The Commencement of Vol. K.

This number commences the tenth volume of
the TINES, under its present management and we
fnl it imp Dssiblc to crowd in an extended article
prepared for the occasion, but feel conscious
that our readers would prefer to read as much
current news as it is possible to get in. Although
we cannot say our ten years Of work has been
profitable pccuniarily, we can say, with feelings
of pride and pleasure, that they have been the
pie nsantest years of our editorial life, and while
We are aware that have not accomplished
that great journalistic feat Of pleasing every
body, we have the satisfaction of knowing that
better men THAI VIC have signally failed in
that attempt and in looking back upon our
course we can find nothing in il we would
change, and have no apologies to make, except
tho want of ability to do more and better for
the County What have done has been act
uach by an honest desire to do the best for the
County of Union, not even asking whether it
was popular or not. Our past is before the peo-
pie and we have no incentive Tram tie pcoplc to
promise any change or Improvement in the fI-
ture Should that incentive be given us. how
ever the people may rest assured that they will
realize the benefit in larger and, in every re-
spcet, much better paper.
Honestly wishing for the whole people of the
County of Union in particular and the State of
South Carolina in general, peaceful. happy
and prosperous New Year we settle down to
another twelve months Of labor.

We call attention to the advertisement Of that
most excellent Lady and eminent Teacher, Miss

important position of teacher of young Ladies,
her long and successful experience in some of
the best Institutions at the South and her pure

to the most favorable consideration Of oil in this
