destructive of our own interests. As we have said on a previous occa sion, tbe money question ia settled so far as North Carolina Is concerned aod we don't want to fritter away any more of onr strength io tbat direction. It ia not likely tbat any man can obtain a nomioation to Congress by any Democratic con vention iq North Carolina who is not an avowed friend of eilver. It it not cnly. "not likely," but it may be taken as an assured fact. Hence, it ebould be considered that free silver is eliminated from this cam paign. It cannot gain any votes for ns and it may lose ot many. We don't want any white m ital, or yel low metal, or blue metal or black metal in this campaign. But we want mettlesome mental men who will go into the campaign with their sleeves rolled op, and make an aggressive fight, never ceasing until the set of inn 00 the day tbat sball deeide all. ' As to fusion that is the worst fol ty of all, and we don't care what the chairman and committe of the State or the national chairman and committee may bave to say on the subject It is undemocratic, on sound, unsafe aod untenable. There liet do power io any committee, or in any convention, to force upon the voters ol its party a nominee who is not of that party. Should the State committee of the State convention again adopt a policy of fusion with our opponents on any question of State policy, then we tell tbem plainly that there are thonsands opon thousands of Democrats in North Carolina, good men, trua men, solid men, men wbo have never yet voted or worked or acted outside of tbe party lines wbo will oever bow to tbe mandate; w ho will vote for the candidates of their par ty and no others: who will not be made tools and cats' pawt of, and wbo will not yield one jot or tittle in this respect.

North Carolina Christian Advocate CHAIN GANG SUPERINTEN DENT Decided I'pnn Afu-r Quite an Amount ar Deliberation. Nothing of special importance was transacted by the tJouuty Commissioners with the exception of the chain gang superin tendency except that Chairman W II Dlnme was authorized to draw an Order upon the connty Treasurer for the amount necessary to pay for the transportation ot convicts and guards from Ealeigh to Concord. It is hoped that they will get the convicts in a short while. There were ten applications for Superintendent of the chain gang handed to the Commissioners and two applications for the position ot guards. Those who applied for a position as gnards were Messrs. Joseph P Diggers and Deck Dor- tOD. The following is the list of the applicants for the Snperinten- dency : Jno. R Cruse, C P Cline, A C Earnhardt, J M Cdley, W Frank Cox, It II Patterson, Jn5. L McAnulty, Geo. E Fisher and a Mr. Mills tiom Mecktenourg county. The prices per day were differ ent, one mail offering to work for 85 cents per day tantil he learned the work. After studying over tbe matter for quit a while, and also taking into consideration tbe fact that he had had some experi ence with the work, the position was granted to Mr. Robert 11 Pat terson, of No. 5 township. IIis price per day is one dollar with tbe probability of bis wages being raised if his service proves satis factory. It is hoped that the sequel will prove the wisdom of the decision.

Much Las been said relative to the above place, and many con clusions formed which are incor rect, aud all probably, because many have been misiutbrmed, and opinions based upon reports and not on facts. . What Kimer town was before the flood, or even before the Revolutionary war, I would not pretend to say, but I know its modern history is not near as bad as 8ome think. How the report ever got circulated that this town is a hard place I caniiot say ; but it seems to have beeu .customary for other places to try to palm ofl some of thoir bad conduct on Rimertown ; and it any unpleas ant thing would occur within a radius of three wiles of this place Rimer would have the blame to bear. The writer bas known visi tors from oth6r places to behave very unbecomingly around onr church here, who seemed to think we were able to bear the disrepute but we don't propose to tolerate any thing of the kind either around tbe church or in the town ; and we would advise all parties to teach their young people to' be have when they are away from home. But it is a great pleasure to say tbat this bad conduct around tbe church was in the past and as we, as a congregation and town, know we can demean our selves as well as any other place. we do not propose to be censured for every evil that is perpetrated in east Cabarrus. The intent therefore, of this article, is to cor rect the error abroad, and to in form everybody concerned that the statement that "Kimei town is a hard place," ia iucorrect. Th writer bas been laboring with aDd for these people for more than seven months, and he finds the citizens of this place and vicinity to be up with those of other places in kindness, hospitality, morality, church work, etc. Rimertown is a beautiful place, and is of an enterprising character and business capacity. We bave a postoffice, two stores, a black smith shop, cotton gin saw mill and so on. The 'phone is spoken of and will probably cone to Rimer soon. Wo also haye a free school and neat frame Luth eran church, the outlook of which is yery encouraging. The induce ments for good moral incomers are strong, and lots can now be had at reasonable prices.
