With the aid of such an indvidual. whose undivided attention will' be sedulously devoted to editorial duties, the undersigned flutters Mffle.. self that he will have it in his power to ndeeia his pledge, when he first became sole proprietor of the Star, to present to the public, a paper Worthy of the support of the enlightened and patriotic citixens of North Carolina. i I o sustain bun in this enterpru& by which he necessarily incurs (to him) heavy addition al pecuniary resposibility, he confidently relics ri the exertions of his friends and tlie lilicr of those who are battling in the same great cause . 6T constitutional Tilieny. lie ap peals to them to aid in extending the circulation ef his papery and doe not, for a moment, doubt that they will cheerfully and efficiently extend such co-operation as will not only increase the subscription in a ratio equal to the augmented expense of conducting his journal, but in such degree a to enaWo him shortly greatly to en large bis sheet, and publmh it semi-woekly, at leaxt during tho session of the Legislature. There will be no change in the political com plexion of the Star, as will be seen by reference to Jhe address of Mr. Outlaw, to which we invite attention; ' THOS. J. LEMAV. ' The subscriber has become one of the Editors of this paper. To speak of one's self, is a difficult task, without at leust the appearance of egotism. It will be expected, however, from the conductor of a public journal, that the community should be informed ot bis pouUcaf principles, These be will proceed to state es briefly aa possible. lie has always, since be nad any connexion -. .... with politics, been a republican according to the principles of the Kentucky and Virginia resolutions. lie will, therefore, oppose all usurpation of the riqhl J'jeserved to the States and to the people, whether on the part oi the bxecutive, Congress, or the Judiciary. He is in favour of a strict construction of the Constitution, and will resist all construo tive powers, save those which are ."necestary and ' ArsAer" to carry into elocution those specifically granted however .they be rccom mended on the score if expediency. 1 tie oonstitutioo having secured to the bet- pie the right of electing their chief executive magistrate, and representatives in Conatess "and in tlie mate Legislatures, he wm resist ail aUempU to mtcrfcrc with or controut tne exercise oi una niga constitutional., pnvi- lege, whether that interference come from the President or any subordinate functionary.

He will sutmort he pretensions of H irfclll Em WHITE of Tennessee,-for the next Presidency, not because, he concurs in all of his opinions; "or1 approves atl hiii acta; tut lauae he believes he is a man of ability, houesty and independence, - In what manner he will dlschnrge the du tie of the station which he has assumed, it does not become him to my'.'.

V Whilst be will ever have too much self-re spect to descend to low and vulgar abuse, he will speak or public men and public measures with perfect freedom. , His honest convictions and deliberate opinions he will boldly promulge at an nasaro, In conclusion, be would remark, that ' the crisis ijregnant with important conseauencej. The rapid strides of the. executive to concen trate all the power of the Government in hia own hands, his bold interference with ths elec tive franchise, and hi indecent and dange rous attempt to nominate hi successor, call for prompt, united and vizorous resistance. We ar still free; but the chain with which to fetter .our limbs, ar already forged.

It is not to be concealed, that we contend against odds. The patronage of the Government is in the hands of our opponents, and past experience proves that it will be freely used to promote the cause of tli executive favourite. - But we should neither despair nor despond. Our cause is a righteous one; it.is the can of popular rights, of the- freedom of the elective franchise, of constitutional liberty; The people are honest.

The principles of Jefferson and Jackson!

IJow, then, can the Executive maintuin the principles of both, or 'administer the Government according to botht The thing is absurd. ' Out this is not all. Mr. Jefferson was uni formly opposed, to the United flutes Bank. Gen. Jackson's opinions on that subjnet, if we are to collect them from his messages, tircj that the present institution iu unconstitutional and insxpedicnt; but that- he eoukl.n the- pleni tude of his wisdom, have framed a lull, not on ly free from constitutional objections, but which would have -aided -th Government in Uie. ad ministration of its fiscal concerns nay, he ac tually recommended a Treaxury Bank, which, by tlie way, no body that we have seen, ever seems to uave undcrutood. linfortunately, too, fur bis Excellency, one of those very individu al, (Mr. Madison,) according to whose princi ple he u to administer tlie uovernment, actu ally sanctioned the present Bank, which the old General regards as such a horrible mounter. Yet he will administer the Government accord ing to the principles of "a Jefferson, a Madison and a Jackson. Again. We believe both Mr. Jefferson and Mr. Madison were opposed to the system of In ternal Improvements by the Federal Govern ment. They not only oonosed the svstem ron- enuiy, nut entire v. with t ie axeenlion of the supposed to bo a i peculiar case, on account TOT some provision in tne aecos oi cession or Uie public lands. Han.

We were both surprised that such opposition should have been made, and at the quarter whence it came, viz. from Mr. Drown, Mr. Kingr-of Ala. and Mr. Grundy, of Tennessee. Did these geutlemcn deem, the subject as too unimportant to require the investigation of a special committee, or were they influenced by party considerations! k Tlie first can hardly be supposed.

A Urge and repeililc luwluis vi the cili aeni of this city and of tlie, adjacent country, took place in the Court Houx on last Satur day, The Iiiteudant, W. R. Gilts, Esq. was callod to the chair, and Cass.' Mult, Esq. appointed Herrrtary. Tlie meeting was ad dressed by Judge Civtaox, in a apecch eonaiderabl length. He depicted the present situation of this community, cut off from the great markets of the world, and destined, unless something was done, to sink still lower in the scale of prosperity. The impetus given to industry, by the recent" expenditure of public money, would, be said, soon, cease; and it became, therefore, the iinnerioua dulv of the ed for consideration. Which would be Uie most likely to induce capitalist to invests their money! He aigued that the irtaj to W'ilkins's Ferry, or, in oUier words, to Petersburg, must continue to be the great mail route through the Southern States, as well i tliat of travellers. There was a continuous line of rail road . com munication, either actuatjy begun or in contem plation, from Petersburg, through Itichmond, &c. to Washinirton City; from thence to Philadelphia, and thence to-New York. Hav. ing shown that this must be the most profitable, he next proceeded to show that it was most likely to be eflcctcd.

This surplus, which MrC. estimates now' at from 21 ot 22 millions, and in the coming year to 30 millions, is to b deposited in Banks of his selection by ths President, and is subject to be withdrawn at hi pleasure. This will give him a direct and powerful influence over the banking capital of the country, will wed the executive power and the money power of Uie nation; and no prudent statesman can reasonably augur from such an ill-omened connection any thing but eorrup Uon. -. f ....
