Valedictory.
Time, wiith one (ell swoop of hi* Jong
hoarv pinions sweeps the dinry iirelics of
this world, :aud brings about eireumstnii
cos which compel men to act, lie is the
conqueror whom men obey, ami when
compared wttbli him even years in their
might seem like atoms in the sun’s
broad rays, jor lie sweeps them all in his
majestic HigJ.it, scattering them from his
plum*-* like *.Li;ojs ot spray as the ocean
easts t lie w ater in its scornful play from
its blue bosofliu:. Floating unpreeeptible
1 0; "Sight, *Le diffuses life and death.
S'\vilt stars shoot round in their rapid
flight, dropping like gems from in id -
nights blue profound, sweeps on through
vast eternity, and each Mazing sphere in
its course revolves; the sunny stream
gioes singing on to the sea, and the blue
waves upon the Imaeli dissolves like wo
mans hopes, and manhoods height re
solves, yet time unwearied and sublime
m> busy painting ou the canvass of years
the changes wrought# by his ruthless
band. Upon the broad bosom of his dus
ky hearse he is healing pale millions to
the eternal shores and through the dim
pathway of midnights lonely hour, he
touches the young and beautiful am! thev
die.
He touches the commercial world and it
Hux nates and hoars marks of his ravages,
he lays his baud on some pet enterprise ol
ours and by force of circumstances we
are compelled to change our purposes. j
One year ago we were busy collecting i
together material to establish in this I
county a paper to he known as the (I a
-7l'.tt k, and now we arc just as busv pre- j
paring to surrender it to other manage-'
ment. \\ e now have tlie proud satis
(action to know that we did establish it,
and in a measure run it successfully.
W bile it is true we labored under many
disadvantages, yet we kept the concern
out of debt, and leave it in good shape
lor our sticessor. Our intercourse with
the people of Dade lias in the main been
pleasant, and to those who gave us en
couragement in word, action, and “kale
seed” we are under everlasting obliga
tions.
e take our leave of the comity hop
lu that the O azkttrmay receive an un
stinted support, and feel that under the
management of T. and . Lumpkin, it will
in a hold and fearless manner defend the
right and condemn the wrong, Hrothcr
L. is no stranger to you, and we bespeak
for him a liberal support. We* do hope
that the enterprising citizens of Dade,
will foster and cherish the enterprise in
the county. To onr successor ve turn j
oyer all unfinished business, he is to till
out all our subscriptions and advertising
so that by our move no one will loose a
cent.
binally brethren farewell and to you
we will give it strictly ml charge to sup
port your county paper, by every word
and work.
Salutatory,
Wo are frequently by the force of eir
i. instances caused to act otherwise than
no would, if these contingencies did not
arise. So the acts of one person not un
frequently causes others to act. So bv
the purchase of the Jasper ileral'd, Tv
the former editor of the Gazette, and/
liis removal to Jasper to take charge of
the Herald office, necessitated a change
in the editoiial department of this (►dice.
In taking charge of t lie Gazette, Ido
it knowing at the same time, that hut
few men are able within them reives to
publish a newspaper that will meet the
aprobation of every one.
My aim will be to make the Gazette
a first class county paper, full of choice
reading and, the latest news, such
that fhe most fastidious would not for a
moment hesitate to advise their children
to reuTl.
ft will be devoted to the interests of
tlie county, and as a watchman upon tlib
tower, will call attention to what in the
opinion of the editor will be of greatest
interest, to the people.
Politically thU paper will evei be found
battling for the time honored principal*'
af I hmioeraey.
\\ e propw.v for the paper to speak foi
itself, and feel confident that it will de
serve. the libci.il patronage of the people.
We know that it is almost impossible to
run a paper, successfully, without the
co-operation of tlm people in the Commu
nity iu which it is published, htit waferl
Confident that it will receive that liberal
p'atronngc, which wo conceive MmftM be*
extended t • all home eaten rises, the fos
tering of which adds materially to the
wealth of tlie country.
While the Cazktti: is secular, still in
tone and character, it will be moral.
We have reduced tin? .subscription
price, to one dodai per annum, hoping
thereby to place i:. within ca?y reach ot
the people,

Senator Thurman arrived in the city,
yesterday, and left for Deer Dark, at
which place he will prepare, a speech
which he will deliver in Dliio tin* latter
end of the present month.- lie says, be
••vi! 1 make speeches through the whole
campaign if his health trill permit, lie
believes Ewing will be and ought to he
elected. No man in tho country has a
dearer head than Senator Thurman and
lu* will have great weight in Ohio. He
has for three years carried more influ
ence in Congress than any other mail.
I'ho N V. Tribune is always unfair.
It was as munch so when training with
the “reforms” as, few years ago, treat
ing its opponents then as unfairly as it
now does the democratic and conserva-
| tivo people of thf country. The latest
exhibition of its meanness is fyund in a
continued arraigment of the present I km*
ocratic, ( 'ongress for passing a law by
i which payments to soldiers of the late
volunteer army a.e delayed in each ease
: for a year or so. The truth is that a
Democratic ( ongress did nothing of the
♦
kind. The bn*# on the subject is now
just what it has been, for many years.
It is a law passed by a radical Congress
and John Sherman is its Senatorial
fatoe.r. Until the same Sherman became
Secy, this particular law has been bold
not to apply to soldiers. When, llayes
Sherman and the other soldier loving pa
triots came in, 1577, they, by a strained
construction of the law, made it apply
the small claims of soldiers and the wid
ows and orphans of soldiers. What,
Hentwell was not small enough to do,
Sherman did. The quarrel of the vol
unteer soldiers, if they have any, is not
with a Democratic Congress, hut with a
radical Secretary.
(>ne of the leading morning papers
here says that attorney gen. Deven.s has
his eye on the United Stale Senatorship
as successor of Mr. Davis, which is not
the ease, as it is well know that judge
Devens would last winter have taken tin*
appointment of judge of tin* New England
Circuit as successor to the late Judge
Simpler, had he not thought there was
a strong probability of a vacancy at an
early day on the United State Supreme
Court bench, on. account of the, greatly
advanced age of Mr. Justice <' lit ort which
.fudge Devon dmjMiess hopes may com
pel him to go on the letired, list before
Mr. Haves term of office expires. The
friends of the distinguished senior Jus
tice throghout e utry will be glad
to learn that his health was novel better
than, at this time, and that lie gives
promise, of many years of service in the
position which lie so much honors and
adorns. Hkxton.
