M •* RBXADUKE J. SLADE
For publishing, in the town oJ\Wacon, a week*
ly Newspaper to be called
SLADE’S AGRICULTURAL AND
MERCANTILE INTELLIGENCER.
HfV recent relinquishment of a participation in the
^•'■1 editorial labors ol nu old and well eatablishcd
journal, would seem to require hut few preliminary re
marks, in the prouosed undertaking, wero it not that
they are usually demanded by public expectation, and
sanctioned by customs As there is no good reason
why this “ time-honored observance” should be disre
garded in the present instance, I shall submit an epi
tome of my piuciples, and the course which sha<! be
observed in conducting a new journal. The object of
the proposed publication beiug purely what iis title
implies, supercedes the necessity of tliut political com*
uientarv, w hich the doctrines ol the day have usually
demanded; yet, os my former professions nro held with
unabated attachment, and thero being no neutral
ground, in the conflicting and varied sentiments which
daily arise, us to both men and measures—it follows,
'.hut I should not only make an exposition of iny poli
tical tenets, but also, tliut they should he boldly act
forth and fearlessly defended. I have ever indulged
an uident devotion to Republicanism, as tho term waa
understood bv its advocates in ’98—a sacred regard to
the letter and spirit ol the Constitution, and a deter
mined and fixed hostility to every tiling like construc
tive or implied powers—an extension of equal justice
to all pai tics—that all pow er is inherent in and derived
from the people, as the original source and ultimate
tribunal—— (lie independence and distinct sovereignty
of the States, and their confederacy as a Union, un»
der a government limited and actually defined in its
lowers. These are the prominent articles of my po-
ilical faith, and believing in their correctness, shall
abide by them in every trial.
Among the many topics of deep intcrcstthat agitato
the people of all classes, is the exercise of unwarran
table governmental influence on th« industry and re.
sources of t he country, and the unconstitutional ex
penditure of the public treasure to objects of Internal
Improvement—imnsures too frequently destitute of
general benefit, and oftentimes marked by a spirit of
partiality, selfishness, and injustice. It would be cri
minal for one “ seated on the watch tower,” and in the
exercise of the duties which belong to the Press, to
observe, with caliwus indifference, the causes which
have produced, and tho eff-cts which have resulted
from the latitudinary construction of the Constitution.
The dungorous consequences which may ensue, arc
already indicated, by the excited feelings of tho coun
try. I am deeply impressed that wrong has been done,
and evil tolerated—yet, with a spirit of forbearance, it
would be belter for the oppressed to bear their exile
whilst they uro tolerable, than “ fly to those they know
not of.”
The present is an era in the history of our govern
ment, distinguished for improvement. The lover of
his country beholds it on us “ return march,’* to ita
original purity and principles. Already has tho dis
tinguished head of the government, said—“The suc
cessful operution of (lie federal system can only bo
preserved by confining it lo tho few and simple, but
yet important objects for which it was designed.” Thtf
is a guarantee, that the purpose of tho present Execu
tive ol the Union and his supporters, is an effort to re
store the Constitution to ils original healthy and unim
paired condition. I am happy to accord with the Ad
ministration and its friends in the wise and well direct
ed couise which is purstteil by them.
The tunc was, when to dissent from tho measures of
any of the prominent parties of our state by an attach
ment to any of the others, or to their t.icn distinguish
ed organs, implied a hostility and acrimony whicn fre
quently had no bounds, and rendered “ Irisdum, Jus•
lice and Moderation,’* an empty and absurd profession.
Tlio times and circumstances have now become inort
congenial to better feelings; tho porplexing difficulties
which have surrounded us—those emanating abroad,
and fostered at home, have subsided, with tho acknow
ledgement of our rights, the accomplishment of.nearly
all the ends which wc have contended for.,. I can re
view my past course in relation to 6tate affairs, with
cheering approbation; my futuro efforts will be inti
mately connected with the past; and it is hoped, with
out offence to an adverse party. Tho writer doea not
believe in the infallibility of man, nor in their perfeo*
lion ns a parly; it will therefore be my endeavor to
support worthy men, and approve such orthodox mea
sures as may emanate from genuine patriotism and
unadulterated Republicanism—such measure* as will
best answer the ends of our free government, and of
ourState’s interest:—such men us will “defend tho
rights of the People, the Sovereignty of the State*, und
the Constitutional authority of tho Union, againat all
encroachments.”
It shall bo my studious endeavor, to render the 11 hu
Idlif'tnctr" an Agricultural and Mercantile vehicle
to effect it, I shall hasten to possess myself of all the
necessary materials which these ample subjects fur
nish, to unfold every species of information which will
bo thought to instruct, to interest, and to please. It
is believed, tliut the mutual conjunction of interest, be
tween the merchant and planter, cannot fail to render
acccpfubic to one, whatever may benefit the other.
My effort* shall be used to procure the earliest and
most uKcfiil mercantile information, and lay it before
the public; and it will be my desire to go into Rural
Affairs, und garner the choicest and beet offerings foi
iny Agricultural readers.
