A dtaire having baea aipratttJ, by many tndi vidaala in the country , to obtain Iba 8tar and Tran script ia aome other than Ilia daily form, it baa been determined loiwue a Weekly, under the title ot the Richmond cUari to contain the choice matter of (he Daily Evening 8tar anil 1'ranacript In this Protpectua ne profesaiont whatever will ba made; but those who ara curriout to aea what the paper will ba, ran do so; and thus be able to judge for themselves, without tbe customary string el on meaning promisee, to deceive ihem. Tha paper will Jbe purely a uewe aod miscellaneous, not a political f jsurnel; it being consider-! that the country haa Useii sufficiently aurleitad with politica, to answer Its needs far some time la com. The current aewa, foreign, domes ie and local, stories, a lit le iottry, with a broad clash of good natuied humor, will mainly eharaetrie iij the object being not le iostroct, aa mnch aa la keep its readers informed ot the worM'e chit-chat, and be a social eort of wel come weekly companion. Tha editor, in discharge of hit duty, goea by his owa notion only, and be invites every one's censure or coo'mendalion, free ly, but no one'a advice. But tbia, however, a mounts to nothing. Those who think they would like the paper, bad better see it, and then judge. Veiling what a pepet will be, ie eery much like de scribing tha comforta of a wall cooked eatldlr, of venison to. a moutitaineer, ot tha solid delights of roavt-beef and plum pudding to hearty English man. Telling ie not enough lasting is tha thing afisr all. Therefore those who feel inclined to taste of our paper, will peruse tha term following; those who don't may let it alone; it ie nobody's bu siness but Ihcirti and w shall sot quarrel with them for il. We desire all patties to ba setiefied, and it shall not be our fault if they are not so. That tbia may be the case, wa present the following; liberal terms: - For one year, $ 60 For ten months, n 00 For sii months, 1 60 For four months, 1 00 Persons subscribing for one year, shsll have the first number te'nu and il they are riot satisfied with the p iper, they ahalt ba released.

How man a widowed heart would it wring with angaiah how many orphan would it leave pareniless in the world?

I shsll not go into a discussion of this question now I when the subject fairly . ciimea up, I will give my , views upon it. aumre 11 to say, that whiln I am for pre . yiding for our national defence, I am also in favor of providing for the mural and intellectual Improvement of ooroeaolee IbO'l extending to them the means pf prova per 1. j a no column, as iar as is consistent with tha limits af the cnnstitalion.
