 As the above title sets forth, the Dcmocra- tic party of Arkansas, acting through the Central Committee appointed for the purpose, have established TIE BavsER,n which is designed to be, and will be, the organ of the party ; and, by explaining, advocating, and defending the fundamental principles, and consequent policy, of the Democratic party, will contribute to the establishment and maintenance of good government.

 ssFHE BASNERn was commenced on the 18th of Ssptember last, and has now reached it's 18th number. The services of an Edi- tor. whose name stands at the head of it's columns, have been secured; and the publi- cation now stands on permanent and fayo- rable foundation, and commends itself to the confidence and support of all who desire the welfare of the Democratic party, and that its principles may be disseminated through the country, and faithfully sustained. All admit the necessity of newspapers, to any party, for the purpose of placing their prin- ciples and policy fairly and extensively be- fore the public, of defending them against misconcepiion and misreprescntation,- for the purpose of keeping bright and strong those bonds of harmony and good under standing, by which alone proper union and efficient organization can be secured.

 Impressed with these considerations, and to attain these desirable and necessary ends, for the Democratic party, sThe Ban ner" has been established Will not the Democrats sustain it The Wings have fsco organs at the seat of government. Will the Democrats not have one ? his believed that they will !; and that they will sustain it libe- rally. The following is a brief summary of what the Editor of the Banner understands. and will maintain, as the creed of the Demo- cratic party:

 The peopie the oaly source of Legitimate power

 The freedom. sovereignty, and independence of the respective States.

 The Constitution of the union special grant of powers, limited and definite.

 The Representative to obey the instructions of the constituents.

 Elections free, and suffrage universal.

 No taxation beyond the scessary wants of an eco- nomical administration of the government.

 No favored classes, and no monopolies.

 These are fanda0ental principles, and in their practical application to the purposes of good government, they deny to the General Government the power to establish t Naiion- Bank,-to impose 1arif of Pfoiectice du- tles,-to make ssInternal Improvements with i'll any State, except for purposes clearly ne cessary and national,--to use, for any other purpose than it's own necessary expenses, the money arising from the sales of the pub- lie lands,-or to assume or pay any of the debts ofany of the individual States.

 From the foregoing, it will be readily iul- derstood what will be the course of the Ban i Ief, iii relation tn general politics. As to 1 the administration of the State Government, bearing in mind the same general principles, it will contend for economy, fidelity, and strict accountability to the people, on the part of every public officer. It will insist that all men holding office shall be $ honest, capable, and faithful to the Constitution2' l In regard to the other, more special, inte- rests of society, such as Morals, Education, l Agriculture and the Mechanic Arts, the Edit or hopes to render the < Banner" an active and efficient colaborer with all good men, for the welfare of the country. Thus, 10 the gc- E neral reader, of whatever pursuit ill life, as well as to the politician, the Bannern will endeavor to render itself interesting and use- ful. For the man of business 1t will contain the latest and most important intelligence l; and, on account of its extensive circulation, will be very favorable medium of adycr- Using.

 | With these general remarks, it is submitted to the observation, and commanded to the good will of the public. Its future numbers must be looked to, for the manner in which I.thc Editor may perform his duties. 1.-The Arkansas Banner'' is published on Tuesday morning of every week, on man. moth sheet of fine paper, with new type, AT THREE DOLLARS YEAR, PAYABLE IN | ADVANCE.
