PROPOSALS
For publishing aweekly paper in steubenville, O.

STEUBENNILLE CHRONICLE,

aWeNhl( paper IN ~.

STEUBENVILLE CHRONICLE,
ASD LITERARY GAZETTE.
The Publishers are Impressed with the
behei, that a neutral paper, as regards pc
hiical parties, will meet with public pa
tFonage. The abuses Of the Press, grow
ng out OF party excitements, have been
80 common, and so evil 10 their conse
quenees OF late years, thatevery rejecting
man must heartily wish 10 see 1t assume
another tone and character. AT such times
nothing too sacred escapes the calumny
OF vocal pens, If party purposes can be
subseryed; and dlspssslonate judments
give place to the ebullitions OF vindlctive
malice and yituperstiye ialsehoods. Surely
such thin.s should not be tolerated by in
ielhgent aud moral people.
The publishers mark out the course Of
the CHRoSIcLE, as an independent pa
pef: They profess 10 be the friends OF our
republican institutions, and not the advo.
Gates OF any particular man or set OF men.
lhey VIII therefore express frankly and
deliberately, their views Of men and mea-
snres, no matter TO what party they be
long, or from whom they originate. For
The same reason, opposite opinions, free
from improper language and personal re
marks, wiil find admission into the colums

which the authority of our laws ia sustained, not by
severe penal enactments, but by the regular organ
ization of civilized society, and the ordinary vg
lance, prudence and patriotism of our citizens, who
are settling in great numbers the unoocupied
lands and preparing to transform the wilderness into
"a garden. The rights of the state have been triumph
antly sustained and the fruition of them is now
realized by her children. As neither the honor nor
the interest of the state requires continuance of the
punishment inflicted on the missionaries, We presume
they will be treated with the forbearance and mild
ness which become the character of humane gen.
erous and magnanimous people. 1t is but justice to
them to state that during their imprisonment, they
have yielded prompt, and cheerful, and exemplary
obedience to all of the regulations of the peni-
Tertiary.

SUPREME COURT.

We understand an application has been made to
the Judges of the Supreme Court, by gentlemen Of
the Bar, to allow the decisions of the court in the
several determined at the present term, to be
published in the public prints The request seems
to be very proper one, and if it be granted as it
doubtless will we shall avail ourselves of the earliest
opportunity to lay the opinions of the court before
readers. Several Of much interest not only
to lawyers but to the general reader also, have been
disposed of at the present term and in the absence Of
official reports, it is presumed newspaper account
of them will be acceptable.
~ Since the above was put in type, we under
stand that order to publish the decisions of the
supreme court for the two last terms has been grant
ed. We shall commence publishing them within 3
or weeks from this time; those who wish to obtain
the decisions entire, will avail themselves of the pres
ent opportunity by sending their names subscribers
to the Wing, soon.

she may now exercise her clemency, without an

MULTIPLICATION SUSPENDED.

A meeting of the State rights and free trade party
was held at Charestown, the 2lst. ult, soon after
1fhe reception Of the late message at which, say the
accounts, it is conectured that at least three thou
sand persons must have given attendance. Hon. c.
c. Pinckney, Lieutenant Governor, was called to
the chair and A. H. Brown appointed secretary; at
ter which a series of resolutions, preceded by
qua,tn su6icit of "whereas' aimed directly at the
message, were proposed by Judge Colcock, and car
RED by acclamation the following seems to be the
most important.
Resoltcd, That although we have felt it to be a
sacred duty to manifest these determinations and to
express these sentiments, have nevertheless seen
with lively satisfaction not only the indications of
beneficial modification of the Tariff but the express
sion of sentiments in 10Th branches of Congress as
well as in other quarters suspicious to the peace ana
harmony of the Union, and that these indications
shall be met BY corresponding dispositions on our
partt is hereby declared that it the of this
meeting that pending the process of the measures
here alluded to, all occasion of collision between the
Federal and State authorities should be sedulously
avoided on both sides in the hope that the painful
controversy in which South Carolina is engaged,
may be thereby satisfactorily adjusted, and the Un
ion of these States, established on founda-
ton.
The resolutions proposed were seconded by Ex- Gov
amor Hamilton, who was frequently interrupted in
the course of his remarks by loud bursts OF ap-
plause He approved decidedly, he said, of the reso
button recommending that we should avoid all con-
fict with the federal government, while the question
of modification of the Tariff was under discussion
in Congress: he had himself ordered shipment Of
sugar from Havana, but he would suffer it to remain
in the custom house stores and wait events: he would
avoid unnecessary collision, but, if hopes Of salts
factory adjustment of the question were disappont
ed, he knew his fellow citizens would 60 euen to
death NTH hin, for his SUGAR!
A resolution like the above, sent out with the
appreciation and sanction of the ex-governor of the
aultifers himself who to have the power
of assembling and dispensing the chioalry of the
South at will may safely be taken in some degree
authoritative and may too have the effect to suspend
the euH day till the 4th of March,
