O N assuming the duties and responsibilities of the publication of tliu Southern Banner, the Editor.- feel themselves bound by every sense of duty, both to the former patrons ol the Athenian, and llinae of tl.Ut friends whose aid they confidently anticipate—in order to retain Ihc one and merit the othcr-to lay before them a lair and candid, but succinct expnsilton of the prin ciples by which they are to be governed and directed in the prosecution of their arduous and responsible un dertaking. They do not think it neccssarv at this late day—a day which la shedding its light an<f glory, witli such general and invigorating 'power over our whole body politic, to enter elaborately and minutely into u detail of their political views anil opinions. Indeed, tu do so, lynuld lie virtually offering an insult ta tho good sense of tho community. To profess tho mint of the blessed founder of our holy religion, is in itself a attfti- cient guarantee of the principles ol the genuine Chris tian, so do they hold it only necessary to own nnd pro- teas the nanus of Ilia'three great apoatlea of correct principles, in order to satisfy an enlightened commu nity of tho nature of their political failh, and the innvi tablo tendency of (heir future practice. The Southern Banner,then, will rest hereafter for support and patron age, on the broad, firm, and immutable rock nfRepnti licanistn. All Ihoscpuieandhallowcddoctrineswliicl' originally flashed upon the world from the pen of a Jtflernn—which have been cherished snd handed down to us by our venerated Crawford, and professed so in flexibly, and so triumphantly practised, in many rei. necta, by our favorite Troup, will in it find a champion, however humble, yet of stern and uncompromising in tegrity. Various causes will, they believe, tend to render the Banner hereafter, (anil they any it without intending tho least reflection on the course pursued by their wor thy predecessor, the late proprietor nf the Athenian,) of more general interest and of greater valtio to the party, than it has been of Into, and none of which seams to them, so well calculated to produce this result, as the opposition which will be shortly exerted, in this place, to theirpress, and to their principles. Thisiden they do not deurecatc, but rather cherish, knowing that nn honorable nnd liberal eppetf(fen,wfll tend to stim ulate them tothe performance' of their duty, whilst llicv liopo it will rally to their support, their friends, and lint friends of tho party, for whole interest and proaperitv they arc determined to dovate every honorable exeitloii. The editors have engaged among the r correspon dents, several gentlemen of established Literary an-l Political character,whose communications will licrcut ter servo to enrich snd ndom the columns of th" Southern Banner. And with regard to tho other de partments ofthe paper, they can but add, that their best exertions will bo devoted to render them useful and mousing to their patrons and rnadrra. Great promises are, however, at beat, but cheap commodities, and of course they fool themselves Nmn-I to say as little, and prmnisn as charily as possible; but in launching Inrllt their little barque upon the stormy waves of public "pinion, they must trust alone to their skillful pilotage for meriting, and winning for it, mootings sale and snug in tho hcir'iof their follow - citizens.
