that high Tariff will prevent the expectation OF

what we said the other day, about large orders being

THE MADISONIAN.
TO OUR FRIENDS.

We are making arrangements the particulars
will be announced at the opening Of the Ses-
sion) which will, we think, secure the Madisonian
more universal circulation. Our nesssant laoors
for the last twelve months have impaired our
health and rendered occasional relaxation absolutely
necessary. We have therefore secured the services
of one of the best writers Of the day. who as assist
ant editor will devote his whole time to the paper
We have secured correspondents in many oil The
States whose letters will keep readers constantly
advised of the political movements throughout the
Union.
We will give daily condensed report of the pro-
ceedings Of both Houses of Congress; and the most
important speeches will be published at length in our
columns.
The official transactions Of the Government VIII
be published in the Madisonian exclusively.
The views and purposes Of the Executive, in ref
crence to the course and policy of the Administra-
ion, will as heretofore, be made known through the
columns of this paper.
The PRINCIPLES of the Madisonian are known to
be those Of the REPUBLICAN PARTY of 80. They
will be adhered to through sunshine and storm.
We ask our friends, who the advocates Of Truth
and Justice, to exert themselves in behalf OF the
Madisonian, between this and the assembling OF
Congress, so that the organ of the Administration
may not only be efficient in repelling attacks, but IN
carrying, when necessary the war into Africa.
We trust that our friends generally will be able
to send us additional new subscribers by the Mem
bers.
