Rising Sun Times, Volume 2, Number 79, Rising Sun, Ohio County, 16 May 1835 — Page 3
T.-unAY MORMXfi, MAY 10, 1833. Tbe present niunber of the Times commence the second jear of my editorial labors, and 1 think it a fit occasion to say a word or two to roy patrons. I came among you from a neighboring State, fooling that 1 w as almost an liulinnian, for I was somewhat acquainted with hrr People and her institutions. I did not con-ider myself a tlrangtr, as some of my g-o rf friend s have, in the course of the year, contemptuously '.hrown p to ire. When I came litre I found the people were determined to make a strong effort to remove their Comt House from Lawren eburgh. I was tokl that it was my i!uty to advocate the measure, and I believed it was. Put before 1 commenced advocating the cause, I made myself thoroughly acquainted with the history of the county; and when t found that it was a history of grievances!" the highest order, and of oppression that the People were determined to submit to it no longer and that they "asked nothing that was not clearly tight," I joined in with them, heart and sou!. And it is not be wondered if 1 made some enemies, when endeavoring to disrobe men of power which they had too long held, and which they exercised over whom ihey would; and if 1 have offended any, the reason of my strongly ndvocating the removal of the County Scat, is the whole cause of it. But I am not conscious of having said or written any thing which 1 ought ncv to regret; and if 1 have done any man injustice, I am ready to make all due reparation. Although the County St at question is not yet telticd, yet the people have succeeded in placing it in the hands of Commissioners, and the probability is, it will be decided in a few days ; and if that decision should be contrary to their will, lhv have rei'ress in their own hands, and
"we, arc still ready to asist theni. t liavo now ori my subscription lo..k about one hundred names more than there were when I first came into the oliice. For the greater part of these I am indebted to those who took an interest in the success of the establishment ; and I would be pleased if they would continue their exertions a li .tie longer, for I woulJ as lief print a few hundred more papers as not, for prompt paying subsenhtrs. There are many, very many Farmers, as well a others, in this section of the county, who do not take any newspaper. The reason, they tay, is that they are not able to pay for it. Now if one of these individuals were to come into my office, and say he had concluded to take the Times, and I were to tell him 4hat be was not able to pay for it, it would he considered very insulting. A man must be poor, indeed, if he cannot afford the small sum of $-2 a year for newspapers. Many an individual rxpendsmuch greater sums, and reaps less benefits. But the fact is some people are too penu. rious to let either their children or themselves, have the benefits of a newspaper. 1 am frequently asked if 1 intend to remain at Rising Sun. I certainly calculate to remain here as long as I receive sufficient patronage. My prospects are better at this time than they ver have been, and I intend to nse my every effort to sustain the good opinion my patrons may have formed in relation to the Times. (tj-We are authorized to announce THOMAS HOWARD, F.q. of Randolph township, as a cadidate for R-'prwiUttive in the next Gen -ral Assembly. Tnn corxrv skat. The County Scat question is avrain on the carpet. The Commissioners are to meet at W'ilminjton next Monday, to try the removal rf the Court Hoiisa again to see if they can decide whether it shall be tiken out upon the highlands, brought down to Aurora, or suffered to remain injtlic back waters of Tanner's creek and the floods and freshets of the rivers. We wish the Commissioners could have been in Lawrencebnrg a day or two since they would then have teen the situation of our County Seat at ordinary stages of the river ; and if they had not then agreed to remove, we should think them put poorly qualified for the duties assigned them. But we have never doubted removal yet. We are not willing to believe that any five men could bo found in the State, who would set at defiance the expressed will of twothirds of the people of the county, and suffer the Court Mouse to remain where it is. We will not believe it until it comes to pass. INDIANA ELECTIONS. We hare extracted into our columns to-day an article from the Logantport Telegraph, on the subject of the approaching elections in our State, to the sentiments of which we can most cheerfully and heartily subscribe. We would like to see men elected to office without the influence of party spirit ; but we do not calculate on seeing this; there is too much prejudice, to much hard feeling and enmity existing between the great political parties, to even hope that they will support "principles and measures," instead of "men." . But there is an allusion to a "liberal and impartial system of Internal Improvement," in the article we hare copied, to which we invite attention. We hope the people of this county will vote for no man to represent them who is in favor of the mammoth bill. This magnifi cent 1!! project will most certainly come up before the next session of our Legislature , and it becomes the People those w ho do not w ish to nave a stato aebt oi millions entailed upon their posterity to support men who will op ptosa its passage. We have been told that one r two votes would have carried it through at the last session: we know that the mammoth and anti-mamiDoth parties were almost on a tie; and what would have been the conse qnence if Latcrenecburgh had elected her Representativesf Why, in all human probability, the immmath bill would havebeeu passed, for
it ir.UK tc recollected that thii spien.iid bill provided for making her migh ty Rail Road and her great Canal! So then the people of this county effected more than one object by electing men favorable to the removal of the County Seat. Rut the mammoth bill is not yet put to sleep ; and to those who have the prosperity and welfare of our Slate at heart, we would sav, "See ve to it."
"The Rising Sun Times visits ''ltd and far between.' iiIV ! W reive a number about every mo 'Is. What's the cause? U"e regulailv tcreive the Palladium of Liwiencehin i:h. and why not the 'Times,' whiclf is printed in the same county, equally favored with mail facilities? The Times is a paper we are always anxious to receive, and we are unwilling to do without it. Canyon explain, friend Glenn? Do vou regnlaily mail a paper for the Patriot f Thcnbove paragraph is from the Pcoh Tatnot, of the 9th instant. We have regularly mailed our paper for the Patriot, with the exception of two succeeding weeks in last month, when we run shcrt of papers, and were obliged to cut ofl all oi;r exchar.ges. We cannot see why our paper does not regularly arrive at Paoli, unless it is that some Post Master thinks he has a better riuht to the Times than Mr. Green. We might ask the same questions in regard to the Patriot, for we do not receive it regularly by any means. The Lditor of the Patriot is under a mistake in supposing our town and Lawronccbiirgh uequally favored with mail facilities.'" We have four mails per week, w hile Lawrenccburgh has sixteen.' Lawrencelmrgh is a darling pel she can have any thing she asks for, while IUing Sun, a place of as i.aich importance, enterprise ana t"s;;ie5s, must, with cverj other portion of the county, "go a begging."

GOThc Farmers, Mechanics, and other citizens of Randolph township, favorable to (he formation of an Agricultural Society, in said township, are requested to meet at the Presbyterian church, in Rising Sun, on Saturday next, the tGtli inst. to consider the pro priety of forming such a society. MANY FARMERS. American Silk. The statement in a discourse recently delivered before the American Institute, that "there were annually consumed in the U. S. more silk than all the wheat, corn, rye, oats, flaxseed, buiscuit, potatoes and hops which are exported will pay for, by nearly two millions of dollars," proves, if true, the necessity of lh people of this country going at once into ths manufacture of domestic silk. What reason is there why we should no' be too proud to be dependent upon the loom o I Lyons and of China? We our selves should become the supnln is ol their market, instead of the roii"umor c:.M : . ...i j ? r i ouk, u may oe sain, is oi sucii eas pro duce from the tree and worm, as t amount to a self-fabricating: process. P.mhan's .lav. A TOHNAIW. On Sunday night last, we were visit ed by a violent and destructive storm. A current of wind, about the fourth of a mile in width, passed the southern border ofthis village, without, however, doing material damage here. About a mile cast of us it seems to have in creased in violence, taking the roof off and otherwise injuring Mr. Birbers barn, removing his fencing, and pros trating much valuable timber. 1 he farms of Mr. Cook, !lrs. McDaniel, and others, in the rariire of the tornado. were much damaged. Mr. Cook's dwelling hou?e, a two story brick, was almost entirely demolished, and what is most singular, and most fortunate too. is the fact, that although there were several persons in the house at the the time, no lives were lost, and but one individual injured.
