The ENQUIRER and Examiner.

The ENQUIRER and the Examiner, as we an
nounced yesterday, have been merged into
one paper, which bears the above title.
The first issue under the new arrangement
was made yesterday morning. 1t promises
to be well edited, and to be an able organ
of the conservative party.
W. D. COLEMAN, Esq, is announced as
the managing editor. Mr.. COLEMAN is all
experienced journalist, and we'll qualified
for the position. a. NJ. BAILEY, Esq, is
the business manager-a first-rate one, il
we may be allowed to judge. "May his
shadow never grow less"
We return with our best bow the "re-
spectrul salutation" Of our contemporary,
and trust that its days may be long in this
land of freedom. If it intends to be any
more independent than is the Dispatch,
so much the better; but we claim to be-
long to that identical class of Journals.
