After thanking our friends for the courteous and
complimentary terms in which they have been
pleased to notice u.s. we have few words to say in
regard to one idea prominently advanced, to wit;
the character of the Intelligencer conveyed in

We wish it to be distinctly understood. that we
have embarked in the publication Of this paper not
only with the intention of continuing it. but with
the determination of sustaining the character OF
the first numbers. We have not gone into 1t
without mature thought and deliberations
out considering every difficulty we should encoun-
ter, every prejudice we should hnreto overcome,
and every species Of opposition we should III any
possible contingency have to combat. Nor have
we spared expense in adopting the improvements
of the day. and in procuring all the materials ne
cessary to produce such paper as the growing
Importance of the city and the increased wants of
Western Virginia and the surrounding country, de-
manded. This fact any one at all conversant
with the arrangements of the office, can attest

Having encountered such expense and labor, it

ed effort to succeed. With all the favorable auspi

Establishment of the kind have received at the out
set, we candidly confess that, like all newspaper
enterprises, it is an experiment-an experiment at
which better men than we have failed. But
we wish this point to be distinctly understood
and it is the main one which we now wish TO i'm
press on the minds of the public---lDe shall, in no
epent, retrograde. Every good feature which our
paper possess shall be retained, and the only al
terations will be newer and more improved ones.
Every printer and every editor will understand us
when we say our first issues cannot be as good rs
the subsequent ones can be made. Difficulties
and distinctions, which have somewhat trameled
us, are fast disappearing, and we hope, Gin short
time, to attain our highest STANDARD Of Daily
Commercial, Political, Literary and Miscellaneous

We repeat we shall not retrogade.2 We have an
Office surpassed by few in the West, in extent and
arrangement, we have the opinion Of our editorial
brethren abroad, of all parties that we ought to be
sustained in Wheeling, if We do just as we are now
doings and we have the assurance of our citizens
that we shall be sustained, and we have the de-
termination TO make fair trial. IT, after we have
made that TRIAL, we find that we cannot be. sus-
tanned, we shall not-no we shall not retrogade
I've shall not make our paper Less expensive OF
less valuable, but shall candidy tell the public
that their assurances delusiye, and that they
win have TO seek another paper, either inferior or
otherwise better suited to their inclinations -
