And Agricultural and Mercantile Intelligencer.
Y 1 \ recent relinquishment of a participation
X , ,- ln , “** editorial labors of an old and well
established journal, would seem to require but
few preliminary remarks, in the proposed under
taking, were it not, that they are usually deman
ded by public expectation, and sanctioned by
custom. As there is no good reason why this
“tune-honored observance” should be disregard
ed in the present instance, I shall submit anqiit
oinc of my principles, and the course which shall
be observed ih conducting anew journal. The
object si the proposed publication being purely
what its title implies, supercedes the necessity
ol that political commentary which the doctrines
ot thpnlay have usually demanded; yet, as my
former professions are held with unabated at
tachment, and there being no neutral ground, in
the conflicting and varied sentiments, which dai
ly arise, as to both men and measures—it follows,
that 1 should not only make an exposition of my
political tenets, but also, that they should he
boldly set forth, and fearlessly defended. I have
ever indulged an ardent devotion to Republican
ism, as the terra w r as understood by its advocates
in 98 a sacred regard to the letter and spirit of
Uie constitution, and a determined and fixed hos
tility to every thing like constructive or implied
powers—an extension of equal justice to all par
ties that all power, is inherent in and derived
from the people, as the original source and ulti
mate tribunal the independence and distinct so
vereignty ot the States, and their confederacy as
a Union, under a government limited and actual
.y defined in its powers. These are the promi
nent articles of my political faith, and believing
in their correctness, shall abide by them in every
trial. J
Among the many topics of deep interest that
agitate the people of all classes, is the exercise
ot unwarrantable governmental influence on the
industry and resources of the country, and the
unconstitutional expenditure of the public treas
ure to objects of Internal Improvement—measures
too frequently destitute of general benefit, and of
tentimes marked by a spirit of partiality, selfish
ness and injustice. It would be criminal for one
“seated on the watch-tower,” and in the exercise
of the duties which belong to the Press, to ob
serve, with callous iudifference, the causes which
have produced, and the effects which have re
sulted from the latitudinary construction of the
Constitution. The dangerous consequences which
may ensue, are already indicated by the excited
feelings of the country. lam deeply impressed
that wrong has been done, and evil tolerated —
yet, with a spirit of forbearance, it would be bet
ter for the oppressed to bear their evils whilst
they are tolerable, than “fly to those they know'
not of.”
The present is an era in the history of our gov
ernment, distinguished for improvement. The
lover of his country beholds it on its “return
march” to its original purity and principles.—
Already has the distinguished head of the gov
ernment, said —“Tha successful operation of the
federal system can cniy be preserved by confin
ing it to the few and simple, but yet important
objects for which it was designed.” This is a
guarantee, that the purpose of the present Exe
cutive of the Union and his supporters, is an ef
fort to restore the 'Constitution to its original
healthy and unimpaired condition. lam happy
to accord with the Administration and its friends
in the wise and well directed course which is
pursued by them, ,
The time was, when to dissent from the mea
sures of any of the prominent parties of our State,
by an attachment to any of the others, or to their
then distinguished organs, implied an hostility
and acrimony which frequently had no bounds,
and rendered “ Wisdom, Justice f and Moderation
an empty and absurd profession. The times and
circumstances have now become more congenial
to better feelings: the perplexing difficulties
which have surrounded us—those emanating
abroad, and fostered at home, have subsided,
with the acknowledgment of our rights, and the
successful accomplishment of nearly all the ends
which we have contended for. I can review my
past course in relation to State affairs, with cheer
ing approbation; my future efforts will be inti
mately connected with the past; and it is hoped,
without offence to an adverse party, The writer
does not believe in the infallibility of man, nor
in their perfection as a party; it will therefore be
my endeavor to support worthy men, and ap
prove such orthodox measures as may emanate
front genuine patriotism and unadulterated re
publicanism —such measures as will best answer
the ends of our free government, and of our
State’s interest: —such men as will “defend the
rights of the People, the Sovereignty of the
States, and the Constitutional authority of the
Union against all encroachments.”
It shall be my studious endeavor to render the
Intelligencer an Agricultural and Mercantile ve
hicle: to effect it, I shall hasten to possess my
self of all the necessary materials which these
ample subjects furnish, to unfold every species
of information which will be thought to instruct,
to interest, and to please. Ii is believed, that
the mutual conjunction of interest, between the
Merchant and Planter, cannot fail to render ac
ceptable to one, whatever may benefit the other.
My efforts shall be used to procure the earliest
and most useful mercantile information, and lay
it before the public; and ft will be my desire to
go into Rural Affairs, and garner the choicest and
best offerings for my Agricultural readers/

DEATH AT THE TOILET.
“ Never mind, so the heart be in the right
place,” said the sentimental Belinda Tight
ened-up, as she stood before the glass arrang
ing lly-traps,cupid-snarcs, and beau-catcheia,
T<r behold her placing curls upon curl.;, and
piling* puffs upon puffs, until the slender neck
bends beneath the unnatural excess, one
would think the fair moralist, a good
hearts; and so she was. Jler’s was in° the
right place—-but where? not of course when..-
nature placed it, bat where whalebone aid
cord had forced it. How much at case, t' ■
little flutterer must be, if one could but fii.
it; that however, would be a difficult searc!
but so much the better. Every thing has
double relish, and is more highlv prized fro. .
the difficulty of getting at it. We intend; and
to indulge in a little of the amusing clik-ch
about fashion and folly ; it is so interestin ',
so delightfully amusing, but happening ; i
think wh a fair illustration Belinda’s fori
face, figure,-air and attitude' would furnish 1 )

Wall Paper.— The dresses of the ladies,

remind us of the figures of wall paper. Tl,

some, which we havf? actually measure !

which lives between them! Probably tl o
sleeves are used for short gowns at home, ai
