The Crockett National Democrat, former
~ the Quil Nunc, has again changed hands
and name. 1t now comes to MS under The
name of the Sentinel, published by Lsav-
erton & Hall, and edited by A. D. Sloan.
The late editor in his valedictory, says:
"In our political views we fiud ourselves
in advance OF public opinion, and failed
in consequence to obtain the support neces-
sary TO enable us TO conduct and publish
paper. . ".4E DAD.
The new editor in his Salutstory, has the
following paragraph.
While we shall freely and without re-
| serve advocate all matters and measur o
which in our opin on will be conducive TO
the public good, or to the building up Of
our great state, or immediate section, VIC
shall OF the same time endeavor to main
tain n just, chartab e, and concila'ory
disposition toward all who may differ with
us in our political opinions. If we may
have been blinded during the last five years,
in our zeal for the success Of the Southern
cause, We now feel that we are Invested Of
all prejudice, and can look upon and APP
preciate the situation of affairs as they &C
| tually exist, and our efforts will be, in the
discussion of all matters, directed to the
discovery OF the truth and the public good.
We intend to place ourselves upon broad,
conservative but independent grounds and
will not be sweryed or altered in our deter
mination by any clique or set Of individ-
uals.
