Vii Il SuDScrlOerS propose. on lHe HESt
- of October, to commence the publ
cation Of daily newspaper, in New Or
leans, heading the above title. The rea-
sons for this course are numerous and
sufficient, but need not here be stated.


In answer to an inquiry, what will be
the character of the proposed publlca-
ton? The proprietors answer: that in
relation to partlzan questions, religious
or political, it takes no part whatever
Facts in relation to these, as we'll as other
subjects, will be occasionally stated, but
only as matter of history, or passing re-
mark, without taking sides for one party
or another. The editors are citizens, and
In common with other freemen, will vote
for Whig or Vanites; We suspect the for
mer; just as they please: but their pa
per will be neither one nor the other
1t will, however, to the utmost Of its abb
lity, sustain the public credit, by which
we mean the credit, of the United States.
our own State, and public institutions,
nor less that Of individuals our own in
cluded.


Passing events, domestic and foreign
will be carefully chronicled, and placed
before our readers in as brief and COM
prehensive manner as possible. All
important transaction occurring in the
city Of whatever character, will receive
from US due notice: and sometimes events
not very important, may be rendered
more so by our notice. The proceed
ings of public bodies, whether incorpora-
ted or not, will be observed, and full Oft
en- become the subjects of remark. The
various amusements of our city, Of what
ever name, will be subject upon which
we propose freely, but literally to COM
ment.


Commercial and business information
will form special item of the daily con-
tents of our sheet. At least once a week
we propose to give brief but full view
of the state Of the market. Arrivals of
ships and steamboats, will be noticed, and
facts learned by them be speedily com
municated to the public.


AS ours is at once a mercantile and
family paper, nothing ola bitter or angry
character; nothing indelicate or of immo-
raj tendency, will be permitted to stain
our pages. Instead of these, it will be
our aim to cater for the taste ofthe pure,
refined and virtuous and especially to
render our columns agreeable and in
structive to the young and to families,
where it is to be hoped our paper will be
daily and nightly read by the fair, as
well as by the staid and worthy among
the sterner SEX Let it not be supposed,
however, that sprlghtliness, wit, and sal
lies of mirth and innocent gaiety are to
form no part Of the contents of our Jour
nal. The smile of intelligent and harm
less humor, and the effiorescence ofchas-
'ened but Attic wit, and the pleasantries
=. social enjoyment, possess too many
Suarlns TO be refused admittance to our
a1 -eIaes' and will consequently be ever
welcome 70 our columns.


IN Short we intend to render our little
sheet compendium of all subjects con-
sistent with rigid purity Of morals from
the soberest lessons of religion and nh NH;
lOsophy, to the gayest and mos, L No pG,l p
sferts Of fancy and wit. ~ P'"' '"i
