At the request of Col. DuBose we have
consented to the above arrangement,
and will devote such labor to the edito-
rial columns of this paper, during the
period that he may be absent as will
not interfere with other engagements.
His course is doubtless correct, as'this
will leave the LEDGER free 10 discuss the
merits Of our candidates, and to conduct
the canvass with vigor which would be
restrained by feelings of delicacy in one
Of the nominees But we could wish
that the responsibility had fallen on
worthier shoulders; that some one else
had been found to direct the course OF
this journal during the temporary with
drawal of its able and respected editor.
Nevertheless, the task is assumed, and
to its execution we will devote whatever
energy and capacity we possess, during
the hours Of the day that can be spared
from other duties. NJ
