PROSPECTUS.

| The undersigned having purchased a control
ling interest in the MADsoNIAN proposes to issue
DAILY PAPER from this Office on or about the
| 18th of December.
The paper will be devoted TO the support OF
| such constitutional measures as the interests Of
the People may demand-and from what has
been seen OF the purposes Of President Tyler,
| Administration, there is every reason to believe
that such measures only are in contemplation by
the present head OF the Government.
! We propose TO labor for the entire restoration
OF the pure doctrines and faithful practices OF
the founders of our Repubhc-not TO batlle iu
the mere exaltation of partisan dictators r.
advocate those principles Of our patriotic fathers
which were altogether designed to ensure HI
prosperity and happiness Of the Confederacy ii
their original purity-not 10 tear down the mod
ern fabrics OF demagogues to erect p,destal>
fol other ambitious and dishonest aspirants III
short, II is our design TO pursue the RIGHT, alik,
needless OF party names and party interests. and
to expose the WRONG, emanate from what men
or in what sections il may. But it is far from
our intention ever to indulge in wanton aud
vulgar abuse. Yet we will not suffer the men
and measures we advocate TO be unjustly as
persed, and wrongiuly assaed, with impuniiy.
Heartily approving The independent course
pursued by the President during the late extra
ordinary session of Congress, II shall be our en-
deavor, at fitting period, to place before the
origin and fate Of the two Bank bills
