Notwithstanding the unparalleled pres
sure, which for the last twelve months, has
crampcd and trammelled every depart
ment of the Mechanical, Agricultural and
Commercial community, the unwearled
and indefatigable energies Of American
enterprise, are once more giving evidence
OF higher and tairer prospect before u.s.
That quiescent attribute, which, for time,
seemed to mark and designate our down.
ward proclivity to carelessness and indit-
ference, has fortunately awakened from
its sluggish apathy; and partially dlsln'
thralled from the fatal influence of too
blind credulity in the infallibility Of
those whom we have elevated above Us,
may we not still indulge the hope, that
there is yet held in reserve, happy re.
suit in the experiment Of this last and
once purest Of RepubIicsl


Instigated, in part, by that grand revcl-
ution which has already commenced, and
which is still going on in the opinion Of
the people, so far as respects the political
relations existing between the respective
States and the Federal Government, tho
present Proprietor is about to embark IN
the publication of the Liberty Advocate.


Two years ago, this journal dated Its
origin, at period when, in this County,
1t had many difficulties to encounter, and
the strongest opposition to contend with
The enduring, and, as we conceive, ortho.
dox principles, which have nurtured and
sustained the journal through "good and
through evil report" had then in their In,
fancy, but mere minority which sustained
it. But, the resistless march of human
reason, before whose advance all obsta'
cles must ultimately recede, has brough!
about a brighter and fairer dawn; and
the philanthropist and the patriot can
now look in prospective upon tho re-
visit Of those purer days, which once
pointed to the destiny Of our much DO
loved country.


The political creed of the Advocate Will
be the same which it has heretofore ad'
vocated. State Rights and State Sorsr-
eignty, will be the arterial action when
shall give life and animation to its pollsi'
cal character.-But, while exercising ate'
nacity for those principles which will new
or yield to caprice, the columns ofthisjour,,
nal will, at all times, be open to liberal
discussion, and offered as ready channs'
to the tide Of passing events, and an &C
ceptable organ of general science and use
ful knowledge. -


We cordially invite the patronage Of az
those who concur with US in sentiment, ~
well as the magnanimity ofthose who ds
sentfrom sin politics, to cooperate ~ sus'
tanning the press. The Advocate WI u ~
future appear, under the Editorial suPervl'
sion of ]. ]. GRAVES ~ J. M. SMILEY, Esqrs'
