ON which the publication will be undestsken.
The prominent feature Of the paper will be PoLITi-
cAx Il will battle s~alously tor sousd Republican
Democracy, with view TO the 'grealesa good Vt the
greatest number" or THE AMERicAH PEOPLE
The world is indeed governed too much" and il
il equally true tina. powsr is constantly stealing from
the many 10 the fsw." The Editor will therefore
contend E little government as possible that ifIe
smanating from and controlled by the People, and
uniform 10 iis application to all.
1t will advocate tbs retention Of much individual
liberty a. s consistent with the security Of each
Der Of the Republican Confederacy.
II will respect the persons The rghts, the property
and the prejudices Of all.
Ii will acknowledge the superiority Of mental pow
er, over tina, Of money and corporate privileges.
IL will oppose arbitrary and unjust legislation, OF
such legislation 10 calculated to benefit lording
few at the expense ofths people great whole.
1t will oppose the establishment Of "a MoNEY Ma
CHINE in the shape Of United States Bsnk. Past
experience has fully tAsgh the danger of such in
stilulion, aud revealed s cO'ruPtng and demoraizng
tendency. II will support, however, any scheme Of
finance which will secure he General Government
entire control of1 funds to carry on its operations
without resIant subject to such regulations as may
prevent its misappcation by Government officers
whether that scheme of finance be denominated The
Exchequer," "lndependent Treasury" or "Fisca
Agent" 4r53 l5
Il will srenuousIy oppose all Hon TARwP regua-
TONS but will favor Tanff for a. much revenue a.
may be required 10 carry forward Government upon
the simple and economical principle and At the
same time afford Incidental protection to American in
dusny.
Il will oppose the Land Dis,rihu,ion schems---,bs
robbing Of Peter to pay Paul-especiaiIy at moment

II will advocate an increase Of aud an improve
ment in the May, drmly believing that in it, efic-
ency consists the protection Of nann from foreign
insult and aggression. In TIME OF PEACE Prepare
PoR war;" was an injunction Of the Father of our
Country, VIII ch should be indelbly impressed upon
the heart of everv true American citizen.
The paper will extend cordial support TO the pre-
sent National Administration in all measures essen
tally democratic, and intended 10 benefit the entire
American PsopIe-whIIe at the same time, It will not
hesitate to expose I'll abuses Of trust and power whe-
thor committed by the Chef Executive of the natisn
or any other servant Of the People.
II will fully reveal the workings and intrigues Of
corrupt and selfish pol ,iciaDs, especially when
they found endeavofing TO build up splendid Go
vernment through the aid Of an irresponsible money
power, upon foundation Of Clay, without regard to
the purity Of the principles upon which tho Republic
originally established.
In regard 10 the candidate Tor the Presidency it
is somewhat premature TO declare any particular per-
sonaI preference, especially when 90 many good end
sterling Democrats named in connection with that
Office. The editor, however believes that The sober
second thought ofthe People is never wrong, but al
ways efficient" and he is willing to abide tho fulfil
ment Of the sentiment in due time and act 10 accord
anee Herewith.
The paper will recognise the efficiency of Party or
ganisation but will not hesitate 10 canvass with all
fairness and candor the pvetensions Of all cand
for office prior to the regular nominations by ma
jolty of the People, through their delegates other
wise.
In Short the editor will labor zealoosy to advance
the moral and political happiness Of the whole People,
andto carry out far may be practicable the doc
trines of the Fathers Of Democracy, a. summed up
the simple phrase, Equal and exact justice to all
men,"
In addition to its political character, the Express

cial departments will be strictly attended to- and
