' TO OUR?ATUONS. We feel pleasure in presenting the Sa vannah Republican to its Patrons this , ‘ day, in an enlarged form, and an entirely new dress, and no ptiins have been omitted ncin. We most sincerely hope that we will continue in the atlVctions of our fel low-citizens, and humbly trust, by the blessings of heaven, that our exertions will he useful to our country. During our editorial labors wc have seen our beloved country contending for her Rights and liberties in u war with n powerful and arrogant nation—ami,thanks lie to the Almighty Ruler of the Universe, wc have been permitted to behold her tri umphant, maugre all the machinations of her internal enemies ! Now she reposes in the armso" peace, with commerce, ma nufactures and the concomitant benefits resulting from their successful and increas ed operations. The American canvass spreads its bosom to the breeze of every sen; and our flag commands respects and admiration from the people of every clime to which it is extended. The produce aiul Wealth of every civilized nation is flowing in upon us through the channels of our commerce, while at home the husband- to place it on a footing of respectability, us to typographical execution am! appear- "™ u 18 Vcreashig his ability to furnish aacc,whhes ami expectations of its friends and worthy of the cause and principles it supports. ^ * The Republican was established at aa epoch which loudly called upon cveryRc- publican to do his duty. It was a struggle between Federalism and Democracy, and required all tlio energies of the latter to regain that ascendancy, from which it had been driven by apostates from *76 priuci pies. A benevolent Provideuce, which delights in the liberty and happiness of hu man creatures, gave the victory to the people, and once more announced to the world that they were the sovereign. To wards this revolution the Republican con tributed its quota, and lias not sinccuttered a sentiment at variance With the cause. As it Was then, it ia^now, and will be so long as it continues uuder its present aus pices. It has but one course to pursue, and that is a straight forward one, to the confidence and governed good of Demo cratic Republicans. It lias not, as yet, by any intentional aberration from the good old cause, forfeited its claim to cither, and God forbid it should in any of its fu ture operations. It will contribute to the last gasp to support men of the people, and measures in which the people only can be interested. It will promote no man’s aggrandizement at their expencc, or ad vocate any man who has not uniformly, consistently and bravely adhered to and supported the principles of that revolution, which put down, tho scoffers of the people, and would-be imators of trans-atlantic go- Ithas no faith in the necessity Vernments.- the iicce-saury articles of produce for the augmentation of trade.

Jeffer- eoN, Madison and Monroe are fair exam ples of what can be effected by Democra tic rulers. Why then trust others who at any time endeavor to supplant them T These are among the leading articles of the creed which obtained friends and pa trons for this paper, and it is a creed which will still be found scattered through its columns. t In the suggestions and strictures whicli have filled our editorial department for the last thirteen years (the time which we have had it under our guidance,) We have meant to be honest and open ; true to our fixed principles, and to the cause of our country, yet it is impossible that these have given universal satisfac tion—“ For that very zeal which results from our own temperaments, and our own conviction of the necessity of warmly sup porting the holy cause of freedom,” men of cooler feeling will blame as a zeal, too jMkrdcnf, while others consider our very ardor coolness, from a superior san guineness. In this case, then, we have no resort, except in the candor of our pa trons. • “ What is wclliricant, we are sure will be well received," and that assurance quiets our apprehensions, and enlivens our hopes. We flatter ourself that, few will accuse us of having intentionally swerved in thought, word or deed from our duty, as a Republican Editor. "VVe have doubtless often erred, but our conscience does not upbraid us with haying wilfully gone astray. Wc are also gratified in believing that our political opponents (many of whom wo love, and respect) have little oc casion to reproach us with descending to the propagiiti on of calumny, substituting inveefivo for argument, or wantonly wounding the private feelings of indivi duals. At the same time they will allow that we have not shrunk from a fair and open contest with them, nor hesitated to declare our real sentiments through fear of their frowns, or desire of tlieir favors. As sentinel on the ramparts of liberty, we shall contrive to watch the insiduous foe who may attempt to annihilate Cur repub lican energies, which gave birth to our country.

Olincta, having passed over to him with 2,300men.—1,200were in Pa nama ready to embark, and a division of 3,000 had sailed from Valparaiso to join him, making his aggregate force of 17^700 men. Callao was nt that time rigidly blockaded. Bolivqr was at Tmxillo, and, the Spanish Gen. Ganternc, in Lima; the distance of 45 lqagubs.
