PUBilsHED IN RICHMOND, VIRGINIA.,
AT the lo,p price OF ONE DOLLAR per annunl,
S the cheapest weekly newspaper south of the
i Potomac, and as cheap any in the Union.
This paper is made up chiefly from the Daily
Dispatch, consisting of the entertaining and
news matter of that sheet, and carefully selected
light literature and poetry.
HuGH r. PLEAsANTs, Principal Editor.
1t is designed to make 1t equal to any Weekly
sheet in the Union for its general interest. In
tone and sentiment, it is Southern-its conductors
are Virgnians, and they hope to merit and re-
ceive the encouragement of their fellow-czens.
They enter upon no mere speculation in their en-
terprize, nor are their views and opinions shaped
merely to catch the popular breeze. From edu-
cation, from position, from association, from in
terest, from choice, they Southern men. Their
defence Of Southern rights is defence Of them
selves and all they hold dear;--that it has been
warm unremittlng, and as far as their capacity al
lowed, vigorous, no man who has read their sheet
will deny. To doubt that it will continue to be
so is to presume that the principles and ideas
birth, can be eradicaied, at period of life when
men rarely change their views They, at least,
know it to be impossible.
