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.
