Some historians like Tacitus Bur-
net aid the Abbe Raynal are never
satisfied without adding to their detail
of events the secrert springs and cru-
ses that have produced them. But
both heroes and statesmen amid the
-dinofarmsand hurry of business are
too ftnn necessitated to-invert the nat-
ural order of things; to fight before they
deliberate and decide before they con-
sult. A-statesmdn may regulate -him
self by events but ir is seldom that he
'Can cause events te regulate them-
selves by him. -It --often happens -too
both in courts asd cabinets that there
--are two things going together a main-
i .plot and-an under-plot; and' he that un-
erstands enly one of them will in all
-probability be the -dupe of both. A
mistress may rule awouarclu'but some
-obscure favorite may:rule a mistress.
'Doctor Busby was asked how'he eon
irived to'keep all his preferments and
--the head .jnaslcrshjpef Westminster
'School: through the successive but
terbulent --reigns ef Charles the first
-Oliver Cromwell Charies the-second
and James; he replied -"The fathers
.govern the nation themothers govern
-the fathers but the boys govern mo-
thers; and I govern Me.ooy."
Thb undersigned propose te publish in the town of San Feiite
de Austkc -a paper under the above title the columns of which
shall be devoted to the diffusion of political and ether useful
knowledge.
That this is the most eligible' location for such an establishment
is evident from the Tact that it is1 the point where the cummunica-
tions from the interior are earliest received; and. being a centra!
place papers may -be distributed-with facility to all parts of the.
country.
The Telegraph will be a tool te no party; but will fearlessly
expose -crime and political error wherever met with. Its column i
will be open to all; but the editors will reserve to themselves tn
ri"ht of rejecting such communications as they may deem un
worthy or improper to be inserted.
The Telegraph will ever be ready to advocate such principles
and measures as have a tendency to promote union between
Texas and the Mexican Confederation as well as to oppose every
thing tending to dissolve or weaken' the connexion between them.
The papers from the interior will be received and every thing
of importance to Texas will be immediately translated and in-
serted in this paper. Thus it will be rendered the most speed
vehicle for conveying to tne people the information most importan
to their interests. No pains will -be spared to make this paper
nteresting t all classes of readers.
By pursuing this course the editors hope to-render the peopl
of Texas a service so important as to secure a libera! pruronage.
