"The Daily Rough Notes.,

we make the following extracts from Mr.. Robin
sons prospectus. His paper will be of signal SER
vice to the cause during the campaingn, and we
trust it will be well sustained:-
1--WE propose to publish, at Goldsboro,' N c.,
daily and weekly newspaper, under the above title,
the first number to be issued about the first of May
and to continue until the result of the Presidential
election, in November, be known. They arc intend
ed to be strictly campaign papers, but their publica
ton will be permanently continued, should our pa
tronage justify it. The daily will be of the usual
size, and the weekly about the size of the Raleigh
Standard.
To those who are acquainted with our past politi-
cal history, editor it is needless to say that
the character of paper will be purely Democratic.
To the Hon. John w. Ellis, our present distinguish
ed Governor, the nominee of the Democratic Con-
vention for reelection we will give Cordial untir-
ing support. All other no ninees of the Democratic
party, when fairly nominated, shall receive our
most cordial cooperation, in all their efforts to main
tain the ascendency Of the national Democratic par
ty as the odly party that can, WILL hand down to
posterity, thee instimable blessings of constitu-
tional republic.
While we thus pledge ourselves to stand by our
party, in veal and in woe, we will now and hereaf
ter seek, we have heretofore sought to place the
working man, whether his toll be mental or physi-
CAL on the broadcast possible equality with the most
fortunate and afiluent of his feow-citzens. In do

while, at the same time, will be but following
the native dictates of our own heart.

ious principles shall be admitted to our columns ;
but the political character of every man, who claims
the suffrage of the people, we shall speak of indie

organizers will find in us uncompromising polit
ical enemy.
The superior advantages which GoldSboro posses
scS, for the publishing of daily paper, unIver-
sally conceded. Those advantages We shall endea-
vor to improve and thus place papers, daily
and weekly, nearly as possible on something
bordering on equality with the leading journals
of the State.
The Daily paper will be issued every morning
and furnished to subscribers during the Presiden-

ditional for the balance of the year-tl 1st May,
