CIRCULAR.

THE UNDERSIGNED proposes TO publish a
i 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 7hyior came into power, and being dcsirous TO
obtain the aid and cooperation Of the Whig party
he would respectfully state the reasons which, in
his estimation, make il desirable and necessary
that such paper should be established at the sea
of Government.
!. The number of those who use the German lam
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 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
the party bearing that appellaton 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 II is 10 this
Interpretation TO the best advantage.
3. Although there arc 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.
4. The Germans, however, being an intelligent
and reading people, are accessible TO sound argu.
mcnt, and paper conducted with uprghtness, and
speaking the plain truth, will be able, by degrees,
20 overcome Pryudicc-, correct errors and misap-
prchensions, and by its own direct influence,
well as by its influence upon the local Whg pa
the desired effect and gain the rejecting and think
ing, that is the influential, portion Of the German
citizens, over 10 the Whg ranks.
3. The undersigned is well 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 10 be charged
with entertaining too sanguino hopes, II he antici.
patcs satisfactory result.

Stand back, Lewi'dcring politics,
I've placed my fences round;
Pass on, with all your party tricks,
Nor tread my holy ground.
Stand back-Tm weary of your talk,
Your sq1a5blcs, ard your prate;
You cannot enter IN this walk,
I've closed my garden gate.
Stand back, ye thoughts cf trade and pc,i,
have a refuge here;
wish to commune with myself;
lIy mind is out ofgcar
These bowers arc sacred to the page
OF fPhllo>ophc lore:
Wi,hinthesc bounds no cnvics rage:

And hear the Giack-b.rd sing;

And make my peaches straight;
Keep to thc caLseway iiyou please;
I've Shut my garden gate.
Ih1re no room for such as you;
My house is someN hat small.
Let love come here, and friendship true,
I'll give them welcome all;
They VIII not ,corn my household stuff,
Or critci,e ny store.
Pa, oG-.he world i, wide enough;
I've shut NY garden toyr.
Stand back, ye pomp,, and let mc wear

And my heaving heart with fame.
For I love him, yea, love him.

To our heaven-hallowcd temples,
To the Virgins, and TO NE.

Of his Sarsaparila business for 100000,
aml the raw material and machinery of his
manutactorv at Albany, y. Y, for $4,000.
Thomas W. Cummings is the purchaser.
DR.. Townsend relres with very large
fortune.
it has been but abou' ten years since
Townscnds SarsapariIa was first intro
duced 10 the public and in that time ii has
gained a worldwide fame. Not Only is
it Sold in this country. but is shipped 10
the Canadas, West Indles, South America.
and even TO Europe in considerable guam
uries. HIS mandatory al Albany turned
out about 5000 bottles per day. When
he first commenced the business he WAS
worth about $1,000, and in the short time
that his medicine has been before the pub
lie. he has increased that SINGLE thousand
10 hundreds of thousands. His first care
was that every effort should be made 10 let
lhe public know where his medicine was
to be had, and accordingly he commenced
a system oi advertising III me papers OF
the country which finally reached the
enormous yearly average sum of $780,
900. Here then is the great secret OF his
success; liberal in his expenditures To
newspapers for advertising, his business
extended almost beyond precedent, and he
has rraped lch harvest.
