We reiterate to those fanatical pirates who
cruise under the black flag--who oppose sl.ye,
ry because they are themselves the sIeros I,
Ignorance and uperstiiion--who pref p.
rub clean the upper decks Of their neip lbor,
with holy stone--we say look out for br4at
To Hotel keepers we recommend our pancr

To the Heads Of Families the trim anneo,
ance Of our craft will be an object o { iniercs,
Most married folks have experienced the er.

We shall send our boat aboard Theatrical
and other amusements; those pretty pleasure
boats, which make our passage over the lake
Of like so delightful. Dancing we shall espc-
cially encourage; as we conceive that the safe-

On first launching the "Picdyune" we prom.
ised 10 carry a press Of sail in case we were

oily, and to correct the manners of the age
~ exciting laughter against them. In this,
however, we shall endeavor to avoid that licen-
iousness which vainly seeks to benefit the pub
ic by wounding the feelings of individuals.
A portion of our paper will be occupied with
notices Of all passing events
giving the pith Of the news Of the day, with
'ut burdensome details.
We eschew partisan politics. yet we shall
ontinue to express our opinions impartially
m all public measures. Foliies in govern
nent as we'll as in social life are open to rid
Guile; and when the humor seizes us, we shall
lot spare them, on whichever party the cen

All local occurrunces Of general interest
hall be promptly noticed, so that our distant
eadcrs may see at a glance the miniature
world which is congregated in the emporium.
With this expose of our intentions, and de-
ermincd 10 endeavor with unremitting indus
ry to fulfil them, we look with confidence for
continuance Of that patronage which has
itherto been SO cordially extended to US.
The "Weckly Picdyuae" will be published
very Monday morning, at S. 90 per annum,
ayabe in all cases in advances; and will con-
ain four additional columns, embracing all
he news of the week, with whatever OF in
crest transpires on Sunday.
Those persons at distance who will pro-
IRE four subscribers, and send Us $50 bill,
hall be entitled to one copy gratis.
