THE EX MINER,
Dailv, Tri-Weekly and Weekly.

TTuE publication of this journal, from circum-
j. stances beyond the control of the proprietor,
has been suspended for some months HaVing re,
Gently received much encouragement from gooa
and true men, it is proposed to resume It's puOlca-
ton without delay, asa
LITERARY AND POLITICAL JOURNAL,
And we are encouraged to believe on such basis
as will preclude any probability Of failure
AS Literary Journal it will be devoted to the
deyclopement Of SOUTHERN TALENT. There
is no paper in this State and very few in the South
ern States that make Literature q distinct and
prominent feature. The aim Of the Conductors Of
THE EXAMINER will be to elevate it to high
standard in this department, which will be under
the control of one Of the ablest and most expert
enced editors in the State, JOHN G. BOWMAN,
ESQ writer well and iavorably known through
out the South.
AS q Political Journal, it will at once take ground
and abide by the old landmarks Of
THE CALHOUN STATE RIGHTS PARTY,
owing no allegiance to any National Party, nor
seeking to advance its interests by subservency to
any local clique whatever 1t will be entirely IN
dependent in its expressions of opinion on pubic
men and measures-in short, the ann VIII De 70
make it faithful representative OF the people, ana
fearless advocate Of the interest OF the State.
The position of the South at this juncture-the aP.
parent trucking Of the appointees and organs OF
the Administration to the Free Soil or Black Rc-
publican Party, as exhibited in the course of the
Governor of Kansas, demand that the Press OF the
South should shake off the shackles Of party, and
unhesitatingy define its position, and avow its de.
termination to maintain and defend the rights OF
the Southern States. 1t is now too late to dePore
the formation OF sectional parties-the South, as
Section, must fight her own battles or be over
whelmed. This department will be under the d.
rection and management Of W. B. JOHNSTON,
ESQ.,, long connected with the Journalism OF South
Carolina. and who is well and favorably known as
an experienced Editor.
We consider it due to all who may be disposed to
sustain it, to avow that in politics the ExAMTNER
will be essential State Rights Journal.
The paper will be continued in the same hand
some style and form as bcfore-a large quarto con-
t,ining eight pages and forty columns of matter
WEEKLY at Two Dollars per annum. 1t is also,
in contemplation to issue from the same Office and
upon the same political principles,
TIE DAILY AND TRI-WEEKLY EXAMINER,
The Daily at Six Dollars and the Tri-Weekly al
Three Dollars per annum.
We have all confidence that the State Rights
Party of South Carolina will sustain at the Capital
of the State, such an organ Of her ancient and well
defined principles Every consideration of patriot
ISM interest and safety demands that in conjunction
with other true journals Of the State, such IN organ
should BIZ established and maintained, Those de-
srous Of subscribing or contributing in any way to
its support, will please address Editors Of the
