PROPOSALS,
HJ For publishing Daily Morning Journal in New
York CITY, under the title OF the NEW YORK TIMES
AND COMMERCIAL INTELLIGENCER, to be
devoted 70 Politics, News, and Commercial lniell-
geDce.
The well known fact that the Republicans OF this city
are destitute Of an organ promugate their opinions
and advocate their principles connection with the De-
mocratic Press Of the Interior has been subject OF re-
eraied complaint and regret. Circumstances Of Ia
yorable consprng measures have been adopted
TO commence the publication Of the Times and Com
mereiai lnfeAigsneer upon footing calculated to en-
sure its Independence and permanency.
The political character OF the Times and Commercial
Inteligeneer will be strictly Democratic Republican IL
will adhere TO the principles Of the party which brought
into existence and sustained the late administration II
will labor TO define the ancient land marks, and TO main
tain in their prime vgor the ancient usages OF the party
which. whilst they observed rendered u lnyinci-
BILE, and secured simple and constitutional admnlsra-
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 inci-
nation will prompt us pursue, we desire to be under
stood conceiyng that certain measures and points OF
policy entertained by portion OF the friends OF The
present general administration, form part oil the Re
publican creed of binding influence, but mere ques-
tons Of expediency rest upon debateabe ground, and
may be opposed according the dictates Of conscience
and judgment. This paper will therefore be found IN
opposition the "uniried erpedients" Of the day. The
country needs repose from the agations demagogues
and empires II is time that period OF depression I'M
exampled in its duration, and in its disastrous conse-
quences should give way to 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 SEN
sibe and tangible FORM will be deemed to come within
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
munity #.
We cannot resist the conviction that the Republican
party Of this State has been placed towards It's oPpo-
nents in false poston-a position which exposes It to
eminent hazards which is daily and hourly weakening
its energies and which, in its threatened prostration,
surrounds country with the worst dangers ever APP
pretended from the ascendency OF federal misrule
When contemplate the havoc which has been made
with the Republican egons in the short space OF eight
months, and weigh the certain indications OF Re
evolutionary movements in public sentiment, IN states
where elections are pending, cannot regard 1t as
either SAFE just honorable to deviate 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 mpelled to
reject the Councils which bring nothing but defeat
and humiliation. The Times and Commercial Inteltt-
gcncer will therefore endeaycr to expunge the hereses
which have been interpolated into our creed, and to
rectify the errors into which they had betrayed our
friends To the genuine OF Democracy we are
sincerely welded and there is no power, whilst re-
mains pure that can divorce affections or iervor
from it, But from the spurious faith OF the Loeo-Focos
and desructyes sought to be engrafed upon our prn
cples, and to be substituted in our embraces we turn
with adherence and disgust The Times and Com
mereial Iategcnccr will labor to restore the Democra-
cy again to its former vantage ground-to re-organve
it's broken and dispirited legonso rebuild its crumb
ling temples, and reesabsh its ancient ordinances
and to behold it again Hourishng and predominant re-
fecting the moral influence Of this great republic abroad
and protecting the interests Of its people at
home We shall rejoice to be permitted to contribute
our efforts to this consummation If our abors shall
prove fruitless our admontons shall not be wanting.
We will make one more attempt to put the good snip
before the wind and her gallant crew and pre-
cious freight If afterwards the madness OF the few
shall dsappont the hopes Of the many and the voice OF
destiny shall proclaim that I" ROME MUST FALL, heauen
and earth shall ,eitness that zoe are innocent"
The Times and Commercial Intelhgeneer, will re-

City as it was effected the meeting Of the City Hall

lutions and address adopted that occasion, will be
