PROPOSALS,

NJ For publishing Daily Morning Journal in New
York CITY, under the title Of the NEW YORK TIMES
AND COMMERCIAL INTEI.LIGENCER, TO be
devoted to Politics, News, and Commercial Intell-
gence.
The we'll known fact that the Republicans Of this city
are destitute Of organ to promugate their opinions
and advocate their principles in connection with the De-
mocratic Press Of the Interior has been subject of
erated complaint and regret Circumstances OF ia
vorable nature conspnng have been adopted
TO commence the publication Of the Times and Com
mereiai IeHigCncer upon footing calculated TO en-
sure its independence and permanency.
The political character Of the Times and Commercial
MteiiIgeHcer will be strictly Democratic Republican. Ii
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. Wills, they were observed rendered il inyinci
ble and secured simple and constitutional admnisra-
ton oil 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 lncli-
nation will prompt us topursue desire TO be under
stood as conceivng that certain and points Of
policy entertained by portion Of the friends OF the
present general administration form no part OF the Re-
publican creed OF binding influence, but ques-
tons OF expedlency 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 uRfrca erpedisnts Of the day. The
and empires. 1t is time that period Of depression
examped 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 and
industry II the measures Of the government shall be
found at variance with the suggestions OF sound policy,
are brought into collision with public sentiment every
consideration for the public good cries aloud for their
abandonment 10 convince our rulers, that they mis-
take, in some sense the indications of the public will,
and TO embody the scattered rays Of that will ina
and la haI
the legitimate province OF our Journal and to compose
prominent objects in the prosecution of design, of
great importance and interest to every class OF the COM
munity. a#. 4. r..
We cannot resist the conviction that the Republican
party Of this State has been placed towards its oppo
neDts in false positona position which exposes It to
emipent hazards, which is daily and hourly weakening
its energies, and which, in its threatened prostraton,
surrounds country with the worst dangers APP
pretended from the ascendency of federal misrue.
When we contemplate the havoc which has been made
with the Republican egons in the short space of eight
ten months, and weigh the certain indications OF Re-
evolutionary movements in public sentiment IN states
where elections are pending, we cannot regard 1t as
either safe, just, honorable to deviae further from
the republican track" marked by the footsteps of
those distinguished Presidents who have in times past
secured the trumphs Of Democracy, feel impeed to
reject the Councils which bring nothing but defeat
and humiliation. The Times and Commercial Intelti-
gcneer will therefore endeavcr to expunge the heresies
which have been nterpoated into our creed, and to
rectfy the into which they had betrayed our
friends. To the genuine cause OF Democracy we are
sincerely welded, and there is power, whilst 1t re-
mains pure. that divorce affections or feryor
from it, But from the spurious faith OF the Loco Focos
and desructves sought to be engrafed upon our prn-
cples, and to be substituted in embraces we turn
with adherence and disgust. The Times and Com
mereal Iaic,gencer will labor to restore the Democra-
cy again to its former vantage ground--to re-organHe
its broken and displrited legonso rebuild its crumb-
ling temples, and reestabsh its ancient ordinances
and behold it again fourishing and predominant,
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
efforts to this contamination If our abors shall
prove fruitless admonitions shall not be wanting
We will make one more attempt to put the good snip
before the wind and to her gallant crew and pre-
cious freight II afterwards the madness OF the few
shall disappon the hopes of the many and the voice Of
destiny shall proclaim that ROME MUST FALL, hcaucn
and earth shall tcnncss that nc are innocent"
The Times and Commercial Inteltgcneer will re-
cognze the organization of the Republican Party in this
City as it was effected at the meeting of the City Hall
on the evening Of the I'd OF January, 1888. The
lu,ions and address adopted that OCCASION will be
referred consonant TO Republican, principles and
adapted to the present crisis in our public and political
affairs
