entertained BY many VINO did not support his election
would be moderate and conservative as to give re-
pose country long agiated by exciting collisions
opinion and interest On the contrary it has been 20
far marked BY violence measures which is without
precedent, even in the administration Of Mr. Pierce
In Kansas il has given all its patronage, not merely
but to the most odious Of that faction Of
whom have participated directly in scenes Of violence
and boodshed while it has concentrated the entire dis
pOsabe army Of the United States at Fort
under the command Of man Of known violence Of
character for the manifest purpose Of nmdatng our
feowcitizens there into submission to foreign usur-
PATTON and Intimidation fails, OF desOiating them
with fire and sword.
In foreign affairs it does disguise its purpose

in the purchase Of territories while il threatens
with complications and fatal to commerce, in the
sole interest OF institution, deemed temporary and
exceptional by the founders of our Government, but

The purpose Of Mr. Buchanan's administration clear

acts appealing sectional PASSIONS who perceive that
ostracses the moderate and conservative portion Of

1t is proposed by the undersigned, to establish
Newspaper at the City of Washington, in which, the
views OF these portions of our countymen may be re-
Cd rtll h1 rIaNT sho hEr

by pandeng TO the passions Of the slavery propaganda
The Republic will resoutely oppose Administration

Of politics illustrated by the genius Of Mr. Jeferson

contributed by its free laborers while its dis5urse
ments, of late years. have been made with very little
refer ence to their interests. Public employments mill
tary, naval; and civil, have become and
crossed by peculiar class which bears little Of the
public burdens, and which has thus had double mo-
| tive to augment salaries and expenditures.
