TO counteract evil influence arising from whatever
cause the public press has been found at all tines
since the glorious era Of its discovery, an efficient
agent Its influence goes forth upon the four winds Of
heaven, and its high voice is heard in the four quar-
tiers of the earth. Its eoquence rings in the congre-
gated councils of nations, and it speaks as Prophet
and Preacher, to the oppressed of all chimes. Its
influence is felt in proportion the cause it adyo,
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 o1gan.
The times are rife for our purpose. The system
with England to food this country has proved Of adj
vantage to her taxed landholders-her impoverished
Parishes-to her goveInment-her aristocracy and
her king Her ministry have determined TO eradicate
an evil, not by the enactment of sautary law but
by the preparation Of an outrage and 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 emgraton and to se.
themselves against the chances of plague, the
filthy victims of the wrath Of hcaven will be shipped
70 our hospitable shores.
To help to stay this Decorating tide, will be our
high and chiees aim, and appeal to the well ludg-
ing of all parties, aid in the undertaking. In this
cause we recognise no minor creed. We look not at
the mansion Of our President, with an ambition to
place any particular individual there; but our eyes
will be kept steadfast to the rock Of American prnc-
pies. We will see nothing but the banner Of our ma
tive land, streaming over the extreme confines Of our
country, and to our will come 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 our own Indigenous iterature and while we
are willing and ready 70 pay the highest tribute Of
merited respect to the literature Of other lands, we
will do it at the expense Of native, whose works
are not read because he has not the stamp Of Muir
ray on his title page, or the appreciation Of Black
wood on the outside cover of his volume. We will
not carry the war Of principles against the shrnes
Of genius-ihey are sacred, most peculiarly to our
heart, and above the changing phases Of the po-
llcal dramas.
Domestic and current intelligence shall be regular
ly given, in short and agreeable manner.
The proceedings Of Congress will be condensed,
and sketches Of speeches and speakers given during
the session with lively outline Of as they trans
pire at the Seat Of Government In no instance will
party politics be allowed to bias the editorial pen But
men will be treated with mpartialty, and opinion
with the utmost and most delicate respect.
