By request we announce that Mr. Josephus DANIELS, of the Wilson Advance, will commence next week a paper in Kinston to be called the Kinston Free Press.
We take pleasure in saying to Mr. DANIELS that he will find the people of Kinston and of Lenoir county kind, courteous and appreciative of his efforts in commencing a paper in their midst; and we take equal pleasure in saying to the people of our native town and county that from our acquaintance with Mr. DANIELS we feel satisfied that they will find him in every respect worthy of their esteem and regard.
