PROPOSALS
For publishing anew weekly Newspaper at
AUrartu Georgia, to be entitled
®HS HSCORBEE,
AND
Spy in the West.
IJV the publication of this Paper, the Editor
will from time to time, furnish the public
with all the information he may be enabled to
procure, in relation to the progress of the Mines.
In addition to which he will shortly be furnished
with a series of Essays, written by a Literary
Gentlemen, who have taken a Geological view
of this country, in which will be shewn the
complete arrangement of the different Strata of
earths and rocks, forming this interesting section
of country, and in what kind Gold is most usu
ally found. The Editor will endeavor at all
tunes to procure Irani Mineralogists, literary
men,.and practical observers, such information,
as will keep up a constant investigation of the
various minerals found in this country.
In the way of Miscellaneous matter he will
make the best selections in bis power both of u
domestic and foreign nature.
As regards the political course of this paper,
the Editor will endeavor to pursue a liberal
course, keeping at all times bis columns open
to the discusiou of political subjects, which are
or mav he of interest to the country.
In relation to his own political opinions, he
considers them to he such ns have been main
tained in the Southern States, from the adop
tion of the Federal Constitution down to the pre
sent time. He believes that Federal encroach
ments, should be guarded against with vigilance
and repelled with promptness. Yet however in
contending for the Rights of the States, he can
not go to the extraordinary and dangerous ex
tent of some of the politicians in a sister State ;
because he believes it would ultimately end in
the destruction of the Government and alllts
Rights.
11 is opinions however he considers as nothing
more than the opinions of any other individual,
he will therefore endeavor to act the part of a
faithful Journalist without being subservient to
the views of any party leaving Lis paper open
to the investigation or truth, and all interesting
subjects by all.
The first number of this paper will appear in
a few weeks. • ,
Terms —Three Dollars per annum payable
in advance or Three Dollars and fifty cents at
the end of the year.

Agent for the above named institution —

upon the noble generosity of an enlightened
public for the success of his mission.
The education of our children, next to their
salvation, claims decidedly our first attention.
But many parents are prevented for want of
means, from bestowing upon their sons such
cultivation as would render them a blessing to
our common country. It is the great object of
“ Labor Schools” to meet the exigency, and
to place education within the reach of the most
indigent, at the same time affording the sons of
the opulent an opportunity to educate both
rnind and body together, in doingwhich, they
are prepared for the practical uses of human
life, and cease to be driven asunder from the
laboring classes of the community, by petty
jealousies and smothered animosities. Here
they will easily cultivate those corresponding
sympathies which will enable them to approach
each other with looks of kindness, and form a
compact based upon republican equality and
the interchange of mutual offices of courtesy
and goodwill. Volumes might be written in
favor of this plan of education which is so rap
idly spreading over the land, but at present I
shall suffice it to say, that so soon as 1 return
from Florida, l will punctually attend as fol
lows, for the purpose of enlarging on this in
teresting subject, and calling upon the liberality
of our citizens iu support of the noble enter
prize.

PROSPECTUS OF THE
STATE RIGHTS’ SENTINEL..
PUBLISHED IN AUGUSTA, GEORGIA, *
By Augustas B. jLongstreet-
TO-DAY the North American Gazette
changes its name, its Editor and its po
litical principles. Henceforth, it will he the
advocate of the doctrines contained in the Pre
amble and Resolutions of the State Rights
Meeting, at MdiedgevilJe, on the 13th Novem
ber last. Those who are not acquainted with the
Preamble and Resolutions referred to, are in
formed —That they denounce, in unqualified
terms, the well known Proclamation and Force
Bill : They re-ussert, the principles of the Vir
ginia and Kentucky Resolutions ot ’97, in their
plain, obvious, and primitive .-. use, unobscured
by the sophistry of modern i i-ueralists, and un
impaired by the strength-wast ing refinements of
hare-hearted republicans: They uphold State
Sovereignty in a sensible form, anti with intel
ligible attributes: .They maintain that the Gen
eral Government derives its powers from a com
pact between Sovereign Stales; that these
powers are limited “ by the plain sense and in
tention of the instrument constituting that com
pact; and that in case of a deliberate, palpa
ble, and dangerous exercise of other powers not
granted , it is the right and duty of the State
to interpose for arresting the progress of the
evil within their respective limits; and that
they have the right “ to judge as well of infrac
tions of the Constitution, as of the mode and
measure of redress.
There are the principels of the State Rights’
Purty of Georgia,” the principles of Jefferson,
and the principles of this gazette. We espouse
them because we find them blended with all the
original elements of our Government; and be
cause they are admirable-in theory, and still
more admirable iu practice. We depreciate
their antagonist doctrins; because, their promi
ses have even been —Consolidation ; and their
fruits—dissentions, usurpation, injustice and op
pression. Their first ten years’ reign, produced
the Alien and Sedition Laws—and they fell,
The last ten years’ reign, have brought the
country to the verge of civil war; clothed the
President with dictatorial power, exhibited his
troops, on the march from Stale to State, in me
nacing array— and they reign on !
In this state of things, it becomes every man
who has the welfare of his country at heart, to
consider what he cap do to redeem her from
disgrace, and to rescue her from speedy thssolu
tion. YVe believe that we cannot better direct
our time and labor to this object, than by using
our honest endeavors to bring back the people
tliQ D Qpiikiiotuamm 1. A >y Cm*
To this end, we take the State Rights’ Sen
tinel incharge, and earnestly solicit the aid of
all who Brink with us upou this deeply inter
esting subject.
As we believe there is an inseparable con
nexion between virtue and happiness, vice and
misery; whether considered in reference to bu
dies-politic,or to individuals; it will be our cease
less endervor, to impress this truth, upon the
minds of the people at large, and to make it, if
possible, the leading maxim of the party to
which we belong. All institutions and associa
tions, therefore, which have for their object the
improvement of the moral condition of our fel
low-citizens, will find a warm supporter in the
Editor of this paper; and all well written essays,
tending to the same object, shall be welcomed
to our columns.
The State Rights’ Sentinel shall be ai
independent paper, or it shall cease to be. It
will pay a blind subservience to no party; it
will support the intentional errors of none ; but
it will not visit the errors of individuals upon
the pprty, nor desert the party, for occosionnl
errors. When the party which it now advo
cates, shall depart from the Jeffersonian princi
ples, this gazette will depart from them.
No pains will be spared to make the Senti
nel instructing and interesting to all classes of
readers ; through other business, of the first im
portance, forbids me to promise much for a
month or two to come.
Our Printing materials are entirely new, and
well selected, and we are well supplied with
operatives : we may therefore promise a speedy
and handsome execution of all Job Work which
may he entrusted to us.
TERMS:
The State Rights’ Sentenel will be pub
lished once a week ultil the Ist of February
next, and twice a week afterwards—Weekly
paper, three dollars per annum, if paid in ad-j
vance: four if pnid at the end of the year—
Semi-weekly paper, five, if paid in advance, and
six if paid at the end of the year.

our institutions are founded, and will he em
phatically the advocate of a C heap Government.
8. It will also bt opposed to man worship %
the bane of republics, and it will oppose cor

servants, to whatever party they may profess to
