G. EDMONDSON, Cor. Sec. November 26 44 td THE GREAT WESTERN. LIBERTY AND THE UNION FOREVER—THE PRINCIPLE® OF WASHING TON, JEFFERSON AND JACKSON. IN proposing to establish in the city of New Orleans, a new paper un der the above title, we are encouraged by the glowing and inagnifi cent prospects which seem to hovw mound this mighty Emporium of the West, pointing its destinies to a summit of commercial grandeur, to which no other city in the world cun ever expect to reach. Nor are these prospects confined alone to New Orleans. When we take into view’the numerous wule-spreud, and extenned 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 a climate and scenery as beautiful us nature could form them; mid u population of hardy, industrious freemen, increasing with every hour ot the dtiy, we do noi hesitate in declaring our opinion, that the \V csi is destined, al an early day, to be one ol’ the lines!, the nuble'st sections of country on the face of ihe globe; and that New Or leans, as a commercial city, may, ui no very distant period, claim the proud appellation of Mistress of the World. With such a held, 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 ot the “Great H c.\/,” 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 4’iie Great Western will be devoted mainly to Commerce, will support the interests ol' Agriculture, nnd will take its political posi tion and plant its standard upon ilic broad parapet of Democracy; it will also extend its notice t the mterestsof J/ecA/iwic®, and io City Netcs, Coaimerce.— i’he huger portion of this paper will be strictly commer cial. All intelligence ot importance of this character, both domestic and foreign, w ill 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, under this head. Agriculture.— hile every other branch of industry in the United States is receiving fresh andeneouraging impulses for perseverance, this most important of all, seems to flag behind ihe 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 lo grope its way, sim ply by the dint of that per-everance and unwearied industry so charnc terisllc of our hardy countrymen. Ir 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 ot our citizens is interested, i inder this head we shall give the general political intelligence of the v hole country; while we, as the conductors of a public journal, are determined, without leu , favor, or affection, to support, withail our zeal, such measures of policy as alone will tend, in our opinion, to the promotion ol our general prosperity as a penile, the perpetuation of our hbcrii - , and our beloved I nion. 'i his paper, therefore, will be purely Democratic in its principles; ha ving foi its object the diffusion equal rights, equalbtesaings, and equal promoting the general happiness of the people; and to this cud will all our energies be directed. With regard to the great questions of policy whit h are now agitating the people of the United biales, respecting the currency, we unhesita tingly declareobr entire preference ol’ the Independent 1 reasury system, from our belief of its strict constitutionality, ami in its tendency, better calculated to promote the general prosperity of ail classes, than any oth er which, in our view, can be con*, eived. We are strit t constructionist* of the Federal Constitution, aud sludl always oppose those splendid schemes,’or ‘ American Sy stems’ of monop oly, whih have ever characterised the policy of the Federal opposition, recognising no implied interpretation® 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 be sparing in our expositions and denuncia tions ot those dating attempts which have and are now being made by the rccklc.ss and aspiring leaders of the Federal Party, to rend nssunder this glorious Charter of our rights end liberties, aud rear upon ils ruins a splendid aristocracy of wealth and power. Earnestly advocating, therefore, as vve shall alway s do, these great and fundamental principles of our government, which were conceived by a virtuous a-nd patriotic ancestry while struggling lor the rights and lib erties ot mankind, we shall, in all rases, give our support, tor public offi ces, to such men as we are assured shall ka»e the patriotism, talents, firmness and disposition to sustain and carry out those principles suc cessfully. With all our zeal and ability, therefore, vve shall advocate the re-election of MARTIN \ AN BUREN, lor the next Presidential term, with the fullest confidence in his exulted 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, Jcffcrswu, Madison, and Jackson. And for the second office in the gift of the American people, we shall ascordially give our support la the Hon. John Forsyth, now Secretary of Smte. . . ' ' * 7" Inaniiotincing our preference of these talonti d, patriotic, long-tried nnd approved statesmen, for the hig'vesl offices in the government, we feel a glowing confidence in the aim .-t unanimous approval of our fellow citi zens of the West, with an r owing belief that they will rally around the standard thus raised, proudly unlui ling to the breeze the names ot these distinguished individuals. Mechamcs.—Luder this head that large anil respectable portion of our fellow cirfzens, among whom we have the nonor ot classing ourselves, shall have a hearing. W c invite them to the use of our columns. 1 heir rights and interests must be sustained. Domestic ami Foreign lutcltigcuce.--vn<\wt these different heads will be found all important general intelligence, both at home and abroad.

We shall reserve a large portion of our paper for Advertising Patrons, both of the city and countiy; and as we anticipate a numerous subscrip tion list and a wide-spread circulation, it will be to the inteicst of adver tisers to appear in ourcolmnns.
