It is unnecessary to re peat aiui particularize the principles under which the future numbers of the Phoenix will be ^conducted—-ihe principles will be similar to those which have governed the past numbers. The paper is sacred to the cause ofltidians, and the editor will feel himself especially bound as far as his time, talents and lnlormation will pcimit, to ren der it as insts active and entertaining as possible to his brethren, and endeavor to enlist the friendly feelings and sympathies of his subscribers abroad, in favor of the aborigines. As the present policy of the General Government, the removal of all the Inmans beyond the Emits of orgamzeu States or territories, is assuming an important as pect, the editor will feel himself bound to lay before his readers all that may be said on tins subject, paiticularly the objections against this measure of ihe Government. Particular attention will be given to ju dicious miscellany. Choice pieces on re ligion and morals, domestic economy &lc. will nnda ready admittance in the Plm- nix. ; The original part of the paper will be rendered as inteiest.ngaj the means of the editor will allow. Owing to a want of an assistant, it is impossible to devote a large portion of thepaper to the Cherokee lan guage as the whole mu.t be original—The editor will however do what lie ean. The friends of Indians are particularly called upon to assist in this undertaking by their subscript ions. Thus far, the Phoenix has been a dead expense to the proprie tors. It is highly desirable that there -Imuld be Sufficient patronage to secure it from the like pecuniary embarrassment in future.
