Ky to the establishment of the “Times and State !
Kjhfs Advocate,” to be conducted upon the chaste
K rj.iDCi.TER.vTED principles of the Uepublican
Hrt The rapid current, which is drifting the dis-
Htnilod ship of State upon the breakers of Consoli
Kk>:i and Despotism, must be conquered, or its
Hadlongforce will overwhelm our lofty and bcauti-
HArk, in which is rejiosited the Iloly Covenant of
Hr Union.
■lie believes that our Union is strictly Federal—
Hit it is a defensive Alliance, formed to shield and
He. i nsfmm roKiuoN invasion, and to facilitate our
Hcvimirse with other nations.
Hlfc believes that the covenant of Union between I
H States should be literally interpreted, and the j
Hrit in which it was formed strictly adhered to,-
He the cscrpatiot of power not granted, or the 1
Hhveksion of the obvious intent of such as are:
Hssferred to the emuruon agent of the States, in j
He* minutely described and worded with the utmost ■
Ixislou oflanguage, will change qur government,
Hm one of freedom, simplicity and equality into the j
Hist tyrannous, complicated and unseemly Desp --
Hmthat ever defaced the Globe.
Hllc believes that w henever that Covenant is bro-j
Hi anil inuti.atcd in its vital and essential organs by
Hm »;contumacious,faithless and unprovoked If-
Hlatici and when we are wantonly and brutally
Spared with military subjection by its enemies and
Hractors, that it is time to break the fetters of Sla
ngy and to redeem our Liftcrties.
Hh- believes tliat each State, being “free, sovereign
having no common umpire, must
H ssarily decide for herself, when the emergency
may impose upon her the dreadful and !
necessity of breaking the band of Union be-1
the States which compose it.
Hln his effort to sustain the Eights of the States and i
of Freedom, he must unavoidably con-
not only many of the past measures of the pre-
Hit administration, hut oppose every other, based j
the doctrines of the Federal party. No man j
Union has ever before dared to assume the j
latitude of powers for the Federal government,,
Dragon ever ready to devour our liber
as the present Chief Magistrate of the Union, j
calls upon the true Republican party of the j
Hts of Georgia to sustain him in this effort to res- j

PKOftpSAIiS
For publishing in ihe town of Columbus, Georgia, a
V.- * j •* to bft cntitlod
tty a an. t’liae.
IN issuing the Pmsuectus of anew paper,
it is difficult lor the Editor to give, in tho
small spacer assigned by custom as the proper
limit, even n synopsis of his views.and opin
ions upon subjects intended lo be embraced
in his proposed publication. Nor, further
man the bare meirtion of tiie general princi
ples bv which he wiil be governed, is it, in
our opinion very necessary that he should.
Ilia publication must undergo the test of pe
rusal, and stat’d or fail upon its merits or de
merits. This is the only ground upon which
we can u ith safety base a judgment. Genius
is often frittered away into frivolity. Talents
is often encrusted by the corrosion of indo
lence. And the brightest, name is not always
a sure guarantee of the faithful performance
of an undertaking. Under this conviction
wo intend that our words here shall he few,
barely giving to the reader an outline of our
ticsign an<Line leading features which shall
characterize onr publication.
We propose in Ihe first place to devote a
considerable portion of this paper to the polite
literature ot the day, arid for this purpose shall
make arrangements to rccerve all the stand
ard periodicals of the United States, with
several ol the best publications of Europe,
ihe utmost care find-circumspection will he
used in making our selections; and although
the Editor cannot promise to bring to his aid
a largd share of talents, or an extraordinary
taste, he pledges himself to the exercise of an
unremitting industry and to the saving of no
expense, that inay (end to make this depart
ment interesting
Polities also will engage a portion of the
columns cf this paper, at least so far as to give
the reader a clear view of what is ostensibly
transpiring from week to week in the politi
cal w*rld around hnn. Behind the scenes
the Editor docs not expect often to get; and
as to the “dirty ropes and pullies” of iutrigiw
and management', he has but little taste lor
them, and shall meddle as little with them; or
il he do, it will be merely lo drag from con
cealment the foul work goitig'on, and expt s
to public gaze and exGcriitiort a ruehinerv ~* t
in motion nineteen tim< s out of ttvi trtv ;i r
the advantage of th.i individual am to tl a
public.
Wo believe in the orthodoxy df -State Sov.
ereignly, and that ail power which has not
been expressly imparled to thd General Gov-’
eminent by the Constitution has he 11 i. -e rv
ed lo tlie Stales or to the people. \Yc shall
be governed by this principle. We believe
lurthrr that power is continually (ending from
the many to the few. To counteract such
li.'iidrncy,-and t» keep t'repower in the hands
of the people—to thwart grasping ambition—
to foil tyranny—and to secure the continu
ance of the Government in the spirit and
practice of a pure, democracy, shall ever be
our honest, however feeble effort. A’e be
lieve that next lo making fine part of the U
nion tributary to another, or an abrogation of
the Constitution altogether, either by liter or
in practice, the dissolution of the confedera
cy would be one of the greatest evils which
could befall our beloved country. IYe shall
therefore endearor to inculcate a habitual
reverence for the Union, and lor the laws of
the General Government enacted and admin
istered in the spirit of the Constitution, and
shall lend our as.-istcnce to frown away every
attempt to alter our present form of Govern
•nent for ‘Might ar.d transient causes.” The
Uovermnont was framed in a spirit of com
promise; and a spirit of liberality alone can
keep it together. The States have, by the
Constitution, transferred a portion of their
sovereignty to the General Government, and
such sovereignty, so transferred, should be as
strictly guarded, as highly Venerated, and ns
sacredly secured bv them to the General
Government, as they should be jealous of en
croachments upon tne sovereignty which they
have reserved to themselves.
One or more good article s on practical ag
rieulture will be inserted in each week’s pub
cation of the Mercury, by which wc hope to
afford many valuable hints and suggestions
to the observant Planter. Tho best agricul
tural publications will-be takvin to aid us in
this department. 4
The Moral and Jteligious reader too shall
not be disappointed in looking into our pub
lication. Wc shall devote a column or more
o! each paper to these departments, being
especially carefully to derive our selections
from the purest sources and avoiding all sec
tarian’jiolemies.
M*t shall also devote a portion of onr paper
to thoMadics, under the head of “The Editor’s
Evenings.” But we cannot at this time tell
our fair headers (and we hope to have many
of them) how we fill up this department,
further than to say it shall be chaste and live
ly like their-pretty selves, untainted
“By one immortal, one-corrupted thought
One line which, dying, we might wish to Idut.”
In addition to th. se general divisions, the
paper will contain a condensed account of
the current nens of the woex, bath foreign
and iloigestt;; Lie prjpes current? the arrivals
and departures of steamboats at and from Co
lumbus, with the names of the consignees;
well written communications; marriages,
deaths,&c. together with such advertisements
as his fnppds may- be pleased to favor the Ed
tor with and sueii asJjnuoay from
week to week think proper to insert under
the Editorial head.
Tnis |»aper will be published on a sheet of
the largest size, with good type, at three dol
lars per annnm payable in advance, or four
dollars payable at the end of the year. The
first paper to be issued about the first of July
