If a newspate r is to be of any service if it is to ell'ect any useful end. it is requisite in ihe first place that ;ts character should insure trie conlidenec of community. In order to attain his character, conductors of Journals must rigidly adhere to truth aoid all misrepresentations discard violent expressions calculated to advance paroivine- rmulicity to any matter ol mnment. li v adhering to such rules, implicit conit i., .0 i,n . o, ..,;.,. 1 . r.,i....i ......1 ..... 1 1 1 ' ; 1 ' ,,. i .'1. v.. 1. .iiiii .. i.n. i .111.. 1. npressed, and truth circulated. State of Indiana will have made a rmus movement the character ol her p; rioclieals will be that of faithful recoriiers of political transaetians can ful iuv p. raters ot tiie existing state ol liunirs and coition: diffuses of existing information. Her editors will be pledged to truth under the penalty of disgrace; and falsehood w ill be frowned down promptly by ail parlies. Naked facts will be before the public and. arguments from these facts the weapons of party. Py this means, community will be a.-eurately informed and proper! epared to ict upon its mforpitqiaicu I'J " '. . iqma'mn i his ruucii in ia lerence to tae press considered in a national point of view a few words in reference to its local tendencies. State legislation frequently fails to r.i"et the entire wishes of its subject. Under such circumstances appeals are sometimes made fi nun the sovereign power to the people, of an exciting natu re. Such means to :: ceo ni; ll a rope; ol o i i ressiv e aw: our committee i.eem highiy mo;. inJ, 1 ; inasmuch as they- are calcula'ed to r:.ri a spirit ol sedition mid resistance to 1 it, civil roithorii ics of the Common weal'h. nl'eg.tlier incompatible with th." v; Ifarc and peace of society. Your committer would therefore suggest the nropri 'ty ol adopting such measures a ; to on tmv y ti repress seem best the most etleetual' indamatorv publications of this nature; reserv mg to editors ;n ml times th.e rieht to discuss ihe propriety or impropriety ol laws in a fair and. patiiotic manner. Newspapers, considered in a local light, have another important ed'eel they reach the lire sides of individuals are read in their families; and hence should be replete with useful matter, chaste moral sentiment, instructive articles; and free from vulgar language, personal altercations, irritating albiiions to neighborhood transactions, and every thing that may not in some degree be direclv benetiei?.! to their readers. We would therefore suggest that such resolutions may be adopted as will insure a portion of the editorial labor of the State to be devoted to common schools, education ic; and by means of which all vulgarities, slanders, and irritating controversies

Yuurcouimittoe would also advise that an organization ol the editorial corps be kept extant, wit.i a view the belter to enioree and amend our system. iii conclusion, jour corninii.ee tt-'ern u a d.itv which the convention owes itself, to a.iopi sucti resolutions as sn-ill secure ; 10 our journals mai recompense m wnien, a riuid adhcrenco to the regulations diove saLTested, liiey most uuuemabl merit.

Usi lidness cf the p :e used in relVrein as he is an aeknou ! cd member of the editorial corps. J'rsnrrif, That no man should hold the responsible station of editor, with his name emblazoned fotth to the public as the conductor of a press who is notoriously desiiiuie ni moral worm, personal respon-. sihility and talent, and incapable himself of performing editorial duties 7iV.nofei, That the establishment of newspaper presses, by clubs of aspirants to oliiee. for the accomplishment of their own sel.lsli designs, placing at the heads of such presses irresponsible persons r. tie ir tno-ith pieces, is one of the greatest ciiisrs that can be indicted upon any communi'v, and should be discountenanced, not only by th.e whole editorial corps, but by every good citizen and that where presses are notoriously thus established, the editors of Indiana will not extend to them even ihe courtesy of exchange. Rrwh-e U Tlmt it is the duty of editors! to take a high moral stand; and instead of, cterin r for vitiated m, hi, e r, nneiiie. , ho v ! pnoiie r.ppelite, tlu-y should endeavor to give a hedihiui iiction and useful direction to the public mind. licio'c , That the publishing of prospectuses for eastern journals, and thus giving to them circulation to the exclu.-ion ot western journa Is, tends to lessen the patronage and cripp the energies of the western press, to discourage improvement in mechanical skill, to prevent th.e devotion of talent to the editorial department; and that the editors of Indiana will not publish such prospectuses except as ordinary advertisements. IiC;,f!rrJ, That it is the interest and duty of the people to give a liheial sup port to the newspaper press, so that it may not he its po. ers driven ty poverty to prostitute to subsenc the unhallowed of demagogues and office-seek purposes ers; but. oti the contrary, that it may devote its energies to the public good, trample on corruption, diffuse intelligence and true knowledge, allav public excitement, guard carefully the rights of the people, expose error, and infuse into the public mind a love of country and devotion to its best interests. I!r so .'(.' , That low appeals to tho passions of community in regard to legislative eini tm-nts, calculated todistmh the order, happiness, and harmony of society, by placing the law-making power in an oppressive light, and by such means sewing ihe seeds of sedition, are unworthy the dignity of the press, and the usefulness of its objects and that any editor who shall make liis paper the vehicle of such mob-stirring appeals, shall be discoun tenanced bv the profession. .V.s-err . That any editor who sha! be guilt - of falsehood or misrepresentation, know ingiy, and upon any subjects whatever, or who shall circulate exciting rumors without stiong grounds of evidence that such rumors are well founded, shall, bv so olfcnding, be deemed without our pale, and be discountenanced by the profession. 1,'isolvr!, That any editor who uses unbecoming epithets or vulgar language in his paper, shall be discouutenaiided by the profession. Resolved, That inasmuch as legislation seems to have failed in preventing the practice of treating with spirituous liquors at our elections; and viewing the custom

as iraiighl with dangerous consequences,
