Another Change.--The Farmerville Enquirer, has had its day and is now "dead," so to speak literally.-- The types, press, brass rule quads quoins etc, have been taken down to Monroe, La., where Mr. A. R. Craig has started a new paper called the "Union," with that popular motto, "the Constitution and the Union."-- The first number of the paper is on our table and it looks well--not only in its appointments of "dress" but in the spirit of its life. It wears a jewel in its head, in presenting us the name of the American (as well in nature as in name) candidate for the Presidency Success attend the Union, not only for the editor's sake but for that of "the Union." We are pleased to take Mr. Craig by the fist as one of the heirs of the fourth estate and a member of the press-gang in good standing.
