"rpHE S-TATESMAN."
JR "The three great ends which a statesman ought to pro-
pose to himself in the government of a nation are—security to pos-
sessors; facility to acquirers; and hope to all."—Coleridge.
On the 10th of October will be published, No. I. of" The States-
man," a First-class Weekly Newspaper. Price sd. Unstamped, Gd.
Stamped.

The parameunt object of `I The Statesman" will be to promote the
interest of the entire nation, irrespective of party or personal consi-
derations. In Home Politics " The Statesman" will support those
principles of our constitution which have been established by the
will and reason of the English people, and will urge -he extension of
political rower In correspondence with the increasing intelligence of
the community. In accordance with these principle+, " The States-
man" will seek to correct the abuses and amend the defects of the
representative system; it will support all measures for eompletinr
the great work of commercial reform; it will aid in develmit g the
municipal power of local bodies, with a view to a more faithful and
vigilant administration of local affairs, and a more prompt execution
of the measures required for promoting health and general well-
being.
The subject of Education is one which now occupies the most
anxious thoughts of all earnest thinkers. '• The Statesman" will
endeavour to obtain the cordial co-operation of all those practical
reformers to whom the public good is the supreme consideration.
In pursuing this object, it will not confine itself metely to a discus-
sion of the various schemes which have been proposed for the educa-
tion of the labouring classes. The worst evils under which the
nation is new suffering, spring mainly from the want of such a
syste.m of education among the middle and higher classes as would.
teach them- to be more earnest in the fulfilment of their duties.
Without a reform in that direction we cannot expect much improve-,
meet in the government of the nation from any system if education.
for the poorer class.
The principles of our own Constittition will be the guide in Foreign
Policy, with a view to render it just, bold, as d uncompromisirg.,
"The Statesman" will act with those politicians who seek to aid
and animate the Government in giving its cordial co-operation to,
foreign states struggling to develope a freedom cognate with our own
—a policy of alliance with constitutional governments In ming the
only true and practical counteracting force to the dynastic combina-
tions now threatened in Europe .

As regards India, wide diversities of opinion prevail. " The
Statesman" will endeavour to show that the time has come for
organizing the Government of that vast empire in a manner alike
consistent wish the dictates of Christianity, the w. Ware of India,
and the true interests of Great Britain. Party Politicians and Anti-
National Journalists may try to show that, in India, these objects
are irreeenclieable. " The Statesman" will seek to mite those
patriots who believe that the national conacienee,and an enlightened
retrat d for the national weal, equally demand that our Eastern
Empire shall' no longer be governed by the shortsighted policy of
I.eadenball-street.

The s'artling events ofthela,t few years, no less than the present
aspect of affairs, have taught politicians that the efficiency of the
army is one of the first elements of national independence and na-
tional strength. "Tire qtatesman ' will give its hearty supper t to
the various measures required to make the army, in the largest
sense of the w^rd, efficient, and accessible to all ranks of her Ma-
jesty's subjects.

In
the 'Literary portion of the raper the main object will be to
give the readers of "The Statesman" full. and accurate information
as to what is going forward in the various departments of the Book-
world.

E,' IC TETII , fixed without springs, wires, or ligatures. They so
purectly resemble the natural teeth as not-to be distinguished from
he original by t 1 closest observer; they will never change colour or
decay, and will be found very superior to any teeth ever before used.
Tnis method does not require the extraction of roots, or any painful
o eration, and will support and preserve teeth that are loose, and is
guaranteed to restore articulation and mastication; and that Mr.
lioward's improvement may be within the reach of the most econo-
