PROSPECTUS
OF THE
RIPLEY ADVERTISER,
Volume Second.

HE great interest taken in the Presidential
- canvass, tngether with ifs near approach,
renders the acquisition of political intelligence
a m after Of Importance to the pubic. The lin
tied means possessed BY the immediate North
eastern section of the State where no paper cir
culates to a great extent, calls for something to
supply the deficiency. Under these circumstan-
ces, the undersigned presents the claims of the
RIPLEY ADVERTISER as medium of publ
information.
In doing this, he deems it unnecessary to enter
into lengthy exposition of the character OF the
paper. Its publication for twelve months past
has given the public some opportunity to Judge
Of its claims to support. 1t will advocate, as
heretofore, the Wing cause, believing, as does
the Undersigned, that the ascendency of whig
principles will promote the best interests and
prosperity of the country. But whilst he will
| endeavour zeaously to maintain his own politl-
Cal views, respect will be had for the opinions OF
those OF his fellow citizens who differ with him,
Whatever Of interest occurs in the proceedings
ofthe State Legislature will find place in the
columns OF the Advertiser; and it will be the
constant endeavor Of the undersigned to suit, az
far as practicable, the tastes Of all in the choice
Of matter, and to present an acceptable sheet "a
the general reader. Having encountered the
trouble and expense Of establishing press at
TINS place, he trusts that liberal patronage
Will be extended to him, especially BY those
whose political opinions coincide with his own.

MAN, and filed with contributions from the most
eminent and accomplished writer. Of the country.
The motives which have led to the commence.
ment of this e,takiug may be briefly stated
It Is believed by the proprietor that there is in
the United states an immense provision of liter
airy ability for which as yet there is no adequate
encouragement or field of display; that besides
the numbers of clever and successful writers
whose productions are weekly, and monthly, and
annually read with delight by thousands, there
are yet greater numbers constantly arriving at
maturity ofpower who have only to appear on
the srage of publication to receive a pri liant
award of fame, and that the powers Of those
whose names are already pronounced with res.
pect by lips of wisest censure are capable of
more and still higher euertions than has yet
been called forth. 1t is believed, too, that the
demand for literary production in this country,
especially in the periodical canuel, exceeds tie
supply in very large proportion, and that new
'upPlies have only to be presented of the right
quality and in the way to ensure a hearty well
come and profitable reception. No doubt is
entertained of the American minds ability to
ustain itself, certainly on its own ground if not
abroad, against all the competition that the
Intellect Of other lands can bring to the encoun.
e.; and full assurance 10 felt that among the
ri lions Of American readers there can be and

ers can produce of excellent and interesting.

Tho day is gore. dark grows the skies,
The ,imid stars their lamps reveal,
And Ger earlh's weary, drowsy eyes,

Bu. Ger my soul pale light streams,
Too fain, for heaven, too pure for earth
tgides me through the land Of dreams.

The land Of friends, the land of love-
How radiuntIy its vision beams,
As well.known faces seem to move
And smile before my sigh. in dreams.
Their voices on my sense. fall.
Like heavenly music, siIen, long;
They trembIe on my heart, and call
Ito sIumbering echoes into song.
Now as gaze their forms expand,
More closely to my side they move;
They take me gently by the hand.
They utter words ofpeace and love.
feel their kisses on my brow,
Their soft signs stealing through my hail.
see their eyes with love o'erAow-
My tears ofjoy flow freely there.
Beautiful forms! They put to fight
The moody clouds hat round me roll.
And shine like gentle stars, to light
The solemn midnight Of my soul!
A lovely dream!-but i, is gone
Awaken'd by the noise of men,
lie upon my couch alone,
And rise to busy life again.
The dream is gone-bu. still the hue
Offs rare lustre round me CLEANS,
And, for this happy interview,
bless the God Of love and dreams.

in the local authorities to the rights 81 tore1gn.
ers, and to prerent fresh causes Of complaint.
Tney certainly take quay all prefe1t tor refer
ring. cs has been heretofore done, the sufferers
10 the State Governments for redress"
Now these were the sentiments of Gen. Jack
son and his cabinets the very essence and con.
centration of f" State rights" democracy, (and
so acknowledged by all true disciples III Texas
az well az in the United States,) concerning the
utility and necessity Of those changes in the
Mexican form OF Government" which have been
made pretext of the civil war, begun and car
RED on by one set Of these men, and countensn-
ced. aided, and abetted by the other.
But we have testimony from the Texan con-
spirators and brigands themselves To the same
effect For the purpose of ehectuatlng Their
project Of loan in Europe, for winch they de-
puted James Hamilton, it became important 10
alleQe causes iustifcatory of the rebellion ano
separation of Texas Hamilton and Swartwout,
supplied with funds embezzled in the United
States, undertook te make grand demonstra.
ton upon Europe, in favor of the reputation OF
the Texans One of the allies retained IN this
undertaking, was the Edinburgh Review, which
prosttuted its pages to their poliuting touch.
The positive falsehoods the suppresslons OF truth,
the audacity, the cslumnies and inconsistencies
of the Infamous paper contained in that journal,
can have had but one origin. take 1t unhesi-
tatingly as Texas testimony. Its date Is January,
l84O. The following is specimen
"This Constitution, Tthe Federal unintelhgl'
bic to the create, part of those who had sworn TO
it, was respected by none but the momentary
gamers in the scramble for power; and at the
close of every civil contest, the worsted party
invariably made no scruple Of appealing to the
sword. Amid these continued disorders, civil
zation retrograded, industry was discouraged
and national prosperity disappeared The oPpo,
nents Of Texan independence will find 1t difficult
to imagine any tie of duty that should have
continued to bind the living body of Texan IN
dustry and order, to this carcass Of Mexican
anarchy and confusion"
Yet it was the bare attempt of the Mexicans
to free themselves and their country from the
behting and intolerable evils of such System,
that was alleged as the leading justification for
revolt and civil war. Precioss specimen OF
machiavelism! Nay, it is something beyond
that; and we need new name! Liars have
need of good memories" These revolutionists
4lleqe the change of the Government, (Which
they reverenty affect to claim the privilege OF
living under all their deys,) as a justification OF
revolt; end then again they tell US that that same
Government was SO bad, before it was changed,
az to Justify revolt and civil war;!
