JEFFE RS ON IAA R E P UB L I CAN. OF THE Jfeftcrsoiiian Republican A lew Weekly Paper, to be published at Strouds burg, Monroe County, Pa., and Milford, Pike County, Pa., simultaneously. "The whole art of Government consists in the ar of being honest. Jefferson. THE JEFFERSONIAN REPUBLICAN in principle, will be all its title purports, the rirm and unwavering advocate of the principles and doctrines of the democratic party, delineated by the illustrious Jefferson : the right of the peo ple to think, to speak, and to act, independent ly, on all subjects, holding themselves respon sible to no power for the free exercise of this riulu. z QoJ tieir Country, and her Laws, which they themselves have created. A free and untrammeled Press, conducted in a spirit worthy of our institutions, is a public bles sings a safeguard to the Constitution under which we live, and it snild be cherished and support ed by every true republican. Such, then, it is designed to make the paper now estab lished, and as such, the publisher calls up the enlightened citizens of Monroe and Pik to aid him in this laudable enterprise. The time lias arrived when the Press should take a bold und faarless stand against the evidently increas ing moral and political degeneracy of the day, and endeavor, by a fair, candid, and honorable course, to remove those barriers whioh section al prejudices, party spirit, and party animosity have reared to mar the social relations of men without accomplishing any paramount good. THE JEFFERSONIAN REPUBLICAN will not seek to lead or follow any faction, or to advocate and support the schemes of any par ticular set of men. It will speak independent !y on all State and National questions, award ing to each that support which its merits may demand, never hesitating, however, to condemn such measures, as in the opinion of the editor is justly warranted, holding as a first principle : " The greatest good to the greatest number." Believing that the great principles of democ racy are disregarded by the present Chief Ma gistrate of the Nation, Martix Van Burex, the JEFFERSONIAN REPUBLICAN, will decidedly, but honorably oppose his re-election to the Iiigh and responsible station which he now holds. It will firmly oppose the " Independent Trea sury" Scheme, and all other schemes having for their object tbe concentration in the hands of one man, and that man the President of the Nation, all power over the public moneys, a power, which, when combined with that vest ed in him by the Constitution as Commander-in-Chief of the American forces, Military and Naval, together wih an enormous official pa tronage, would render him more powerful than the Executive of the British Nation, and in short make our Government, de facto an Elec tive Monarchy. It will ever maintain that the welfare of ou Country and the preservation of her Republican Institutions should be the first and only senti ments of our hearts in the choice of our public j servants 5 that honesty, fidelity, and capability, are the only true tests of merit ; that all men are created equal, and, therefore, should alike rnjoy the privileges conferred on them by the Constitution without being subject to proscrip tion, or coerced by the influence of party. The columns of the JEFFERSONIAN REPUBLICAN will ever be open to the free discussion of all political questions, believing as we do. that there is no liberty where both sides may not be heard, and where one portion of freemen are denied the privilege of declar ing their sentiments through the medium of the Press, because they differ from the majority. The JEFFERSONIAN REPUBLICAN will ever take a lively interest in the affairs of Monroe and Pike, and of the Senatorial and Congressional Districts with which they connected. are The Farmer, the Merchant, the Mechanic, and the Laborer, will each find a friend in the columns of the JEFFERSONIAN REPUB LICAN. Due care will be taken to furnish its readers with the latest Foreign and Domestic News, and such Miscellaneous reading as will be both interesting and instructive. In short it is designed to make the paper worthy of an ex tensive patronage, both from the strictly moral tone which it will ever possess, and The efforts of the editor to make it a good and useful Family Newspaper. The JEFFERSONIAN REPUBLICAN will be printed on a super-royal sheet of good quality, and with good type.

"THE Ladies' Companion, established in May, 1.434 a popular and highly esteemed magazine of General Literature and the Pine Arts ; enibeliis.li with gorgeous and costly engravings on steel, and the Quarterly fashions ; and also with Fashiona ble and popular Music, arranged for the Piano Forte, aira Guitar. Since the publication- df the number for May, the demand for the Ladies' Companion has been unprecedented and beyond the most sanguine anticipations. At the commencement of the' vol ume an additional number of copies were printed, which was considered at the time adequate to sa tisfy all the orders which might be received, and leave a considerable number on hand for subse quent calls. The publisher is more than gratified in stating that the whole of an edition of six thou sand, five hundred copies, was completely exhaus ted before the issuing of the third number of the volume; and, consequently, he was compelled to reprint a second, edition of two thousand copies, making the circulation of the Ladies' Companion eight thousand live hundred, at the termination of the tenth -volume, fn consequence of this great and unparalleled increase of new subscribers, he has determined to commence the new volume for the ensuing year with thirteen thousand : hoping that he will thus be enabled to supply all the de mands for the Ladies' Companion, as well as those, disappointed in commencing with the tenth vol ume. The proprietor feels grateful for that en couragement which has been so lavishly bestowed upon his magazine, and at the same time he 'begs to assure the readers of the Ladies' Companion, that it is determined resolution to meet it with a corresponding liberality to merit its continuance. The work appears in beautiful new type, printed on the finest paper ; smoothly pressed, and neatly stitched in a handsome cover. The Ladies' Companion contains a larger quan tity of reading than any other magazine issued in in this country, and its subscription price is only three dollars a year, while the great combination of talent secured for the coming year will render it unequalled by any other periodical. Splendid Steel Engravings, prepared by Mr. A. Dick, ornament the work one of which accompa nies each number. These plates are entirely new, and are engraved at a heavy expense by one of the best arstists in America, expressly for the maga zine. The designs are selected with a view of in teresting the general reader, and enhancing the value of the work, for its superior pictoral embel lishments. It is with pride the proprietor announ ces that the Ladies' Companion is the only maga zine published, in which new and elegant steel plates appear regularly. Those accompanying other monthly periodicals, are generally firstworn out in annuals. In addition to the engravings mentioned, a correct plate of the Quarterly Fash ione .for Ladiesf will appear in the une, Septem berTJecember, and March numbers, independent of the usual embellishment. It is the determina tion of the proprietor, that these fashion plates' shall appear in a style hitherto unknown It lite rary character will undergo no change, as it will remain under the charge of the same Editors as heretofore. Articles from the pens of the most distinguished writers, will appear in the forthconv ing numbers, among which may be enumerated tho following: Mrs. Holland, Emma C. Embury, Lvdia II.

The Musical Department of the Ladies' Compa nion has ever commanded a large share of atten tion, and has been looked upon with no little in terest by its readers, and more especially the La dies, whom the publisher is anxious to please. It will continue to be a subject of more than usual care to him, and to the Professor under whose su pervision it is placed, to make that portion of the magazine deserving of the countenance of every lover of music. Tae Work in General. Of every department an equally careful supervision will be strictly exer cised by the Editors, and all appropriate expendi tures will be liberally bestowed, as it is the de sign of the publisher, with the aid of his contribu tors and the advice of his friends to make the La llies, Cpmpanion distinguished for the beauty and accuracy ot s typography, the variety and high tone of itsJiterary articles, the quality and value of its musicjlind the unequal splendor of its pic toral embellishments, and the accuracy of its quar terly fashions. The proprietor pledges himself to use all honorable means to maintainthe superiori ty which the Ladies' Companion has obtained. For five years he has steadily" pursued a course of improvement, and he flatters lnrneii mat 111s pre sent facilities are such as to give the w'Wk eminent advantages over ah other publications. v From the foregoing it will be perceived thal the Ladies' Companion embraces every department wiuun me range 01 jjeues-.L.cures anu thei' inUI ArUlwnplir Arts : and no exertions or expense will be dcemedtv- luu,lcllL) too great to rendor tho work equal to any other extant. The flattering and general testimonials of nearly every contemporary journal in the United States, and in fact, many on the other side of the Atlantic, have strongly asserted tho undeniable claims of tho Ladies' Companion to the support of the public generally.

Since, however, this destructive evil still exists, and neither the fear of God, nor of3earthly punish ment, can entirely put it down, it becomes my im perative duty again and again to caution the public against purchasing pills of a druggist, professing to be Brandreth's Pills for as under no circum stances is any of this class made an Agent, it fol lows of course that the Pills sold at such places professing to be Brandreths Pills are universally base counterfeits, highly injurious to the health of the People.
