SOMETHING NEW.-We copy the following
from an exchange:
The millennium is surely at hand. The edj-
tor Of a country wing paper was last week taken
sick, and called on his rival, the editor of the
democratic paper in the same village, to get out
his paper for him, and a right s~prightly number
he made of it--decidedly the best Of the season.
BY the way, if all the political editors of the
two partiss were to exchange ~places-the wings
taking the editorial control Of the democratic
papers, and the Democrats that ofthe wing pa
pers-we have the evidence of the case before
us that at least one good result would follow:
there would be an absence of low, personal
abuse, and in the place Of political slang, &c,
given.

VIM. r. ~BRADBURN.

The undersigned will, on the 18th day of June next, be-
gin the publication in the City of Washington of a daily
Wing Administration paper, to be called THE REPUB-
Lie" the editorial supervision and management of which
will be committed to the exclusive care of Alexander C.
Bullitt and John o. Sargent.
The Republic will give to the principles upon which the
administration of Gen. Taylor came into power, a cordial,
jealous, and constant support. 1t will be a faithful record Of
the times; it will discuss public measures in an impartial
and independent spirit; it will be a vehicle of the latest and
most authentic information; it will be, in word, a political
newspaper, devoted to the liberalizing and progressive doc
trines which prevailed in the late presidential canvass to
the interests of labor, as developed in the wants of agricul-
rure, commerce ond manufactures, and to the cause of lit
erature, science ard general intelligence.
The Republic will acknowl ledge no allegiance except to
the country. 1t Will aim to merit the confidence and support
of the American people. 1t will be the organ of no person
or party, Or fraction of a party, in that compulsory sense
which would hinder it from speaking boldly and candidly
to the people about whatever it concerns them to know.
The Republic will be printed on a double royal sheet, in
q new, large, clear, readable type.
Besides the daily paper, there will be published a Tri-
Weekly and Weekly Republic, made up Of the most inter-
estipg and mportantm matter of the daily issue.
TERMs-For the Daily Republic, sl0-For the ri-Week
ly, S6-For the Weekly, 50.
To Postmasters-Any Postmaster who will transmit us
$40 shall have six copies of the Weekly Republic sent to
such persons as he may direct; and SIS will entite a post
master to three copies of the Tri- Weekly. paper.
No paper will be sent unless the order is accompanied by
the money. All communications upon business must be adj
dressed to GIDEON & co.

SDONEC FOLUME OF THE
SOUTHERN SENTINEL.

-
This journal is now in the second volume of its existence
and with every indication of continued prosperity-in fact.
It's renovated and healthy appearance, must moi only be
conclusive evidence of lis success and stability, but, the un.
dersigned trusts, ilkewls Use givcsfull surety that unrenltting
energy and industry have been ever present, not on!y in SUI
pcrintendIng Its mechanical department, but in %uphoiding
and indicating those principles which the " higs CLAIM as
the true foundation of our Republican institutions.
The present rtgnette at the head of the Sentinel is sufi.
cient evidence of the confidence that is reposed in the hero
now at the head of this nation, who took upon himself the
responsibility at the battle of Buena Vista! His career so
far has been marked by decision, equity, and goodness of
heart, and with q determination on his part to act as the Pre-
sldent OF this Republic, as the Constitution, circumstances
ana requirements demand OF him, the better to secure the
advantage and permancnce of those views and principles
as laid down in his Inaugural address. And having full,
faith, in the purity of his enlightened mind, What care the
friends Of ZACHARY TAYLOR for the hatred, ISLANDERS and
vituperation,s SO Indignantly heaped upon him daily By the
opposition press throughout the countryl Uudisturbed as
the quiet lake by the mountain torrent that roaring leaps
into its peaceful bosom, Will be the Chief Magistrate of this
nation by the low, selfish and windy attacks Of those who
have arraycd themselves as his opponents.
The Sentinel, as it Will be perceived, is clothed in an entire
new dress, aud having the advantage OF beng published in
about the centre of the State, offers supe rior advantages 10
city advertisers, as a highly acceptable medium for bringing
their business I'm either ~langupge) prominently before the
planters and other residents of the interior; and the un-
dersigned hopes that his New Orleans friends, as well as
those at home, will continue to extend him those favors 50
LITERALLY bestowed heretofore he viii strive to deserve them
As a Family Paper, the Sentinel will challenge its superi.
or in the interior Of Louisiana. Equally as the sentinel on
the watchtower of our political rights, will it be the guar
dian of that mora. tone and sentiment which give character
dignity and safety to a community, creating respect from
abroad, happiness and prosperity at home.

that had no beginning-that has no end. The
