gHE NEWS FOR. TIE oAMPAIGN-
GREAT INDUCEMENTS TO CLUBS.

The importance of the great political con-
test upon which we have now fairly 'red
RENDERS the dissemination among the people
sofsound political views and accurate and ear
Nv information of the progress and incidents
.of the canvass, q matter Of peculiar interest
.and expediency. Every individual who has
.anv stake in the welfare Of these Southern
Estates, should give an active, personal and un-
,eaaeeing support to the candidates of the
National Democracy-SEYMoUR and BLAIR. A
Ytriumph OF the Radicals will result in the
rutter desolation and ruin OF the South, and
,:the placing OF an ignorant and brutal race in
all POSITIONS and places Of honor and trust, to
tthe exclusion of the white race. The govern
ement must be wrested from the thieves ana
;plunderers who now have control OF it, and
;power placed in the hands OF party pledged
ito give peace to distracted country, and to
make it q government for white men, and not
zfor negroes. It is only necessary that the peo-
,ple should; be thoroughly informed to sccom-
spIish this, and The NEWS will be an admirable
$ means of diffusing this information. In order
TO place the paper within the reach Of oil, we
.have saopted scale Of reduced rates OF sub
.scription for she four months covering the
Pre sidential canvass, and offer besides peculiar
Inducements for the formation Of clubs. We
are d determined that TIE NEWS shall be the
cheapest and best newspaper in the South.
Its blows win fall thick1y, steadily and rapidly;
anddf Che friendsof Law, order and the Con-
@st;tution do their duty, BY extending its circu-
.lation, its labors can be made powerfully efec-
stive for good. We appeal then, to our readers
to examine our remarkably low terms, and go
