[ PROSPECTUS
5 OF THE
P BANTERS’ GAZETTE.
5 Edited by D. G. Cotting, Washington, Georgia.
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 ’o 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.
1 And first, as to our political creed. Believing
, that there is at present \ crisis in our national as
,, fairs, which requires the hearty and unremitting
e exertions of every true lover of his country to
- preserve it from the destiuction that menaces it
y 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 State Rights doctrines and
- the principles of the revolutionary patriots only,
can preserve it inviolate, we shall give our unde
viating support to those doctrines. Our motto
shall be “Principles and Men;’’ therefore, of the
prominent candidates for the Presidency, now te
i lore the people, we choose those for our support
i who we believe will carry out State Rights mea
i sures, viz: General WILLIAM HENRY HAR
, RISON and JOHN TYLER, gentlemen wffiom even
- their enemies allow to be true patriots and honest
i men.
s As the title of our journal indicates, we shall
devote much of its columns to the interests of
a Agriculture. We shall endeavor to give to the
, Planter the latest and best information of the im
s provements, now almost daily taking place in his
t business. We are aware that in the strife of party,
agriculture, the foundation on which society rests,
t has been too much neglected hy the press, and that
e some “Reform” is needed in this respect,
f All the aid incur power shall be given to the
cause of literature, and we shall endeavor to ren
der the Gazette as interesting as possible to every
class of readers.
