TO OUR PATRONS.

The present number closes the first
volume of the News, and we take this
opportunity 10 present our compliments
Of respect to our patrons. In taking a
retrospective view of the past year, since
we made our Introductory bow to the
public, and following up from month to
month the kind attentions we have re-
ceived at the hands of those who were
our old friends and patrons, in the palmy
days of the Times, as well as of those
whose acquaintance We have since made
under the most favorable omens, we are
constrained to express our feelings of
gratitude for favors in business way,
that enable us at this time to announce
that the News is a fred and paying in-
stitution, and that we are ready to renew
the subscription of all our old subscribers
so soon as the dollar shall be received !;
and any Others who have not hitherto ia
vored us with their patronage will find
their names entered most cheerfully in
our list of subscribers, and we promise 70
use our best endeayors 10 give them a
satisfactory equivalent in choice reading
matter, the general news of the day, and
particularly, so much as shall appertain
to our local interests, believing it our
bounden duty to encourage home indus.
try and protect home rights, reform home
abuses, grievances and evils, and build up
home institutions, moral and educational,
rather than those foreign 10 our locality
and interests.
Never, since we appeared before the
public in the capacity of public printers,
have we been favored with such an
amount of job work as during the past
year, even to degree that we have found
il difficult at times, 10 issue our paper up
on the fixed day of publication. For
this expression of confidence and good
will from those who have favored us, ire
spectiye Of party preferences, we are
thankful; and VIC are determined still to
do all kinds of job printing, cards, hand
bills, show-bills, &c, DC, in the neatest
possible manner, and on the most reason
able living terms, and with the least pos
sible delay. AS we do our work mostly
within ourselves, we can and aUiU make
il an object for the public to call upon us
and ask our terms, at least, before deciding
upon having their work done elsewhere
though we have no wish to run opposi-
ton to any one, only DESTROYS of living
and letting live.
And in conclusion, as we are midway
between the days Of special interest tc
all, we wish the world in general and ou
patrons in particular Happy New
Year, presuming that they have all en-
joyed Merry Christmas, and don't for
gel the dollar for the next years subscrip
ton to the News.

Why IT FAnED.-The Harpcr's Ferry
incursion failed solely because Of the 10y
atty of the slaves. Brown, on the day
of his execution, reproached Cook for
having deceived him with reference to the
disposition of the slaves. Cook denied
that he had done so; but whatever may
be the merits of this question of veraci-
ty, there is no shadow Of doubt that, if
the negroes had flocked TO Browns stand
ard as he anticipated they would do, q
bloody Instruction would have ensued,
the limits of which no man can conject-
ure. At the very best, hundreds Of lives
would have been destroyed, many towns
would have been reduced to ashes, and
CONSERVATION would have prevailed thro'-
out the South.
1t must be most annoying to the. abo-
litionists that the Virginia slaves reject
ed the liberty which was offered them
Before another John Brown shall under
take to repeat the affair of Harper's Fer
nv, he will be wise to have better un-

the spirit of old John Brown was raped
up from the spirit world, when the old
man, or rather his spirit, appeared and
conversed with his friends for long time.
Among other things, he owned up to the
numbering Of the Doyles, &c, in Kansas,
and closed by saying that he was now To-
Gated in the lowest sphere, and that "he
