by the present proprietor since the LIST of March
1872 Consequently our first year has expired and
we embrace the opportunity express our thanks to
the readers of the paper for their very liberal pat
roBage.
The publisher has necessarily been absent (attend-
ing to the closing up of his business in another part
OF the country during the past year, and whatever
credit is due for the ability or taste which has char
aeerzed the paper during that period, must be given
to the young gentleman who has acted as Editor pro
tenn. Having now taken up our permanent residence
In Lchfield we shall for the future devote what of
ability and industry we are possessed of to the COL
umns of the Enquirer, and shall endeavor to make it
an acceptable weekly visitor to those who have long
been its patrons, and such others as may be indu
ced to give it their support.
The political character of the Enquirer will remain
unchanged, except that we shall probably devote
less space to party politics than has heretofore been
given. Strongly as we convinced of the impor-
lance of the principles and measures of the Demo-
cratic Wing party to the prosperity and happiness OF
the country, we are satisfied that the great majority
OF our political opponents are as conscientious in
their opinions are in ours, and in our advoca-
cy OF our own views shall never Intentionally in
jure the feelings of those who differ from u.s. Espe-
ciay shall we endeavor to abstain from all unneces-
sary personal attacks which not only produce alien
alton of feeling among neighbors but generally in
iure the cause they intended to subserve.
We intend that this paper, small it is shall con-
tain all the important news of the day, condensed
from our exchange papers, and such miscellaneous,
moral literary and agricultural reading, to render
worthy OF the continued support Of the good peo-
pie of Litch6ed County.
Those subscribers who have paid nothing on their
subscriptions during the past year, are reminded that
Is an excellent practice to pay up the printer every
year, at least as soon the year closes. We are
pleased to notice on our books large number who
paid long before the year ended and who no doubt
will do so again, and thus encourage the editor tc
more faithful exertions to entertain them
Our subscribers in tho village will be waited unor
in few days for the amount due on their subscr;n
tons. Ofcourse they will have the ''ready" ready
