FOR PUBLISHING In THE
TOWN OF LEXINGTON
\ WEEKLY PAPER TO
BE CALLED THE
Lexington Union.
BELIEVING that the publicatlc

BELIEVING that the publication
of a weekly newspaper in our town would
add TO its Importance abroad, and be OF
great interest TO the citizens of this
portion olthe state as vehicle Of gen.
eral intelligence, and induced by the So
lcitation of friends, aside from political
prediction, we have determined to enter
upon the task; aware at the same time OF
our inability, but confident that we will
be sustained in our effort by an enlighten-
ed and generous community.
The Lexington Union will sustain the
old Republican doctrines Of the Jeflerso-
MAN school, convinced that a strict obser-
vance OF these principles will effect the
greatest good for the greatest number, the
end and aim Of all good government. In
our support however Of tho Democracy Of
the uoion, we shall sedlously avoid all
party asperity or political ylrulence, yet
though fully, firmly adhere to the Admin
istratlon of the general government, as
being the instrument to protect and ad-
vance those true republican measures
which we advocate, and which will ensure
the end intended by the trainers Of our
federal Charter.
As the Lexington Union will be gov
erncd by that amendment to the Constitu-
ton of the UOited States, whirh says that
all powers not delegated TO Congress are
reserved to the states respectively" it
must oppose all and every law which finds
its origin in forced or implied construc-
lions, and will ever be found on the side
of Democracy battling against usurpa-
ton from whatever source it may come,
all latitudinarian constructions Of the
Constitution Of the Unitud States as sub
versive ofcivil liberty aud at war with the
simplicity Of our republican Government:
still It's columns shall be at all times open
to all parties, knowing that our political
adversarles are actuated by as true a sense
OF patriotism and love of country as our,
selves, ard recognizing among them many
personal friends aud we hope future pat
rons the Union.
1t may be necessary TO add that we
will support the Independent Treasury as
he Constitutional fiscal agent of the Gov
4rnment, and vii! oppose creation by con.
5ress Of any national Banh-yet we have
never, nor has the Democratic party ever
;ontenGed for currency purely metallic,
1ut believe that a well regulated system
'i Stale banks will not only supersede the
necessity of any United States Bank, but
will preserve free and untrammelled the
commerce OF the South, and divert II from
is present unnatural and iIlegitlmate d.
ection.
The first No. of the Lexington Union
will be published Oh next Saturday the
9TH inst. tai IS in advance, or ST at the
