The Madisonian. [volume] (Washington City [i.e. Washington, D.C.]) 1837-1845, 1838-06-30
PROPOSALS,

M For publishing Daily Morning Journal in New
FORK city, under the title OF The NEW YORK TIMES
AND COMMERCIAL INTELLIGENCER, to be
devoted to Politics, News, and Commercial Intell-
gence.
The well known fact that the Republicans OF this city
destitute Of organ to promugate their opinions
and advocate their principles in connection with the De-
mocraic Press Of the Interior has been subject OF
,erated complaint and regret. Circumstances Of fa-
vorabe nature consprng measures have been adopted
to commence the publication of the Times and Com
mercial Iaieiigsnesr upon footing calculated to
sure its Independence and permanently.
The political character Of the Times and Commercial
Iaieigencer will be strictly Democratic Republican Ii
win 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 main
tain their prime sgor the ancient usages Of the party
which, willis. they were observed rendered it inync-
be and secured simple and constitutional adminstra
ton Of public affairs at the 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 win prompt pursue, desire to be under
stood conceivng that certain measures and points OF
policy entertained by portion Of the friends Of the
present general administration form no part Of the Ke-
publican creed OF binding influence, but mere ques-
lions Of expectancy rest 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 nntrisd erpedens" of the day The
country needs repose from the agations demagogues
and empires. II is time that period Of depression
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
or are brought into collision withpublc sentiment, every
consideration for the public good cries aloud for their
abandonment To convince our rulers, that they mis-
take in some sense the indications Of the public WILL
hndr aral a0ffb that in
sble and tangible form, will be deemed to come within
the legitimate province Of our 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 its oppo
nents in false position-a position which exposes It to
eminent hazards which is daily and hourly weakening
its energies and which, in its threatened prostitution,
surrounds country with the worst dangers ever APP
pretended from the ascendency OF federal misrule.
When we contemplate the havoc which has been made
with the Republican egions 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 pending, we cannot regard It as
either SAFE Just, honorable to dcvate further from
the republican track" marked by the footsteps Of
those distinguished Presidents who have in times past
secured the triumphs Of Democracy we feel mpeled to
reject the Councils which bring nothing but defeat
and humiliation The Times and Commercial Iatelii-
gencer will therefore endeavcr to expunge the hercses
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 divorce our affections or fervor
from it, But from the spurious faith OF the Loeo-Focos
and destructives sought to be engaed upon prn-
cples and to be substituted in embraces turn
with adherence and disgust. The Times and Com
mercial IRtegcncer will labor to restore the Democra
cy again to its former vantage groundto re-organi7e
its broken and disprited egonsto rebuild its crumb-
ling temples, and reestabsh its ancient ordinances
and to behold it again ourishng and predominant,
assas ss NJ q s republic
home We shan rcoicc to be permitted to contrsbnie
our efforts TO this consummation II our labors shall
prove fruitless our admontons shall not be wanting.
We will make one attempt to put the good ship
before the wind and to her gallant crew and pre-
cious freight II afterwards the madness Of the few
shall dsappoint the hopes Of the many and the voice Of
destiny shall proclaim that ROME MUST FALL, hcaucn
and earth shall ,ciiness that zoe are innocent"
The Times and Commercial Intcligencer, 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 2d Of January 1888 The reso-
lutions and address adopted that occasion, will be
referred to as consonan to Republican principles and
adapted to the present crisis in our public and political
affairs.
