PROSPECTUS,

The undersigned having purchased control
| ling interest in the MADlsoNIAN, proposes TO issue
DAILY PAPER from this Office on 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's
/ Administration, there is every reason TO believe
that such measures only are in contemplation by
the present head the Government
i We propose to labor for the entire restoration
Of the pure doctrines and faithful practices Of
the founders of our Republic-not TO battle for
the mere exaltation of partisan dctators. To
advocate those principles of our patriotic fathers
which were altogether designed TO ensure the
prosperity and happiness of the Confederacy in
their original purty-not TO tear down the mod
ern fabrics of demagogues to erect p.destals
| for other ambitious and dishonest aspirants. in
short, II Is our design to pursue the RIGHT, alike
needless OF party names and party interests, and
| TO expose the WRONG, emanate from what men
or in what sections it may. But it is far from
our intention ever to indulge in wanton and
vulgar abuse. Yet we will not suffer the men
and measures we advocate to be unjustly as
persed, and wrongfuly assaed, with impunity.
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
public all the circumstances connected with the
origin and fate of the two Bank bills.
