pages and be printed on 6ne paper in very gu

finely engraved portrait of distinguished living
man, embracing Statesmen, soldiers, artists, and
authors. The political character Of this Revieto
will be, its title indicates, D<nocra &c, and, one
of its main objects, to eucdate the true principles
of the Democratic party. 1t will examine in spirit
of fairness and candor all the leading measures of
the present Administr alton, and accord to them
cheerful support. Should we, however, unfortu.
nately differ in opinion any point from the Pre-
sident, we shall not hesitate to express our own
sentiments, and present the reasons that constrain
US to do so-submitting to the Democracy of the
country the decision between us. ,
This R<vteso will also aim to furnish it's readers
with graphic and comprehensive notice of the.
new works published, which may seem TO be emit :.
tied to it, and also record of all scientific dscov
cries and Improvements.
The present condition of he nations of Europe
and the attitude in which come of them stand to-
wards certain portions of this continent have in .
vested our foreign relations with the utmost i'm
portance. Never was THE Government placed in
situation OF more critical difficulty than at the
present moment. The m ct inHexible frmness

with those Of Europe. We confidently trust he
Administration will be equal to the task. We shall
watch with unsleeping eye the progress of affairs
in Mexico and the West Indies. Here alone is our
vulnerable part
This Repie,o will abstain from all personality +,
and seek to harmonic and unite the Democratic
party, both in feeling and principle. 1t will be
the ponent of no clique, faction, individual.
The editor will speak for himself independently
and fearlessy, under thorough sense of the re
sponsibity be assumes. The undersigned have
selected editor, after careful consultation With
their prominent Democratic friends, and have
chosen whose ability and experience they be
lieve will secure for him universal confidence and
respect. From his articles the public form a
correct estimate Of the merit of this publication.
Several of the most distinguished writer's in the
country have engaged to become regular con
tributors to our pages, Weask neither confidence
nor patronage if they be not deserved,
Our first number will contain general outline
Of the course we design to pursue in future.
