The undersigned will commence, on or about the DJth
daj’ of January next, the publication of
A Daily and Weekly Paper
Bearing the above title in the Town of Fayetteville, N. t .
The COURIER will be Democratic in tone and senit-
ment, and will seek at all times and upon all occasions
to guard vigilantly the interests of the Soufh.
It is a difficult task at any time to understan.I clearly
the drift of events, especially when a great crisis is ap
proaching. For some time past we have been fami
liarizing ourselves with the idea that at a day not wr
distant we shall have to battle for our interests. Re
cent events have shown that our opinions were correct,
and that we were compelled to defend ourselves frfliu
the invader. It can not be denied, although it is re
lished by no one in this section, that the breach between
the North and the South is daily becoming wider. Our
duty, then as men, true to our interests, is to girU up
ourselves for the contest and be prepared for all even
tualities. That it is the duty of every one to do what
ever lies in his power to avert this awful disaster, is
cheerfully recognized by all classes.
In conducting the COURIER, whatever energy or
alent I m ay possess will be directed towards the per
petuity of the Union and equality of the States, and in
maintaining those political principles which have been
tested and proven to be the only mode by which the
affairs of our country can be properly managed.
Although the particular tenets of the Democratic
party will be argued, 1 will concele to political 0PP_J'
nentsthe prerogative which 1 claim for myself, and will
endeavor to do my duty without giving oftence to any
one.
