The Madisonian. [volume] (Washington City [i.e. Washington, D.C.]) 1837-1845, 1841-04-09
PROPOSALS
FOR PUBLISHING THE MADIsoNIAN
DAILY.

Encouraged by the administration by the extensive
measure of favor with which this journal was reeev-
ed during the late Presidential contest by the People
by the gradually increasing support which has since
acceded to 1t, and which has given to it circulation
as large as that of any political journal in the
Union, 1t Is now proposed to enlarge its sphere OF
action, and thereby it is hoped its field of usefulness,
by publishing it DAILY before the opening of the
Extra Session of Congress on the first day of June
next.
President Harrison (whose confidence it will have)
vigorous support, far il is worthy of it, and
to maintain its cause with efficiency against the COM
mon enemy Loco -focoism. To explain and diffuse
the principles by which the administration will be d.
rected-to disseminate truth-todefend the rights Of
the States-the liberties of the people-the interests
and institutions the honor and the faith of the country
-and to spread before its readers the earliest local
news, and political and general intelligence
One great revolution, viz change of men, to some
extent, has been accomplished Another and more
important one remains to be consummated viz the rer
storaon of the government and the country sound
and heathfu condition. To execute successfully the
great and patriotic trusts which the people have
signed to Gen Hanison, it essential that every de-
partment of the government be invgorated and that
those whose votes decide all questions should sustain
himjus,y if not generously. Remembering the pari-
otto zeal which distinguished the great mass of the peo
pie during the memorable campaign of ls4O we look to
the same quarter with confidence for firm and stead
fast support of the administration they have chosen so
long as it adhercs to the principles which called it into
power
The Extra session of Congress TO convene on the
3ls of May will doubtless be one of great interest
and Importance. A corps of stenographers will be
engaged to report literally, far practicable the
public debates, and TO spread before the country the
results of the daily deliberations of Congress
The editorial columns will be strengthened by some
Of the best talent in the country
As, however, the publication will be attended with
1 very heavy expense it will not be undertaken un-
ess the accession of subscribers to the daily edition.
md the disposition of the citizens Of Washington
shall be such as TO give earnest of permanent sup
bort If the indications be unfavorable the paper will
,nly be published as heretofore, every other day
