PROPOSALS,


lJ For publishing Daily Morning Journal in New
York civ, under tbs lille OF The NEW YORK TIMES
AND COMMERCIAL IN'PELLIGENCER, 10 be
devoted 10 Politics, News, aud Commercial lntelli-
gence.
The well known fact that the Republicans Of This eiiy
destitute Of an organ 10 pTomnlgaie their opinions,
and advocate their principles ~ connection with Tie De-
ocrac Press Of the interior, has been subject OF re-
iIersied complaint aud regret. Circumstances Of Ia
vorable nature eonsprng measures have been adopted
to commence the publication Of the Iimts and Com
merc,ai inteHigener upon footing Calculated 10 en-
sure its Independence sid perinanency
The political character Of tbs Tunes and Commercial
IaeLgeneer will be strictly Drmoeraftc Republican IL
will adhere the principles Of the party which brought
into existence and sustained the late administrator u
will labor define the ancient land marks and 10 MAIN
tain in their prime vgor the ancient Usages OF the party
which, whilst they we're observed, rendered nvinci-
bic, and secured simple and constitutional administIa-
ton Of public affairs, at the time that they pro-
NOTED in the highest degree the Undivided welfare aud
happiness Of the people.
In marking this line, which both duty and incli-
nation will prompt pursue, We desire TO be UNDER
stood coceving that certain measures and points oil
policy entertained by 4 portion OF the friends OF the
present general administration, form no part OF the Re
publican creed Of binding influence but as mere ques-
tons Of expedency rest upon debateabe ground, and
may be opposed according to the dictates OF conscience
and Judgment. This paper will therefore be found IN
opposition TO the "uned eIpedienfs OF the day The
country needs repose from the sgtaons or demsgogues
and empires II is time that aperod OF depression I'M
exapled in its duration, and in its disastrous conse
queDces should give way 10 the return Of confidence
and the resumption of the ordinary pursuits OF trade and
industry II the OF the government shall be
found variance with the suggestions OF sound policy,
brought into collision with public sentiment, ever
consideration for the public good cries aloud Tor their
abandonment To convince our rulers, that they mis-
take, sense, the indications Of the public will
and TO embody the scattered rays OF that will IN SEN
sble and tangible form, will be deemed to within
the legitimate province Of our Journal and 10 compose
prominent objects in the prosecution Of our design, OF
great importance and interest to every class OF the COM
munly.
We cannot resist the conviction that the Republican
party Of this State has been placed towards its oppo-
nents in false positiona position which exposes Il to
eminent hazards, which is daily and hourly weakening
It's energies, and which, in its threatened prostration,
surrounds country with the worst dangers ever sp-
pretended from the sscendency OF federal misrule
When we contemplate the havoc which has been made
with the Republican legons in the short space OF eight
or months, and weigh the certain indications OF Re-
evolutionary movements in public sentiment, in states
where elections pending, we cannot regard It as
either safe, just honorable to devate further from
the "republican track" marked by the footsteps Of
those distinguished Presidents who have in times past
secured the triumphs OF Democracy feel npelled TO
reject the Councils which bring nothing but defeat
and humiliation. The Times and Commercial Iafsih-
gcneer will therefore endearcr to expunge the heresies
which have been interpolated into creed and to
rectify the into which they had betrayed our
friends. To the genuine cause OF Democracy we are
sincerely welded aud there Is no power whilst re-
mains pure, that divorce affections or iervor
from it, But from the spurious faith Of the Loco-Foeos
and desructives sought be engraed upon our prn-
cples and TO be substituted IN our embraces we turn
with adherence and disgust. The Times and Com
mercal Iaiegeneer will labor TO restore the Democra-
CIV again to its former vantage ground-to re-organ7e
its broken and dspred legions-to rebuild its crumb-
ling temples aud re-establish its ancient ordinances
and to behold it again fourshing and predominant re-
fectng the moral influence Of this great republic abroad
ard protecting the interests OF ITS numerous people at
home. We shall rejoice to be permitted to contribute
our efforts to this consummaon. II our labors shall
prove frucss admonitions shall not be wanting.
We will make one more attempt 10 put the good ship
before the wind and to save her gallant crew and pre-
cous freight II afterwards the madness OF the few
shall disappont the hopes Of the many, and the voice OF
destiny shall proclaim that /" ROME MUST FALL, heapen
and carrh shaft rritness thar tcc are innocent
The Times and Commercial Infelhgeneer, will re-
cognze the organization Of the Republican Party IN this
City as was effected the meeting Of the City Hall
on the evening Of the I'd Of January, 1888 The reso-
lutions and address adopted that OCCASION will be
referred 10 as consonant Republican principles and
adapted to the present crisis In our public and political
| affairs
