JVori7i Carolina Republican "IN a Government lite ours, the preservation of Liber- - tv depends, mainly, on a general diffusion of correct intbrmalioft emottt? the people. If the people be igno rant of their rights, bow can they guard them against encroachment ?)ur forefathers achieved freedom at the price of much blood and treasure, and we.tlieir eons, can preserve it only by. enlightened watchfulness. As intelligence and vigilance are our greatest safeguards, m iintorance and apathy are the sources of the most danger. " Power is always stealing from the many to the few," and the reason is, that the many slumber while the few are silently at work. No free people ever yet lost their liberties by oen assaults, but many have lost litem by secret encroachments. Ignorance among the people begets another evil, which, above all others, was the bane of the Ancient Republics; thai evil is MAN-WORSHIP. History lust lit 4 us, that, wherever iJwn-wjtfJiWptekPCffiiiTIiiTre political yirtutt.dieivBntt"torilifi faction spring hi rr currupti the principle of Liberty, as Idolatry does pure Relitrron. ' - When our forefathers established the present form of (overnmont, they loudly hoped that we would escape tlie fate of fimuer Republics, and.under tlie wine checks ami gtmrd of a written Constitution, enjoy, tlirough nil time to come, tlie inestimable blessings of Freedom. But uow, at the end of tlie abort period of forty-six yeaix, what is our condition ! Wo liave already reached an alarming crisis in our political afiairs,-tlie very prin ciples ot the Constitution are in imminent peril. We are in lite mslst of a revolution, silent, and, as yet blood lean, but still rapid in its progress, the barriers of tlie Constitution arc broken down and trampled in the dust, all- the powers, whether of the sword or of tlie jmrse, are ostceiitratuig in the Federal Executive ; and even Congress itself is oubitrippexLin tlie rnce of usurpation." It is time for the pcopls .to. awake, from their apathy, they will awake too late their Government will be changed, and their Liberties gone. For the purpose of aiding' other papers in the State in dimming correct "information among the peiple, and to arouse them to a sense of their danger, it is proposed to pnblish, at the Office of the Western Carolinian," a nswr under tlie title which stands at the bend of this Prospectus to be piiuled on. a large size sheet, in oc tavo fin, of sixteen paras, corresponding in siza with tlrtf Examiner," edited ' in Fhiladclphia, by Condy lUgueL t.
