The Madisonian. [volume] (Washington City [i.e. Washington, D.C.]) 1837-1845, 1838-06-26
PROPOSALS,

HI For publishing Daily Morning Journal IN New
York city, under the title Of the NEW YORK TIMES
devoted to Politics, News, and Commercial Inteli-
gence.
The well known fact that the Republicans Of this city
destitute Of an organ to promugae their opinions,
and advocate their principles in connection with the De-
mocratic Press Of the interior has been subject OF
terated complaint and regret Circumstances OF ia
vorabe conspirng measures have been adopted
to commence the publication Of the Times and Com
msreai iatelhgenrer upon footing calculated to en-
sure its independence and permanently.
The political character Of the Times and Commercial
Iaislgsncer will be strictly Democratic Republican. 1t
will adhere to the principles Of the party which brought
into existence and sustained the late administration II
will labor define the ancient land marks, and to main
tain in their prime vgor the ancient usages Of the party
which. whilst thoy Observed rendered it invinci
bic, and secured simple and constitutional admnisIa
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 inc
nation viii prompt topursue, we desire to be under
stood concerning that certain measures 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 inference. but as mere sues
may BE- opposed according to the dictates OF conscience
and Judgment This paper will therefore be found IN
opposition to the .uatred ezpedteas Of the day The
country needs repose from the agtatons demagogues
and empires II is time that period Of depression
exampled 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
or brought into collision whpublc sentiment every
consideration for the public good cries aloud for their
abandonment To convince rulers, that they mis-
take, in some sense the indications Of the public will,
and to embody the scattered rays of that will 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 design OF
great importance and interest to every class OF the COM
mnnity.
We cannot resist the conviction that the Republican
party Of this State has been placed towards its oppo
nents in false positona position which exposes il to
eminent hazards, which is daily and hourly weakening
its energies and which, in its threatened prostration,
surrounds our country with the dangers APP
pretended from the ascendency OF federal msrule.
When we 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 in public sentiment, in states
where elections pending, cannot regard il 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 triumphs Of Democracy we feel mpelled to
reject the Councils which bring nothing but defeat
and humiliation. The Times and Commercial Intelh-
geneer will therefore endeavcr expunge the heresies
which have been nterpolated 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 It re-
mains pure that divorce our affections or fervor
from it. But from the spurious faith Of the Loco Focos
and desructves sought to be engraed upon our prn-
cples, and to be substituted in embraces we turn
with adherence and disgust. The Times and Com
mereial Iieigencer will labor to restore the Democra
cy again to its former vantage groundto re-organi7e

ling temples, and reesabsh its ancient ordinances
and to behold again Aourishing and predominant re-
srd M interests q s i 5sRSSS abroad
home We Shall rejoice to be permitted to contribute
our efforts this contamination II our abors shall
prove fruitless our admontons shall not be wanting.
We will make one more attempt to put the good ship
before the wind and to her gallant and pre-
cious freight If afterwards the madness of the few
shall dsappon the hopes Of the many and the voice Of
destiny shall proclaim that ROVE FALL, heapen
and earth shall ,ritness that zoe are innocent"
The Times and Commercial Iateltgeneer, will re-
cognze the organization Of the Republican Party in this
City as it was effected at the meeting Of the City Hall
the evening Of the I'd OF January, 1883 The reso-
Iutions and address adopted that OCCASION will be
referred to as consonant to Republican principles and
adapted the present crisis in public and political
affairs.
