PROSPECTUS
OF THE FIFTH VOLUME OF


4WB IAUNN V40R1&u
We present this paper % the public with
the view Of extending the circulation Of the
WING of this city still further into the
midst of the community In which we live,
than our present subscription extends. The
extension of political intelligence and truth
the spread Of general and miscellaneous
information-the support Of public morality
and the moral character Of our stale, and
IaboriouS compensation 70 the proprietor and
his family, make up the motives for this
effort to extend our subscription list.
For seven long years we have, in this cit
lent an untiFing exertiOn in behalf Of thu
great cause Of political truth and the welfare
Of our country. We have opposed the late
and present administrations Of the general
government without hesitation and without
compromise IN al things where they have
acted, in our opinion, for the benefit Of q
party, regardless Of the good Of the people.
And through the dark seasons Of the coun-
try, within the last two years, when public
Wickedness seemed TO flourish like a green
bay tree-When the President seemed 70 be
successful IN carrying bis party and his party
measures IN party triumph over the land s'iB
spife of ne lamentations Of ne people," we
have not faultered in single nerve or re-
Taxed in q single effort in the battle Of re-
form. But uniformly we have maintained
the moral ispossibiiiiy Of the final success
of party and consequent overthrow Of the
people, Ia country like this. We have
maintained an unWaivering confidence in
the patriotism Of the people, that they, sooner
or later, control their own interest and rid
themselves % this immense unnecessary
evil, that now so universally paraiises the
industry Of the people Of this great country.
We have underworld faithfully to spread
over the country all useful information, such
as we, from time 70 time, have thought would
interest and benefit our readers; and we have
underworld ID protect the public morality
and character of the State against foreign
aggression and internal pickering and dis
1uie.ude.
We present, as an earnest Of the future,
The pages Of our journal which we have ale
ready published, and our promise that our
industry and perseverance shall be at all
lines IN reqnistion to make our paper as
lseful o the public as With our means.
Any person procuring fpe subscribers shall

The death Of William Henry Harrison,
