LIBERTY AND THE UNION FOREVER—THE PRINCIPLES OF WASHING TON, JEFFERSON AND JACKSON. IN proposing to establish in the city of New Orleans, ft now pnp>-r un der the above title, we me encouraged by the glowing ano magnifi cent prospci.iH whi< h seem to hover around this mighty Emporium of the West, pointing its destinies io a summit of commercial grandeur, to which no other city in the world can ever expect to reach. Nor are these prospects confined alone to New Orleans. When we take into view the numerous wide-spread, and extended arms of the noble Missis «ippi, winding themselves through an extent of < ountry so immensely vast; embracing the most fertile and productive region perhaps in the known world; with a climate and scenery as beautiful as nature could form them; and a population of hardy, industrious freemen, increasing with every hour oi lhe day, we do not hesitate in declaring our opinion, that the West is destined, at an early day, to be one of the finest, the noblest sections of country on lhe face of the globe; and that New Or leans, as a commercial city, may, at no very distant period, claim the proud appellation-of Mistress of the World. With such a field, then, as is spread before us, we cannot but feel con scious oi our success in lhe important labors which we are about to un dertake. Located, as we shall br, ut the general centre of the almost entire commercial business of the “ (Ureal 11 <•«/,” and designing that our paper shall embrace all intelligence of importance, of the United States anil oi Foreign Governments, it will be found especially interesting and useful to every class ol our fellow citizens throughout the Western countr.y The Great Western will be devoted mainly to will siippmt the mt rests oi and will take its political posi tion and plant ns >tu:idurd upon the broad parapet of Democracy ; it will also extend its notice to the interests of A/ecZirrMtcs,nnd to City News, Commerce.—The larger portion of this paper will be strictly commer cial. All inlt'iiigeuce oi importanc eof this character, both domestic ami foreign, will be. sumii < ci up al as carl) a moinent as possible, so as to af ford our mercantile pinions every description of news which th. y can desire, under this head. , Agriculture.—While every other branch of industry in the United States is receiving fre>li undeucouraging impuisesforperseverance,this most important ol nil, seems to flag behind the general march oi im provement and prosperity ; mid, instead oi being placed at the head of our general national policy, and receiving that fostering care and protec tion to which it is so pre-eminently entitled, is left lo grope its way,sim ply by the dint of that perseverance and unwearied industry sd charac teristic of our hardy countrymen. It will be ohr especial cure to sustain the interests of this class of our fellow citizens. Politics.—This department of our paper is one in which every class of our citizens is interested. Under this head we shall give the general political intelligence of the whole country; while we, as the conductors | of a public journal, are determined, w ithout tear, favor, or affection, to support, with all our zeal, such measures <»t policy as alone will tend, in our opinion, to the promotion oi our general prosperity as a people, the p rpetuution of our liberties, and our beloved ( nioii. 'l'his paper, therefore, will be purely Democratic in its principles; ha ving tor its object lhe ditfusion ol equal rights, equal blessings, and equal burthens, thereby promotinglhe general happiness ui lhe people; and to this end will all our energies be direct 'd. W’ith regard to the great questions ol policy which are now agirating the people of the United States, respecting the currency, we unhesita tingly declareour entire preference of the Independent Treasury system, from our belief of its strict constitutionality , and in its tendency, better calculated to promote lhe general piosperity ol ail classes, than any oth er which, in our view, cun be coin eived. We are strict constructionists of the Federal Constitution, and shall 1 always oppose those splendid schemes,or ‘ American Sy sieins’of monop oly, which have ever characterised lhe policy of the Federal opposition, recognising no implied interpretations of that instrument, and believing that lhe, ‘GENERAL WELFARE’ of every portion of our wide-spread confederacy, depends on a strict adherence to its plain and straigntfor vyard meaning, we shall not be sparing in our expositions and denuncia tions of those daring attempts which have and are now being made by the reckless and aspiring leaders of the Federal Party, io rend assunder this glorious Charter of our rights and liberties, and rear upon its ruins a splendid aristocracy ut wealth and power. Earnestly advocating, therefore, us we shall always do, these great and fundamental principles of our government, which were conceived by a virtuous and patriotic ancestry while snuggling lor the rights and lib erties of mankind, vve shall, in all cases, give our support, tur public offi ces, to such men us we are assured shall have the patriotism, talents, thinness and disposition to sustain and carry out those principles suc cessfully. With all our zeal and ability, therefore, we shall advocate the re election of MARTIN VAN BLKI2N, for lhe next Presidential term, with the fullest confidence in his exalted talents, integrity and patriJnsm, con .meed that upon hi< success depends, in a very great measure, the firm and lasting establishment of those glorious principles of our revolu tion, so udmirubly acted upon by Washington, Jellerson, .Madison, and Jackson. And for the second office in tiie gift of lhe Aineiican people, ■ we shall ascordially give our support to lhe Hon. John Forsyth, now Secretary of Stale. Inannouncing our preference of these talent- d, patriotic, long-trie ’ and approved statesmen, for the highest offices in lhe government, we t el a glowing confidence in the almost unanimous approval of our fellow citi zens of the West, withan abiding belief that they will rally around the standard thus raised, proudly uniurlmg lo the breeze the names of these distinguished hbinl-a. Mechanics.—Under this head that large and respectable portion of our fellow citizens, among whom we have the nonor ot classing ourselves, I shall have a hearing. \V e invite them to the use of our columns. J heir rights and interests must be sustained. Domestic and Foreign Intelligence.— Under these different heads will be found all important gi neral intelligence, both at home and abroad. L't’/y Ae/r«.—l’hi- head will embrace all mutters and occurrences of interest, of every character, relating to, or transpiring within the city. We shall reserve a large portion of our paper for Advertising Patrons, both of the « ity and count y ; and as vve anticipate a numerous subscrip tion list and a wide-spread circulation, it will be io the interest of adver tisers to appear in uurcolumns. it is contemplated for this paper to be published daily, setni-weelJy, and weekly, on the following TERMS.

The publibation of this paper will be commenced some time in the month ol October next—it there is a sufficient number of sub>cribcrs at that time to justify it.

I he political complexion ol lhe News will be decidedly democratic. It will be ever found contending for the legitimate rights of the people— and will sustain any parly w hose object is the promotion of the best in terests of American Demociacy, and will support any man whose exer tions are directed lo forward Hie same glorious principles. But to any other party, or to any other men, we shad never contribute our mite to advui ce or elevate. ' We shall support Mai tin Van Buren for the Presidency in preferenca to Henry Clay . We know that Mr. Van Buren, if elected President, will sustain the South, not only in Iwr <1 mestic in lit tious, hut against the endeavors soon to.be adopted lo injure her agricultural interest. The administration oi Mr. Van buren has already done much to advance the prosperity and happiness ol onr country ; and we feel overv disposition to allow hi.n to continue -inoiher term in the discharge ot th duties which he has thu- tar so creditably i eriormed. Even awarding lo Mr Clay all that hi most ardent friends claim for him, we cannot <ee anv flood reason why he “hoiild supercede Mr. Van Buren, at the upproacli ingclei tion. Mr. Van Buren, by the high minded policy pursued in the Canadian difficulties, and the more threntenihg Irci hies growing out of the boundary question between the governnicht of Maine and the autho rities oi the province of New Brunswick, lias won the confidence and support ol th ; American people. A war would have been, as it ever has. and ever w ill be, d’straclive to the agriculture and commerce of th and any menus consistent with the honor and character of our country, should always be adopted to avoid collision with foreign pow ers; and more particularly with a governm »nt whose manufactures con tribute so much to mu interest and prosperity as that of England. The commercial department of <mr paper shall receive considorablant tention. We will give regular quotations of Cotton dating the hnsin ss season, of the Augusta, Charfe-lon, -sivanmih, New <»rk, v.obile, New Orle ans, and other markets in our own country, and th • state of th' priu cipal European markets.

As they are matters on public record, we w ill transcribe them into our paper. 'l’hey will prove interesting to ma ny of our readers, both fort» inporary perusal, as well as for subsequent reference; and will, no doubt,have a very happy tendency in correcting or confirming the daily mushroom statements that grow out of public tri als of every kind.

Alone I walked the ocean strand, A pearly shell was in my hand, J stooped and wrote upon the sand My name, the year, the day. As onward from the spot I One lingering look I fondly cast: A wave came rolling high and fast, And washed my lines away. Andpo methought, ’twill shortly be With every mark on oarlh from me! A wave of dark oblivion’s sea Will sweep across the place Where I have trod the sandy shore Os time; and been, to be no more; Os me—my day—the na<pe I bore; To leave no irack nor trace. And yet with him who counts the sands, And holds the waters in his hands, I know a lasting record stands. Inscribed against my name. Os all this mortal part has wrought; Os all this thinking soul has thought, And from those fleeting moments caught For glory, or for shame! THE PARTING OF SUMMER. 11 Y M RS . H E M A N S . Thou’rt bearing hence thy roses, Glad Summer; fire thee well ’ Thou’rt singing thy Inst melodics In every wood and dell: But in the golden sunset Os thy latest lingering day, Oh! tell me oe’r this chequered earth How hast thou passed away ? Brightly, sweet summer! brightly Thine hours have floated by, To the joyous birds of the Woodland boughs— The rangers of lhe sky: And brightly in the forests 'l'o the wild deer bounding free;— And brightly midst the garden flowers, To the happy murmuring bee. Blit how to human bosoms, With all their hopes and fears; And Uioughts that make them eagle wings To pierce the unborn years ? Sweet Summer! to the captive Thou hast flown in burning dreams Os the woods, with all their hopes nod leaves, And the blue, rejoicing streams; To the wasted and the weary, 1 On the bed of sickness bound ; in sweet, delicious fantasies, I’hat changed with evefy sound; To the sailor on the billows, In longings wild and vain For the gushing founts and breezy’ hills, And the homes of earth again. And unto me, glad Summer; How bast thou flown to me ? A/y chainless footsteps nought have kept From thy haunts us song and |f^ e « Thou hast flown in wavward vi ions, In memories oi lhe Dead- In shadows from a troubled heart, O’er a sunny pathway shed; — In brief and sudden strivings To flight a weight aside; ’Midst these, thy melodies have ceased, And all thy roses died ! But, oh! thou gentle Summer! If I greet thy flowers once more, Bring me again thy buoyancy, Wherewith my soul should soar! Give me to hail thy sunshine With song-and spirit free; Or in a purer land than this 'May our next meeting be! Mis CEL LAN 7 ’ront the New- York Mirror-. o THE SULTAN AND HIS VIZIER. An eastern sultan, who w as far from being a tyran 1 in his general way, got one day very mm h out o temper. All the courtiers kept aloof as soon as they -aw clouds on the visage of the Brother of the Sun; but one careless attendant came near him abruptly, and committed some slight offence. His highness broke out into a torrent of rage, and ordered the of fender to receive the bastinado forthwith, and then to be impaled in front of the great gate of the ptdace. “ Lord of the faithful!” said his honest vizier, “ Jet the fulfilment of thy commands be delayed, v> hile I 'elate thee a story.” The sultan gave a mute, surly sign of assent, whereupon the vizi r began to relate the following tale, for which, be it remarked, he drew on his invention, not on memory: “ A wealthy and benevolent mussuhnan bad rt slave, whom he wished to make happy, so be gave him bis freedom, and presented him, moreover, with a good ship, loaded with costly merchandize. Ti e bondman, now free from his fetters, sot sail joyfully for his native country; but suddenly a storm arose, and flung him on the shore of an uninhabited island. His vessel went to pieces, and he was left to bemoan his sad fate on the desert beach. At first he saw no tra ces of human abode, but, as lie left the shore and journeyed further on, he saw the walls ami towers of 1 large city in the distance. Joyfully he bent bis steps towards it, and hardly had he reached the gates, when he was met and welcomed with shouts of joy. Countless multitudes of the inhabitants surrounded him, bowed their faces to the dust, and cried, as with >ne voice, ‘long live our sultan.’ ” The poor ship wrecked freedman besought them not to make sport of his misery; but he was assured by the rejoicing multitude, that these honors were paid him in sober arnest. Spite of his struggles, he was lifted by ‘‘orce into a splendid chariot, and conducted to a palace glittering with gold and jewels. Here he was dressed by officious attendants in royal robes, while a rowd of grave dignified-looking old men, who de lated themselves to be the great officers of state, did him homage as their sovereign, and vowed eternal fi lelity. So, whether he liked it or not, rule he must. Te was little used, as your highness may imagine, to tianaging the affairs of a great people, and would tave cut but a sorry figure had it not been for a wise tnd aged vizier, who always gave him prudent coun sels to aid in his inexperience.
