out ever being taken aback, and is now ranp
ed A. 1. at all the insurance and other of6no.
of the city. Our policy still holds good and
We never intend it shall run ont.
Dropping our figure, and returning to plain
language, we will now add that we in tend IN
make the Pcayune vehicle of fun. wit bn.
NOR and sentiment, and little of every thing
that's goingon. 1t shall be our delight to crack
Jokes, to tell stories in our own way to ridicple
folly, and to correct the manners Of the ogo
by exciting laughter against them. In this,
however, we shall endeavor to avoid that licep.
tiousncss which vainly seeks to benefit the pub.
lie by wounding the feelings ofindivduals.
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 burdensomc details.
We eschew partisan politics; yet we shall
continue to express our opinions impartialy
on all public measures. Follies in govern.
mont as we'll as in social life are open to rid.
icule; and when the humor scizes US, We shall
not spare them, on whichever party the cen.
sure may fall.
All local occurrunces Of general interest
shall be promptly noticed, so that our distant
readers may see at aTgIance the miniature
world which is congregated in the emporium.
With this erpose Of our intentions, and do.
termlned 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 Picayune" will be published
every Monday morning, at SIS 90 per annum,
payable in all cases in advances; and will con.
tain four additional columns, embracing all
the news of the week, with whatever Of in.
terest transpircs on Sunday.
Those persons at distance who will pro-
cure four subscribers, and send us a $50 bill,
shall be entitled to one copy gratis.
