SATURDAY COURIER.
WITITII LAaORST CIRCULATION IR THI WORLD 1 1
The publiberi ol this old established and universally
popular. Family Journal, would deem it supprogatory to
say a wore in commendation of its past or present excel
lence and uaelulneas. Its unrivalled and increasing
: circulation, (-over 85,000. is its best recommendation.
For the future, however, a determination to be riarr
in the van of the American Newapaper Weekly Press,
will ea II for increased expenditures and renewed attrac
tiona for the coming year, 1842, not the least of evhich
will be an improvement in the quality of the paper, and
addition nt popular contributors, embracing, we fully
believe, the best list to any sinnltr Journal in the world.
The Courier is independent in its character, fearless-
. ly pursuing a straight fiirwartl course, and supporting
n ht-M intereats ot the public .,. It is strictly neutralin
pliticii and religion. It will maintain a bightonoof
morals, and not an article will appear in its pagee which
should not find a plaoe at every fireside. It has more
than double the number nf constant readers, to that of
any other paper published in the couuiry, embracing
me oest lainiiies ot our nepubiic.

The freq-ienl recurrence to fundamental princi

duration of onr liiatitutiona, but lo the prenervalioo
of liberty. .One of these reaj pri'iploe, is, that
careful etammation of "the acttoni of agents who.

principles and actions ot those who conduct tne

much dissatisfaction whan we view Iba open and
unblushing violation nf every principle and pledge
bv which they weie elevated into power and place.
We read in the Inaugural address of Gen. Uarri
riton on taking the rems of power intrusted to him
by ihe American people, that M it wie the remark
of a Roman Consul in an early period ol that eels,

The Conventinn waa then aWy jsnd eloquently
we were told that new books were opened in Ihe
Treasury, ihMhe-eworwnra experrser Wfofmef
extravagance might be settled, and a new era
Government created. The largest outlays of Mr.
Van Daren $ administration never came up t
thirty two millions,' which President Tyler states
in his annual message is the present expenses ; snd
while the expenses of the Government exceed its
revenue so far, that the doors of Congress are be
set al this moment with the earnest supplications
ol Ibe Secretary of lbs Treasury fur money

ask Ihe good people of every parly, to consider
this lamentable stale of a flu ri; and in s spirit of
perfect candor inquire if there is not eomethpig
wrong which demands their scrutiny! With a
country aa beautiful and bounteous aa any that the
smile of Heaven ever bleesed with a nation o
freemen aa Ha inhabitanta al a period of jrolound
quiet when neither war nor (amine ha odesola
la led ihe one or destroyed the energies of the
other, we find the resources of Ihe country cannot
be made I y its rulers to yield a revenue sufficient
lor its expenses. A ini Heaven gave us the
country, but designing men havo given us rulers.
When these things press upoo the honest yeo
manry of our country, who in all agee and in all
countries suffer deeper, and longer, and more in
tolerably than any other class, they feel how wo
fully they have been betrayed, and how deep and
dirk have been the sins perpetrated against them.
One year haa not yet rolled around since Federal
men and measures were ia power, and the nation
has already suffered enough misery fur sn aire.
If their early sprint; bear auch blossoms, what will

States where the elections have occurred, have
demanded ol these Rulers the summing nf this
account, and called on these faithless stewards for
an account of their stewardship, bow have they
answered, and how have their answers been re.

have answered with the withering rebuke of thou

them. Another excuse that these taithle agents
give the people is that the Presidonl fail ante it,
has deceived them. If he had, it would only be
pay M'g them in their own coin.' Rut this is untrun;
for Mr. Tyler has only used his veto on a United
Stales Bank, and that in conformity with the viei
long established ard openly avowed. Hut admit
he had not vetoed the Bank, would that have
relieved the people f The people know that thia
would be uoelief from Ihe hardness of the times

leading measures of the Whig paiiy at Ihe late
Extra Session ol Congn ss aa eminently unconsti.
iuiionsf, and subversive of'the Republican princi

deep and decided reprobation which they have re
ceived from the soflrsges of an indignant people.
3. Retolted, That we approve of the bold, manly
and patriolic opposition to those measures by the
Democratic party in both Houses of Congress,
- 4. Retolved, That the results of Ihe recent ttec.;
lions may be regarded aa so many verdicts npon
the issues submitted at that session, and the decisive
manner in which the ballot box has been brought
lo the rescue of the Constitution and the public
liberty is well calculate'! to inspire confidence is
our free system of Govenirp-m. based unon and
sustained by tbe intelligence and virtue of Ihe
people.
