THE STATE JOURNAL.

THE STATE JOURNAL enters upon a new career,
under auspices which promise permanence and
increased usefulness.

of the cause and to secure it, all must labor
zealously and devotedly, and take their chances
| in the general result. Ie a.
Aiming to treat every member of its own party
generously, it will be just to its opponents. 1t
will discuss all questions of public interest fairly
and temperately. Asserting the right earnestly

truth which it is called to declare, it will aim to
speak the truth in love-"

everywhere and be as prompt to expose corrupt

We shall advocate all measures to advance the
public good, originating in our own party or out

us and the opposition without seeking issues
where all good men should stand on common
ground.

The iurrow; he will harrow the valleys

He will gather thy seed in the barn.
Ills strength is terrible, in which he re-
joiceth.
Tie paweth the valley, and waxeth proud
IN his speed. He mocketh at fear, neither
tulneth his back from the hobgoblin.
Lo how he moveth his tail like a cedar /;
us sinews are as cables.
Ills bones are like strong pieces of brass;
yea, like bars of iron.
lie eatheth like an OK; behold, he drink

y Who can approach the door of his face ?
