PROSPECTUS
OF THE
Western Congregational Herald;
CONDUCTED by PASTORS OF CONGREGATIONAL
CHURCHES.
g In essentials Unity; in non-essentials Liberty; in
all things Charity"

THE PRAIRIE HERALD having been adj
vertiSed tor sale for several weeks, and APP
pearing TO avail himself of the Offer and the edit
and proprietor not desiring to continue its pub
location, an association has been formed for the
purpose of purchasing it and issuing Congrega-
tional paper in its stead, to be called the IVES
TERN CONGREGATIONALH HERALD.
1t will be the effort of the conductors TO furnish
an interesting and useful religious newspaper
adapted TO the wants of families and individuals
in the North West. While it is not designed TO
be made controversial Journal and will not be
employed to make war upon any denomination
of Christians or any existing evangelical ecclesas
teal or benevolent boards, yet it will take decid
ed grounds in defense of the faith and order of
the Puritan Fathers and Churches and Of the prin-
ciples OF moral Reform. 1t will be found to be an
uncompromising opponent of incompetence, Sla
very and other moral and social vices and evils.
The great Benevolent enterprises of the day, For
eign and Home Missions, &C., will receive its ear
nest support Without being committed to any
plan for prosecuting measures of Christian Phil
anthropy, its columns shall be open to all for free
discussion as far as is consistent with the furnish
ing of Il desirable variety of matter and due pro-
portionate regard to all the subjects which claim
attention in a religious journal. Space will be
afforded for the News of the day, and for articles
of Miscellaneous, Educational and Agricultural
character; nor will the tastes and wants of the
Children and Youth be forgotten. Appropriate
critical notices will also bring 10 the attention of
readers the new publications of the day.
The editorial arrangements will be such as to
concentrate in our columns the local relig-
ious news of the North West, as well as that
which will he gathered from all other parts of the
Union and World.
The size of the sheet, issued weekly, will be a
very little less than that of the Prairie Herald and
the same as that of the Vermont Chronicle, Con
gregational Journal, Christian Mirror, &C.
