JAMES NJ. SMILEY, Editor.


Notwithstanding the unparalleled pressure
which for the last twelve months, has cromncd
and trammeled every depart ment of the Me-
chancal, Agricultural and Commercial com.
muh!ty, the unwearled and interchangeable ener
gies Oh American enterprise, are once more
giving eVldenceol a higher and fairor prospect
OeloreuS mat quescent attribute, which, for
'i'ie' seemed to mark and designate our
downward procivity to careIessness and indiE
terence, has fortunately awakened from its
sluggish apathy and partially disinthralled
from the latal influence Of too blind credu.
MY IN the nialIlbllity of those whom we have
elevated above US, may we not still indulge the
hope, that there is yet held in reserve, han
Ply result IN the experiment of this last and
once purest Of Republics?
lnstlgated, in part, by that grand revolution
winch has already commenced, and which is
sun gong on in the opinion of the people, SO
Tar as respects the political relations existing
between the respective States and the FEEDER
al Government, the present Proprietor is about
to embark in the publication of the Liberty
Advocate.
Two years ago, this Journal dated its origin.
at period when, in this County, # had many
difficulties to encounter, and the strongest nm.
position 10 contend with. The endurinr and
as we conceive, orthodox principles, which
have nurturod and sustained the journal through
good and through evil report" had then in
their infancy, but a mere minority which sus-
tanned it. But, the resistIess march Of human
reason, before whose advance all obstacles
must ultimately recede, has brought about a
brighter and iairer dawn; and the philan.
hropist and the patriot can now look in nro-
'pective upon the revisit of those purer DAYS.
which once pointed to the destiny Of our much
beloved country.
The political creed of the Advocate will be
ne same which it has heretofore advocated
state Rights and State Sovereignty, will be the
rterIal action which shall give life and amin
ton to its political character.-But, while ex.
rclslng a tenacity for those principles which
MI never yield to caprice, the columns of this
urnal Will, at all times, be open to liberal
lscusslon, and offered as a ready channel to the
dc oil passing events, and an acceptable organ
general science and useful know ledge.
We cordially invite the patronage of all those
no concur witt us in sentiment, as we'll as tho
agnnanlmity of those who dissent from us in

II H w H H in L. IIC "A 4 u n Il.
In consequence Of the popularity which oul
daily paper has gained in all sections of the
country, and the numerous demands we arc
receiving from all quarters for weekly Jour.
nal, we have determined on starting one of that
description, to be entitled the "TnE WEEKLY
PIcAYUNE."
Toadopt the same Ggurative style used in our
first prospectus, we have fitted out the "Pica-
Tme" for more distant voyages, and freighted
her with all sorts of notions in the shane Of
readaOIcSj and if the same success attends her
which she has met with while coasing nearer
home, we shall doubtless receive rich returns.
10 prepare our little craft for the more ex-
tended sea on which she is destined TO move.
we have put on her many additions and im.i
Provements, Some Of her old timbers have
been taken out and replaced by new-she has
a greater measurement foreand aft, a greater
length of beam, and her sheets have been ma.
'craIy enlarged.
:. Notwithstanding tho Increased size, the pub.
nc may rest assured that the 'Picayune' will be
enabled to work in Sh0al ,caier with the same
facility as heretofore, and form channels of
communication which it would be folly for the
