and vicinity. This Geld, if we'll worked
over, will afford material enough to fill
with interesting matter, . paper much
larger than ours.
In the second place, We do not think
that general news. and long winded ed.
itorials upon the leading topics Of the
day, come within the scope of . county
paper, generally, and particularly in
u own case. Being away from rail-
road and telegraph facilities, not even
the advantage Of q daily mail. oil the
source from which We could gather the
material for a general newspaper would
be from other papers, many Of which
are already taken by our own subscri.
bers, and by the time q rehash could be
thus given. would be old and stale.
Our paper is too small to contain any
great amount Of reading matter. Those
who take an interest in the affairs Of the
great outside world generally are sub
scribers Of the large, city papers, which
are furnished at extremely low rats,
much cheaper tban the bare cost Of is
suing the smallest Of county papers.
If We succeed in furnishing q good
local paper, We are satisfied our labors
in that line will, in the end. be satisfac.
tory to our friends, and it will certainly
gil the Measure Of our own ambition.
