- Volume No. ft.
Contrary to the expectations of
some, bat in harmony with the wishes
of many, our ' little “dug-ont" has
weathered the storms of the sea of
journalism for a year, arrived at the
goal, and now with renewed deterini-
nation set out anew on its second year.
In its voyage it has passed through
many dangers, been beaten back by
adverse breezes, and at times seemed
well nigh ready to go under—especial
ly so when it saw the hungry waves of
the strait of Greenbacks mnke for her,
having just swallowed up iu full view
such crufts us the 8uv. Register, Jesup
Georgian, Wayne Triumph, Sav, Ad
vertiser, Atlanta Herald, then the Cou
rier, and lastly the Southeast Georgian
—all of them with “heap bigger ’ cap
tains, broader sails, weightier anchors
and more dazzling penunts.
And just here we would pause a mo
ment to “grind up” our editorial tom
ahawk, by way of making a few passes
at the scalps of some' of o r dear breth
ren of the quill-driving fraternity. For
aught they cared, our little boat might
have sunk a thousand times over, and
we been swallowed, JouA-like, by
some big fish, and, maybe, heaved up
three days and nights later upon some
unfriendly shore. Just now we can
only recall two exchanges who have
ever given us a kindly word: the Sav.
Register and the Macon Telegraph and
Messenger. The former struck a rock
and went under long since;—(peace
to its ashes!) —the latter has lost its
compass, or our name, perhaps, for we
hnve not seeu its smiling countenance
for over two weeks. Shame, brother
Jones! Shame!—the Scripture says:
“Be not weary in well doing. Beud
along your “little prospectus” if you
wish, and we will give it space cheer
fully, but don’t snub us. We like
your paper mneb, and would be pleas
ed to recommend it to our readers, be
ing, as many down this way seem to
think, more closely allied to our inter,
est than any other daily in the State.
But to return. We have weathered
the storm, we say, for one twelve
month, and now ready for another.
Experience, that dear (in price) teach
er, has taught ns many useful lessons,
which we shall endeavor to tv.in to
profit as we advance in years, hoping
thereby to make our little sheet a still
more useful agent in developing our
town and county.
We trust our subscribers of the past
year* have gotten each his dollar’s
worth, aud will still lend us their aid.
Our advertising patrons will please ac
cept our thanks for their generous pat
ronage. Truly hope they will not
lorget that we need some help to con
tinue- as well os commence. To one
aud all we say: Don’t forget where
your true interest lies.
Fresh Butter—Something New.—
Take equal parts, in weight, of Go
shen buttejr aud nice sweet milk;pour
the milk into the butter, a little at a
or.rl stir well until thoroughly ,
mixed; when done, salt to suit the
taste. We have tried the above recipe
and can recommend it to anyone tired
of salt butter. Another advantage
gained is having twice the quantity.
Rancid butter worked iu this way is
said to become sweet—of this, howev
er, we know nothing by experience.
—According to the old rule (the
months with the letter R in them),
