In short the undersigned intends to make the Journal useful as his capacity will per nit, in promoting the great cardinal principles of the democratic party, and that he will zeaously cooperate with the ARKANSAS B.NNEt in the tablishment and defence of those principles upon which rests the integrity, harmony union and per- petHity of our Government. He will at all times defend his party from unjust attacks, come from what quarter they may; and rebuke any effort made to distract and divide them, either by enemies in disguise, or open opponents. He will support the nominees of the Baltimore Convention, to be held in May next for President and Vice President.

 The utmost care will be used to make the Journal interesting to every class of readers.

 The cause of education, morality and virtue, shall ever find in the Joarnal faithful advocate, believ- ing that in Government like ours deriving all it's powers from the people they form the basis of our happiness and solidity, and which, if neglected, the consequences cannot but be disastrous.

 A portion of the Journal will be devoted to the dissemination of religious intelligence, and to the medication of correct moral principles.

 Hehopcs that generous public, and the demo- ratic party particularly, will aid him in sustaining hc Journal, and give to h that patronage that will ccnre it's permanent establishment.

 The Journal will be printed weekly at S3 per annum, in advance, or Sl at the end of the year. Dec. 16 J. c. F. TOLLISON,
