suited 10 their peculiar principles; avoid

cPirions-beleviug that such a course
faithfully pursued. could not fail % meet
the apProba'ion of both parties. Indeed
that course has been repeatedly applaud
ed by the coolor heads and purer hearts,
whether Wing or Democratic. But the
times are changed. / fairly conducted
neutral paper no longer suits tie parti-
Fan spirit of a large portion Of the COM
muniiy. And we now have the spscta-
Gle of a Wing newspaper in the town
Of Bowling Green, appealing to the spir-
it Of Whiggery for approval and support:
our course then, lisa plain one. Happily
our duty and our inclina,ions harthnn-
lie: and we henceforth devote whatever
Of time, talents and industry, may be
ours, 10 the diffusion Of Democratic prin-
ciples. And we therefore place at the
head Of Il columns, as candidates for
President, a:d Vice President of the
United States, the name of JAMES X.
POLK Of Tennessee, and GEORGE NJ.
DALLAS, of Pennsylvania. In advo-
eating the claims of these gentlemen for
the highest Office in the gift of the Anne
rican people, and in endeavoring 10
further the great principles ofthe Demo-
cratic party, it is believed, that we will
be contributing TO the interests of a ma
jority of our readers.
The change which now occurs, was
contemplated during the first of the last
summer, but a variety Of circumstances
which @ have no existence, forbid
that we should carry into execution our
design. But as all obstacles have been
removed. we have rushed into the lists.
determined 10 do battle FIR a cause IL,
which our feelings have long been deep
ly engaged. Though a country sheet,
like ours, is not calculated 10 effect any
great revolution in the aspect of the po-
iitical world, and must be limited in its
Influence. still we are disposed 10 con-
tribute our mite towards the elevation Of
a party, whose success is: we believe,
Intimately connected with the future
welfare and prosperity Of our Union.-
We shall therefore devote orr energies
10 this end, and shall enter with zeal and
enthusiasm into the present animated
contest.
Upon all political questions, our O.
