, of thcGentral Committee 10 the Deilocfacy of .fkansas, and ask for it a candid perusal.

 rne aecH wishcrS of the Banner, will perceive, at glance, the innumerable difficulties which

 have ntervened to delay all earlier publlca-

 tion of this paper; and to those who are hos-

 Tile to the enterprise, we have nothing to

 say. We would not endeavor to conciliate

 their opinions, were such a thing practicable, deeming that could we succeed, the result

 would not be worth the experiment

 To procure q press and all the materials

 of a complete printing establishment, is no

 small matter, to say nothing of the cost, and

 to put the whole in order for use-(espeeial- ly where every thing is new, as Is the fact with regard to the Banner,) Is no mconsid-

 erable labor All these things, however, have

 been done, and the first number is before the

 public for its impartial judgment We may

 certainly say, with truth, that ii is not inicr-

 or to any paper in the State.

 We are not unapprised of the fact, that the

 impression has gone abroad, that this paper

 is to be devoted to the interests of particular

 men; but more especially, that 1t Is to be

 SEVER paper. We deem it right to say, that

 we shall always take pleasure ill defending

 him from islander and detracton, as we will

 every other democrat that may be unjustly

 assailed and no eensures of the disafiected,

 or insinuations of the whigs, can ever pre-

 vent us from indignantly hurling back the foul islanders that may be uttered against our faithful public servants.

 The wings, and notch potch men, who are worse than whigs, by spreading the idea that this paper is devoted to the interests of Am prose II. Sevier, hope, when he is defended from unjust and ruthless assaults, as he cer tainly will be, to make that defence ine6eet- ual, by significantly cxclaming, 'we told you so, you sec the paper defends Col Se- vier" They hope by this dishonorable and wretchcd expedient, to close it's columns on prominent democrat, who has grown up with the State; man, to effect whose prostration, they are moving heaven and earth They have lavished more abuse upon him, than on any other of our public ser wants, and are they weak enough to suppose that the democracy of this State, now they in silence?

 Do the Wings suppose that they will be permitted to assail Democrats with impuni- y? They have done so for the last twelve months, and they may continue to do so, but not without an appropriate castigation.

 But whoever may have made the charge alluded to, or given 1t currency, did so without the shadow of foundation. We do not doubt for moment, that this unjust and false accusation owes its origin to whigs- that 1t has been industriously circulated by them, in all parts of the State and we now warn the democracy, that no efforts of our common enemy will be spared, to prostrate a paper, which has commenced war upon them at the outstart, and will continue it with determination and vigor, as long as they make pretentions to power-a paper that will op- pose their principles, from the greatest to the smallest. It IS, therefore, perfectly natural that they should desire to in1ict what injury they can upon it. But it will not avail-the Is too shallow to challenge a mo- nent's respect. We feel assured thu, u party IS proverbially generous as the Democratic, will sustain press established under their authority, and sustain it we'll.

 The Banner, as we have already intimated, | is not established to advocate any particular man or set of men; and those who say so, state an untruth, of the most glaring kmd- But t IS established for the purpose alone OF PROMOTING THE WELFARE AND INsURING THE SUCCESS OF THE ENTIRE DEMOCRATIC | PARTY OF THE STATE, and advocating, with out cessation, their great principles. It is established to resist the fatal doctrines of the whig party, by whatsoever name that party AdN Dc hiioNu var d8dlllSt d NdtlOndl | Bank, high Tariff, a distribution of the pro- ,eeds of the public lands, an assumption of he debts of the States, and to expose their frequent invasions of the purity of the elect ve franchise. All this the Banner will do. rom time to time, with whatever of ability an be commanded.

 To the democracy in every part of the State, we appeal we ask your vigorous sup port, in a cause dear to you all. The paper established under your sanction, Is now with iou; under your patronage ii wifi flourish, md Ill all times to come, stand faithful sen- incl over your rights, and warn you of the approach of danger. The flag of democracy s nailed to the mast-head, and by your en- there it will wave triumphantly, while you are vindieating the constitution of 'our country from worse than vandal spol- tions, and a republican government from the
