VYYOSVLCTUS
OF THE
A WELL conducted Newspaper is
of great utility in any part of the
country; but the present flourishing
condition of Fort Hawkins renders it
doublv so at that place. The human
mind has never invented another meth
od by which knowledge is so generally
diffused, nor one by which it costs so
little as that of a well conducted peri
odical publication. The Liberty of Ike
press is justly esteemed the palladium
of our rights'; but when prostituted to
the service of party purposes, is capa
ble of being the greatest evil in the
nation. —The Messenger will attach
itself to no party, but w ill contain as
much truth, nmf as little error as may
be in the Editor’s power to give to the
public.
TERMS.
The Messenger will be printed
wceklv, at three dollars a year in ad
vance, or lour dollars if not paid within
the year.
NO subscription will be taken for
less than a year, and no paper discon
tinued (except at the option of the
Editor) till orders arc given and all
