IN proposing to establish in the city of New Orleans, a new pap**r un der the above title, we ate encouraged by the glowing ana magnifi cent prospects which seem to hover around this mighty Emporium of the West, pointing its destinies to a summit of commercial grandeur, to which no other city in the world can ever expect io reach. Nor are these prospects confined alone to New Orleans. When we take iato view lhe iiiuiiproiiM w'llc-siiread. mid extended arina ol ibe noble Missis- Hippi, winding lliemaelveH tlnoiiglt un extent of country *o immensely vast; enibrucing the most fertile mid productive region perhaps in the known world; with a climate and scenery as beautiful us nature could form them; mid a population of hardy, iiiilustrious freemen, increasing witheverv hour of the dav, we do riot hesitate in declaring our opinion, that the West is destined, at an early dav, to lie one of the finest, tire noblest sections of country on the face of ilie clohe; and that New Or lemis, ns u commercial cily, may, at no v<ffiy distant period, claim lhe proud nppellmi*m of Mi tress ot the World. With such u field, then, as is spread before us, we cannot bitt feelcon scious of our success in the important labors which we m e about to un dertake. Located, as we shall be, at the general centre of the almost entire commercial business of the “ Great West," and designing that our paper shall embrace nil iiitcllieence of importance, of the United States mid of Foreign Goveriiimqils, j) will be found especially interesting mid useful to pycry class of our felloff citizens throughout tire Western country The’ Great Western will be devoted mainly to Commerce, will support the interests of Agriculture, and will take its political posi tion mid plant its standard upon the broad para|ietof Democracy; it will also extend its notice t the interestsof Hlecluinic»,Mu\ to City Keu», Sfc. Commerce.—The larger portion of this tinper will be strictly commer cial. All intelligence of importance of this character, both domestic and foreign, will be summed up at as early a moment as possible, so as to af ford our mercantile patrons every description us news which th-y can desire, under this head. Agriculture.—While every other branch of industry in the United States is receiving fresh midencouragiiig impulses for perseverance, this most important of all, seems to flag behind the general march of im provement mid prosperity; and, instead of being placed at the head of our general national policy, and receiving that fostering care and protec tion to which it is so pre-eminentlv entitled, is left to grope its wav, sim ply by the dint of that perseverance and unwearied industry so charac teristic of our hardy countrymen. It will be otircspeciul care 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 tire general political intelligence of the whole country; while we, as the conductors of a public journal, are determined, without fear, favor, or affection, to support, with all our zeal, such measures of policy as alone will tend, in our opinion, to the promotion of our general prosperity us u people, the perpetuation of our liberties, and our beloved Union. * 'I llis paper, therefore, will be purely Demucratic in its principles; ha ving for its object the diiiusion of equal rights, equal blessings, mid equal burthens, thereby promoting the general huppiuess of the people; uud to this end will all’our energies be directed. With regard to the great questions of policy whic h are now agitating the people of the United States, respecting the currency, we uuhesitu tiugly declare our entire preference of the Independent Treasury system, from our belief of its strict constitutionality, mid in its tendency, better calculated to promote die general prosperity of all classes, than any oth er which, in our view, can be con. eived. YVe are strict construct onists of the Federal Constitution, mid shall always oppose those splendid schemes, or ' American Sy steins’ of monop oly, will hhuve ever characterised the policy of the Federal opposition, recognising no implied interpretations ol that instrument, and believing that the ‘GENERAL WELFARE’ of every portion of our wide-spread confederacy, depends ou a strict adberance to its plain and straightfor ward meaning, we shall not be sparing in our expositions mid denun.’iu tions of those during attempts which have and are now being made bi the reckless uud aspiring lenders ot lire Federal Party, to rend assuudei this glorious t barter of our rights mid liberties, and rear upon its ruins a splendid aristocracy of wealth ami power. Earnestly advocating, therefore, as we shall always do, these great and fundamental principles of our government, wliii-h’were conceived by a virtuous mid patriotic ancestry while struggling tortile rights mid lib erties of mankind, we shall, in all .uses, give our support, lor public offi ces, to such men us vve are assured shall have lhe patriotism, talents, firmness and <lis)msilio.i to sustain and curry out those principles suc cessfully. Willi all our zeal and übuilv, th refore, we shall auvocate the re-election of JIAR TIN VAN BUREN, li.r lhe next Piesidentinl term, with the fullest confidence in his exalted talents, integrity and patriotism convinced that upon iris success depends, in u very great measure, the firm and lasting establishment of those glorious principles of our revolu tion, so admirably acted upon by Washington, Jetlerson, Madison, and Jackson. And for the second office in the gilt of the American people, we shall ascordially giie our support to the Hon. John Forsyth, now Secretary of State.’ Inamioitnciiig our preference of these talented, patriotic, long-tried mid approved statesmen, tor the highest offices in the government, we feel a glowing confidence in lhe ulu* ..t unanimous approval of our fellow citi zens of the West, withnu *„:diug belief that they will rally around the standard thus raised, iiroudly unlurling to lhe breeze the uUnies of these distinguished individuals.
