PROPOSALS,


NJ For publishing Daily Morning Journal IN New
York city, under the title Of the NEW YORK TIMES
AND COMMERCIAL INTELLIGENCER, TO be
devoted TO Politics, News, and Commercial lneili-
gence
destitute Of organ to promugate their opinions,
and advocate their principles connection with the De-
mocalic Press Of the Interior has been subject Of re-
teraed complaint and regret. Circumstances Of ia
yorable consprng measures have been adopted
to commence the publication Of the Iimts and Com
mereial IRtsligencer upon footing calculated 10 en-
sure It's independence aud pernanency
The political character Of the Times and Commereidi
fegeneer will be strictly Democratic Republican II
viii adhere to the principles Of the party which brought
into existence and sustained the late administration IL
will labor define the ancient land marks, and TO main
tain in their prime ygor the ancient usages OF the party
which, whilst they observed, rendered it invncl-
ble and secured simple and constitutional adminstIa-
ton OF public affairs, at the same time that they pro-
NOTED in the highest degree the undivided welfare aud
happiness Of the people
Ia marking out this line which both duty and incli
nation will prompt topursue, desire to be under
stood conceying that certain and points oil
policy entertained by portion OF the friends oil the
present general administration, form part oil the Re
publican creed Of binding influence but as mere ques-
tons Of expediency rest upon debaeable ground and
may be opposed according to the dictates OF conscience
and Judgment This paper will therefore be found IN
opposition to the unired eIpedients OF the day. The
country needs reposo from the agltaons or demagogues
and empires il is time that period OF depression
examped in its duration, and in its disastrous conse
quences should give way 10 the return Of confidence
and the resumption Of the ordinary pursuits OF trade and
industry II the measures OF the government shall be
found at variance with the suggestions OF sound policy,
brought into collision with public sentiment every
consideration for the public good cries aloud for their
abandonment To convince our rulers that they mis-
take, in sense the indications OF the public WILL
and to embody the scattered rays Of that will IN
k.I 80
the legitimate province Of Journal and to compose
prominent objects in the prosecution OF our design, OF
great importance and interest to every class OF the COM
muny.
We cannot resist the conviction that the Republican
party Of this State has been placed towards its oppo
in false positions position which exposes to
eminent hazards, which is daily and hourly weakening
its energies, and which, its threatened prostraton,
surrounds country with the worst dangers ever APP
pretended from the ascendency Of federal misrule.
When we contemplate the havoc which has been made
with the Republican legions in the short space Of eight
OF months, and weigh the certain indications oil Re
evolutionary in public sentiment, In states
where elections pending we cannot regard II as
either SAFE JUST honorable to devlate further from
the "republican track" marked by the footsteps OF
those distinguished Presidents who have in times past
secured the trumphs Of Democracy we feel impelled to
reject the Councils which bring nothing but defeat
and humiliation. The Times and Commercidt lnfeii-
penccr will therefore endeavcr to expunge the hereses
rectfy the errors into which they had betrayed our
friends To the genuine cause of Democracy we are
sincerely welded and there is power, whilst IT re-
mains pure, that divorce affections or ieryor
from it. But from the spurious faith OF the Loco Focos
and desructives sought TO be engraed upon our prn-
cples and to be substituted in our embraces we turn
with adherence and disgust The Times and Com
mercal Infcgeneer will labor to restore the Qemocra-
CIV again to its former vantage ground-to reorgan7e
its broken and dsprted legionsto rebuild ITS crumb-
ling temples and re-estabish its ancient ordinances
and TO behold again Aourshng and predominant, re-
fleeing 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
efforts to this consummation. II our labors shall
prove fruitless admonitions shall not be wanting
We will make attempt to put the good ship
before the wind and to her gallant and pre-
cious 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 hedpcn
and earth shall ,cifncss that icc are innocent"

cognze the organization of the Republican Party in this
Oily .na ,s~.ti~s f tho City Hall

lutons and address adopted on that occasion, VIII be
