TTX2 GEEXirSSOEQ PATEIOT.
. In the latur part of the year 1825,
er very early in 1820, Dr. L. G.
Watson and av Mr. Potter set up a
printing press in Greensboro and
comntaaeed the publication of
ft
newspaper .entitled the Pateiot.
The press was what was known
among printers aa ft "Bamage," and
said , to be the one on which the
Raleigh 'lfiarrra' , was printed
near the Beginning of ; the century.
It eontlnued In use in jtbe Patriot.
oflc until the year 1814. The
paper was small, not more than
"demj sits In the printer's momrn
dature of that day, poorly printed,
and not more than four -or five
numbers issued by tba founders.
On April 24th, 182G, the estab
lishment was purchased by T.Early
Strange, then late of Bedford coun
ty, Ya,, who enlarged the paper to
urojaP siia,aod continued the pub
lication under. title of Tux Fateiot
and Greentboro Palladium. Mr.
8 trail re was a man of sound aenae
and JadgBeat, aad printed a very
beat paper for those days; but, like
cost newspapers cf the times, it
was chiefly made up of selections,
with but little editorial matter.
Ia the Spring of 1823 Mr. Strange
sole) out to William Swaim,a native
of Guilford, n bo enlarged the pa
per to "super-royal aire, and con
tinned the Issue with. the title of
GEEJEtSEOEO' Pateiot, under
which name It has been kept, with
ft abort intermission' or two, until
the present time. Mr. Swaim's op
portunities ci literary accomplish
ment had seen ..limited; Dot din
talait .in his (Chosea .vocation was
original and conspicuous. He wrote
largely for, his paper. His editori
als. Cashing with wit and humor.
or burning with sarcasm, were read
with avidity by the public, Qd had
no small infiueooe, within the range
ef their cirsalation, in developing
and strengthening the views and
doctrines of , the then rising. Whig
organisation. - Mr. Swaim died-the
lastday of the year 1S25, the paper
beiag eoniinoed for ft few mentha
by his administrator, A. E. Hanner.
Within the succeeding three
years several changes took place in
the management. It first passed
into tha bands of A . Hanner
and 0. IT. B. . Evana, (the . veteran
and venerable Father Evana of the
UUlon CkronieU.) .Mr. Hanner
died In the summer of 1837, when
E. S. Zevely- became associated
with .Mr. Evans, tha - former
having a short time previously
commenced the Seuilem TtUtcopt,
which consolidated with the Pateiot-under
the title of the Tele-
cope.-' After the lapee of a few
months Mr. Zevely'a, interest was!
I purchased by John D. Clancy, of
Hillsboro, a teachsr and gentleman
of fine literary aqulrements. when
the paper resumed the same of the
Gbxesseobo Pateiot. t,
Early in 1839 the .establishment
was part?. used by. Lyndoa. owalm
continued; the publication of
s ..-i fe
Pateiot until 185t fifteen
stcative years. In ISI the paper
was enlarged to 'MapenaP size, and
printed cn anew Washington press,
then considered the beat hand press
in nse. .In , the allotment of ro
apectire (abors, it was agreed that
the chief editorial duty should de
volve on, the senior partner, and
the Junior take charge of the me
ehaoieal department. ; - But Mr.
Sherwood's singularly accurate
recoIIectioiIbf facts, dates and de
tails of correct ere fits, particularly
in the political affairs of the day,
famiaht'd, valuable data for the
auccessfal conduct of the paper. It
was'the aim of the Pateiot, ander
this management, to keep within
the just and courteous bounds ' of
journalistic debate, and to avoid
too frequent resort of the argumen-
tum ad Acmiam, so liable to destroy
the dignity and permanent useful-
nets of a public journal.
In 1831 Mr. Sherwood
and continued sole control
papsr' until January, 1S37: when
the Yadkin' Flag, published at Lex
ington, by James A. Long, was con
solidated with the Pateiot, under
title of The Pateiot and Flag,
published by Sherwood & Long.
The paper retained the above name
until July, 1859j when the first
power press set up in Greensboro
was introduced into the office ; the
paper was enlarged to the full ca
pacity of the' press, and at that
time was among the largest week
lies in the South. The, name was
then changed back, as Mr. Long
nlmseir wrote, making ttae an
noancement, to the "old time-honored
title of the "Geeessboeo Pa-
TXI9T." i -J
This firm continued until July,
1861, when Mr. Long sold his inter
est to Mr. Sherwood and retired
from the bnsinesi. Mr. Long was
an elegant writer; witty and pun
gent: perhaps rather two diffusive
for editorial work a habit unavoid
ably acquired by, pleading before
Marie.
Mr. 8berwooJ kept control of the
office until the 1st of May, 1SG3.
when he told to A. W. Ingold and
J. O. Clendenin. Tbi pattnrhip
was disaolvrd Ibo followiug Jhuua
ry, and the paper wascomiuutd by
Mr, I o gold alcue, who, witb a short
intermission in the spring ot 1SG5,
published It until the lot of Sep
tember, 1SG7. Mr. Ingold'a admin
istration, comprising the closing
scenes of the war was aurronmlfd
with greater difficulties Than that of
any of hi predecessors; butbe
raanffd it witb admlrtbTc Inct acd
success. He has been for the past
ten or eleven years in the YorJcritle
Enquirer office, where, and every
where, bis friends wisu dim beaua,
happinesa and cash in abundauco.
In September, 1SC7, the property
passed into the hands of D. F. Cald
well, who took editorial control nn
til the summer of 1SCS. ThenJ. W,
Albright & Bro. until Jannary,lS70.
TbeuK. H Albright alone to the
end of the year. ;
Mr. Caldwell's editorials abound
ed in patriotic sentiment and inde
pendent thonght, but were too dif
fusive. With 'the fire and vehe
mence of tho genuine opalar orator,
the newspaper field was two nar
row for one whoso peculiar province
is on the hnstiogs.
James W. Albright, with hia years
of. newspaper education, made a
capital paragraphias Nothing like
printing office training to make
fellow stick to bis text.
In 1871 P. F. Duffy went into the
office as Editor in chief, eontinning
in that position until November,
1879; in connexion part of the time
with each of the Albrights, for a
short space with Eogene ilorehead,
and for the last four years of the
time as sole Editor. The changes
in proprietorship for several years
past the writer! has not been accu
rately informed of, nor is it impor
tant to the public.
Mr. Duffy was a terse and polish
ed writer; firm in his positions;
thoroughly independent ; scrupu
lous in his care; for the integrity ot
his paper, and ever mindful ol
others in maintaining tho amenities
ot bis profession.
In November, 1879, Capt. E. T.
Fulghum took charge of both the
editorial and business management.
In May, 1850, be started the Daily.
His woik is dally placed before the
public bright, newny, agreeable
illustrating what a netctpaper ought
to be. The weekly Pateiot, made
up from the daily, is one of the
largest and best weeklies in the
State.-, t - ' - "".
The Pateiot was ever constaut
in its afilliatiou with the Whig party
up to the time of the war, aud firm
in its attitude of opposition to the
line of policy which resulted in the
attempt at secession. Siuee the
war atdthe development of tho re
construction policy it has taken
side with tbo Democratic party. In
Its general tone it has been con
servative of public ordtr and ele
vated mcral sentiment.
The Pateiot Is now the rise of
fifty-five years old. Its age seems
to Justify this rather lengthy sketch.
THE SOETn STATE.
A newspaper called The Repub
lican printed in Greensboro part of
the year 187W2, was purcbssed by
U.8. Wicsted and T.B.Keogb, who
dropped that title and commenced
the publication-of The Aetc North
State. In 1877 Mr. Keogh purchas
ed the entire interest. The New"
was left out ot the title and it has
since stood as The North State.
This paper may be. called the
organ of thesEepublican party in
North . Carolina, as it is doubtless
the most able aud influential Be-

courtesy, and in its ability is an
acquisition to the journalism of the

THE BEACON. ;
In the fall of 1879 the publication
of The Beacon was commenced in
Greensboro by. James W. Albright.
Shortly afterwards John ' B. Wins
ton, of Milton, became associated
as political Editor, and the paper
assumed the advocacy of the Green
back policy in financial affairs.
Mr. Winston is now proprietor as
wll as Editor, his office being at
his home in Milton, though the
paper will continue to be published
in Greensboro. I
The Beacon is evidently an honest
advecate of the peculiar pal icy of
its party ; is eondncted witb fair
ability, and in ft style of j courtesy
towards opponents, and those dif
fering in views of policy, which en
titles it to pablio respect, j
Tne "locals" of The Beacon bear
the marks of Mr. Albright's well
trimmed pencil. I

the Methodist Protestant ! Chorcb,
publ'uhed by Eev. J, L. Michaux.
It was established in the month of
Feb. 1874. The office is well
furnished and the paper remarka
abiv well printed. Mr. Michaux is
a good writer, as well as preacher,
and has the advantage of several
years experience, as wall as natural
tact, in hit vocation of Editor. The
Protestant is not only the faithfal
organ of its own denomination, but
manifests the enlarged and liberal
views of the genuine Christian,
commending itself to every family
in the country desiring the weekly
visits of a sound and lively ex
ponent of religion and morals, to
gether with the current intelligence
ol tho day. i
Papers of the Past.
Several newspapers, of ; more or
less pretension, have been started
in past years, the existense of which
were ephemeral, not requiring any
reminiscent remark. Those which
lived long enough to make an im
press upon their respective circles
of readers deserve an appreciative
" obituary j 1
"The Weeext Message 9 was
started by the Bev. S. D. Bnrapass,
a Minister ot the Methodist Episco
pal church. A specimen j number,
showing the style and character of
the paper, was sent out in May,
1851 ; and tne regular issue com
menced in October following. De
cember 12th of the same year Mr.
BumDassdied: but the issue of the
paper was con tinned under proprie-
PalT ...... . r r
m
torshiu ot his widow. Bev, James
Jameison had editorial control
about a year. The publication was
afterwards under the sole ; manage
ment of Mrs. Bum pass, 'and was
continued until 1872 twenty years,
ith the exception of an interval of
about one year during tne. war.
The Editress was assisted by cor
respondents from among the Minis
ters of her ehurch. The. name of
the paper was changed to!XAs Olive
Branch a few years before its dis
continuance . ..
TA TimeF was established by
Ogbnrn, Cole & Albright; the two
latter being the active partners, in
the ear 1856. Mr. Cola was the
Drinciitl Editor. The Timet was a
literary and family paper; entirely
eschewing DoliUCS.; ir ftDUiiy
and excellent taate were manifest
ed in the conduct of the paper. The
publication was continued nntil
1SG2, when it literally died in the
tear, both active partners takiug
their lot in the army. Captain Cole
was a most estimable -young, man,
and the death of none of our citi-
a l . t- ff . e-
hzens was mournea wuu oro ueau-
felt sorrow than that of ; GapL u.
when he fell at the battle of the
Wilderness. The Timet was re
vived in 1803 by J. W. Albright &
13 re and was shortly thereafter
merged in the Pateiot.
