We shall be willing to cope with ouradvsrsories,

For the purpose of resisting SO formidable an
opposition, we shall spare no honorable effort to
keep our own party unitod. We hold that this
government belongs to the people of the Statos-
that 1t is their power to give and to take away the
highest offices of the republic--and that every
man, however distinguished by ability or services
should calmly wait until it shall please the people
to call him into their service Such was the
course pursued by our party at the last election
Suct was the mannerin which James X. Polk has
been called from his retirement, and such is the
example which tho people will hereafter initiate,

60 to Washington, to carry out the pledge under
which Mr.. Polk has been elected, and to keep our
party united We go, of course with firm deter
minated to avoid all premature contests for the
cesslon. Pledged to no candidate, committed to
no clique, prejudcod against no portion of our
party, anxious to extend the right hand of fellow
ship to every section and to every honest republi

unte-not to offend but to conciliate; vet in
every case, to discharge our duty, taking for our
best guides the principles of the constitution, and
the interests of our country.
MI. Polk has publicly declared his intention to
remain in office for four years only. He is no
desroust to esttyhis gratitude to his country TO- the
signal honor which she has paid to his pure repub-
can principles, his distinguished integrity and
ability, by zealousy devotng himself to her SER
vice. He is anxious to do all the good which he
can accomplish in the course of his administration,
and we arc desirous of operating with him, with
inferior means, and an humber sphere in the
same patriotic object
The" UNION" will not, however. be excIu-
sively confined to politics.ssIWe shall embrace
within our design the great interests and improve
ments OF the States, occasional excursions into
the field Of literature and science, and in fne all
such matters as entor into the mise cellaneous con-
tents OF news paper whenever we can fiHd suifi-
cient space to introduce them to our readers. Our
position at Washington will enable us to collect
information from correspondence with the en-
lghtened agents of our government abroad, and
to report the condition of distant countries,
through the accomplished officers of our naval
squadrons. We shall not fail to avail ourselves
OF these and other favorable opportunities to
improve our columns, and to inform our readers
We shall launch our bark in few days, and
commit it to the liberal spirit of an enlightened
country.
