CIRCULAR.

TINE UNDERSIGNED proposes TO publish a
IL political Weekly paper in the German Ian
guage, in the City Of Washington in support of the
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 it desirable and necessary
that such paper should be established at the seat
of Government.
l. The number of those who use the German lam
guage their medium of intercourse is upwards of
Three Millions, and this number is constantly in
creasing by immigration.
,. The name of Democrats being the appellation
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 appellation in this country,
as soon as they are able TO exercise the elective
franchise; and the more so, as the country teens
with Democratic papers in the German language,
whose particular object and anxiety it is to this
Interpretation 10 the best advantage.
3. 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 sbscr iption lists, they do gene
rally stand or fall with the success or defeat of the
Wing party in their particular section.
4. 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 prejudices, correct errors and misap-
prehensions, and by it's own direct influence, as
well as by its influence upon the local Wing pa
pers, now in existence, will it is hoped, 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.
5. 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 sangune hopes, if he antci-
pates satisfactory result.
