THE NEW VOLUME.

The Fifth Volume Of the COURIER closed
with the termination of the exciting political
campaign in this State. In our understand
ing of them, wo havo ondeavored to advocate
the true interests Of the people with candor
and fairness, avoiding, as far as possible, all
personal bitterness. The people are sovereign
in Republic, and it should be the aim of the
journalist to instruct their minds and elevate
their moral tone by the force of reason and
truth, without appealing to the passions and
prejudices of the ignorant. We can say, VIC
have tried to do this, whether successfully OF
not. The die is now cast, though the resul,
is unknown. Whether or not the decision be
favorable to the party we have advocated, the
COURIER will continue its weekly visitations
to our patrons, speaking, through its columns
tho news of the World in matters of Religion
Government, Agriculture and Trade,-in
structipg the youth and manhood of the
country in the ways Of virtue and intelligence
and pleasing all.

The Late Elections,

In Pennsylvania, Ohio, Indiana, Iowa and
Nebraska, says the New York Herald, estab.
lish the facts, that the majority Of tho pco
pie Of the United States accept, endorse and
approve the administration Of Gen. Grant
that the Republican party are sure of a ma.
jority in the house Of Representatives of the
next Congress and that General Grant is
good for another term against any opposing
candidate. Neither party seems to have sc
cured any great accessions since 1868. We
must romember that the Republican party Of
the North is very different from the Radical
party in South Carolina.
