are destitute OF organ TO promugaie their opinions,
and advocate their principles 10 connection with the De-
mocrac Press Of the interior, has been subject OF re-
iicrated complaint and regret Circumstances Of la
yorable eoisprng measures have been ADOPTED
10 commence the publicstion Of the TUNES and Com
merciai lnfeLgeneer upon footing calculated 10 en-
sure its independence and permanency.
The political character Of the Times and Commereial
Iaisiligeneer will be strictly Democratic Republican IL
will adhere TO the principles Of the party which brought
into existence and sustained the late administration IL
will labor define the ancient land marks, and 10 main
tanin their primo vgor the ancient usages Of the party
which. whilst they were observed rendered inyincE
ble and secured simple and constitutional admnisa-
ton OF public affairs, at the same time that they pro.
noted in the highest degree the undivided welfare ana
happiness OF the people.
10 marking out this line, which both duty and incli-
nation will prompt opursue, we desire to be under
stood concerning that certain measures and points oi
policy entertained by portion OF the friends OF the
present general administration form no part OF the Re-
publican creed of binding influence, but mere qnes-
tons of expedency upon debatesble ground, and
may be opposed according TO the dictates OF conscience
and Judgment This paper will therefore be found IN
opposition the "untisd eTpedenfs" Of the day The
country needs repose from the sgations or demagogues
and empires Ii is time that period of depression
exampled in it's duration, and in its disastrous conse-
quences should give way TO the return OF confidence
and the resumption OF the ordinary pursuits OF trade and
industry the measures Of the government shall be
found variance with the suggestions OF sound policy,
or are brought into collision with public sentiment every
for the public good cries aloud for their
abandonment To convince our rulers, that they mis-
take in some sense the indications OF the public will,
and embody the scattered rays Of that will in SEN
sble and tangible form, will be deemed TO come within
the legitimate province Of Journal and to compose
prominent objects in the prosecution Of our 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 positions position which exposes It to
eminent hazards, which is daily and hourly weakening
its energies and which, its threatened prostraton,
surrounds country with the worst dangers ever ap
pretended from the ascendency OF federal msrue.
When contemplate the havoc which has been made
with the Republican egons in the short space OF eight
or ten months and weigh the certain indications Of Re-
evolutionary movements in public sentiment, IN states
where elections are pending, we cannot regard II as
either safe, Just, honorable to devate further from
the republican track" marked by the footsteps OF
those distinguished Presidents who have in times past
secured the rumphs Of Democracy, feel mpelled 70
reject the Councils which bring nothing but defeat
and humiliation The Times and Commercial Infelti-
geneer will therefore endeavcr to expunge the hereses
which have been nterpolsted into our creed ana 70
rcctify the errors into which they had betrayed our
friends To the genuine cause OF Democracy we are
sincerely welded and there is power, whilst re-
mains pure, that divorce our affections or iervor
from it, But from the spurious faith Of the Loco Focos
and destrucves sought to be engraed upon our prn-
cipes and to be substituted in embraces we turn
with sbhorrence and disgust. The Times and Com
creiai Inielgcneer will labor to restore the Democra
cy again to its former vantage ground-to re-organIe
its broken and dspirited egonso rebuild Its crumb-
"A az -. adj
and to behold it again Aourishing and predominant
fleeing the moral influence Of this great republic abroad
ard protecting the interests Of its numerous people at
home. We shall rejoice to be permitted TO contribute
our efforts this consummation II our labors shall
prove frutess our admonitons shall not be wanting
We will make more attempt to put the good ship
before the wind and to save her gallant crew and pre-
cous freight II afterwards the madness Of the few
shall dissppont the hopes Of the many and the voice Of
destiny shall proclaim that (" ROVE MUST rALL, hearen
and earth shall ,cifness thai are innocent"
