trigues are every day laid before the public eye The
ability to do this constitutes the great distinction
between the party organs and the independent press
The great object Of the party newspapers is to con-
ceal as much as possible OF the independent
newspapers is to tell every thing. Thus, day after
day, the readers of the Herald are put in possession
OF political intelligence which the organs of fac
tion may not have obtained, and dare not reveal if
hey had. Hence, however, the popularity-the
uccess-and the power of the independent press.
We mean to enlarge and extend to the fullest
assible degree the usefulness and value of the in
dependent newspaper press in this communication
of political intelligence Heretofore the labors
of reporters at Washington has been confined to
the recording of the proceedings in Congress, and
the squabbles, misfortunes and cesses of Office
beggars The action of the Executive in carrying
out the laws passed by Congress has not been so
carefully, minutely and regularly noted as it
ought to have been. The daily business of the
various departments has been overlooked, and il
has only been by the casual development of some
particularly important fact that the people have
known what was actually the course Of the Gov.
eminent. Now we mean to commence system.
attic daily report of the actual doings of the Gov
ernment in all its departments. In this way the
attention of the people will be directed from
the patry and Improbable squabbles of intriguing
politicians. to the action and practical working
of the Government itself. Its good deeds, and
its errors will be thus alike fairly exhibited
and the intelligence and patriotism OF the re.
public will be able to pronounce a just judg.
ment on the claims of the administration. We
shall in this way do the state some service, and
do for Mr.. Polk, if he adheres to his pledges,
and conducts the government with becoming ener.
gy, wisdom, and patriotism, that which Richie
~ Co., with all their facetiousness and philoso.
ply could never be able to accomplish. Nous yer.
