OURSELVES AND PATRONS.
This number Of paper commences the
eighth volume Of the Palladium, and the second
under the superintcndence Of the present pro2r'-
etors Its readers now appreciate our labors
of the past year, and it for them to pass judg
ment, tor o gainst US Be their verdict what AZ
NAV, we shall at least claim the credit Of honest
ly and consistently advocating the principles We
have professcd, to the best of our ability. IT.
proscrip,ive withdrawal of support. with which
some Of opponents have visited as, we esteem
light feather in the opposing scale to Pr'nc'-
pie and duty. As mark Of disapprobat'on to
our political tcnets, arising from honest difference
of opinion, we can tolerate it; as a chastisemens,
We despise it, On the other hand, we have been
cheered by the prompt aid and countcnance OF
many friends, to whom take this opportunity
Of returning our heartfelt Acknowledgements
Another class Of rell-,rishcrs would now ad-
dress You like to hear the ncws--you approve
Of our course-admi, the Palladium to be good
paper-dog cheap at two dolars-contams
great quantity Of interesting mattcr-we'l Sc
lcctcd, and highly interesting-yct--~hy mol
take itg Aye, and pay for it! lis but tr'fe,
which any man can alDhrd, and for what can two
dollars be better laid out for family than news
paper? But wo viii not waste words IN arguing
a selfevident proposition; we would DC mutual
gamers by the contract.
Tie opening ysde promises to be ono OF unusu-
al importance in the political history OF our co"n-
try. Our friendly relations with neighboring
powers are in jeopardy and indeed extremely pre-
carious. The apprehension Of local, intcrna: di-
visions. which, in the good old times of the "Fa-
~ n
r;,eoe to name, is NV becoming ''familiar as our
household gods,'' and the parental warnings OF
that sain,ed patriot arc lost in tho scramble for
power and the false pretc nsions ofSmoitt US oc"
aeogues. His predictions on this state OF our
vet free country, may Heaven avert!
To give the public early and correct 'ntel1-
peucc of passing events; to watch with vig'-
liant eve the actions Of public fuuctionaries,
aud to proclaim the approach Of danger TO our IN
stitu,;ons =: .:..;cvcr shape, is the peculiar prov
;oce of the guardians Of the public press In fu'-
s;,;nc these duties, we hope TO be found ever at
on, most. with a firm determination "to cry aloud
and spare not "wing to praise but not afraid to
blame"
