When we issued the first number, our list was small, and the fatal procla mation which appeared three woc/.-s afterwards, compelled ns to oppose the measures of Andrew Jackson whose popularity gave Ins name a tnlis- manic influence throughout tho Slato, and more than a hundred subscribers withdrew their names.

Accordingly Col. Howard called on Cnpt. Anderson of Montgomery county, in - this Itu(o, nnd said to liiti), “Anderson, wo ought to hike that piece of artillery,” poin ting to it, “for it annoys us very much*" Anderson, without wuitiug for orders; ■iiHrcited to thu 111U7.7.I0, followed by n filo of men, and fixing his espontoon in the ground with a sudden leup, stood npon the cannon, and drove his espontoon through the rniin who *as just prepared to apply his ma(ch to the touch hole.

FuahTOrt rules the world, and a most ty rannical mistress siiq is—compelling peoplw to submit to the most inrouveim ut things imaginable, for fashion’s sake. She pinches our feet with tight shoes, dr chokes its with a fight neck-handkerchief, or squoezos the breath out of our body' by ■tight lacing; she. makes people sit up by night when thoy ought to bo in bed, nnd keeps them in hod in tho morning, when they ought to be up und a doing. She makes it vulgar to wait upon one’s self, and genteel to livo idle and useless. Sho mhkes people visit when they would rallied stay at home, eat when (hey urn not hungry, and drink when they are not thirs ty. She invades our pleasure, and interrupts our business. Sho compels the people (0 dress gaily whether upon thoir own property or that of others; whether agreeable to the word of God, or the dictates of pride. She ruins health and produces sickness— destroys life, nnd occasions prematude death. She makes foolish parents, inValids of 'children, and servants of all. She is a tormentor of conscience, despoil er of morality, and nn enemy of religion, and no one can he her companion, and en joy either. She is a d espot of the highest grade, full ol intrigue, and cunning, and; yet hus- bauds, wives, fathers, mothers, sons,, daughters, and servants, black and white, voluntarily haYe become her obedient ser, vants anil staves, and vie with one unother- lo see who shall be most obsequious.
