emgrants. Il Is nonsense to talk of their innate Iove
Of the democratic principles" they are nothing
nor less than the materials with which facous leaders
in England had determined to uproot society; over
throw peace and government; track the land with
their bloody footsteps and pollute every consecated
avenue, leading to the edifce of the British laws. In
future numbers of this paper it will be the duty Of it's
conductor to substanate these charges by proofs de-
rived from English writer's, and explain the anomaly
Of civilized county deluging land with which it
is at peace by treaty and interest," with the most terri
BILE means of legal and political destruction.
Leaving their own land trembling with the electric
elements of a great political storm, branded by the
good and patriotic destitute of principle, anxious for
power as the means of wealth. regardless of the ties
Of civil restraint, reared in the Lazarhouses of
taxed and disconented parishes, hated and detest-
ed from their youth to their maturity, these vast
hordes of modern HUNS place their feet upon soilr
ignorant of customs--regardess of our laws, and
careless of those great uniting qualities that bind us
together united and happy people.
To counteract evil influence arising from whatever
cause, the public press has been found at all tmes
since the glorious era of its discovery, an efficient
agent It's influence goes forth upon the four winds Of
heaven, and its high voice is heard in the four qu,r-
gated councils Of nations and it speaks as Prophet
and Preacher, to the oppressed Of all clmes. It's
influence is felt in proportion to the cause it advo-
Gates. All times have tested its power-all causes
have acknowledged its aid, and it is now proposed,
that the cause Of our country and our countrymen,
should be supported and made manifest through this
great organ. T4
The times are rife for our purpose. The system
with England to food this country has proved Of ad-
vantage to her taxed landholders--her impoverished
parshes--to her government-her aristocracy, and
her king. Her ministry have determined to eradicate
an evil, not by the enactment of salutary law, but
by the Perpetraton Of an outrage and an injury. The
other nations of Europe and the Eastern World, will,
and are following her example India and China will
doubtless take the epidemic of emigration, and to se-
cure themselves against the chances Of plague the
filthy victims Of the wrath Of heaven, will be shipped
to our hospitable shores. aG fa7Ha3
To help to stay this desecrating tide, will be our
high and chefest aim and we appeal to the well Judg
ing of all parties, to aid in the undertaking. In this
recognise minor creed We look not at
the mansion of our President, with an ambition to
place any particular individual there; but eyes
will be kept steadfast to the rock Of American prnci-
pies. We will see nothing but the banner of our ma
tive land, streaming the extreme confines Of
country, and to our will no other prayer,
than the true American worship, around the altar Of
American liberty.
The minor objects of the paper will be the advance
ment of own Indigenous literature; and while we
willing and ready to pay the highest tribute of
merted respect to the literature Of other lands, we
will not do it at the expense of native whose works
not read, because he has not the stamp of Muir

not carry the Of principles against the shrines
of genius-hey sacred, most peculiarly to our
heart, and above the changing phases of the po-
litical dramas.
