7 E StiE. undersigned proposes to publish in

 E the town of Helena, Ark. Fer. week. ly newspaper, to be styled a The Coasitu- toaai Journal" Tn presenting his claims to the patronage of the public, he can, in ad- vance do nothing more thansto promise on his part, his most faithful exertions to render his paper vehicle of useful and entertaining knowledge.

 Itis5a fact sadly attestsd by past .experi- ence, that the character of tho press has par taken too much of the bitterness and rancour of partizan feeling, which has unfortunately peryaded our whole country. In the great political canvass which has agitated the land, the maleVolent and angry passions of our na- ture, seem to have been too ffequently exer- cised and inm many cases, u disregard ofthe courtesies ofsocial intercourse, has been the consequence.

 Situated aswe are, no reason cpn be per- ceived, why tue people of Arkanrhs should be- come in any manner, party to the struggle for power, which is now going o1l. At this time, they have no voice in tie selection of Chief Magistrate, and instead of wasting strength in controversy, which, in any as- pect must prove unprohtahle to them, the en- lergies of us all should beunited in the pro-# HibetOd 01 0ht PSNuttdi dHu tDEdl iHLtFC5LS. We are seeking to become member of the great oonfederacy of the United States, and to be placed upon an equality with the.soye- reign States of the Union--the right to this equality guarantiedtolls by constitution of the United States, and 1t shqll be the busi- ness of the. < sJoURNAI''' to assert and maintain 1t.

 E No man can cast his eye over the map of our Territory without perceiying the natural advantages of our geographical position.-- Bounded on the east by the mighty stream, which has not ltappropriately been termed the great Father of Waters, and three other great atriyersstretching out their arms, through a region ofiunsufpassed fertility, with the 1 countless lakes and nagigable bayous, which dot almost every township, the trnth forces itself upon us, that we have only to be true to ourselves to attain the most elevated grade ln the scale of national prosperity. The stock and grain of the. North, and the great staple of the South, produce all identity, instead Of a diversity of interest, between the different parts of our Territory To cultivate kind and brotherly feeling, and to deyclope the re- sources of our wgole country, is US obviously the interest of us all as. 1t is gratifying to the heart ofevery true patriot and philanthropist.

 The Editor of the Joarnal will sedulousiy aim to suppress all local orsectionalj jealousy. He has higher aims in the establishment of a paper, than to endeavour to array one portion ofthe community against another. He thinks that the time has arrived, when there should be union of feeling, IS there certainly is of interest, among all the people of Arkansas. The general course Of his paper will be d. rected to the promotien of what he eonceives tabe the welfare of the whole Territory. He pledges himselfto advocate whatever meas ure he believes to be right, regardless of the source of it's emanation, and to hold up to public scorn, the corruption Of public men, no matter in whom tound
