ROBERT PHILIP & SON. THE G R EA T WE STE R N. LIBERTY AND THE UNION FOREVER—THE PRINCIPLES OF WASHING TON, JEFFERSON AND JACKSON. IN proposing to establish in the city of New Orleans, « new pap< r un der the above title, we arc encouraged by the glowing and magnili cent prospects which seem to hover around this mighty Emporium of the West, (jointing its destinies to 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 lake into view die niunerous wide-spread, and extended arms of the noble Missis sippi, winding themselves through an extent of country so immensely vast; embracing the most fertile and productive region perhaps in the known world; with u climate and scenery as beautiful as nature emdd form them; and a population of hardy, industrious freemen, increasing with every hour of the day, we do not hesitate in declaring our opinion, that the West is destined, at an early day, to be one ot the finest, the noblest sections of country on the 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 of our success in the important labors which we are about to un dertake. Located, as we shall be, at the general centre of the almost entire commercial business of the “ Great and designing that our paper shall embrace all intelligence of importance, of the United States and of Foreign Governments, it will be found especially interesting and useful to every class of our fellow citizens throughout the Western countr.y The Great Western will be devoted mainly to Commerce, , will support the interests of and will take its political posi tion and plant ils standard upon the broad parapet of Democracy ; it will also extend its notice lathe interests of AfceAanfcs, and to City News, Commerce.—-The larger portion of this paper will be strictly commer cial* 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 of news which they can desire, uuder this iiead. Agriculture.—While every other branch of industry in the United States is receiving fresh andencouraging impulses for perseverance, this most important of all, seems to flag behind the general march of im provement and 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-eminently entitled, is left to grope its way, sim ply by the dint of that perseverance and unwearied industry so cliarac terislic of our hardy countrymen. It will be our especial 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 tins head we shall give the general political intelligence of the whole country; while we, us 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 as a people, the perpetuation of our liberties, and our beloved Union. /Phis paper, therefore, will be purely Democratic in its principles; ha ving for its object the diffusion of equal rights, equal blessings, and equal burthens, thereby promoting the general happiness of the people; and to this end will all our energies be directed. With regard to the great questions of policy which are now agitating the people of the United States, respecting the currency, we unhesita tingly declare our entire piefcrence of the Independent Treasury system, from our belief of its strict constitutionality, and. in its tendency, better calculated to promote the general prosperity of all classes, than’any oth er 'which, in our view, can be conceived. We are strict constructionists of the Federal Constitution, and shall always oppose those splendid schemes,’or ‘ American Systems’ of monop oly, vrhitdi have ever characterised the policy of the Federal opposition, | recognising no implied interpretations of that instrument, and believing that the ‘GENERAL WELFARE* of every portion of our wide-spread confederacy, depends on a strict adherance to its plain and straightfor ward meaning, we shall not I>e 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, to rend assunder this glorious Charter of our rights and liberties, and rear upon its ruins a splendid aristocracy of wealth and power. Earnestly advocating, therefore, as we shall always do, these great and f undamental principles of our government, which were conceived by a virtuous and patriotic ancestry while struggling for the rights and lib erties ot mankind, we shall, in all cases, give our support, for public offi ces, to such incuas we are assured shall have the patriotism, talents, firmness 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 BUREN, for the next Presidential term, with the fullest confidence in his exalted talents, integrity and patriotism convinced that upon his success depends, in a very great measure, the firm and lasting establishment of those glorious principles of our revolu tion, so admirably acted upon by Washington, Jefferson, Madison, and Jackson. And for the sectrnd office in the gift of the American people, we shall as cordially give our support to the Hon. John Forsyth, now Secretary of Slate. [naiinouncingour preference of those talented, patriotic, long-tried and HDproved statesmen, for the highest offices in the government, w# feel a glowing confidence in the aim .->t unanimous approval of our fellow citi zens of the West, with an chiding belief that they will rally around the standard thus raised, proudly unfurling to die breeze the names of these distinguished individuals. Mechanics.—Under this head that large and respectable portion of our fellow citizens, among whom we have tlie Honor of classing ourselves, shall have a hearing. We invite them to the use of our columns. Their rights and interests must be sustained. Domestic and Foreign Intelligence.— Under these different heads will be found all important general intelligence, both at home and abroad. City News.— This head will embrace all matters 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 city and country; and as we anticipate a numerous subscrip tion list and n wide-spread circulation, it will be to the interest of adver tisers to appear in ourcoluinns. It is contemplated for this paper to be published daily, semi-tseckly, and weekly, on the following TERMS. For the daily paper sl2 00 per annum. “ semi-weekly paper, B 00 “ “ “ “ weekly “ 500 “ * Subscriptions to be paid, in all cases, in advance, or satisfactory city reference given, or the guarantee of the Postmaster, nt the office to which the paper is ordered, for its payment.
