We commend the following Letter of
James G. Birney, the Abolition candidate
for llte Presidency, to llte special notice of
uor neighbor of the “Messenger” in that
paper of 'Thursday. It is charged that
this Birney is in favor ol llte elect ion of
James I\. Polk, and that he has been nom
inated by the Democrats of Michigan, as
a candidate for the Legislature. Now we
give Birney’s own letter to the Editor of
the New York Tribune, on the subject,
from which it will be seen, that iheir is an
issue of veracity between llte Messenger
and Birney. Let them settle that as they
please, ihe people will form a correct
opinion for themselves and unless the
Messenger desires lo mislead its readers,
it will publish Burney’s letter or retract the
charge made in that paper ol Thursday.
LETTER EROM JAS. C. BJRNEV.
New Yokk, Oct. S, 1844.
To the Editor of the Tribune:
Your paper of this morning contains a I
statement which I wish to correct. It is,
that, on my passage from Detroit to Bul
falo, I “ did not hesitate to avow my prefer
ence Jar Mr. Polk , and for the Eoco l'oco
jiolicy generally .”
On the occasion referred 10, L gave no
opinion on the general policy of the Dem
ocratic parly ; nor did 1 speak of unv pre
ference that 1 had, as between Mr. Clay
and Mr. Polk; but I spoke of them both,
as I always have done, as utterly objec
ticnable. In remarking on the danger ol
Annexation, 1 expressed the opinion that
l now repeal —that l had hut little fear of
it, should Mr. Polk beeleeled; but a good
deal should Mr. Clay lie elected. 1 pla
ced my fears on the ground, that Mr. Clay,
as weil as Mr. Polk was incompetent to
lead his. I considered Mr. Ciav, as the
adroitest, as well as the boldest, party tac
tician we have; whilst Mr. I’olk has shown
noextraorninary skill and had compara
tively little experience in party manage*
; moot.
If I have been nominated for the Lcgiila
turc of Micvigan by the Democrats of the
County in which 1 reside, it has been since
jl left home. My relation to the Liberty
parly and my uncompromising opposition
lo both the other parties is as well under
j stood there as elsewhere. If then, I have
been nominated by any portion ol my
countrymen, it has been neither as a Dem
ocrat nor as a Whig. But as I have re
ceived no official or authoritative notifica
tion, it would be premature in me now to
take any further notice ol it.
Respectfully, &e.
JAMES G. BIRNEY.

Effects of Dreaming. —A voting

and, to prove that he had no faith in it as a
prognostic, went out, aud finding a tree
similar to that he had seen in his sleep,
climbed to the top. But, while feeling him
self in perfect security, the branch on which
he was seated gave way, and he came to the

PROSPECTUS
For Publishing in the City of IVashington, a Dem
ocratic JVewspaper lo be called Ihe
CO. VS 17 T tJTMO.r.
'The undersigned, having purchased the materi
als of The Spectator, will issue, hit or before the
lo.lt inst. the first number of anew paper to he cal
led “The Constitotioji.” ft will be devoted to
tin* steady advocacy of that system of measures
which will prevent unimpaired the sacred instru
ment front which we borrow the name; and as con
stantly oppose whatever i.s not sanctioned by it.
We shall unceasingly oppose a National Bank—a
Protective 'Tariff-—lnternal Improvement hv the
General Government—a Distribution of llte Pro
ceeds of the sales of the Public Lands—Assump
tion of the Slate Debts—art abrogation ofihe Ex
ecutive Veto, as unconstitutional and inexpedient.
We hope to make llte paper worthy of the con
fidence ami support of tlte Democratic party. It
shall be Ihe faithful expositor of tlieir principles,!
and the ever ready medium to convey tlieir senti
ments and wishes to the public. 'The Democratic
cause, is the cause ol truth and justice, ll courts
the light. It shuns no investigation. And we are!
determined to see whether a pajter,conducted with
a devotion to the prinriples, rather than to the men
of our party—to litrther the great cause of human
progress, rather than the mere advancement of Par
ticular individuals, will not commend itself to the
confidence and favor of the people.
Assoon as the all engrosing topics of tlte elections
are over, we shall devote a liberal portion of our col
umn* to subjects of general literature and science;
endeavoring to present such matter as will amuse,
instruct, and edifv.
The proceedings of Congress will receive parti
cular attention, and a full and comprehensive sum-;
mary will he given, including the yeas and nays up
on all important questions.
The paper, for the present, will be issued semi-j
weekly during the recess, ami daily during the ses- j
sinus of Congress, at Five Dollars per annum, in
advance. W. A. HARK IS,
JNO. HEART.
PROSPECTUS
OF THF
WVLtff/.VC TO.V JO UK.Y.IL.
Having been induced, at the solicitation of some
of the member* of the Democratic party, to take
charge of the Republican Press in this place, we
will hereafter, on every Friday morning, issue a
Democratic paper, under the above title, at the of
fice of the late *• lVihnington Messenger,” in the j
town of Wilmington.
As we have given a brief outline of the princi
ples the “Journal” will advocate in our first num
ber we think it unnecessary again to reiterate the
political doctrines it will he our constant and ear
nest endeavour to inculcate. On the present oc
casion, iherelitre, we will merely stale, that the.
Journal will he the uncompromising op|xntent of
each and every ‘link’ m the whole oi'llte ‘great
chain’ of Whig measures—a United Slates Bank
—a Protective Tariff—the Bankrupt Act—lnter
nal Improvements by the General Government, &c.
While on the other hand it will, so far as our hum
ble abilities will enable u*, to be the firm Iriend and
supporter of the Constitution as it was left us by
our Fathers; and of a strict construction of that i
Constitution, thereby ensuring the rights of the se
veral States which compose the Conlederaev. But
we set out with the idea of not going into details.
It would be a needless tax upon the readers time.
Suffice it to say, that the Journal will Is* a Demo- I
cratic pajter, and will always advocate Democratic
men and Democratic measures.
Although the Journal will be a political paper,
yet, in order that it may also be agreeable to the
general reader, its columns will always lie ojien to
such items of intelligence as will lie interesting to
the Farmer, the Merchant, the Mechanic, &.c. Ag
ricullure, Trade, the state of the Markets, &c. to
gether with a slight glance at polite literature oc
casionally, will receive our attention. We hope
we will not he considered ton ‘personal in our re
marks’ when u*e oiler a few suggestions to our
friends touchingthe necessity there exists lor kee
ping on loot a Democratic Press in llte Town of
Wilmington.
In the first place, Wilmington is a place of the
greatest Commercial importance of any in the State
it is situated in a Democratic District, there is a
great deal of intercourse carried on by llte citizens
ofthe lower portion ol the State with this place,
and consequently a Press here would be calculated
to do as much good, in diffusing information, as
perhaps at any other point in the State. Again,
there are, we believe, three Federal to every one
Democratic paper in the State, and this we feel
confident, is the reason vvhv North Carolina placed
a Whig in her Gubernatorial Chair al our recent
election; lor ue feel assured that it only requires a
fair comparison to he instituted between the policy
ofihe Federal and Democratic parties to ensure
for the latter the most triumphant success. Well
now, it is impossible for a Press to lie kept up un
less our friends will patronize it hv subscribing
themselves and inducing others to “go and do like
wise.” For gentle reader, we suppose you are a
wnre, am! if you are not, we will tell you, that
Printers and Editors are so lar like other mortals,
that it requires something more than air lo feed and
kind wishes to clothe them. 'Therefore, we hope
that every Democrat into whose hands this Pros
pectus may fall, will do all lie can to insure the suc
cess ofihe Journal and the cause of Democracy.
