emigzants IL nonsense to talk OF their innate love
OF the "democratic principle" they are nothing moro
nor less than the materials with which factious leaders
IN England had determined to uproot society; over
throw peace and government; track the land with
hef ploody footsteps, and polute every consecrated
avehue' leading TO the edce Of the British laws In
uture numbers OF this paper it will be the duty Of its
70 substantiae these charges by proofs de-
rived irom English writer's, and explain the anomaly
Of civilized country 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 great political storm, branded bv the
good and patriotic, destitute Of principle anxious for
power as the Of wealth, regardless OF the tics
OF civil restraint, reared in the Lazarhouses of over
taxed and discontened parishes, hated and dees-
ed from their youth to their maturity, these vast
hordes of modern Huns place their feet upon our SOIL
ignorant Of our customs-regardess Of our laws, and
careless Of those great uniting qualities that bind uss
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 Of its discovery, an efficient
agent Its Influence goes forth upon the four winds o.
heaven and its high voice is heard in the four quar-
gated councils of nations, and it speaks as Prophet
and Preacher, to the oppressed Of all clnes. It's
influence is felt in proportion 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,
shonld be supported and made manifest through this
great organ.
The times are rife for our purpose. The system
with England food this country, has proved Of adj
vantage to her taxed andholders---her impoverished
Parishes-to her government---her a4istocracy, and
her king Her ministry have determined to eradicate
an evil, not by the enactment of saIutary law but
by the perpetation cf 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 emigration, and to Sc
cure themselves agains. the chances Of plague the
filthy victims Of The wrath Of heaven, will be shipped
to our hosptable shores.
TO help to stay this desecrating tide, will be our
high and chieest aim, and we appeal to the well udg-
ing of all parties to 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 the rock Of American prnci-
pies. We will see nothing bu, The banner Of our ma
1--WE ldnu, over tne extreme COnnneS OF
country, and to our ears 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 indigenous literature; and while we
are willing and ready to pay the highest tribate of
merited respect to the literature OF other lands we
will not do it at the expense Of native, whose works
not read, because he has the stamp of Muir
ray on his title page, the appreciation Of Black
wood on the outside Of his volume. We will
not carry the Of principles against the shrines
of geniusthey are sacred. most peculiarly so to our
heart and are above the changing phases Of the po-
litca 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 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 mpartialily, and opinion
with the utmost and most delicate respect.
