In the preparation of matter great care has been taken, and will continue to be taken so long as the Banner shall remain in its present hands, thst nothing shall go into its columns which the most careful parent would hesitate tor any member of the fami ]y to read, and that its news matter shall be solid, substantial, and true. We shall give no space to scandal or mere sensationalism, the fostering of which by the daily and weekly press of the country is perhaps the most demoralizing agency of the times; but will lurlber to the utmost ot our ability whatever tends to improve the moral and material condition of our city, our county, and our State. We have tic higher ambition than to con tribute to this end. It is our purpose to devote a part of the paper to the purely literary, and as soon as we get to running smoothly in our new grooves wo will j C,L - V ' publish each week a choice story and • i> r j IlCe Bismarck gels low, mid says carefully selected poetry.

This construction misrepresents Mr, Stephens’s position, and as an article therefore, shows an average increase in the editorial columns of the Bans nek some days ago may have^Ke^f worded so as to contribute to this misconstruction, we lake pleasure in quoting from a letter to the editor of this paper, in which Mr. Stephens says that, whi'c it is true, as stated in the Banner, that he had not contemplated publishing inch a letteme Dr. ton’s, he “ secs nothing in that letter which, in his judgment, is objection able to any true democrat or |iatijoh nothing that is uol true, and not a single view expressed which does not tend, if profited by, to build up the true democracy of the country, instead of destroying it;” and refers us to a letter of bis in the Washington Star, of November 28th, wherein he says that he has uniformly said of Dr. Fel ton’s letter substantially what we have quoted above.

The most news in the least space, will bo our motto. With this purpose to publish iu Athens such a paper as ought to be published at such a place, we will say, conclusion, to the people of the place, Our rigid modesty relents, and we are constrained to print the following high compliment from a distinguished Georgian, once a resident of Athens: “I read the Daily Banner with a great deal of interest, and I think the j puplished by Dr. Felton people of Athens must soon feel a | that he slid concur with them iu the deep interest in its success. It is the j main, if not wholly. We meant mere- most marked manifestation of real |y to signify our tlihibt that he fully life that I have yet seen in that ! approved Dr. Felton’s act in publish ing the letter, and this doubl. was ex pressed iu \ iew jof the fact lhat the letter was tiist published in Radical papers; and we said we had no idea that Mr. Stephens wouid commit such an act, or contemplated so publishing his views. As much has been said concerning Mr. Stephens’s wishes and utterances on the subject of the next presidency, wc publish, in another column of to day’s Banner, a letter f oni himself to the Baltimore Evening Bulletin, iu of 781,000 a year—a percentage ,wffcb( supposing the inhabitants al-> ways to multiply at the same rate, would double the population imo 58 years; whereas in Sweden, according to a similar meljbqd ot calculation, QmsJNnA would only he attained in 62 years, in Germany in 68, in Bel gium- in Austria in 95, in ■Switzerland in 99, and in France in 165 years. The high percentage of mortality in Russia is chiefly caused by the -numerous deaths among chil dren, more than the lotirth part of whom perish before they are a year old; whereas in Prussia, of 1,000 in fants only 165, and in Eoglaud still fewer, 140, die before that age. Measles, scarlatina and diphtheria, soys the Novoye Vrenut, are makiug ravages among children in the capi tal, and iu certain districts of the em pire the danger is so great lhat sever al colleges and infant schools have been closed AFTER THE ELECTION. cently wrote of herself to Lady Mary Wortley Montague as a most miser able being. §/• SANTA The municipal election is now over, and with it let all bickerings and partisanship that may have been cn- gei dcred by the contest be buried. The raee has been warmly and earn estly contested on both sides, and while the successful candidates may be congratulated, the defeated ones have nothing to he ashamed of, having made a gallant fight and a creditable race.

The New York Financial Chron icle of the 28th lilt, makes tbo visible supply of cotton 1,984.C47 bales, an increase of 148,470 over last year, an increase of 133,054 over 1877, and a decrease of517,683 from 1876. The nineteen interior towns received fer the week ending the 28th, 145.203 hales, shipped 100,018, and had stocks of 264,183. Same week last year re ceipts were 93,611, shipments 76,190, stock 205,912. From plantations since August 31st have been received 2,391,880, against 1,930,494-last year, and 1,640,117 i« 1877. Tbe Chronicle thof§rammarizee the telegraphic reports of the weather for the week ending the 28th of Novem ber: Tbo weather the past week has been, as a general thing,'.favorable for gathering in the crop. Probably, taking the country together, this has been as good a season as was ever known for maturing tho top crop, and securing the cotton in good condition. Picking this year will be generally finished from December 1st to Decem ber 20th—a very large section of country at tho former date. M. IV.
