A SUFFICIENT TINE HAS ELAPSED SINCE THE
IA Inauguration Of Mr. Buchanan, TO dispel the hopes
entertained BY many who did not support mis- election
70 the Presidency, that his administration Of Affairs
would be moderate and conservative "A to give re-
pose country long agitated BY exciting collisions
Of opinion and interest on the contrary mas been 20
precedent, even in the administration OF Ar. Pierce
In Kansas il has given all its patronage, not merely
to faction detested By the people Of that territory
but to the most odous men Of that faction, some OF
whom have participated directly in scenes Of violence
and boodshcd; while has concentrated the entire dis
posabc army Of the United States 1t Fort Leavenworth
under the command Of a man Of known violence Of
character for the manifest purpose Of illuminating
feowcitizens there into submission to foreign usur-
patton, and II intimidation fails Of desOlating them
with hre and sword.
In foreign AFFAIRS It does not disguise its purpose to
take immense from the Treasury, to DO expended
with complications and fatal 10 commerce, in the
sole interest Of institution deemed temporary and
exceptional BY the founders Of our Government but
which aspires to eternity Of DURATION and to
universal dominion.
The purpose Of Mr. Buchanan's administration clear
~ Is to keep up that agitation OF the Slavery Question.
which was deliberately entered upon ~ matter Of po
ticaI calculation in 1854, the basis Of party
then formed to control the destnies Of the country
agitation to which those who surround him now look
confidently for the perpetuation Of their power
There large bodies Of our oountrymen, In oil parts
Of the Union, who deploFc this organization Of
tonsl party at the South, bottomed upon the revolution
ay proceedings Of 1884, and still maintained BY violent
acts appealing TO sectional passions who perceive that
1t ostracses the moderate and conservative portion Of
the citizens Of the slavehoding States from partcpa
ton and influence In public affairs and who see In this
geographical arrangement Of parties the greatest dan
Of all kinds including danger TO the peculiar inst
tuton the senstiveness Of which Is 50 recklessy ap
pealed to by political gamblers.
It Is proposed BY the undersigned, to establish =
Newspaper at the City Of Washington, in which. tho
views Of these portions Of our countymen may be re-
nected This newspaper will be styled The Republic,
and will endeavor to maintain nationality and CON-
prehensiveness Of views, worthy Of Its name.
Esteemins as the most imminent and pressing nation
81 DANGER the attempt 10 attain geographical party,
BY panderng to the passions Of the slavery propaganda
The Republic will resolutely oppose Adninistra
which has determined to perpetuate itself BY keeping
up form Of party SO dangerous and odious.
An inhexible attachment 70 the Union, . reverence
for the Constitution Of United States Is the high
est achievement Of human wisdom; general conormi
as to principles Of public administration, the school
Of politics illustrated by the genius Of N Jefferson
peace and justice In foreign relations the CONSOLE
daton Of civilization at home rather tan needless
premature dangerous engagements Of territory the
dedication Of present public domain theatre
the prosperous industry Of freemen and with that view
the prohibition its transfer except moderate
titles to actual settlers such, briefly the principles
feelings, aud objects, which will give tone to The Re-
public.
II will be one Of the aims Of The Republie to CO.
operate in reducing the expenditures Of The Govern
ment, which have been swollen to seventy millions per
snnum BY the extravaganza and corrupionof the party
In power. The revenues Of the country are mainly
contributed BY its FREQ laborers, while its disbrse
ments, Of late years. have been made with very little
reference to their interests. Public empoments mill
tary, naval; and civil. have become snd
crossed by peculiar class, which bears little Of the
public burdens, and which has thus had double mo-
tive 10 augment salaries and expenditures.

public will be printed . mammoth Sheet n by n
