The well known fact that the Republicans oil Tins cry
arc destitute OF organ promugate their Opinions
and advocate their principles IN connection with me De-
nocraiic Press Of the interior, has been subject o. re-
itcrated complaint and regret. Circumstances OF IA
yorable nature consprg measures have been aooptea
TO commence the publication Of the TUNES ana Com
merciaL Iafeigencer upon footing calculated 70 en-
its Independence and permanency'
The political character Of the Tunes and Commercial
IaieiGgsnecr will be strictly Democratic Repnbhean u
will adhere TO the principles Of the party which brought
into existence aud sustained the late administration ~
will labor TO define the ancient land marks, ana 10 nam

happiness Of the people ,,-r
la marking out this line, which both duty anu ine
nation will prompt rs To pursue, we desire 10 DO uhu
stood conceylng that certain measures ana Pon'so
policy entertained by portion Of the inenus o. me
present general administration, form no part Of the ne
publican creed OF binding influence, but as mere ques
tons Of expediency rest upon debateable gouhu, aha
may be opposed according the dctstes OF conscience
and Judgment This paper will therefore be iouna IN

We cannot resist the conviction that the Republican
party Of this State has been placed towards It's oppo-
nens in false poston--a position which exposes Il to
eminent hazards. which is daily aud hourly weakening
its energies and which, IN its threatened prostation,
surrounds country with the worst dangers ever APP
pretended from the ascendency OF federal mIsrnle
When we contemplate the havoc which has been made
with the Republican egons IN the short space OF eehl
or ten months and weigh the certain indications OF he
volutonary movements in public sentiment, 10 states
where elections are pending, we cannot regard y 40
either safe ust honorable to deriate further rom
the "republican track marked by the footsteps OF
those distinguished Presidents who have IN times past
secured the tumphs Of Democracy, we feel impeed 20
reject the Councils which bring us nothing out defeat
and humiliation The Times and Commerc'ai Infeta-
pencer will therefore endeaycr to expunge the hereses
which have been inteIpoated into our creed, and TO
rectify the errors into which they had betrayed our
friends. To the genuine cause OF Democracy we are
sincerely welded, and there Is no power, whist re-
mains pure that can divorce affections or fervor
from it, But from the spurious faith OF the Loco Focos
and desirucyes sought 10 be engrated upon our pn-
cipes and be substituted in our embraces we turn
with adherence and disgust. The Times and Com
erciai Iaeigeneer will labor TO restore the Democrs-
CIV again to its former vantage ground-to re-organI7e
its broken and dspirted iegons-to rebuild It's crumb-
ling temples, and re-estsbsh It's ancient ordinances
and to behold it again fonrishng and predominant,
fecng the moral influence Of this great republic abroad,
al protecting the interests Of It's numerous people at
home We shall rejoice to be permitted TO contribute
efforts to this contamination II our labors shall
prove frutess our admontons 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-
cious freight II afterwards the madness OF the few
shall dsaPpont the hopes OF the many and the voice OF
destiny shall proclaim that g ROME MUST FALL, heduen
and earth shall trtness hhat noe arc innocent'
