while the name of my paper indicates, in u
mistakablc terms, its politics, | shall, as
faithful sentinel lose sight of Wings, Der
ocrats, and Republicans, and remember on
my Government and the preservation of Il
Federal Union, as richly worth all the sacI
fees Of blood and treasure, their prescrvatid
may cost even to the determination of Il
present race Of men, and the consumption
all the means Of the present age!
Intervention, national jealousy, and hatre
double-doalng, and piratica cowardce ha
been governing principles with England; al
when our home troubles are settled, | W

been characterized by diplomatic nsincerit
and truly loyal American journal can c
terrain no other feelings toward NApoLE{
than those Of hatred and contempt
The crolas'ing Negro Question brought
this war-the corrupt leaders of the Sou
alleging that it was necessary to render
"pecular institution secure, when it was
cure under the Constitution, and could new
be secure anywhere else. 1t is now no long

country; and | have no sympathy with
Southern Disunionist who has lost his sav,
Slavery has been destroyed, and the South
done it, without any provocation whatcv,
This position | will openly take and stubborn
maintain.
