which I was so intimately acquainted There said I to
my friend, pointing to a small grass covered mound, that

female who once where • life and joy were hers’ was all
that could be imagined or desired of female lorelines*
and beauty* Young, fair and virtuous—innocenre beam
ed in her mild blue eyes, and the blushing rose of health
bloomed in native purity upon her lovely cheek! Her
iged parents doated upon her with all ibe affectionate
fondness with, which our natures are susceptible—and
made it their sole study and care to rear and instruct her
in all the ways of virtuous rectitude, that in the devious
meandering* through lite "he might perform that part in
society, which with her beauty and accomplishments she
was so well calculated to adorn. She did not possess,
nor pride bersclf in those kind of coquet is h airs of out
ward show that grace the city belle—au> those soft inno

additional charms to the female^ex. About this time,

’marriage by a gentleman who was in every r< sped worthy
of her band And in the gleaming warmth of his pas

their union set apart. But,

have usually' demanded; yet, as my" funner professimis
ere held with unabated attachment, fi.’^ there being na
neutral ground, in the conflicting and vanv'J sentimeiifo,-
ivhit-h daily arise, as to both men and m asti.'^^'it fol
lows, that I should not only make an exposition Oi" my'po-
liticsf tenets, but also, that they should be boliUv set lot tii,
and fearlessly defended. 1 have ever indulged an anient
devotion to Republicanism, as the term was understood
by its advocites io’98—a sacred regard to the let
ter snd spirit of the Constitution, nnd « determined and
fixed hostility to every thing bk:! constructive or impli*^
powers—an extension of < qual justice to all parties—that
all pow*r is inherent in and derived from the people, as
the original source and nl'imate tribunal—the indvprud
ence and distinct-sovereignty of lhe States, and tbeir con
federacy as a Union, under a government limited and ac
tually defined in its nowers. These are the prominent
articles of my p ditical foi h. and believing in their correct
ness, shall abide hy them m-erery tr*al.
Arnougthe many topics of depp inti rest that agitate tbe
people of all classes, is the extreme of unwarrantable go
vernmental influence on the industry and resources of the
country, and the unconstitutional expenditure of the pub
lic treasure to obj*icts of Internal Improvement—mens-
tires too frequently destitute of grnerai benefit, und often
times marked by a spirit of pirtialitv, selfishness and in
justice. It would be criminal for one “seated on (i^e
w itch-tower,” ami in the exercise cf the duties nh;eh
belong to the Press, to observe, with callous ird.ff r- nee,
I the caases-whiefi hare produced, and the effects winch
have resulted from the latitudinsry construction of the
Constitution. The dangerous consequences which may .
eosue, are already indicated, by the excited feelings of the
country. I am deeply impressed that wrong has been
done, and evil tolerated—yet, with a spirit of forbearance,
it would be better for the oppressed 10 hear their evils
whilst they are tolerable, than “fly to those they know
no' of.”
The present is on era in the history of our government,
distinguished for improvement. The iovt r of bis coun
try beholds it on its ‘‘return march” to its original purity ,
and principles. Already has the distinguished head «-f
the government, said—“The successful operation of the
federal system can only be. preserved hy confinu g it to the *
few and simple, but yet important objr cts for which it was
designed. This is a guarantee, that the purpose of the
present Executive of the Union and his supporters, is an
< 8’>rt to reslofe the Constitution to its or>gt>:iil healthy '
and unimpaired condition. I am happy to accord wi ; h
he A imini.*;ration and its friends in the wise and weil .
directed course which is pursued by them.
Tbe time was, when to dissent from tbe measures of
any of the prominent parties o( our state, by an attach
ment to any of the others, or to their hen distinguish*d
.>rg .ns, implied a hostility and acrimony which frequent
ly bad no bounds, and rendered 44 Wisdom, Justice ovd
Moderation,” an empty an absurd profession. Th. tim* a
and circumstances hare now become more congenial to
better feeling*; the perplexing difficulties whicbhave sur-
ruun ted us—those emanating abroad, and fost* red at
home, hare subsided, «ith ihe aeluiowlcdg-.ment of our
rights, the successful accomplishment of nearly oil the
ends which we have contended for. I can review n jr
past coarse in relation to state afftirs, wi'h cheerinsr a; .
probation; my fitters efforts wjlt be intimately connect'd
with the past; • n(1 it is hoped, wi‘hout offence to an ad
verse parey The «ri ; er does not believe in the infalli
bility of roan, nor in their perfection as a party; it vs ; I
therefore be roy endeavor to support worthy men, nn i
approve such orthodox measures as may manatc frorn
genuine patri .tism and unadulterated Republicanism—‘
such measures as wiil best answer the emis of our free
government, and of our State’s interest:—such men ad
will “defend the rights of the People, tbe Sovereignty of
the States, and tbe Constitutional authority of the Union,
against all encroachments.”
It shall be my studious endeavor, to render the “/ntefe
ligenrer n an Agricultural and Mercantile vehicle 4 ,—-
to effect at, I shall hasten to pos-css myself nf all (h.6
necessary materials which these ample sobjec s fore
nisb, to nnfoid every species of information which will
be thought to instruct, to interest, and to please. It is
believed, that (he mutual conjunction of interest, between
the merchant and planter, cannot fail to render accepta
ble to one. whatever may benefit the olhef. My efforts
timll be used to procure the earliest and most useful mere
cantile information, and lay it before the public; and it
will be my desire to go into Rural Afftirs, andgirotr the
ahoicest und best offerings for my Agricultural readers.
