This Gazet.te having been transferred by purchase to , the undersigned, will in future be conducted by them i conjointly as EditorsandProprietors. The reasons which ■have impelled them to an undertakingat once so laborious ' OThtaxsoonsible, as the conduct of a public Journal, in ' coimeclron with their professional avocations.may be read intheprcs.nl lowering aspect of the political horizon, produced by the fearful prevalence of the doctrines ofthe Presidents ill-starred Proclamation —doctrines at war with the genius and spirit of our Government—in their nature, foreign to its theory —in their tendency, destruc tive toils character as a confederated republic, by over ! turningthe rights and sovereignty of the states which I compose it, and in their final end and effect, baleful to the ! liberties ofthe People. To contribute our feeble aid in the great work ot pro ducing a conformity in the practices of the Federal (iov ernment, to its true and original theory—in restraining its action within its original, and well defined Consti : tutional limits; in one word, to dethrone the misrule of I revived Federalism, and to restore the supremacy of the I rejected Republicanism of’9B—to build up the true and ■ genuine State Rights doctrine in its primitive purity, j strength and beauty, untrammelled with the conditions, I restrictions, limitations and refinements ofthe political I weat er-eocks of the present day —these may be num bered amongthe objects,to the accomplishment of which, . our humble exertions shall be dev.,ted, with a zeal and ! we trust.) a sincerity not unbecoming their importance, j Nurtured and brought up as we have been, in the admoniton ofthe Republican State Rights doctrine—in a contest in which their preservation is sought on the one hand by the lovers of Constitutional Liberty, and threatened on the otner by the renewed assaults of re-ani mated Federalism,it may be easily conjectured on which side we are to be found. We aspire to belong to the i Republican State Rights Partv, professing such princi ples as sustained '.he Fathers oi that faith in ’9Band ’99 as bore that party in Georgia triumphant, through the political conflicts of’2s and 26, and to which it has not proved recreant in ’32 and ’33. We claim to be disciples ofthe School of Jefferson, as taught in the Kentucky and Virginia Resolutions. But professions of republic-, apism have become — u — Ttlalm toThuT tillej from the Vnion Democratic flejnib lican party ofGeorgia, up to the great ATiftomd Republi can pa.ty of the t nion, and back to the remnant of the party which rejoiced in the subsequent election of a Se dition law Judge, as the triumph ofthe Democratic Re publican party of New England ! Equally vague is the pretence to belong to the State Rights Party, since many of those who profess to be Stale Rights dherents, ,'eny to tin States all oilier rights, but those of remonstrance and submission. Still more uncertain is the pfofesskin of belonging to the Jeflersonian School,since many who pretend to be followers of that Pat i.it, publish to the world, the preposterous, the humiliating notion, that the labours of his whole life were intended to prove that the States have only the right of petitioning for a redress of grievances—of I monstrating against unconstitutional Federal Legis j lation, and finally “ whenall other remedies fail” of protesting 1 ! 1 To prove that our professions ,ui md of this character, kt the columns of the Herald be our witness. The ears of, lie people have of late been drummed al most to deafmss with the continued and popular cry of Union ! Union ! ! Union !! 1 We too profess, (not emptily) to love and venerate’the Union, and to be as highly sensible of its incalculable value and importance, as those who are most loud and boisterous in then cla mours. But. we seek to have a Union in truth and in deed; a Union of Stales in its pristine beauty and sim plicity; m its original healthful vigour and purity. We would be spared the pang of viewing our own native Georgia, in whosebosom we have been cherished; upon the fruits of whose soil we have been reared; in whose bountiful institutions, we have been educated; a mere speck upon the map of a great consolidated empire, I shipped of her ancient rights, and disrobed of her primeval i sovereignty, by the agent she had helped Jo create ,• proud as we are, and as we have reason to be of her name and flier people - ardent as are our affections for her, soont r let it be written that “she was, but is no more.” We would have her as of right she shoulu bo, asoveretgn member—an integral part of a great confederated Re public. which shall continue the pride ci the Woiltl —the ; hope of Freedom —whose living prin< ipie shall manifest ’ itself, not in th ■ pomp and splendour of an hnmenscand I all-coiitrolli central' fiower; but inlhe happiness and ! prosp ' itv of every one, even the least ot its members. | It shall be our purpose to make the Herald vorthy the | perusal of all classes of readers—of those who delight in the pleasures of romance and the “ Music of Poetry”— ofthose who prefer to pursue the delightful paths ofliis torie or of scientific research, —oi those whose business it is to delve in “mother earth,” in pursuit of her glittering treasures, as well as of those who are connected, either I through choice or necessity, with the agitating, political controversies of the day If the increase of patronag. ' which we seek, will justify the measure, the -erald will ! be enlarged so soon as the materials for that purpose, can be procured. I The terms of its publication remain unchanged, being S3OO per annum in advance, or $1 00, at the end oi the year. Our press and materials are <>f that desc iption, that will enable us to execute with neatness and d- spatch all Job and Advertising business with which we may be fa vored. HINES HOLT, Jnn’r. WILLIAM E. JONES, i February 7, —42 *lCp* Editors generally will favor us by a few inser tions of the above PROr PECTUS, For publishing a new weekly -Veicspaper at Auraria Georgia, to be entitled THE MINERS RECO. DER, AND SPY IN THE WEST. IN the publication of this Paper, the Editor will from time-lo time, furnish the public with all the informa tion he may he enabled to procure, in relation to the pio gr ss of tiie Mines. In addition to which, he will shortly be furnished with a series of Essays, written by Literary Gentlemen, whohavn taken a Geological view of this i t c o ac s, I country, in which will be sn w i t i complete arrange ment ofthe diil rent Strata ot earths and rocks, forming this interesting section ofcountry, and in what kind Gold is most usually found. The Editor will endeavor at all times to procure from Mineralogists, literary men, and practical observers, such informalion, as will .cep up a constant investigation ofthe various minerals found in this country. In the way of Miscellaneous matter he will make the I best selections in his [tower both of a domestic and Ibr j eign nature. As regards the political course of this paper, the Editor will endeavor to pursue a liberal course, keeping at all times his columns open to the discussion of political sub jects, which are or may be of interest to the country. In relation to bis own political opinions, he considers them to be such as have been maintained in the Southern ! States, from the adoption ofthe Federal Uonslitution down to the present time.. He believes that Fed-. ralcn croacb.ments, should be guarded against With vigilance and repelled with promptness. Yet nowever in contend ing for the. Rights of the States, he cannot go to the ex traordinary and dangerous extent of some of the politi cians in n -ister Slate; because he believes it woulc. ulti mately end in the destruction of the Government and all its Sights. . His opinions however he considers as nothing more than tin opinions of any other individual, lie will there fore endeavor to act the part of a faithful Journalist with out being subservient to the views of any party leaving his paper open to the investigation of truth, and all inter est ing subjects by all. The first number of this paper will appear in a few I weeks. i Terms—Three Dollars per annum payable in ad i vance or Three Dollars and fifty eents at the end of the ' J’ car> Advertising at the usual rates.

December 14 —3s—«f • 1118—MWWWBM lb Jig ■p We take the following lines from the New York Mir ror. They were written, some years since, by a popular poet, in a lady’s common plaqe book, under the engraved portrails of Lord and Lady Byron, whence they were ex tracted for the Mirror. The verses embody a fair history of that unfortunate couple. Lincs written after the perusal of numerous essays re lative to the marriage and separation ofa certain no ble lord and lady, who, once upon a time, were paired, not matched. She said she never would forgive And yet forgive him— She vow’d a single life she’d live, Anri never have him:— She swon>«tw> auvw- wouLLrepcnt, And yet repen fed— By Jove ; she never could consent, And yet consented! 'A as this well don , or sensible, or witty ? And yet ’tis woman-like, ah, more’s the pity. . ell, then, she married him of course they parted W ithin a twelvemonth from their wedding-day; She sobbed and sighed— was nearly broken hearted, And with her babe, went sa 'lv on h< r way. Ho sought out foreign climes, and wrote and swore W hole books of nonsense ’bout his child and w ife. Ami toy'd with pretty women by th< score. And, not long alter, breathed away his life. The world, since then, hasstudied rather hard, 4 <> solve th< riddle of this strange event, Some think the lady wrong’d and some the bard, And some in tears have o’er their story bent: \ et all agree, ’tis verv, very odd That man and wife should cut up such a caper— But one is resting ’ncath the quiet sod, The other wasting sil. ntly life’s taper. Now for the moral of my fretful verse— i (Unlike the writings of the man I sing Il has a moral, sensible and terse, i hough’t nor cash, nor critic’s praies'bring)— And mark it well- young ladies should not w< d 1 he man whose hand they’ve once refused in scorn- For, ts I lie parson joins th in, heart and head ill rue the day that ever they were boro! FILIAL WORTH REWARDED. “ My tale is simple and of liumbli birth, A tribute of res oct real w orth.” “You are too pan imoniou®, Henry;” said I Mr. to one ol his clerks, as they were together in the counting house; “give me leave to sav that you do not dress sufficiently genteel to appear as clerk in a fashionable store.” Henry’s face was suffused with a deep blush, and in spite of his endeavors to suppress it, a tear trembled on his manly cheak. “ Did I not know that your salary was suffi cient to provide more genteel habiliments,” continued Mi. D. “I would increase it.” “My salary is sufficient sir,” replied Henry in a voice choaked w ith that proud independent-- offeling which poverty had not been a de io divest him of. Hi. employ er noticed his agi tation, and i mediately changed the subject. Mr. D. was a man of immense wealth and ample benevolence; He was a widower, and had but oue child, a dSught r, who was tin pride of his declining years. She was not as beauti ful as an angel, or as perfect as Venus, but ttie g odness, iff innocence, the intellig; n< e, of her mind shone in her « ountciiam e, and you had but to become -equainted with, to admire and love her. Fu< h was Caroline Delaney, when Henry first became an intimate of her lather’s house. No wonder then th it he soon loved her with a deep and devoted affection—and, reauer, had you known him,you would not Lave won dered that love was soon returned, for their souls were congenial; they were < ast in virtue’s purest motiMl -and allliougii th ir tongues never gave j utterance to what their hearts lei’, y< t the lan guage of th -ir eyes was too plain to be mistaken. Henry was the very soul ot honor, and although he perceived that he was not indifferent to Car olina , he still felt that he must conquer the pas sion that glowed in his bosom. “1 must nut endeavor to win her young and artless heart,” thought he—“l am pennyless and cannot expect that her father would ever c' nsf nt to our union —he has ever treated me with kindness, and I will not be ungrateful.” Thus he resolved; and thus he heroically endeavored to subduo what he considered ill fated passion. Caroline had many suiters, some who were fully worthy of her, hut she refused all theirs overtures with a gei tic but decisive firmness. Her father wondered at het conduct, yet would not thwart her inclination. He was in the decline of life, and wished to sec her happily settled ere he quited the stage» of existence. It was not long ere he suspected that young Henry was the cause of ho indefi'er ence. to others; the evident pleasure she took in hearing him praised, the blush that overspread their cheeks whenever their eyes met, all served to convince the old gentleman, who had not for gotten that he was once young himselfi that (hey felt more than common interest in ecali others welfare. He forcbore making any reinanks upon the subject, but was not as much displeas ed at the supposition as the pennyless Henry would have imagined. Henry bad now been a year in his employ. Mr. D. knew nothing of his family; but his strict integrity, his irreproachable morals, his' pleasing manners, all conspired to make hiin» esteem him highly. He was proud of Henry r and wished him to appear in dress, as well as in manners, as respectable to any one. He had often won feredat th< scantiness of his wardrobe, for although lie dressed wnh the most scrupul ous regard to nealness, his clothes were almoyt threadbare. Mr. . did not think that this pro ceeded from a niggardly disposition, and be determined to broach the subject ai d if possible, ascertain the real cause- this he did in thu manner we have before related. Soon after this conversation took place, Mr. D. left home on business. As he was return ing through a beautiful little village, he alighted at thT; door of a cottage and requested a drink. The mistress, with an case and politeness thai convinced him that she had not always been th*i humble cottager, invited him to enter. He ac cepted the invitation—and here a scene of poverty and neatness presented itself, such a3 he had never before witnessed. The furniture, wbiah consisted of nothing more than was ab solutely necessary, was so exquisitely clean that il gave charms to poverty ; and cast an air of comfort on all around. A venerable looking old man who had not seemed to notice the en trance of Mr. D. sat lecning on his staff; clothes were whole, but so patched, that yH. could scarcely have told which had been fflF original piece. said Mr. aildressuTgAhc mistress ol the house. *• It is sir.” “I le seems to Lc quite aged.” isl “IL- is in his eighty-third year ; Le vived all Ins children excepting myself.” “ You have seen better days.” “ I have ; my husband was wealthy ; but false friends ruined him ; he endorsed notes to a groat amount, which stripped us of nearly all our property, and one misfortuno followed an - other, until we were reduced to poverty. My husband did n-rt suivive his losses, and two ci’ children followed him.” “ Have you any remaining children.” “ 1 have one and he is my only Mv health is so feeble that I cannot do much* and my fath r I c ng blind needs great attention. My son conceals from my knowledge tiro amount of Ins sallary ; but I am convinced that he sends m< nearly all, if not the wholeamourit of it.” “ 'Hu n he is oot at home with you.” “ l\o sir, hr is a clerk for a merchant in Philadelphia.” “ < Icrk tor a merchant in Philadelphia I pray what is ioui son’s name.” “ Henry U .” “ Merry !” reiterated M. D. “why lie is mv ' Icik ; i ’• ft .’.mi at my house not a fert ni«u r s:n<«.

I believe lie loves my girl ind if he does he shall have her, and w ith, all my propelty in the bargain.” Filled with this project, and determined if possible to ascertain the true state of their hearts, he ent -red the breakfast room the next morning after bis airival home. “So Henry is about to go to England to try Lis fortunee,” he carlesslv observed. “ Henrv about to leave us!” said Caroline dropping the work she held in her hand; “about to leave us and going to England !” she added in a tone which evinced the deepest interest. “ To b-.- sure—but whrt if he i-, my chill V t “ Nothing sir, nothing, only I thought wo diould be rather lonsomc,” she leplicd, turning a win to hide the tears which she could not sup- ■. “ Tell me Caro’mo,” said Mr. D. tenderly embracing h- r, “ tell me uo you love Hecry ! you know I w ish your happiness, my child.
