The New Year.

We can mol look back upon the past
year without feelings Of great sadness. but
~e are no, without hope that it will teach
us all an important lesson and make Us
wiser for the future. While our land has
been dtaped in mourning al The loss Of SO
many OF her brave sons, who have fallen
BY HE red hand Of war, We can ieel that
,hc laurel is cntwined among the cy press
and that they fell in accuse that tnej
deemed just. and died as brave men and
patriots love to die tor lhcir homes and
native land. and glory will always ,ur-
round ,hei. names, aud love will console
itself in the touching words Of the poet
I'm the God Of battles trust 1!
Die he may, and die he must;
But, q, SheIe CAN dust 10 dust
BE copsign d so well,
As when Heaven its dews doth shed
On the maltyred patriots bed
And the rock. shall rear their head
OF his deeds to tell !"
Thi, i, . new year 10 our Republic.
The past is forgotten and all lis wrongs
aud It's errors in the deep ocean OF obli'-
ion buried. We have started out on a
new journey. and let US avoid The shoals
and quicksanJs OF the past. The teach
ings of party fer the sake Of parry must
be strictly guarded against. and learning
wisdom from experience, steer clear OF
the rocks tina, came near dividing Us in
twain, Let there be union IN hea:l as
veil as in hand, but Is oil will not ak
with water, so there can be no bonafide
union without cordial sympathy and a
community OF interest. Then indeed
v i'll we be lone as The sea, bu. many as
The pillows" "A thousand hands, but
one heat"
We wish our readers success in all
their laudablc undertakings in The coming
year, and may the cloud that now hover
over our land be soon dispersed, and the
run shine out upon restored and happy
Union. May our waste and desola'ed
region be made 10 blossom as the rose,
and the far.fsmej lower valley DO made TO
WELD an abundance az in the past.
We send forth our paper too with hopes
Of an increased circulation and patronage.
and as prosperity returns to our people
