The Madisonian. [volume] (Washington City [i.e. Washington, D.C.]) 1837-1845, 1838-03-08

HI For publishing Daily Morning Journal IN New
York city, under the title Of the NEW YORK TIMES
devoted to Politics, News, and Commercial Inelli-
gence.
The well known fact that the Republicans Of this city
are destitute OF an organ TO promugate their opinions,
and advocate their principles in connection with the De-
mocratic Press Of the INTERIOR has been subject OF
itcrated complaint and regret Circumstances Of "a
yorabe conspirng measures have been adopted
to commence the publication Of the Times and Com
mereal iaieitgsneer upon footing calculated TO
sure its independence and permaneney.
The political character OF the Times and Commercial
Iielgencer will be strictly Democratic Republican 1t
viii adhere to the principles Of the party which brought
into existence and sustained the late administration II
will labor to define the ancient and Marks and main
tam their prime vgor the ancient usages Of the party
which. whilst they observed rendered il nyinci-
Bile, and secured simple aud constitutional adminstra-
ton OF public affairs at the time that they pro-
NOTED IN the highest degree the undivided welfare aud
happiness OF the people.
In marking out this line which both duty and incli-
nation will prompt us pursue desire to be under
stood as conceiyng that certain and points Of
policy entertained by portion Of the friends OF the
present general administration form part OF the Re-
publican creed Of binding influence, but q,es-
tons Of expectancy rest upon debateabe ground, and
may be opposed according to the dictates OF conscience
and Judgment This paper will therefore be found in
opposition 10 the RRried erpedients OF the day The
country needs epose from the agtatons demagogues
and empires 1t is time that period Of depression
exampled IN It's DURATION and in its disastrous
quences should give way to the return of confidence
and the resumption of the ordinary pursuits trade and
industry II the measures OF the government shall be
found at variance with the suggestions Of sound policy,
or are brought into collision with public sentiment, every
consideration for the public good cries aloud for their
abandonment. To convince rulers, that they mis-
take, IN some sense, the indications OF the public will
and 10 embody the scattered of that will in
sible and tangible form, will be deemed TO come within
the legitimate province OF our Journal and to compose
prominent objects IN the prosecution OF design, of
great Importance and interest to every class Of the com
munIty.
We cannot resist the conviction that the Republican
party OF this State has been placed towards its oppo-
nents in false positiona position which exposes to
eminent hazards, which is daily and hourly weakening
its energies, and which in its threatened prostraton
surrounds country with the dangers APP
pretended from the ascendency OF federal mlsrule
When we contemplate the havoc which has been made
with the Republican egions the short space Of eight
ten months and weigh the certain indications Of Re-
evolutionary movements in public sentiment, in states
where elections are pending, we cannot regard 1t as
either SAFE Just honorable deyiate further from
the republican track marked by the footsteps Of
those distinguished Presidents who have in times past
secured the trumphs OF Democracy, feel impeed TO
reject the Councils which bring nothing but defeat
and humiliation The Times and Commercial Inieii-
genccr will therefore endeavcr expunge the hereses
which have been interpoated into creed, and to
rectify the into which they had betrayed our
friends. To the genuine cause Of Democracy we are
sincerely welded, and there is power, whilst it
mains pure that CAN divorce our affections or lervor
from IT, But om the spurious faith OF the Loco Focos
and desirucves sought to be engrafed upon prn-
clpes, and to be substituted in embraces turn
with adherence and disgust. The Tunes and Com
mcrcial IactgeReer will labor to restore the Democra
cy again to its former vantage ground--o re-organ7e
its broken and dspiritcd egonsto rebuild its crumb
ling temples, and re-estabsh its ancient ordinances
and to behold it again hourishing and predominant re-
fecng the moral influence of this great republic abroad
aud protecting the interests OF its numerous people at
home We shall rejoice to be permitted TO contribute
our efforts to this consummation II our abors shall
prove frutess admontons shall not be wanting
We will make one more attempt to put the good snip
before the wind, and to save her gallant crew and pre-
cons freight. If afterwards the madness OF the few
shall dsappont the hopes Of the many and the voice of
destiny shall proclaim that ROME MUST FALL, hcauea
and Garth shall 'ritness that arc are innocent"

lutons and address adopted that OCCASION will be
