When it i» considered ho* extensive and pow
erful an influence a tree Pres* possesses, in un
provine or corrupting the moral*; refining or vi
tiating the taste; exalting or degrading the charac
ter, promoting or counteracting the politicil wel
fare of a state, he who assumes the manaeement
rare or a sure, uc —~„
of a public paper, is almost overawed by the
weiAt of responsibility he incurs. The people,
mindful that the same responsibility devolves i
them, (inasmuch at a paper owes its existence
their patronage) will require to be informed-of
tlie character and object of The Giosciax, before
they can feel justified in giving it their support.—
In obedience to this just demand, the following
exposition is candidly and willingly submitted-

The constitution of die United States,
‘■’the text of every man’s political creed. We need
not ransack the archives of Greece and ttvmc. ooT,
tks Solon, visit distant countries in search of po
litical knowledge—he is the best statesman who
best understands our constitution. It is the mas-
ter-pieee, the no plot ultra of political wisdom—«
is the rock on which we have founded the temple
of liberty: the rains have come, and the winds
have beat upon it, but it still stands. Certain
-amendments of (he constitution have bcenpropos-
«d, by sincere patriots andenlightenedstotesmen,
cf both part:-s. Their opinions may be correct,
• and the right to amend is unquestionable, yet it
is to be deeply regretted that the period ofamend-
ments is not put, as. by creating a doubt of its
perfection, they tend continually to impair Us
Sanctity at»d enfeeble its authority. ,...
But let it never be (brguttea that, the stability
•wnd perpetuity of a republic does not depend, ex-
eludvelvq on the excellence of ita constitution.-
If the people, (from whose sovereignty emanates
all authority—executive, legislative and judicial)
be not sufficiently enlighten d to discern the wis
dom; nor sufficiently virtuous to appreciate the
blessings of our government, they are continually
at the mercy of their delegated ni era. Inasmuch
- as the people are the supreme directors of politi
cal affairs, they should at least be acquainted with
the constitution, which is the very foundation ol
their freedom and the warrant ot their politics,

vers andleamed men! A republic nay exist,long
after the corruption of its morals, but there is n..
antidote agaiRst the liei.umuing and deadening el-
feet* of ignorance —The book of Constitution*
and the Bible should occupy the arae shelf of the
■farmer, for, next to lux Gou, Ins country demands
liis consideration and love.
Uut it nuit be remembered, that it is necessary
to fortify the body politic, not only against inter-
nal corruption and disorder, but also to defend 11
against the enemies by which it is surrounded—
The tree of our liberty must not only be able to
stand alone, cat, 1'ke the wel.-rooted oak, to with
stand the tempests of extraneous power. A»
ours is die only republic on earth; as she has ex
alted herself in the Imdst of governments which
are naturally and essentially her enemies, her per
manent security must depend on Iter physical
•strength. Hence the necessity of naval and mihta
vy forces These should be just competent—not
bo great as to be djngerotu to ourselves, nor so
smail as to be harmless to our enemies. In medio
twissimus iiiv. On this subject the American
statesman should exert the greatest sagacity and
circumspection. As real sovereignty consists in

power to ru.e in their own hands—hence a well

. When war is constitutionally declared, that
man is *n er my to his country, or at least a
worthless friend, wlto will not aid the administra
tion in defending it* honor and independence.—
Our political exigence is then assailed, and the
weightiest matters of political controversy, are
.nothing in comparison with that momentous stake.
After die enemy has struck a blow into the bosom
of our country, to hesitate is to be lost. We
•must not only promptly contribute our personal,
•but also our pecuniary aid to the government. It
lis true, a permanent oyttem ol direct taxes shorn*.
Hiever be resorted to—because they are intrinsical
ly odious to the people—because they arevexa
•tious fc oppressive—because they multiply the un
conditional supporters of a ruling power, and be
cause they are unnecessary, inasmuch as our ordi
nary revenues are adequate to the support of the
ordinary expenses of our government. But when
our country, and all that is dear to freemen, is in
imminent danger, it would be a matter of aston
ishment if a citizen of this republic, could ever
object to a tax in any shape, or to any necessary
amount. "Nam neque quies gentium sine armis;
neque arm*sinestipendiis; neque stipendia sine tbi-
botis haberi queunt.” The bold and efficient tax
ation of the people to support the expence* of what
has been emphatically styled the "second war of
independence," will beheld in perpetual memo-
rv and imitated by futdre adraintr [rations. under
similar circumstances. But let it ever be (as it
then was) the ultima ratio of republican legiala-
t0 ”o long as the existing administration maintains
the republican principles and pursues the judi
ciouStoiessures which are now settled and ic-
knowled, it will meet with the unanimous support
of every true friend to the country. The best ef
fort* of the Gsoaoiix shall be dedicated to the
support of such principles, such measures and such
rulers. But let it be distinctly understood, that
the Gxoboias can never condescend to become
an unqualified adherent to any party. The into
rest , of the people shall never be sacrificed to the
ambition of a few. .
For many vears past, this republic has beeni un
happily divided into two parties, each of which
has accused the other of entertaining designs and
pursuing measures, ruinous to the welfare and
. dangerous to the liberties of the people. But all
•this time our country has. been marching, with
-riant-strides, to wealth, grandeur and renown:
exhibiting an unparallcd example of precocious
preatness. In the very cradle of her infancy she

trv It would be improper to dismiss this sub-
without adverting to the happy termination
and glorious consequences of the last war. It
has produced a moral effect upon this nation,
which every one sees and fed*. ?It has proved
the valor and strength of the people; it has test-
ed the conservative and recuperative energies of
our government; it has resuscitot^ the languish
