The Madisonian. [volume] (Washington City [i.e. Washington, D.C.]) 1837-1845, 1838-12-13
PROPOSALS,

NJ For publishing Daily Morning Journal in New
York city, Under the title Of The NETWORK TIMES
AND COMMERCIAL INTELLIGENCER, to be
devoted TO Politics, News, and Commercial lntelli-
gence.
The well known fact that the Republicans Of this city
are destitute Of organ to promugae their opinions,
and advocate their principles in connection with the De-
mocralc Press Of the Interior has been subject OF re-
iterated complaint and regret Circumstances Of ia.
vorabe nature conspirng have been adopted
TO commence the publication Of the TINES and Com
nereal Inteligenee upon footing calculated 10 en-
sure its independence and pernanency.
The political character of the Times and Commercial
Ifelhgencer will be strictly Democratic Republican IL
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 to main
tain in their prime vigor the ancient usages OF the party
which. whilst they were observed rendered u mvihc
BILE, and secured simple and constitutional admnsia-
ton OF public affairs, 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 ncli-
nation will prompt to pursue, we desire to be under
stood conceving that certain measures and points OF
policy entertained by portion OF the friends OF the
present general administration, form no part oil the Re-
publican creed Of binding influence, but mere ques-
lions of expedency upon debateable ground and
may be opposed according to the dictates Of conscience
and Judgment. This paper will therefore be found IN
opposition to the unied erpedsnts" of the day The
country needs repose from the sgtaons or 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 ana
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 oil the public WILL
and embody the scattered rays Of that will IN SEN
sble 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 poson-a position which exposes It to
eminent hazards. which is daily and hourly weakening
its energies, and which, 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 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, we cannot regard It as
either SAFE just or honorable deviate further from
the republican track marked by the footsteps OF
those distinguished Presidents who have IN times past
secured the truphs of Democracy, feel impelled to
reject the Councils which bring us nothing but defeat
and humiliation. The Times and Commercial infeft-
genecr will therefore endeavcr to expunge the heresies
which have been interpoated into our creed and to
recty the errors into which they had betrayed our
friends. To the genuine cause OF Democracy we are
sincerely welded, and there is no power whilst re-
mains pure that can divorce affections or fervor
from it, But from the spurious faith Of the Loco
and destructves sought to be engaed upon our prn-
cipes and to be substituted in embraces turn
with adherence and disgust. The Times and Com
crcial Integcncer will labor to restore the Democra-
CIV again to its former vantage ground-to re-organHe
its broken and dsprted egions-,o rebuild its crumb-
ling temples, and re-establsh its ancient ordinances
and to behold it again fourishing and predominant,
fleeing the moral influence of this great republic abroad
and protecting the interests OF its numerous people at
home We shall rejoice be permitted to contribute
our efforts to this consummation II our abors shall
prove frutless our admontons shall not be wanting.
We will make more attempt to put the good ship
before the wind and to her gallant crew and pre-
cous freight II afterwards the madness OF the few
shall dsappont the hopes of the many and the voice OF
destiny shall proclaim that ROME MUST FALL, hedren
and earth shall ,pitncss that zoe are innocent"

cognze the organization of the Republican Party this
City it effected at the meeting OF the City Hall
the evening Of the I'd of January, 1888 The reso-
utions and address adopted that OCCASION will be

affairs.
