THE lubscriber proposes to publish at Calhoun, Anderson District, S.Cn by the first duy of September next, a weekly Journal of the above title, of respectable size, and rood paper, and fair typo, to be devoted to the dissemination of politi cal principles, in accordance with a strict con. struction of the Federal Compact, and the doc trine promiuVated by the Jenursonian Republican School. 'As consistent with those DrinciDles it wiltadvocato the Election of Wm. H.

"It will observe a mild and dignified tone, and address itself in plain language to the com mon sense of every class of citizens for whose benefit it is designed.'' It will be the uncompro mising opponent of that ridiculous system of pro scription for opinion's sake adopted by the present administration, and will maintain the true char, acter of an Independent public press.
