PROSPECTUS
OF THE
YPSILANTI SENTINEL.

In soliciting the patronage of the public ior
the proposed publication, it is due to that pub
lie to give an outline of the views and prlnci-
pies by which We shall be governed, and TINS
duty We proceed to discharge. While We
shall endeavor to make our sheet the channel
tor communicating TO our readers, the mteill-
gence usually given in a public journal, It's
character will be essentially political; and ac-
cording to the original sense OF the term, as
applicable to this government; strictly demo
cratic. We have lived sufficiently long, how.
ever, TO learn, that names are but TOO often
illusory and deceptive, and that tine arts OF
imPostors are seldom put in practice, except
under cover of some specions and imposing
appellauion. We shall not therefore rest our
CLAIMS upon name, but invite inc severest
scrutiny of our readers to the fidelity with
which our professions as al editor are main
IaiDed and practised
AS the only legitimate object of republic
can or democratic government is the equal
protection Of the rights, and promotion of the
welfare and happiness of all it follows as an
irresistible conclusion, that that administra-
ton. or system of measures which is most
conducive TO these ends, is best entitled to the
appellation of democratic And as the only
true test, of the merit of measures or admins
on the interests and moral character of soci-
ely, it is by this standard alone that We snail
aim TO be governed in passing judgment upon
them.
We believe the doctrines or rather the dog
mas Of party as inculcated by the leaders
that school laying exclusive claims to democ-
racy. TO be the most dangerous, because the
most insiduous enemy tn the interests and in
situations of the country--that il demands OF
is vntaries passive obedience to the order of
leaders, regardless of the claims of patriotism
OF county, or the constitution. Our endeav-
or shall therefore be, to expose and counteract
the dangerous aid enslaving tendency of this
doctrine, and enforce as far as in our power
lies the higher obligations of duty to ourselves
and to our country, believing that where the
requirements of party are thus urged by its
leaders, the proceeding carries on its face the
most conclusive evidence. that ii is their own
interests and not those of the country they are
laboring to promote.
We believe that the wealth, happiness and
independence of our country, depend on the
encouragement and protection of the labor and
industry of our own citizens, and the cultiva-
ton of our own resources in all practicable
cases for the supply of our wants. in prefer
ence to reliance upon precarious supply,
to be drawn from abroad, subject to the cap-
rice of the world and the contingencies of for
eign commerce.
To this outline of our views we shall scru
pulOusly adhere, and with this declaration, Oh
fer odr sheet to the public and solicit it's pat
ronage. JOHN VAN FOSSEN.

 hanother column will be found an abstract of the proceedings of the Convention. which remained Tn session until too late an hour for the reporters to write out ill full the many excellent speeches made; the result is ioy enough for one day, and we must defer any longer notice of the proceedings at this time.
 We will merely remark, that before the Convention adjourned, the news had been transmitted to Washington by Telegraph, and the following response returned, which was announced to the Convention by Gen. HAL sEY, of New York:
 "Ihe Democratic members of Congress to the National Convention assembled at Bal tlmore, greeting THREE CHEERS FOR JAMES K. POLK, OF TENNESSEE
 This was responded to by the Convention III nine heartfelt and vociferous cheers.
 AFTERNOON SEssIoN-The Convention is now insession. Mir. WRIGHT, of New Y ork. has been put in nomination for the Vice Pres dency.
The Arkansas banner., 1844-06-12

On the second ballot, CHARLES STEWART had one vote; and on the third, LEVI WooD- BURY had two.
 After the seventh ballot, the Ohio delega- ton feeling that injustice had been done to a majority of the Convention by the operation of the two-third rule,
 Mr. Bartley, as their Chairman, moved to rescind it. He advanced the motion at considerable length, taking much the same ground as had been before taken in opposi- ton to the resolution, and urging its resci- sion with great zeal.
 Much excitement followed, and the Pres ident decided that vote of two-thirds was necessary for the adoption of the motion.
 RIr. McNulty, of Ohio, appealed from the decision of the President, and after speak ing for some time upon the appeal, gave way for motion to adjourn, as the excitement had become so intense and the confusion so great that it was found utterly impossible to transact business.
 And the Convention adjourned until o'clock Wednesday morning.
 WEDNESDAY MORNING, May 20.
 The Convention assembled at o'clock, and the question being on the appeal of the gentleman from Ohio, (NIr. McNulty,) from the decsiomof the Chair, after some remarks from Mir. Bartley, of Ohio, the appeal was withdrawn, and the resolution upon which ii arose was suffered to lie on the table.
 A motion was then made to proceed to another ballot.
 Mr Tibbatts, of Ky, said the delegation from that State had been instructed to use all honorable exertons to secure the nomination of Cols Johnson, and as the Wings had taken their candidate from Kentucky, the Democ- racy of that State had hoped that this Con- vention would have selected another distin- gushed citizen of that State as their standard bearer in the coming contest, but himself and colleagues were now satisfied that the candl- date of their choice, could not receive two thirds of the whole number of votes, and as they desired to do every thing in their power to effect compromise and promote the sue cess of the Democratic party, they should withdraw all preference, and now vote for some other candidate.
 Mr. Brewster, of Pennsylvania, spoke at some length, in relation to the peculiar posi- ton which the Pennsylvania delegation occu- pied in the present crisis, reviewing the his tory of the proceedings of the party in that staie and deprecating the division which for the last lhiee ballots had existed ill the dele ton Ga portion of them having voted for Mr Buchanan Pennsylvania first choice was James Buchanan, but after the withdrawal ol that pure patriot and high minded man, she had in her last 4th of March Convention ln- strueted her delegates to vote for Martin Vrn Buren. Every delegate had been pledged to carry out those instructions and wo to that man who dared to disobey them.
 He had been asked to explain the position
The Arkansas banner., 1844-06-12

The President then announced the whole number of votes given to be 266; 177 neces- sary to choice, consequently Col. POLK having received the entire vote of the Con venton, was declared unanimously y nominated as the candidate of the Democratic party for the Presidency.
 On this announcement being made, the whole assembly rose as one man and gave three deafening and enthusiastic cheers, and nine cheers more for Col. Polk, amidst the waving of hats and handkerchiefs
 On motion of Mir. McCahen, of Philadel- phia ceunty-ss three cheers were also given for Texas.o
 And afterwards three cheers were also given for Mir Van Buren.
 Three cheers were likewise given for Col. F. M Johnson; three for every gentleman that had been spoken of as a candidate for President of the United States.
 The State of Virginia having been called to give her vote
 Mir. Roane stepped forward and related the circumstances which induced the delegates 10 withdraw the vote of Virginia from Gen Cass. and cast them for Colonel Polk After he had concluded

TUESDAY AFTERNOON, May 2S
 The Convention met at 355 o'clock, and proceeded to call the names of the States.
 Mir. Toucey, of Connecticut, raised point of order, when
 The President decided that in all cases where the number fdelegates from any State. equalled the electoral vote, they might vote per capita if they chose, but where the number of delegases exceeded the number oi electors, as in the case of Virginia, it could not be done
 Some objection was raised to this decision by several members, but the Secretary hav- ing commenced the call, motion which Was made to submit 1t to the Convention, wheth- CT State could vote per capita, was no entertained.
 The following is the first ballot:--
