BACK AGAIN.

Our whole crew, from editor TO devil,
after laborious "trip down the river have re-
turned TO their post, and to-day, we tie loose,
lift the :grouscr,' and again pull our 'raft' out
into the stream. The history of our "trip shall
laid before our readers in due time, but at
present have to apologize for the non-ap-
pearance Of the Journal for the last two weeks.
We did think something of putting the press
on the raft when we started, and issuing a pa
per when we landed in Mother Moore's eddy,
but it was limited, by somebody, that 'SJames''
manufactured hickory brooms, in the handling
of which the old lady was '.cOnsiderably dex-
trous," and we began to think we had better
keep ourselves scarce lest we should have SOC
cular demonstration of her power. Conse-
oUently, our readers have been two weeks
without the Journal, but we are now home
again, and they shall receive it regularly
every week
