TO our friends and patrons
M m, y The . weak" the " vile" the
.mercenary" MADIsoNlAr, as our ieoers' enc,
ME. termed it, is "going ahead" In spite oil al
their ISLANDERS.
since the denunciations in the Senate oy
Mr. Manenns, and IN the House, by Mr.
RoYs, the Madisonian has received an unex-
pectsd. perhaps an unprecedented accession TO
its subscription list And now every ediuon OF
our journal is distributed throughout all quar-
,ers and actions of the Union. Thus are we
enabled TO hurl back the blows OF Congressional
politicians, by sending "our say" TO their own
constituents.
After one Of the fercest struggles IN the an
nails Of politics. nine months battle-we nave
the satisfaction of witnessing the defeat ana
disgrace of all the Presidents "pecullar enc
miles, The President and bis friends have not
only succeeded in ejecling the enemy from the
Csntol. or II al events in forcing them TO
,erms.n rs Mr.. Arnold substantially remarked !;
lul they are able to carry the war into Africa
pursue them into their own districts, and W.T.
ness the coup de grace administered by 'her
constituents.
But j, was no, our intention in this article to
dwell on the complete triumph OF the Executive
and the People, and the signal overthrow OF their
enemies. We merely desired to congratulate
our readers on the success and prospects oil the
"offical Journal" which has been 50 often so
Indignantly assailed by the foes Of the Constr
tuition.
II is true we bled copiously at the onset We
expended many Thousands before the ranks OF
the Federalists were broken, and while they
were most ngloriously robbing US Of the little
Executive printing which was accorded 10
General Washington and all his successors, I'M
I'll the acce ssion of President Tyler. But they
knew not the extent of our resources-they were
mistaken in supposing that any paper must fall
after mourning the enmity Of the Merchant
Princes and Bank aristocrats"
But we have another battle-a three months
engagemen,--to fight at the coming and final
session of the Clay Wings, and we intend to
follow up the advantage won in the last cam
paign. But we want another recruit of TWENTY
THOUSAND new subscribers, and We shall open
the next campaign with flowing colors, and ter.
inmate it finally with victory perched upon
our banners. For this purpose we have ad-
dressed this article to our frtends and patrons,
and we are well convinced that the appeal will
not be made in vain to the friends of the Ad-
ministration. If each of our country subscri-
bers will get one or more of his acquaintance to
subscribe for the tri-weekly (semi-weekly during
the recess) and send US the needful, we will bt
content.
In the mean time we shall continue, as we
have done heretofore, to serve our distant
friends to the extent of our ability, who have
been ruthlessly prescribed by the retired Cabi
net to make room for brawling partisans now
assailing the Administralion-and also those
faithful and honest incumbents, whose political
foes are insidiously endeavorng to undermine
them by means of fraud and base deception
with the purpose TO smuggle political hypocrites
into as many of the public Offices as possible
We will do this not as a return for subscription
money sent us, but as duty to the Admins
traton.
~ Many Of our friends in the Southwest
inform us that they have sums in specie for u.s.
but cannot procure current notes. We would
suggest that half-eagles and sovereigns can be
ranked separately by Postmasters. If these
can be procured, we ask them to try the expe-
riment.
PS We desire our hostile contemporaries
to comment as severely ON the above article as
possible. They have already aided us more
than our friends in getting an immense circula-
ton.
