PROSPECTUS
ASA OF THE
WINONA WEEKLY EXPRESS,

The undersigned propose to publish at WI
MONA, Winona County, Minnesota Territory, a
Weekly Newspaper, to be called the "WINoNA
WEEKLY ExPREss," the first number of which
will be issued on or before the first Tuesday in
August next In establishing the EXPRESS, it
will be our aim TO found such newspaper as
we believe the growing and important interests
of Southern Minnesota demand--a paper which
shall merit the confidence and be faithful ex-
ponent of the wants, the principles and the rights
of her citizens. In politics the EXPRESS will
be consistently Democratic, but whilst it will
sustain the time-honored principles Of the party
under whose guidance our common country has
grown from infancy to the full power of maturer
manhood, it will, with all its influence and en-
crgy, oppose tie dogma which unprincipled
politicians are now endeavoring to force upon
us, that party dicipline should sanction the vio-
lation of solemn compromises, and that the fur
Their prosperity of our country is indissolubly
connected with the extension of human bon
dage. Believing that the fraudulent and violent
outrages lately perpetrated upon the citizens of
a neighboring Territory, to be the legitimate
fruits of the Northern Dough-laceism which
secured the passage of the Kansas Nebraska
B IL, we. shall upon all occasions give our in
huetieS "iiu S''pIoit W Su'H PSiSoto oii' hie""-
ures will be most likely to lead to a restora-
ton Of the Missouri Compromise and prevent
the further extension of slavery over any ter
ritory heretofore consecrated to freedom.
1t will treat political and other opponents with
fairness and courtesy, and whilst it VIII always
endeavor to maintain the Truth and RIGHT
against FALsEuooD and ERROR, it will never
descend to become the medium of abuse against
the upright and worthy, merely to crafty the
malice or jealousy of any individual.
The Express will be printed on double
medium sheet, with new type, and it will be
the constant endcavor of the publishers to make
it equal in merit and appearance to any paper
published in the Territory.

people who attend market in this city, at an ear
ly hour, that Mr.. Uuckster, who holds forth
there extensively, is in the habit of purchasing all
the choice articles of the farm, garden and hem
roost, and selling them off after ten O'Clock to the
people of St. Paul. Now if there is not legisla-
tive tact enough among our city fathers to frame
a law that liuckster cannot get round, beg
leave to suggest that an ordinance be passed re-
quiring each head of family to pay his due pro-
portion of all that it will cost to support Mr..
lIuckster at the best Hotel in St. Paul, with an
income of $500 above expenses. We will then
get fresh vegetables from the country. and save
money. Or if they do not like this suggestion, let
