menced to meet tho wants Of the many Amer.
leans in England, and also to give nforma-
ton to those about to emigrate to this country
We recognise in the publisher, cousin of ours,
who has the Yankee enterprise to push forward to
success any legitimate enterprise requiring talent
and perseverance. We copy portion of the lead
ing editorial of the first number
The intimate commercial and social rela tions,
existing between England and America, seem
,uf6cient reason .Hr the establishment of an Amer
lean newspaper in the isnglish metropolis. While
most of the nations OF Europe nSFe thet respective
Journals in the United States, there Is we bciiefe,
American newspaper published beyond the
limits of the Union. This statement naturally
creates SURPRISE when consider that the COM
rnerciai enterprise of America has induced many
thousands of her people to locate themselves in
Europe. The desirability, of establishing in Eng
land u paper, occupied chiefly in conveying Amer
ic.n intelligence has long been felt on both sides
the Atlantic. There is little doubt that such
paper aside from its special interest TO Americans
will prove acceptable to q vast number of Euro
pcan readers. To the many persons in Europe
who have friends and relatives in America, tho
information this journal is designed to give will
have peculiar interest; and those in the Old
World who are anticipating a removal TO the
New will find in our columns varied information
in relation to settlement in the United States and
Canada.
The London American will be free from all par
tiransbip. II will advocate the essential principles
Of liberty; not the interests of party or any spe-
cial form Of government. We shall urge closer al
lance between England and America, believing
that the advancement of liberal principles depends
In a great measure upon their united action.
The American Government is founded on tho
cardinal principles of the English constitution
1t has preserved the great charter of liberty so
reluctantly yielded to the English people. Both
nation. profess loyalty to free institutions There
i. no antagonism Of material interests, and they
have been repeatedly reminded Of their close re-
la,ionshp of blood language, and religion
Still there exists little of that cordiaity and sym
pathy between tho two nations which their mutu-
sIity of opinions and interests seem calculated to
inspire.
