PROSPECTUS.

In offering to the attention of the Inhabitants of Worcestershire
a new Weekly Paper, entirely devoted to the County, it is incum-
bent upon us shortly to state the necessity from
.which the under-
taking originates, the advantages which will attend its adoption, and
the political principles upon which it will be conducted.
It is useless now to discuss the question whether the purpose of
a Provincial Paper is best answered by engaging in the wide field
of political discussion, or by confining itself more particularly to local
intelligence and the current news of the day ; sufficient is it to re-
mark that of the four papers at present published in this county,
three are distinctly Tory, and the fourth abstains from taking any
decided part.
With a view of laying before the public the great truths of poli-
tical and social science, our present undertaking has arisen ; and
while it shall be our anxious endeavour properly to direct the minds
of our readers, our strenuous exertions shall be applied to impress
upon them the paramount importance of maintaining those liberal
principles which we hold essential to public prosperity, conducive
to individual happiness, and consonant with the better feelings and
nobler faculties of man.

With principles alone, it is cur intention to deal. If any ore
looks forward to the existence of the Worcestershire Chronicle as a
convenient medium for personal invective or party calumny, he
will be disappointed: if any man imagines that it is established in
mere hostile opposition to any of the existing county papers, he is
mistaken: if any one believes that it owes its origin to the excited
feelings of any single class of liberal politicians, he is deceived : for
it is set on foot by the united exertions of County and City Re-
formers of all grades, and it looks forward to the attainment of an
end far higher than the gratification to be obtained from personal
invective, party calumny, or editorial victory.
The Chronicle will sift the nature of each political question, as it
presents itself to public notiee; it will lay bare the arguments on
which it rests, and expose their fallacies, if any there be. Our
object is to lead our fellow-county-men to come to conclusions and
to form their judgments, not from one-sided views alone, but from a
minute examination of the subject-matter in all its bearings.
Yet, with the very best intentions, with all the caution it is pos-
sible to unite to that openness of conduct which at all times shall
mark our course, how arduous the undertaking ! how difficult the
management of a County Liberal Paper !
We cannot, like the Tory editor, address any well-compacted body
of men. We cannot, like him, guide ourselves by narrow party
views ; for " THE PEOPLE" constitute our party, and within
the range of our political horizon are Liberals of every shade :
there, is the man whose principles, are based on truth and justice,
on the full enjoyment to all men of civil and religious liberty ;
there also is he, whom prejudices (imbibed perhaps during a faulty
system of public education) prevent from acting up to the full ex-
tent of such principles ; and there also may be found the man who,
through timidity, often confines himself within still narrower
bounds.

To all, we say, judge us not by any single act—but take us as a
whole. If, for instance, we show ourselves favourable to " The
Ballot," and there are those, among our readers, who are not yet
convinced of the necessity for its adoption, let them not withhold
from us their support, on such grounds alone, but let them bear in
mind the many points en which we do agree with them, and let them
listen to our arguments in favour of the measure.

Let none c,riTsider us unconstitutional, or anxious to subvert the
existing order of things, because we maintain that the constitution
was made for the people, rather than thepeople for the constitution.
Our object is to repair, not to destroy; to improve, and not to
injure. We deprecate all changes proposed for the mere sake of
change.
While our columns are open for the insertion of communications
from the professors of all religious tenets, we shall ourselves ab-
stain from advocating the doctrines of any particular sect.
Upon all occasions we shall be found zealous promoters of moral
order and social tranquillity : convinced that these are the cherished
objects of every constitutional reformer.
To the Agriculturist and Trader we shall afford the earliest in-
formation of fairs and markets, and of all that may be considered in-
teresting to them. The lover of literature, also, will find us an-
nouncing the appearance of the most recent Works, and directing
his attention to the first publications of the day.
Applications for Shares to be addressed to Mr. Elgie, Solicitor,
48, Broad-street, Worcester : to whom also all communications are
to be made.

THE PERSIAN STANDARD:
OR, THE RISING SUN

Of all the Arms which heralds have decreed
To gallant, noble, or heroic deed,
From earliest ages to the present day,
The glorious Arms of Persia bear the sway
A Lion couchant, all its battles won,
Watehing, With furious eyes, a rising sun.
If heralds should hereafter, or should princes,
(When heralds and their masters have their senses)
Be actuated to establish worth,
And make their actions known through all the earth ;
Sure, Warr is, and his Blacking, now should stand
As great in heraldry as in the :strand.
Hear, then, a fact :—when Bonaparte had plac'd
Ambitious wishes on the British East,
- Russia (then his ally) 'gainst Persia fought,
And gain'd advantages, though dearly bough
A troop of partisans, by 1' rsia paid,
With British Officers of various grade,
Approach'd the Russians, who began to brag,
Seeing the partisans without a flag;
But this neglect, it very soon appear'd,
alight, by a little genius, be repined.
A Bufflo's hide was soon depriv'd of hair,
And, ti an English Sub rais'd In the air,
With War en's Blackine, beautifully brght,
They, wi h this standard, march'd as soon as light;
The Russians the attack had scarce begun,
When Warren's Blacking show's! the rising sun
The Russians cried, the Persian flag !" then fled
Leaving, in their retreat, some thousands dead!
This Easy-shining and Brilliant Blacking prepared by BOBER 1'
WAR ItEN, 37, Strand, London; and sold in every Town in ke United
Kingdom.
Liquid, in Bottles, and Paste Blacking, in Pots, at Cd., 12d., and ]Ad. each.
