Chief Magistrate of the nation shall proye true
to the principles OF those Apostles of Democracy
to the doctrines contained N his inaugural ad-
dress--and 20 the aentiments expressed IN all
other documents which have yet appeared bear

mighty struggle to gain the ascendency, and IN
their destructive march are trying 10 ride rough.
shod over the heads of government, regardless OF
the means they use TO gain their unhallowed
ends. We shall ever be on the alert to detect
| and expose their covert designs, and shall oppose
the new-iangled doctrines OF the opposition IN
every shape in which they may make their ad-
vances.
We are opposed TO either National or
| Treasury Bank, and concur in the recommended
ton of President Van Buren in his Message to
the called session Of Congress, for separation OF
the government from all banking institutions
MISUNDERSTANDING that the collection, safe
keeping, and disbursement of the revenue can be
safely done in the constitutional currency thro'
government officers appointed for the purpose.
In short, we shall exert all our energies to ad-
vance the democratic cause, the peculiar tenets
of which are too well known to require repeti-
ton it is opposed to every Infringement upon
equal rights---to partial legislaton-to all cor
porations, monopolies, and monied institutions
allied to the aristocracy of wealth IN opposition
to the democracy of numbers, and having in
their nature tendency to make the rich richer
and the poor poorer.
The contracted and narrow-minded policy
which looks with envy on the prosperity OF every
thing beyond its immediate neighborhood we
cannot recognise. Although Noxubee and the
new counties will receive our more particular
attention, an eye will be had to the welfare of
the whole State.
Aside from politics, the TIMES shall contain
such variety of local and foreign news, com
mercial and itery intelligence, humorous mis-
cellany, anecdotes, &c, as cannot fail to make
it an interesting journal to ALL Newspapers will
be received from every State in the Union, and
from all the principle cities-which, with other
facilities for the earliest and best variety of news
will enable us to lay before our subscribers one
of the most valuable weekly sheets issued from
the southern press. Agriculture will receive par
ticular attention; the state of the Cotton mar
ket, and all items of intelligence that may prove
acceptable to the planter shall be diligently gath
cred for his use.
Democrats of Norubee; You are now called

as yet made but feeble effort to establish press
the mightiest acquisition to any cause--while
that of your opponents is teeming with and
sending abroad in every direction its base fabri
cations, deceiyjng and corrupting the people,
Andlwill you stand coldly by without one effort
to counteract its influence? Can you see our re-
publican government sneered at, nsulted, and its
institutions trampled upon, without the spirit to
resent Now is the time to establish Mississippi
in the grounds she has taken, and make her per-
manently a democratic State But this cannot
be done without exerton Come forward then,
one and all--and not only come yourselves, but
bring the names of your friends along with you
to be enrolled among the list of subscribers; and
as you prize the success of the holy cause in
which you are engaged, let the efforts which
you may now make to establish at your county
seat democratic press bear testimony. With
these remarks on the necessity of your prompt
support to insure success, the publisher dsmIsses
the subject, and rests for time to prove who are
and who are not the real friends of democracy
and equal rights.
