The Madisonian. [volume] (Washington City [i.e. Washington, D.C.]) 1837-1845, 1838-12-11
PROPOSALS,

NJ For publishing Daily Morning Journal in New
York city. under the title Of the NEW Y DIRK TIMES
AND COMMERCIAL INTELLIGENCER, TO be
devoted to Politics, News, aud Commercial lntelii-
genee.
The well known fact that the Republicans Of this city
are destitute OF organ promugate their opinions,
and advocate their principles in connection with the De-
mocratc Press Of the INTERIOR has been subject Of re-
itcrated complaint and regret Circumstances oil la
yorabe nature conspirng have been adopted
TO commence the publication of the Times and Com
mereat Iatsiigsneer upon footing calculated 10 en-
sure It's independence and permanency.
The political character OF the Times and Commercial
Iafehgencer 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 10 main
tain in their prime vgor the ancient usages OF the party
which. whilst they Observed rendered u inyinci-
BILE, and secured simple and constitutional admnisua-
ton Of public affairs, the time that they pro-
NOTED in the highest degree the undivided welfare and
happiness Of the people.
Ia marking this line, which both duty and incli-
nation will prompt us topursue, we desire to be under
stood conceving that certain measures and points oil
policy entertained by portion OF the friends Of The
present general administration, form part OF the Re-
publican creed Of binding influence, but as mere ques-
tons 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 unfried erpedsnis Of the day The
and empires II is time that period Of depression I'M
exampled in its duration, and 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 OF the government shall be
found at 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, sense, the indications OF the public will,
and to embody the scattered rays Of that will in
s,le nd lie will he q
the legitimate province OF our Journal, and to compose
prominent objects 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 II TO
eminent hazards, which is daily and hourly weakening
its energies and which, in its threatened Prostraton,
surrounds country with the worst dangers ever ap-
pretended from the ascendency Of federal msrue.
When we contemplate the havoc which has been made
with the Republican egons in the short space Of eight
or ten months and weigh the certain indications oil he
evolutionary movements in public sentiment, IN states
where elections are pending, we cannot regard II as
either SAFE JUST honorable to deyiate further from
the "republican track marked by the footsteps OF
those distinguished Presidents who have IN times past
secured the umphs OF Democracy, we feel impeed TO
reject the Councils which bring US nothing but defeat
and humiliation. The Times and Commercial infelh-
pencer will therefore endeavcr to expunge the hereses
which have been interpoated into creed, and to
rectify 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 It re-
mains pure, that divorce affections or ervor
from it, But from the spurious faith OF the Loco
and destuctyes sought to be engrafedupon our prin-
cipes and to be substituted in our embraces we turn
with adherence and disgust. The Times and Com
crcial Integencer will labor to restore the Democra-
cy again its former vantage ground-to re-organ7e
its broken and dspred egions-to rebuild its crumb-
limit apdre bIIsh ordinances
and to behold it again fourishing and predominant re-
fleeing the moral influence OF this great republic abroad
and protecting the interests OF It's numerous people at
home. We shall rejoice to be permitted to contribute
our efforts to this consummaton II our abors shall
prove fruess admontons shall not be wanting
We will make one more attempt to put the good ship
before the wind and to her gallant crew and pre-
cous freight If afterwards the madness OF the few
shall dsappont the hopes Of the many and the voice OF
destiny shall proclaim that ROME MUST FALL, hearcn
and earth shall tciiness that innoccnt."
The Times and Commercial Inteligenecr, will
copnze the organization of the Republican Party this
Cit, it effected at the meeting of the City Hall
on the evening of the I'd Of January 1888 The reso-
referred to consonant Rcpubiican principles anu
adapted the present crisis in our public and political
affairs.
