We shall endeavor to make those smupps,.

We shall send our boat aboard Theatro,I".
and other amusements; those pretty peaMa'
boats, which make our passage over the ID.
of like so delightful. Dancing we shall eT0
Icially encourage; as we conceive that the ,,c,
ty OF vessel often depends upon keeping 5,S
pumps going.
On first launching the "Pioayune' we proU.
ised TO carry a press Of sail in case we were
warranted by sale from the press. ThrouoS
all the storms which have ragged since she fS,
sailed she has borne up under full sales with
out ever being taken aback, and is now rank
ed A. 1. at all the insurance and other Office,
of the city. Our policy still holds good, and
we never intend it shall run out
Dropping our figure, and returning to plain
language, we will now add that we in tend IA
make the Picayune a vehicle of fun, wit, In.
NOR and sentiment, and little of every thnr
that's goingon. 1t shall be our delight to cracH
Jokes, to tell stories in our own way, to ridicuIe
folly, and tocorrect the manners of the aUe
by exciting laughter against them. In this
however, we shall endeavor to avoid that liceu.
tiousness which vainly seeks to benefit the pub.
lie by woundng the feelings orindividuals.
A portion of our paper will be occupied with
notices Of all passing events
giving the pith of the news Of the day, with.
out burdensome details.
We eschew partisan politics. yet we shall
continue to express our opinions mpartialy
on all public measures. Folies in govern
ment as we'll as in social life are open to rid
icule; and when the humor seizes US, we shall
not spare them, on whichever party the Gen.
sure may fall,
All local occurrences of general interest
shall be promptly noticed, so that our distant
readers may see at glance the miniature
world which is congregated in the emporium
With this erpose of our intentions, and de-
termined to endeavor with unremitting indus
try to fulfil them, we look with confidence for
a continuance Of that patronage which has
hitherto been so cordially extended to us.
The "Weekly Picawune" will be published
every Monday morning, at S. 90 per annum,
in all !" c3 5dGSnnses im and w con- ON
The news Of the week, with whatever Of in.
crest transpires on Sunday.

'ure four subscribers, and send us a $50 Bin,
