principles by which the Administration Of Gene

obtain the aid aud cooperation of the Wing party,
he would respectfully state the which, in
his estimation, make II desirable and necessary
that such paper should be established at the sea
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.
?. The name of Democrats being the sppellation
Of the liberal or popular party of Germany, to
which all the immigrants before their emigration
belonged, they do of course range themselves with

3. Although there few Wing papers in the
country, they bear principally local character,
and, relying for their support more local patron
age than their subscription lists, they do gene
rally stand or fall with the success defeat Of the
Wing party in their particular section.
I. The Germans, however, being an intelligent

10 overcome prcudiccs, correct errors and misap-
