CIRCULAR.

TINE UNDERSIG NED proposes TO publish
Il political Weekly paper IN the German Ian
principles by which the Administration of Gene
raj Taylor came into power, and being DESTROYS To
obtain the aid and cooperation of the Wing party,
he would respectfully state the reasons which, in
his estimation, make il desirable and necessary
that such paper should be established at the seat
of Government.
l. The number of those who use the German Ian
guage as their medium of intercourse is upwards of
Three Millions, and this number is constantly in
creasing by immigration.
2. The name of Democrats being the appeaton
OF the liberal or popular party OF Germany, to
which all the immigrants before their emigration
belonged, they do of course, range themselves with
the party bearing that appelation in this country
soon as they are able to exercise the elective
franchise; and the more 80, as the country teens
with Democratic papers in the German language,
whose particular object and anxiety 1t Is to use this
Interpretation to the best advantage.
g. Although there are few Wing papers in the
country, they bear principally local character,
and, relying for their support more on local patron
age than on their subscription lists they do gene
rally stand fall with the defeat of the
Wing party in their particular section.
A. The Germans, however, being an intelligent
and reading people, are accessible to sound argu.
ment, and paper conducted with uprightness, and
speaking the plain truth, will be able, by degrees
to overcome prejudiccs, correct errors and misap
prehensions, and by its own direct influence, as
well as by its influence upon the local Wing pa
pers, now IN existence, VIII, IL Is hopcd, produce
the desired effect, and gain the rejecting and think
ing, that is the influential portion Of the German
citizens, over to the Wing ranks.
g. The undersigned is well aware that he has
many and serious obstacles to overcome, but rely
ing upon the power of truth and the cooperation
of the Wing party, on account of the intrinsic
merits of his enterprise, does not fear to be charged
with entertaining too sanguine hopes, if he antici
pates satisfactory result.
