TO Fl PUBLIC.

The foregoing Valedictory Of the Editors anu
proprie,ors will announce to my friends ard the
public that | have purchased the office entire, ana
have resolved to undertake alone, the heavy and
responsible duty of managing the affairs OF 'he En-
orIIEg. | have adopted this course very reluc-
family and with many misgivin@s: not because
my faith in the kindness ana generous liberallty OF
the EyouIRER's friends has many degree diminish
| ed, but rather because I feel kecrly that my ahii
ties and my purse are far too inadequate to the
task derolyed upon me. am resolved. however,
to spare no labor. My success in life, the main
tenance Of my family, the interests Of the people
in the midst of whom | have been raised and
/! whose well being ! have learned to regard with
! sirrlcness Of eve. NJ earnest devotion to all infu.
cuct. which tendt IT, promote the honorof the print
ter's craft-thcse viii, l am sure, be incentives
strong enough TO nerve me on to the highest rur-
pose, and make Inc to work increasingly. These
considerations, too, will suffice. | hope, 10 assure
the friends and patrons Of the paper; and throw
around my humble efforts the mantle Of that CHAIR.
ty which always seeks to hide the faults Of the
! earnest and honest laborcr.
The editorial department will be conducted by
SAN'L. W. MELToN, Esq. Ofhis qualifications for
the task, it is unnecessary for me to urge a word.
The readers Of the ESQUIIER know his pen and
they will be as ready and as willingas l have been
to extend to him q warm grasp Of wccomc. OF
! course, the tone Of the paper will partake largely
of the spirit which formerly marked its conduct
in q political aspect, especially, involving an A.
most entire change. need not say that the politi-
cal character Of a paper is the reflex Of the politi-
cal character Of its editor-the doctrines it urges,
are those Of the editor alone; and the reader will
no, expect, in this particular, any material differ
encc between the principles that are in future to
! direct the editorial columns, and those which
marked the course Of the paper during the first
two years of its %existenc. On all other topics
! especially in the advocacy Of temperance and a
sound morality, the course of the ENQUIRER will.
| know, be right onward.
The selections Of reading matter will devolvc
upon myself. will. also, cndcavor to manage,
! alone, the financial ard business departments. and
will always be found in the Office really to do q
prompt and willing service to my patrons. The
job Office, which is already well supplied, will be
| continually repleni$hed with needful material. and
every effort will be made by me to fill all orders
in that department, neatly and with despatch. In
n few days | expect to receive a new machine
! C,,l lp,.,r. ,rb;cl, will onoh1p mo IN nr;rt corlS
bill. heads, circulars, envelopes, etc., at rates lower
than can be obtaired elsewhere out of Columbia
and Charleston. The supply of Law Blanks will
be kept up diligently and, in fine, in all the de-
partments of the business, / shall employ my best
effort to meet satisfactorily the demands of the
public.
BY the terms Of purchase, payment will be due
mt since the first of January last and all sums
due before that date are payable to ions L. MIL
LER & Co. The accounts, however, remain III the
Office, ard I shall take pleasure in settling with
all who may call.
T. nv former CO. lahorers | extend the parting
hand with sincere regret. The ability which has
marked their management has made it 4 pleasure
20 work after them ard the uniform klhdilcsS
and forbcarance which they have constantly ex-
tended to me merit ard receive ny unfeigned
gratitude. My warmcst wishes 90 with them,
throughout their journey Of life, that their lahors
may be crowEcd with abundant success, and their
II, n reward be the - we'll done Of the faithful
servant.
Ir.cd say nothing more. With the assurances
: T.hnyr given. md Knowing that my OWN diligence,
and strict ,t;"Mtinu 70 business will be my best
guaranty. [ leave il TO the patrons Of the En-
; ouIrrR, and TO a generous public, to mcte ont my
reward just as the measure Of my lohors may de-
serve 70 be rewarded.
