The well known fact that the Republicans Of this ciry
are destitute Of organ 10 poIpugste their Opinions,
aud advocate their principles 10 connection WIN me De-
nocraiic Press Of the Interior has been subject Of re-
iersied complaint aud regret. Circumstances o. la

TO commence the publication Of the Iimssagd Com
merc,ai iHfeigs1cer upon footing calculated TO en-
sure in Independence ard pernsneney, tt
The political character Of the Times and Cemmsreia
ntciQencer will be strictly DemocYanc Republican IL
will adhere TO the principles Of The party which brought
into existence and sustained the late administration IL
will labor TO define the ancient land marks. and 70 main
tain their prime yigor the ancient usages oil The party
which whilst tIoy observed rendered i inyinci-
ble and SECURED simple and constitutional adninlstra-
ton OF public affairs 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 topursue desire TO be under
stood concesing that certain measures and points Of
policy entertained by portion OF the friends oi the
present general administration, form part OF the Re-
publican creed VI binding influence but as mere ques-
lions Of expectancy rest upon debateable ground and
may be opposed according the dictates OF consc nee
and Judgment This paper viii therefore be found IN
opposition the .untrisd erpedients Of the day. The
country needs repose from the agitaons or denagogues
aud empires Iii time that period Of depression UNI
examped its duration, and IN its disastrous conse-
qnences should give way TO the return Of confidence
and the resumption Of the ordinary pursuits OF trade and
industry II the measures Of the government shall be
found al variance with the suggestions OF sound policy
brought into collision with public sentiment ever,
consideration for the public good cries aloud Tor their
abandonment To convince our rulers, that they mis-
take In some sense the indications Of the public will
and 10 embody the scattered rays Of that will m sen
sble and tangible FORM will be deemed to come within
the legitimate province OF our Journal, and 70 compose
prominent objects the prosecution Of our design OF
great importance and interest to every class oil the COM

We cannot resist the conviction that the Republican
party Of this State has been placed towards It's oppo
nens 10 false positions position which exposes 70
eminent hazards. which 70 daily and hourly weakening
its energies, and which, in its threatened prostraon
surrounds our country with the worst dangers ever APP
pretended from the ascendency OF federal misrue.
When we contemplate the havoc which has been made
with the Republican legons in the short space OF eight
or ten MONTHS and weigh the certain indications OF Re-
yolutonary movements in public sentiment, in states
where elections pending. we cannot regard 7 as
either SAFE Just or honorable deviate further from
the republican track marked by the footsteps Of
those distinguished Presidents who have in times past
secured the trumphs Of Democracy feel impelled 70
reject the Councils which bring nothing but defeat
and humiliation. The Times aud Commercial Intsti-
Qenesr will therefore endesvcr 10 expunge tho hesesies
which have been interpolsted into our creed ana 70
rectify the errors into which they had betrayed our
friends To the genuine Of Democracy we are
siucerey welded and there is no power whilst it re-
mains pure, that divorce our affections or iervor
from IT, But from the spurious faith oil the Loco-focos
and destctives sought TO be engrafted upon our prn
cples and be substituted in our embraces we turn
with adherence and disgust. The Times and Com
snerciaI Iaiegcnecr will labor to restore the Democra-
cy again to its former vantage ground-to re-organue
its broken and dispned legionsto rebuild its crumb-
ling temples and re-es,ablish its ancient ordinances
and to behold it again aourshng and predominant re-
fleeing the moral influence Of this great republic abroad,
aud protecting the interests Of its numerous people at
home. We shall rejoice to be permitted 70 contribute
our efforts to this contamination. If our labors shall
prove fruess our admonitions shall not be wanting.
We will make ono attempt TO put the good ship
before the wind and her gallant crew and pre-
cious freight II afterwards the madness Of the few
dissppont the hopes Of the many and the voice OF
destiny shall proclaim that % RoME pALL heapen
