From the indications which the recent electlons nav
given u.s. we cannot doubt that thorough reiorni Al

Great and manifold the evils winch haFT 49,
inflicted upon us by the measures OF Mr. van Duien
we have suffered yet more severely ny l,o $3.50
which his friends and supporters, while IN the cohro
of our state government, have pursued Inc eIec-

Earnestly impressed with these opinions, we snail
devote our energies, in especial manner, 10 tile
correct information of the public on the subject VI inc
situation of the State, its liabilities and It's

great work of public reform, we shall devote large
portion of our paper subject connected more I'M
mediately with the private interests OF the planters
who constitute the great mass of the people OF the
State. The state of the cotton MARKET the incidents
which may effect it, the improvements in its cultlva-
ton, will receive large share Of attention, and
in esnection with the subject, we shall devoted
a reasonable space to those matters ofdomeshc econ
omy which have been too much neglected in Mssisslp-
pi.
In the indispensable duty of examining the conduct
of public men, we shall avoid the abusive tone which
has of late much disgured the public press Diff
ference of opinion does not constitute crime IN our
eyes, nor shall treat it such. We will endeav-
or to discuss principles fully freely and fairly, and
conquer adversaries with the sword OF truth,
the only weapon which the freeman is authorized to
in his contests with his countrymen. Facts will
be stated candidly and impartally. We have no de-
sire to belong to party which requires falsehood to
support it, and will dissolve all political
connection with that to which we now attached,
than misstate or mssrepresent facts to sustain it.
With this faint outline of intentions, we SUBJ
NIT proposals the sublic in the hope that they
will meetits appreciation, and with determination to
do all in power to merit it.
The first number will be issued or before the first
of January next The price viii be FIVE DOLLARS

scription lists will please forward the names before
the paper is issued.
