T zit DAILY NEWS
THt unexampled success which has
thus far attended the News Estab
lithmenti encourages the proprietors to
spare ho ekertions to make the Daily
News a paper Which shall he second to
none of its cotemporaries in Philadel
phia. They will make it their especial
aim to impart a dignified and high inor ,
al tone to the paper, and to exclude from
its columns everything of an indelicate
or offensive nature. They have the most
ample resources, in every respect, to en
able them to give to its readers the latest
and most accurate local, foreign and do
mestic intelligence, and also full and re
liable accounts of the Markets and Com
mercial news generally.
The Daily News will continue to ad
vocate Whig principles as originally ex
pounded by the Fathers of the Consti
tution, and adopted by the acredited or
gans and champions of the Whig cause
at the present day. It will urge the
holding of a Whig National Convention
for the purpose of nominating candidates
for the Presidency and Vice Presidency,
and will battle, with all the ability, zeal
and energy it can command, to secure
the triumphant election of the nominees
of that Convention.
Sunset, like a golden shower, fell over I
the broad prairie; and the beautiful flow
ers that stood cheek to cheek in loving,
embrace, stretching away in long pro
eession ike a fairy army, far as the eye
could.reach, sent up their incense through
the air, brilliant with many-colored
sects; until it hung in a transparent
cloud upon the verge of the sky, where
the graceful curve of the horizon was
lost to the eye in the depths of the un
fathomable ether. Northward, the told
pure blue, steadfast and solid tie Mar
ble, stood like a wall bounding the vast
prairie ocean ; while in the east, the gor
geous pageant of the dying day-god was
reproduced in dim and broken light,
which whispered to the soul, sorrow and
farewell. From the south, a curtain
seemed to have been suddenly withdrawn
—so fresh and elastic looked the pale
green atmosphere, and so sweetly sigh=
ed the evening wind, as it stopped to
murmur to the wild bee, hid in the crim
son chalice of the trumpet-flower, of her
far-off forest tree, and remind her that
the hour of night and rest had come.
But another sound came also upon the
breeze—a strange, startling sound, in the
midst t hat vast flowery solitude,
where never yet, as it should scent, hu
man foot had crushed a flower, or hu
man voice disturbed the fairies in their
moonlight revels. Creak ! creak ! it is
the groan of a poor tortured wagon, over
laden and shrieking with thirst, as it
rolls slowly and painfully along. And
now there are voices—quick shouts and
lowrinonstrances, and a peevish min
gling of unhappy noises, making the
heart thrill with an undefinable dread—
noises which none but man, and the poor
helpless creatures he is set to guard and.
cherish on earth, can make—nor they,
save when the gripe of poverty, sick
ness or starvation is strong upon them.
A sad and miserable cavalcade, in
sooth ! First came a sturdy, iron-faced
man, roughly clad in frock and broad
brimmed straw sombrero, urging, threat
ening and coaxing, by turns, four lank
and jaded oxen, led by a poor, tottering
' and infirm skeleton of a horse. There
