The Madisonian. [volume] (Washington City [i.e. Washington, D.C.]) 1837-1845, 1838-03-27
PROPOSALS.

~ 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 Inelll-
gence. Isl"
The well known fact that the Republicans of this city
destitute Of an organ to promugate their opinions,
and advocate their pnc pies in connection with the De
moc,ic Press Of the interior, has been subject Of
ierated complaint and regret. Circumstances Of ia
yorable nature consprng measures have been adopted
to commence the publication of the Times aud Com,
merciai iattiigehecr upon footing calculated TO
its Independence and permanently ....
The political character Of the Times and Commercial
Iic3geacer will be strictly Democratic Republican, 1t
will adhere to the principles OF the party which brought
into existence, and sustained the late administration IL
will labor TO define the ancient land marks and main
tain in their prime ygor the ancient usages OF the party
which, whilst they were observed, rendered 1t lnvncl-
bic, and secured simple and constitutional admlnstra
ton Of public affairs, at the same time that they pro-
NOTED in the highest degree the undivided welfare and
happiness Of the people
In marking out this line, which both duty and incli
nation will prompt topursue, desire to be under
stood conceylng that certain and points OF
policy entertained by portion OF the friends OF the
present general administration, form part Of the Re-
publican creed Of binding influence but mere ques-
tons of eSpediency rest upon debateabe ground, and
may be opposed according the dictates of conscience
and Judgment THIS paper will therefore be found IN
opposition TO the ''unfred erpeditnis" OF the day. The
country needs repose from the agtations demagogues
and empires 1t is time that period of depression
exampcd in its DURATION and in its disastrous
quences should give way to the return of confidence
and the resumption Of the ordinary pursuits of trade aud
industry II the measures of the government shall be
found vaauce with the suggestions of sound policy,
brought into collision with public sentiment every
consideration for the public good cnes aloud for their
abandonment, To convince rulers, that they mis-
take in sense, the indications OF the public will,
and embody the scattered rays of that will na
bio and hnI
the legitimate province Of Journal and to compose
prominent objects IN the prosecution of design, OF
great Importance and interest to every class of the
munlty. ..".
We cannot resist the conviction that the Republican
party of this State has been placed towards lis oppo
nents in false positiona position which exposes to
eminent hazards, which is daily and hourly weakening
It's energies, and which in its threatened prostraton
surrounds country with the worst dangers ap
pretended from the ascendency Of federal misrule
When contemplate the havoc which has been made
with the Republican legions in the short space Of eight
or ten months, and weigh the certain indications of Re-
evolutionary movements IN public sentiment, IN states
where elections are pending, we cannot regard 1t
either safe, Just, honorable to devlate further from
the "rcpubllcan track marked by the footsteps OF
those distinguished Presidents who have in times past
secured the trumphs Of Democracy, we feel mpelled
reject the Councils which bring US nothing bat defeat
and humiliation. The Times and Commercial fateii-
gcRccr will therefore endeavcr to expunge the hereslcs
rectify the into which they had betrayed our
friends. To the genuine Of Democracy we are
sincerely welded and there Is no power whilst It re-
mains pure, that divorce affections or iervor
from it, But from the spurious faith Of the Loco Focos
and dcslructiyes sought to be eugafed upon prin
cples and to be substituted in embraces we turn
with adherence and disgust. The Times anil Com
mercal Ialcigcnccr will labor to restore the Dcmocra
cy again to lis former vantage groundto rc-organl7c
its broken and Disputed egIons-to rebuild It's crumb-
ling temples, and rcestabtsh It's ancient ordinances
and behold it again hourshIng and predominant, re-
fleeing the moraIaucnce of this great republic abroad
ard protecting the interests of It's numerous people at
home We shall rejoice 10 he permitted 10 contribute
our efforts to this conSummaton If our labors shall
prove frucss our adnonons shall not be wanting
We will make one more attempt to put the good ship
before the wind and her gallant and pre-
cous freight II afterwards the madness OF the tcw
shall dsappont the hopes of the many, and the yocc'o
destiny shall proclaim that ROVE MUST Fall, heaten
and earth shall ,ritaess that arc dctnHoccn'
