"THE NORTH LOUISIANAIAN." - Such is the name of a new paper just started at the 
beautiful little town of Vienna, in our neighboring parish Jackson, and which is 
issued under the auspices of our ancient journalistic chum, W. Stran Custis, Esq., 
for many years the editor and proprietor of the Claiborne "Advocate". Feeling an 
interest in everything that belongs to old Jackson, aside from our very high regard 
for friend Custis, personally, we take pleasure in welcoming the new-comer to our 
table and wishing it the highest degree of success known to country newspapers. We 
are glad to see the Police Jury of that parish recognize the value of a parish 
paper by having its proceedings published in the "Louisianian". We shall regard 
with peculiar pleasure the weekly arrivals of our Jackson contemporary, hailing as it 
does from the midst of a people whom we love and amongst whom we were reared - whom 
we battled for in times past and some of whom battled us, especially when we fought 
single-handed the war for Douglas against Breckinridge - for nationality and peace 
as opposed to sectionalism and war.
