Havingstated in a tromer advertisment, that said boy pro bably had a free pass and w’as making his way west, I was mistaken, and have recently learned that he has been in Providence Settlement in this county, ever since he left in April last, and has been passing him self as a w hite man, by the name of James R.

Said boy will doubtless make liis way into some other settlement, in this, or one of the adjoining coun ties, assume some other name, and again try to pass himself as a white man, having succeeded so well, in his first attempt.

THE undersigned proposes to publish a Dem cratic Newspaper, under the title of “ The Index^:') to be edited in Washington city, and printed in exandria. District of Columbia, three times a week during tlie session of Congress, and twice a week the remainder of the year, at five dollars per annum. The first number to be issued about tlie 1st of Sep tember next. There is a demand for a paper of this description at the point indicated. The call is creditable to tlie vigilance which dictates it, and shows a proper an. preciation of the exigency of the times. The criti. cal condition in which we find the great and perma nent interests of the country, resulting from an ex traordinary combination of men and circumstances all antagonist to the just and abiding principles of the Democratic party, and the injury likely to ensue from a system ot measures which there is every rea son to believe that combination is about to establish^ will, we doubt not, insure the co-opcration of the true friends of the Constitution, in all w’ell directed efforts to resist it. So far as the abilities of gentle men high in public confidence can be employed to effect this object, we have an assurance of their aid. and rely upon the Republicans of the surroundinff country for a corresponding evidence of there ap’- probation and support. We look upon the present as the most important juncture for the re establishment or final overthrow of the Republican party, which has occurred sincp, the termination of the last century. The celebrated report of Mr. Madison of that day asserted the true creed, and sustained it by an argument which has never been answered, and is unanswerable. The external party badges of fomer times med not no\v be recapitulated. The intrinsic grounds of separation at the first still exist; and the princi ples which animated and separated the Federal from the Republican party have not remitted in their operation. A fundamental ditference of opinion in the interpretation of the Constitution, and as to the powers of the General Government, severs now, as in earlier times, the latitudinSrian from his oppo nent. Parties in their ascendency have fluctuated alternately; it is a fallacy, therefore, to say that cer tain points of difierence being removed, the Federal party, as such, is extinct. The opposing principles of construction, above referred to, arc de.sjined to remain in permanent conflict as long as our Govern- j ment exists. I A crisis is at hand. The shadows that ha.ng over i the face of the future must soon pass away, andtlien I we sdiall knov,- whether John Tylek of Virginia u ' politicaliy a frieml or toe—whether he will, in th? liour of extremity and danger, stand up for the Con stitution and his olt-repeated ami long-cherislif,l principles, or yield to the iutluence of those who de sire to use, but will never sustain him. “ He is ou: foe, who does his country Avrong.” If he proven friend, we must del end him ; if a fbe. condemn hiin-- as we go tor measures, not men ; anil v,'c e.s{im;i(e and meas’are by tiie Democratx standard ot Tho.y!ai Jefi'erson.

Tfie undersigned has now tlie gratification of be ing able to assure the friends of the paper, and of the cause in which it is engaged, that the Lincoln Republican is now placed on a sure foundation; and that nothing is wanting to ensure its long continua tion, but the exertions of its triends ; and he Avould take this occasion to call upon them to bestir them- selv’es in its behalf He cannot deem it necessary to say more than that the Lincoln Republican will continue to pur sue the course it has heretofbre marked out. Its doctrines are, and wnll be, the doctrines of the Re publican School of ’98 & ’99; and it w'ill, as hereto fore, endeavor to show’, that every departure from them, in the administration of the affairs of the Go- v^ernment, is subversive of the rights of the States and of the liberties of the people ; and therefore, it is only by a strict adherence to them, that those rights and those liberties can be preserved. These are the opinions of the undersigned; and so long as the paper remains under his control, such sliaH be the doctrines it will endeavor to inculcate. Though not personally interested, the undersign ed cannot retrain from calling on the opponents of a National Bank, a high and ruinous Tariff', a Dis tribution of the proceeds of the Public lands, an as sumption of the State Debts by the General Go vernment, and of Abolitionism and all its horrors— on the friends of State Rights Republicanism, the uncompromising opponents of all the dangerous doc trines of Federalism, to rally around and sustain the Republican presses of the country. For, it is obvi ous, that to the supineness of the Democracy in this respect, and to the vigilance of the Federalists, may be traced the defeat of the Republican party at the late elections; and in a change of conduct, andin that only, may the Democracy hope for a change of power.

The Cultivator was established to iiiipro'^’’ and elevate the Agriculture of the country; give a proper tone to the morals and mind ol t.; farmer; to show him the dignity and imporlnncf his protession ; to store his mind with useful kiio- ledge, and convince him that while all classes ar^ and must be more or lees dependant on each otbe' he alone of the wliole can make any near approaf^ to independence. If there i^ one tiling morct;^ > another, wdiich in this country gives a man supf' ority over his fellow men, it is knowledge; aivJ knowledge,—knowdedge wliicli is essTntial to t'" success of the farmer as to other men,—it is thet sign of the Cultivator to aid in imparting. The volume for 1810, is filled entirely f'’ Original CoMMrxiCATiONS, embracing articlesin^® about 300 Corre^^poudents, from almo^ every Sta: in the Union. If an increase of subscription beyond any dent in the history of Agricultural Journals,—!*’ almost tjnanimous voice of the public press inf^’ favor,—if the multitude of private yet flattering timonials we have received, added to a circula^'-’ amounting the first year to Twenty-two Tiiof3A^>^ may be admitted as evidence, then w’c have certa*® ly most abundant reason to be gratified with cess which has attended the Union of the and the Genesee Farmer.
