In addition to which, he will . shortly be furnished with a series ot Essays, written I by Literary Gentlemen, who have taken a Geological view of this country, in which will be shewn the com plete arrangement of the different Strata <>f earths and rocks, forming this interesting section of country. mid in what kind Gold is most usually found The Edi tvrwill endeavor at all times to procu e from Mine eulogists, literary men and practical observers, such > information, as will keep up a constant investigation ofthe various minerals found in this country. In the way cf Miscellaneous matter, lie will make the best selections in his power both of a dome-tic an foreign nature As regards the polit'eal course of this paper, the Editor will endeavor to pursue a liberal course keep ing at all times his columns open to the discussion o political subjects, which are or may be of interest to the country. In relation to his own political opinions, he con eiders th< m to be such as have been maintained in the Southern States, from the adoption of the Federal Constitution down to the present time. He believes that Federal encroachments, should be guarded • against with vigilance and repelled with promptness “ Yet, however, in contending for the Rights ot the States, he cannot go to the extraordinary and danger ous extent of some of the politicians in a sister Mate ; because he believes it would ultimately end in the de * Struction ofthe government and all its rights Ilts opinions however he considers as nothing more than the opinions of any other individual, he will therefore endeavor to act the part of a faithful Jour -7 nslist without being subservient to the views of any ♦ party, leaving his paper open to the investigation of truth, and all interesting subjects by all. The first number of this paper will appear in a few Weeks. Terms —Three dollars per annum payable in a vance ®r Four DOLLARS at the expiartiun the year. Advertising nt the usual rates.

Our object is simply to call the attention of th<- public to our press, and ta enlist the aid of those in its behalf with whom as a party we are determined to act. 1 he self styled “ State Kights Party” having adopt ed the doctrine ot nullification in its most obnoxious sense, as the very soul of its creed, we wash our hands of it forever, and pledge our best exertions to support and maintain that party both at the Southandthrough °!it the whole country, which, rallying around that abused and villified patriot, Andrew Jackson, have pledged themselves to maintain, against consolidation on one hand, and nullification on the other, the integri. ty, honor and glory of our free institutions. With this free and candid acknowledgment of our views and sentiments, we submit our paper to the ten der mercies of our opponents, and to the protection of our friends Dur opposition to nullification hereto fore, has, as might have been anticipated, called down upon us the proscription of a portion of our old friends, and their exertions to prostrate us increase, in pro portion as their zeal for the Calhoun mania waxes hot We hope, however, that the disposition lately evinced by the friends ot the Constitution and Union, to up hold and sustain us against their nullifying efforts, will grow and strengthen in a proportionate degree, and that we will be enabled, by their countenance and as sistance, to “go ahead” in a course so disinterested as respects oursolves, and a cause so sacred as regard, the happiness and prosperity of our common country TERMS- — Three Dollars per annum in advance, or Four Dollars efterthe expiration ofthe year.—Pay ment at the end of the year w ill be considered in ad vance, if the subscriber continues tor another—if not he will be charged for the time due, Rt the rate of Four Dollars per annum.

GEORGE MERRITT Si. Co. Auraria, June77l. —16—1£ FOB. THE RECORIER AND SPY. M. 11. Gathright Esq. Dear Sir—ln a conversation with you some time bach, t recollect to have made you a pro* mise that, I would at some convenient moment, communicate to you in writing, my views of the principles of the Government of the United States, and of the States, with a view as you then stated, of presenting them to the public through the medium of your paper. I now ava it myself of a leisure moment to fulfil my pro mise, and ahhough from recent circumstan ces, 1 canno. flatter mysell that we shall agree in all the mmutia of the political warfare of (he day, yet in a proper legitimate construc tion of the great fundamental principles, upon which are based the Republican institutions of our country, I hope and trust ’in God. there will not be an essential difference of opinion between us; at least, such an one as will ha zard the integrity and stability of those institu tions. Before 1 proceed’however, to lay down what I conceive to be the fundamental princi ciples of “free government,” I must be allow ed to premise, that no government can be pro perly called A free government, that is not in accordance in all respects w ith the opinions of those who are governed; consequently, a go vernment ul'force is contrary to, and altogether incoiisistarii with the idea 1 entertain of what isment by/ree government, and can only be contended for, but by those who arrogate to themselves a superiority over their fellow men. Governments in all agps and under all cir cumstances partake somewhat of the pe uliar- Hies immediately connected wnh ihe condition ot those who are to bo governed—hem e in very dense cbrnmunifios where the more intel ligent, we |ihy, or otherwise powerful portions of ihe people, have succeeded by a long con tinued succession of usurpations to conimll the will and the actions of the whole, the prin ciples ot what is termed strong government are absolutely necessary to be resorted to, to con trol what would otherwise degenerate into a mob, ..nd produce a general state of anarchy and contusion. Such was the condition of trance at the time ot the enormities commit ted by llobespiere, nor was th'ose galan l , but mis akeii people,entirely relieved from this er ror at (be tune the . elevated Bounapar e io tho first Consulship; and afierwards by making him Emperor confered upon him more power man any King. Prince or Potentate, has ever been known ligitiHiafely to possess. But (ho circumstances connected with the discovery ui.d early settlement ol this continent, and tho subsequent adoption of the kind or class of government under which (he curly setters choose to live, were precisely opposite to those under wbicn he people ot Fiance (or any oth er > alien having an Aristocratic, or Monaichtal term ot government) were compelled io adopt such form ot government. The very nature of the circumstances by which Columbus, and his intrepid followers were prompted to the hazardous euterprize which led to ihe discove ry oi our quar er ol the Globe shows c<m< lu st vely that mey must have been po-sessi d of minds soaring tar above ihe control ot Spanish arrogance and tbroldom; tor all the opposition and want ol good faith on ihe part of the crown, could not deter them from their original design oi piosecuung toe enterprize. Os the same character must have been the subsequent et lers of ihe country, who found it ne< essary to lorm a government; coming as they had tr>>m every pan ol be civilized world, the shut kies which bound the rniiids oilheir countrymen, and caused the .irnid and week to yield a wil ling submission o tne amgant demands of tho poweriu* and strong, were thrown off, and .. ey appeared m Ims western hemisphere in till) character ot a new people, as Jrce in thought and in action, and as bouyanl in hope and in spirit, as the very air winch tney breathed, buco were the favourable circumstances under which our ancestors pursued an even uninter rupted course, perfectly m accordance wiih Uivir own teelmgs and views, until European atogatice. pointed them out as objects of oppres sion. in ihe earlier period of onr history tho mother countries extended to iheir Colontea, wi.uh were hvu nursed us children, every pa reiiial protection that ihe strongest affection, mid most extensive solicitude could subject, ana ii .d there not have been a lurking motive a. tne bottom ol the action which gave rise to loose just and rational measures, more pow erful man natural allecuon, and all lite oilier passions t..a govern the motives and actions o| man, we should yet have rem lined united to the inoiiier countries, and Enuland and Spam, would nave exhibited to the World the grand spectacle ol providing an inheritance for tms enterpnziog p<>rti n of their people, who icii opposed to cast 'neii lotsin the new world, and m return, they would nave more than been paid tor all their natural Kindness, by the ad vantages which would have flowed to t,.em mm the rich and growing comm e <>t the Co- fiii cupidity andavaiiCe, tne ueces -><r. iki maids o| Aristo racy and Mon .r< hy, prompted me motuer countries to make exacs NO.
