PROSPECTUS OF A LIBERAL xvi EWSPAPER, To be published in Charlottetown Twice a Week.

To the People of Prince Edward Island. ENTLEMEN; The subject upon which we have ,to address you is one that so closely concerns the common interests of us all, that we do not hesitate to approach you with all the familiarity ofa friend—all the boldness and manliuess of apirit inseparable from an integrity of purpose and firrri attach- .ment to the truth. We have to address you on the propriety of ,flslflbllslllllg in this Colonv a FREE and INDEPENDENT Paess; and in doing so, we shall avoid the indulgence ofthat flippant flattery and servile dissimulation so common to a Prospectus, which is as useless as it is disgusting. ’ To assert that you have no such Press, is to assert that which i'ou all know. It is notorious that the whole population oftbis island—save a miserable, arrogant and purse-proud faction, draining the life-blood ofthe country, and insulting its emaciated form—have riot the power of proclaiming their injuries and de- gradation, and establishing the tyranny and‘itifamy of their rulers. That tyranny has existed for years, and still exists in more than its original deformity, and nojournalist in the Colony has been found fearless and holiest enough to expose and condemn it. When you have to appeal to the Press ofanotber Country to assert your rights and chastise your oppressors, there can be lit- tle doubt oftli‘e partiality, vcnality and corruption of your own, or, rather, that which calls itself yours. There can be little doubt, that truth and justice have been battered for the smiles ofplace- men and the patronage of power, and that perfidy and aposracy by Borne are regarded with higher favour than constancy and integrity. To render such appeals unnecessary, we purpose to establish in this community a Semi-weekly Periodical, under the title of ‘

out fiattahtum.

To this step We are encouraged by your friends—the People's friends—whose solicitations and assurances ofsnpport are too urgent and flattering to be disregarded or unacknowledged. The Object ofthis paper will bc,emphatically, the defence of your rights, and the promotion of your interests. “ This is not [he “ cause of party, or affliction, but the cause of etcry man in Bri- “ loin." It will be its obJect toinvestigure and assail, ifnot rerne~ -dy, the evils which have grown out ofthe Laudocracy System, .a system whose principle is “ monopoly," whose effect is oppression; and wherever fraud or corruption may be found Ioexist,’1‘iis PALLAniun will show itself its most uncompro- mising enemy. To the Government, as at present constituted, Tn: PALLA- Dilliil will present an opposing front, because it is urrconstitu . tional and un-British—because it is the Government of an Oligarchy, and not that ofa Fans: PEOPLE, subsisting rather on the exercise of Military power than on the affections of the Colonists-—and because it is a living lie on the system of Colonial Polity conceded by Her Majesty to her Provinces in America. We believnnwe are sure——you desire an Administration based upon the uncorrnpted principles ofthe British Constitution; and you have as good a right to such an. Administration as the Pyo- vinces ofCauada, N-ova Scotin or New Brunswick. Though not so extensive in territory as either of her elder Sisters, the Island

ofPrince Edward has all the elements of national importance, in common with them; and the time has arrived when she should assert her claim to that position among these Colonies which her resources entitle her to maintain. And ifwe have life to execute the purpose we have in view, those claims shall not want an asserter or deend’er. “ ‘

AGRICULTURE AND THE FISHERIES.

We are aware that the full development of the Agricultural and Fishing Resrinrct-s ofthe Island is essential to its wealth and prosperity; and, in the discharge of our Editorial duties, these subjects shall often occupy our consideration.

NE‘VS.

A primary object ofthe PALLADIUii will be, to give a ready ab- stract ol'ilie latest News, from all parts ofthe World, as soon as it may~reuch our shores; and whenever it may be inconvenient to afford it through the columns of the regular publication, it Sop- plementary sheet Will be employed ‘

LITERATURE, SLC. The lovers oflcs Belles Lettre: shall ever find an amusing and instructive Miscellany in these columns usually devoted to such matters.

Tin: PALLADIDM will be printed on a sheet nearly as large as any ofthe Island Papers, and will he issued twice a week, on the interning: of Monday and Thursday. The annual subscription will be Fifteen Sllillings--exclllsivc'ofincidental expenses-—pay- able half yearly in advance. Thus it will he the cheapest Paper ever published iii the Colony.

The necessary Printing Materials will be received in the course ofii few weeks; and as little delay as possible will then be made before the issue ofthe first number.

THE FAMILY LIFE MEDICINES.

HE celebrated Lift: Pills and Phwnir Bitters. pre-

pared and sold by Dr. \Vm. B. Moffat, 375, Broadway, New York, may now be said to be the most respectably established and extensively adopted family medicines in the _United States. They have not only wou'thc sanction and recommendation ofall the candid and philanthropic portion ofthe medical profession, who have observed their invariable efficacy in general dcrangcmcnts ofthe stomach and bowels, and their aslonis hing effects in many varieties of acute and chronic disease, but \vliatis far better, these medicincs have recommended themselves, andt fully and fairly achieved the distinguished and now certainly pro-eminent position which they new occupy in public and domestic estimation. They are proved by their ,wcrks, and make no appeals to vulgar credulity.

,Ifthe proprietor were disposed to mike an iirvidious comparison be-

tween these self-established mdicincs and any others. he might confi- dently assert and challenge contradiction that there is no medicine known to the medical profession. or named in their books, concerning Which so many clear, unquestionable and conclusive evidences of use- fuliress and remarkable rurca are recorded as those which he can adducc ('nut‘eriiingthe Life Pills and Phoenix Bittcrs. lfit be admitted that suf- fercrs are the hostjudges as to whether a remedy has relieved them and restored them to health and strength. then is the evidence in behalf of these medicines decisive and irresistible. Dr. Moll'at is in possession of an immense accumulation of volurita-py testimonials from respectable persons and families in all parts of the Union, far and near, who give eir names and residence to the unsolicited statement that they have been completely and speedily cured of the following diseases, and of many others not here enumerated, by these Life Medicines alone, when other medicines had been long employed in vain, viz: Scrofula, in its most dreadfully advanced and destructive stages, when large ortions of the flesh and bones ofthe face had been destroyed; Piles of five, ten, twen- ty, thirty and even thirty-live year's standing; Rheumatism, both acute and chronic, of the most hopeless clrarnclcr;"1‘urgcscence of the Liver, end various other liver complaints; Bilious Cholic, and every conceiva- ble variety of bilious affections; lllarasmus 'l‘ahcs, or Decline, and Moras- mus Phthisic, or Consumption, in more. advanced stages than any on record; Dyspepsia, in all its chronic and acute vari‘ctics, with its fri-rlit- ful train of distressing symptoms; Worms of all kinds, both in children and grown persons. ‘Dirihma,both serious and bilious; Costiveiress, both habitual and occasional; Fever and Aguc, in its three principal varieties, and intermittent and rcrnittcnt fevers, ofall kinds; l-lypocon- driosis, and other extremely complicated nervous affections, \vith nervous dcbility in _ cncral; Salt Rheum, RunningIr Scald, and eruptive diseases generally, nit-ludng Enanlhcsis, Erysipclas or St. Anthony’s fire, and sallow,uuhealtby complexion; Palpitation of the heart. and Determine. tiou ofblbod lo the head, settled pains in the organs. limbs, bark. head and side; all'crtions ofthc bladder, kidriics, spleen, throat. and plcura ;

jaundice, dropsy and gout ; together with those general affections ofthe

system which arise from complicated causes.

The certificates of these rurcs arc in the proprietor’s possession, and will readily be shown to all who desire to see them. A small selection from them have been published in Moffnt’s Medical Manual. of which a new and enlarged edition is preparing for the press. The reason why those medicines, which in ordinary family use operate merely as mild and effectual laxatives, cure so great a variety of formidable (11502139585. that while as calharlit‘s. cleansing the alimentary canal, and relievingr the liver and the absorbent vessels of all impurities, they lay the foundation for the cure of all specific diseases, they are compounded ofunique and unprecedented variety oft'hcicc and exquisite ingredients, some of which are almost unknown to the profession, which cxcrLa spitific action upon many complaints, without in the slightest degree aflecting the general system, otherwise than as simple purifiers, when those complaints are not present. Beth thc Pills and the Bitters are mild and agreeable in their operations, causing neither prostrations nor nausea, and requiring rl‘t'itlici confinement nor peculiar dict. Their effects are uniformly to produce an immediate sense ofrcnovated health, and new life and vigour in both body and mind. They cannot be taken without benefit, and they should be procured both by individuals and heads of families, and con- stantly kept on hand not only as remedies but as preventatives of dis- case.
