n Inauguration Of Mr.. Buchanan, dispc the hopes
entertained by many who did not support his election
to the Presidency that his administration Of affairs
pose to country too long astaed by exciting collisions
Of opinion and interest On the contrary has been
far marked by violence Of measures which is without
precedent, EVEN in the administration Of Mr. Pierce.
In Kansas 1t has given all its patronage not merely
@ faction oesessea Dy me People o. INA. 'elso
whom have participated directly in scenes Of violence
and bioodshed while has concentrated the entire dis
posable o the United States Fort
under the command of man OF known violence Of
character for the manifest purpose Of intmidatng
feow-ctizens the into submission TO foreign vsur

with IRE and sword
In foreign affairs it does disguise its purpose
take immense from the Treasury to be expended
in the Purchase Of new territories, while it threatens
with complications and fatal to in the
sole interest Of an institution, deemed temporary and
exceptional by the founders Of sur Government, but
which aspres W eternity Of duration, and 10
universal dominion. s --ss .ss
The purpose of Mr.. Buchanan's administration clear
y is oReep that agitation Of the Slavery Question
which deliberately entered upon matter Of po
litical calculation in 1884 the basis Of party
agitation to which those who surround him look
confidently for the perpetuation Of their power.
There are large bodies Of countrymen in all parts
of the Union, who deplore this organization Of
toa party at the South bottomed upon the revolution
proceedings of 1854 and still maintained by violent
acts, appealing sectional passions; vino perceive
it osraciscs the moderate and conservative portion Of
the citizens Of the slayehoding States from parncipa
tion and influence in public affairs; and who in this
geographical arrangement of parties the greatest dam
gers Of all kinds including danger to the peculiar nst
tuition the constituencies which is rcckiessly xp
peaed to by political gamblers.

which has determined to perpetuae itself by keeping
up form Of party SO dangerous and SO odious.
An infiexible attachment to the Union a reverence
for the Constitution Of the United States the high
est achievement Of human wisdom; general conformi
as to doubtful constructions Of the Constitution and
to principles Of public administration to the school
Of politics illustrated by genius OF Mr. jefferson;
peace and justice in our foreign relations; the console
daton OF our civilization at home rather than needless
premature or dangerous engagements Of territory; the
dedication Of our present public domain theatre for
the prosperous industry OF reemen and with that view
the prohibition except in moderate guam
Titles to actual settlers; SUCH briefly the principles
feelings, and objects, which will give tone to The Re
Psblic.

Operafe In reducing the expenditures OF the Govern
Snnun by the extravagance and corruption OF party
in power The revenues Of the country are mainly
contributed BY its free iaborer while its disburse-
mcnts Of late years, have been made with very little
reference to their interests Public employments mill
tary, naval; and CIVIL have become more and more
crossed by peculiar class, which bears little Of the
public burdens, and which has thus had double mo-
tive 70 augment salaries and expenditures.s
