 1 On the fourth of March next, win commence a new administration. Should the Wings succeed in placing in power their candidates, an event which we think there is now but Iitte cause 10 fear. We will take cur stand, raise the battle cry, and s'af with all cur strength, and inabatng zeal, against the fixing upon tle country Mir. Clay's known, and, as VIC think, dangerous and ruinous system Of mea- sures. We will faithfully expose, and warn the people against the certain evils oft National Bank, and the hardships and injustice of Tard for pro- lection. We viii proclaim the impolicy of Bstr- button, and invoke the spirits of it's departed fra mers to shield our sacred Constitution from the yio- latiag hands of Whggery We will continue to plead for the admission ol our gallant little sister, Texas, into the Union Yes, we will plead, not- with lr. Clay and the leading adjqncta of lis ad. ministraion, for he and they, are doubtless neorr- gible-but we will appeal to- and plead with the American people; hoping that if they should reject Texas in the election of Mir. Clay, on second 50 Der thought they will change their minds, and thua. dering at the gates of the capitol, with unanimous and rssistless voice. demand the admission of our fair sister,
 fthe gallant Polk and Dallas are elected, in which event, as before remarked we have the utmost con fdence we will have nothing to do, on the subject of annexation, but to lay down our pens raise the shont of victory shake hands with Texas and well come her beautiful slar into the glorious galaxy Of the Union
 We agsieipate much pleasure in the support of MT. Folks administration. We know the Inan--we know his long cherished and unchanged sentiments
 the honesty of his heart it's tried patriotism, and the elearness of his head. The adjustment of Ia ra for revenue, with incidental protection, not to the manufacturer alone, but to all the industrial in- taresis of the country, bearing equally upon all class es, and expressing snons--the admission of Texas, the occupation and settlement Of oa Oregon Terri- torytho enactment of laws for the extension, pro motion and protection Of commerce encourage ment of labof-the preservation of th. Constitution furnishing the people with the only constitutional curreney-a system for the collection, keeping and disbursement of the revenue independent of all banks -the reduction and graduation of the prices of tie public lands, So as to enable the poor honest labo- Ter to procure home-and the sustaining of our honorable friendly and beneficial relations with for eign powers; will be the principal measures of his administration. In lis efforts to carry out these great measures, and to prevent the establishment of an opposite system of measures, the BANNER will be found constantly sustaining him. with all the in- iluenee it may be able to wield.
 In the meanwhile, the local interests of Arkansas will not be overlooked. Our State is greatly op-, pressed with debt al this time, il IS true, but she has large teaitory-sho has along her thousand streams rich vallies, settled, and rapidly setng with an in- dustrious population. She has her everlasting hts,n filled with rich minerals, covered with valu- able and various rocks, and crowned with exhaust. less timber. With such navgable, agricultural, and manufacturing advantages her industrious, in- creasing and enterpHzing population, by proper economy and the aid of wise legislation, she will be able, in few years, to pay her public dehts save her young and fair escuteheon from the foul stain of epudiation--establish University of high grade, put foot system of common schools, for the diff fusion of intelligence among the mass of her people improve her roads, and clear out her nayigabe streaps--extend her commerce, and, in a word, take q high stand among her sister states To the accomplishment of these muca desired ends, the BANNER will devote no small portion of its time, and influence.
 The mails O each week bring us exchange papers from every section of the Union. crowded with the events of our country and of the great world In our devotion to political matters, we shall not forget 10 lay before readers, foreign news commercial and agricultural iuiormaiionto notice the march of science. and the improvements in the. arts. And we do not promise that the decoying senils of literature will not woo us into her aowery gardens from which we nay occasionally eull pretty boquet, for the lovers of poesy and particularly for the benefit of our fair readers
 Toward those of our editorial brs thren gqho differ from us inpolities. we will maintain courteous and respectful bearing.s When ever it may become ne. eessay to contradict or disproye their statements We will unnehinsly do so, il VIC can, but will do t without reflections upon their veracity. From tdis course we will not depart, unless in self-delcnce and should they pursue different course toward us, We shall, ordiaarig, be disposedto pass them by in silence, as falling below that standard of courtesy and editorial prordety, which entities an editor to respect.
 Conducting the Banner on the above plan, we shall hope for i liberal patronage.
