'Prospectus for the Second Ye r.
At the close of his second volume, th
magazine. having been commenced on the
first of January, 184 I, the publisher finds
himself irresistibly) called on to express "the
latisfaclion and gratitude with which he
has been filled by the brilliant and u iex

the unbought unsolicited testimony oil the
press may be received as unswayed by
partialitv and unbiassed by friendship! the
efforts of contributors and editor have been
satisfactory to the public and accepted fas
fulfilling the promises made for them at

The! publisher undertook the work With
a firm conviction that the great city f of

could be no impossibility of success with
sufficient capital, perseverance and
right, system of4 management both by
lisher and editor: stimulated by this
viction he embarked in the enterprise

It has long ceased to be necessary
reasonable, that we should speak of
Columbian as an experiment. At
events, it is now an experiment subst

a basis as any similar journal in the world.

With the aid of these 'contributors, (ol
whom it is needless to say one word in the
way :-pf commendation.) and of numerous
others perhaps equally meritorious if less
celebrated, who have promised us their
support, we flatter ourselves th;t, as a liter
ary vyork, the Columbian need be undergo
apprehension of being excelled.
But what we have done is already be
fore the public, who will not fail ro judge
us with impartiality; and in respect to what
we intend to do, it will be both wiser and
more becoming (altho less fashionable) not
to boast We may be permitted to assure
our friends in brief, however, that we have
matured numerous plans (for the third vol
ume) with which we ft el confident they will
be pleased I t is our purpose to put forth
every energy ; and it will be no fault of our
own if the Columbian! shall not be found at
least equal to any magazine, of any class
or price, in America.

SUBSTANCE OF A SPEECH
Delivered by Henry I. Toole, at the
Court House in Washington, Beau
fort county, on the 5th of March,
1845.
Gentlemen- It is scarcely four months
since I addressed the people of Beaufert on
public affairs. I am again before you with
a similar purpose. I appear howeverjin
quite a different capacity. I then spoke for
another, and therefore spoke with freedom:
1 now speak for myself, and it becomes trie
therefore to speak with modesty.
The great contest in which we were so
recently engaged was in several respects the
most imposing which our republic has wit
nessed. It was so from the number enga
ged, from the discipline of their array,
from the great' questions discussed and de
cided, and from the remarkable closeness,
and doubtfulness of the issue. And it de
rived peculiar interest from the fact that it
was generally conceded to be: the last
throw of a very remarkable mar, who has
attracted the eyes, and disturbed the poli
tics of the country for a quarter of a centu-ry-j
He had during this time by the fas
cination of his manners, not less than by
the splendour of his eloquence, and the
boldness of his action, acquired a-personal
(as distinguished from political) influence
and popularity among the sub-leaders of
the people, hardly equalled in our history.
The attachment of his partisans every
where partook of a sentiment of personal
devotion: to an extent, 1 may be permit
ted" to say, scarcely sale in a free govern
ment. But I come to bury Caesar, not lo
praise him," or to abuse him. Whatever
of pleasure or of excitement I enjoyed in
the chase of the Lion; I should derive nei
ther from kicking his dead carcass. It
was a Barbarian who thrice dragged the
dead Hector around the walls of I roy,
and I know too well the gentlemanly sen
timents of the Beaufort Democrats to sup
pose that I should secure their applause by
thrusting my tittle dagger again jand again
into the body of one already slain; as I
appreciate too highly the courtesy of those
Whigs who have done me the honor to
come here to night to repay their kindness
by unnecessarily wounding their sensibili
ties. To return Against this statesman
thus abounding in personal fascinations
thus eloquent, thus bold, thus gifted, the
opposite party, that to which I have the
honor to belong, presented an antagonist
comparatively new to the politics of the
country, who had scarcely taken his de
grees at college when his opponent was
first a candidate for the Presidency; with
few of those oratorical arts and personal at
tractions which distinguished his competi
tor, a man of useful rather than showy tal
ents, distinguished indeed by sound practi
cal sense, by steady application to business,
by a firm moderation and uncommon dig
nity. Such were the disadvantages under
which the Democratic parly went into the
contest And yet we triumphed. But if
any person, W7hig or Democrat, believes
that this was a personal triumph- a tri
umph of Polk -he is sadly deceiv
ed. It was nothing like it. It was a tri
umph of Democracy nothing more no
thing less a grave and solemn decision of
the Confederated Republic in favor of the
measures and principles announced as
watchwords by the Baltimore "Democratic
Convention, against those announced by
the Baltimore Whig Convention all of
one set against all of the other set of prin
ciples and measures nothing less noth
ing more." Now "we are apt to shut our
eyes against a painful truth," and hence it
always occurs that after a great struggle, a
dozen excuses are invented by the van
quished to explain the cause of defeat: ev
ery thing is alleged but the truth: just as
when a horse is beaten, the owner will
never admit that it was fairly done; foul
play among the riders the bad order of
the tracK paritaiuy oi juuges ana me
like are alleged and for a time believed.
So in the matter before us, we hear of 'Ab
olilionisrn and Nativeism and the Empire
Club. But, gentlemen, these are all after
thoughts. The simple and naked truth is
that under tne greatest aisaavantages ue
mocracy triumphed. The result furnish
es, nothing, for personal gratulation to Mr.
Polk except that he worthily bore, as ;he
was at Baltimore pronounced worthy lo
bear, the banner. " Nor can there be any
ground of personal chagrin to Mr. Clay.
If a fauh lies at his dbbr it is that his part
was overdone he more than did his duty
ah error, if error it be, explained by the
ardor of his temperament I say this is nc
false spirit of generosity: I speait wnai
believe to bo the truth. 1 he victor; can
afford to be generous, it is jaid, but 1 do
solemnly declare that if I believed the gal
lant spirit of Mr. Clay chafe tho' it must
under defeat, did suffer the pangs of per
sonal mortification, whilst it diminished
my respect for the man, 't would cloud my
joy at the result. 1 gave as hearty a vote
for our Ticket -as any man who went to
the polls last November, but I gave it notrVry0ro
jor Polk so much as for Democracy not
against Clay so much as against Whiggery.
We, brotherDemocrats o! Beaufort, have no
triumph over our friends, the Whigs of
Beaufort our principles duly have pro
stronger than theirs. What those pnnci

of the people, and esptctaliy of tny
friends. My hands are. now . untied, and
1 shall not tie them. But, will I sub
mil to a Convention Yes, assuredly
1 will, ij such is the will oj the people. II
the people will a district convention, and
they are fairly represented, and their will
fairly expressed, most assuredly 1 will sub
mit to it. J have always said so: I say so
now. I am no man to oppose myself to
the wisjies of the people in such a matter.
But lam opposed to all secret dealing to all
attempts to defraud the people of their just
voice in such cases. When their true
voice is heard 1 bow in humble submis
sion. Such is the duly of a patriot; but it
is equally the duty of a patriot to oppo:e ail
attempts to misspeak (to spurijy, it t may
coin a word) the honest voice of an honest
people. This is plain language. Let me
repeat, to prevent all misapprehension,!
that am in the hands oj the people. . li
they wish a Convention so do I. If they
call a Convention I will abide its decision.'

plain of the last District Convention, and

submit myself again to any Convention.
