I quote from a ■ letter of his to John Adams, dated Paris, Nov. 13 ■ 1757- *‘l wish that, at theend of four years, they ■ had made him [the President] forever ineligible a ■econd term.” He saw the temptation that would ■ operate on the President to secure his second vote. ■He saw how all Executive acts during the f ist ■ term would have a bearing, a looking out towards ■the second; and he was for cutting olf at once the ■ root of the mischief. But on this point Harrison ■femes pledged. He will not serve a second time. ■ Whoever, then, approves and would see carried out Hpjf principles of Jefferson, let him lend his aid: here ■is an opportunity such as may never return, I Charleston, July 29.

IN offering a new Journal to the public for pa tronage, it is customary and proper to set forth in a prospectus, the principles which its conduc tors intend to support, and to give such pledges as to its management that its patrons may not at any future time find themselves deceived or disappoint ed in its course. And first, as to our political creed. Believing that there is at present a crisis in our national aU fairs ,which requires the hearty and unremitting exertions of every true lover of his country’ to preserve it from the destruction that menaces it that a powerful and fatal influence is now exerted upon our institutions by ambitious and unprinci pled politicians; that the Constitution, that safe guard of our liberties, is in danger from their ma chinations, and that the Stale Rights doctrines and the principles of the revolutionary patriots only, can preserve it inviolate, we shall give our unde viating support to these doctrines. Our motto shall be “Principles and Men;” therefore, of the prominent candidates for the Presidency’, now’ be fore the people, we choose those for our support who we believe will carry: out Stale Right* mea sures, viz: General WILLIAM HENRY HAR RISON and JOHN TYLER, gentlemen whom even their enemies allow to-be true patriots and honest men. As the title of our journal indicates, we shall devote much of its columns to the interests of Agriculture. We shall endeavor to give to the Planter the latest and best information of the im provements, now a'most daily taking place in his business. We are aware that in the strife of party, agriculture, the foundation on which society rests, has been too much neglected by the press, and that some “Reform” is needed In this respect. All the aid in our power shall be given to the cause of literature, and we shall endeavor lo ren der the Gazette as interesting as possible to every class of readers. Terms.—Three Dollars per annum, payable in advance, or Three Dollars and Fifty Cents, if not paid within the first six months.
