stTangled the MONSTER BANK. He set limits to the wild schemes of Internal Improvement, and he insisted on bringing back the Tariff System to it's legitimate Revenue uses.
 But the Federal Party was not yet extinguished. Their extraordinary efforts in lS40 to defeat that able Statesman, Martin Van Buren, aided they were by the vest devices and by the grosses abuse ot the money power, contributed, with the singular condition o the country to place them again at the head of the Goyernment. Ii is not necessary for us to recaptnlate the struggles which have since en- sued to describe the ndonable spirit of our friends or their final glorious triumph in the election oi James K Polk. Another era is then opened to us. His administration has just commenced He comes to carry oatthe principles of the REPUBLICAN PARTY and the pledges to that end under which he was elected. He takes the JEFFERsoNIAH ERA for his standard, and WE, too, forward to support the principles Of the Republican Faith, and to give 10 his administration fair liberal and elcientsuppor We Willoppose atltudniousconstructlon fthe Con- shtutIon-a NATIONAL BANK in any of It's forms an extrayagant and unconstitutional system of Ma Hena Internal inprovements-an insldlous Dlstri- button of the Proceeds of the Public Lands-the Assumption of State Debts and such a Bankrupt Law as disgraced the Statute Book in lS42
 We shall contend against an unjust and unequal Tariff. We will support a fair and just revenue standard Ihls rate should be moderate ln itself, and sufficient to raise adequate means, along with the proceeds of the public ands to meett expenses of the Government economically administered. We are, therefore, in favor of the most enlightened sys tenn which has been suggested by the experience and the wants of the Treasury-'.a system adjusted on scale consonan with all the great and various interests ci the Union without sections" It is now hoped that the time is near at hand wherein just and equal system of revenue may be introduced in order to silence complaint, and to equaze the bes sings and the burdens of Government. Such, we satisfied is tie true spirit of the Presidents late admirable Inaugural, whose general views of the and oG safely defy all llibera criticisms of the late English journals. Ii looks to reYenue standard of duties, honestly levied for the purpose of raising the sary funds to deiray the economical expenses of the Government; and 10 be levied in such manner as to equaize, as far practicable, the public burdens upon all classes aud sections.
 We shall deem it our solemn 1uty to respect those essential compromises in the Constitution which se- cured its adoption. These were f'thc result of a spirit of amity, and of that mutual defeIence and concession which the peculiarly of our political situation rendered indispensable" They directly condemned the rash and meddlesome disposition on the part of the Abolitionists to interfere with the peculiar institutions of one portion of the Conlede- racy, which is strongly calculated to distract our public councils, and 10 create alarm about the UNION !tself
 We pledge ourselves likewise to sustain the Ad- ministration in the efforts which will be made to to the United States the undisturbed posses- sion of Oregon. However much the late English journals may have pretended to deprecate-howevel idly they may haverdculed outright to the country We entertain doubt the lusttie of the American Government, Weecl assured that, in the settlement of this momentous question, nothing will be omitted by the President et the United States which may be demanded by proper spirit of conciliation, and a due regard to the rights and honor of country. But other subject now call upon our attention, and al this time transcending all others, is the ques- ton of the ANNEXATION OF TEXAS. It is scarcely oil consummation of that great question. None have been more zealously devoted than ourselves to the admission ol the LONE STAR into our constellation. should any difficulties the part of her Gov efnment, or of the WHtes of the United States, we shall spare no exertions to remove them.
 These important questions once adjusted. and the Tariff system brought to the proper revenue point We may then expect more tranquility n our party felatlens-but Peace, aepef. The danger can never be over, so long as We haze party which Is actuated by such false principles which is strong in itself So ably organized, so closely cemented together, so ldolarously attached to is leaders, and fatally impelled by it's excited passions, and its mortified pride. They ofe even now preparing to attack the ADMINISTRATION, to Iaisrepresent its measures, abuse its appointments, and pull down the REruBLG- CAN PARTY, in order that they may rise upon its ruins.
 For ourselves, We prepared to resist them now, and hereafter, vigorously as the Editor of this paper has done for more than forty years. With suchanopposihoa we musteXpect constant encoun- ter,-and we go to Washington with determined spirit to resist themto expose their heteTodoX prin- ciples-te clear away their rmisreprescntatons and to baie the election ltheir leaders. We shall attempt to discharge this duty, we hope, under due sense oi the dignity of the pREss We shall be willing to cope with our adyesares not in personal abuse, but with fair arguments, in the open field.
 For the purpose of resisting so formidable an op- position, we shall spare no honorable efforts 10 keep o1 q. ment belongs 10 the PEOPLE of the SrATEs-that it is their power to give and to take away the highest offices of the REPUBLIc-and that every man, how ever distinguished by ability or services, should calmly wait until t shall please the people to call him into their service. Such was the course pursued by our party at the last election. Such was the manneria which James K. Polk has been called from his retirement, and such is the example which the people will hereafter initiate, if the present Admin lsuahon shall be crowned with the benefits which every good man wishes, and which every honest patriot Will attempt to accomplish. In any event, we will seek to make this moral lesson effective: and, for this purpose, we go to Washington to carry outthe pledge under which MT Pollkhas been elected and to keep our party united. We go of course, with the firm determination to avoid all premature contests for the succession. Pledged to candidate committed to no clique, prejudiced against no por- ton of our party anxious to extend the right hand of fellowship to every section. and'to every honest Republican, go to our post of duty not to disturb but to unite-not to offend but to eoncate; yet, in every case, to discharge duty taking for our best guides the principles oI tho Constitution and the in terests of our country.
 Mir. Polk has publicly declared his intention to remain in office for four years only He is no doubt anxious to testify his gratitude to his country for the signal honor which she has paid to his pure Repub- lican principles, his distinguished integrity and abil ity, by zealousy devoting himself to her servce- He Is anxious to do all the good which he can ac- complish in the of his administration and we are desirous of cooperating with him. with inferior means, and an humber sphere, in the same patriotic object.
 The "UNlON" will not, however, be exclusively confined to politics. We shall embrace within our design the great interests and improvements of the States-occasional excursions into the field of Lit eratnre and Science, and in fine, all such matters enter into the miscellaneous contents of news paper whenever we can find sufficient space to in troduce them to our readers. Composition at Wash iagton will enable us to collect information from correspondence with the enlightened agents of our government abroad, and to report the condition of distant countries, through the accomplished officers of NAVAL SQUAnRoNs. We shall not fail to avail ourselves of these and other favorable opportunities to improve eur columns and to inform our readers
