NJ For publishing Daily Morning Journal in New
York city, under the title OF the NEW YORK TIMES
AND COMMERCIAL INTELLIGENCER, to be
devoted 10 Politics, News, and Commercial intelli-
gence
The well known fact that the Republicans Of this city
destitute Of organ 70 promugae their opinions,
and advocate their principles in connection with the De-
nocratc Press Of the Interior has been subject OF re-
tersed complaint and regret. Circumstances Of ia
yorable nature consprng have been adopted
TO commence the publication Of the Times and Com
msreiai Ineiigencer upon footing calculated to en-
sure lis Independence and Permsnency.
The political character OF the Times and Commercial
Iatciigencer will be strictly Democratic Republican IL
will adhere TO the principles Of the party which brought
into existence and sustained the late administration IL
viii labor define the ancient land marks and TO main
tain in their prime vgor the ancient usages OF the party
which, whilst they observed, rendered it nvinci
ble 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 ncli-
nation will prompt to pursue 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 part Of the Re-
publican creed OF binding influence but mere ques-
tons OF expediency rest upon debsteabe ground, and
may be opposed according TO the dictates Of conscience
and Judgment This paper will therefore be found IN
opposition to the uatisd erped,snts Of the day The
country needs repose from the agitaons or demagogues
and empires. II is time that period Of depression un
examped in its DURATION and in its disastrous conse
quences should give way to the return OF confidence
and tho 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
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, in sense the indications OF the public will,
and to embody the scattered rays Of that will in sen
sible and tangible form, will be deemed to 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
munty.
We cannot resist the conviction that the Republican
party of this State has been placed towards its oppo
nens in false positiona position which exposes It to
eminent hazards, which is daily and hourly weakening
its energies, and which, in its threatened prosration
surrounds country with the worst dangers APP
pretended from the ascendency Of federal misrule
When contemplate the havoc which has been made
with the Republican legons in the short space OF eight
ten months and weigh the certain indications OF Re-
evolutionary movements in public sentiment, IN states
where elections pending, we cannot regard 1t as
either safe just honorable to deviae further from
the "rcpublican track marked by the footsteps OF
those distinguished Presidents who have in times past
secured the tumphs Of Democracy, we feel impeed to
reject the Councils which bring Us nothing but defeat
and humiliation. The Times and Commercial Intelh-
genccr will therefore cndeavcr to expunge the heresies
which have been interpolated into our creed, and to
rectfy 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 can divorce our affections or ervor
from it. But from the spurious faith OF the Loco Focos
and destructves sought to be engaed upon our prin-
ciples and to be substituted in embraces we turn
with adherence and disgust. The Times and Com
mercal Infeigcncer will labor to restore the Democra-
cy again to its former vantage ground-to re-organre
ohntl ifs r,mh
ling temples and re-establlsh its ancient ordinances
and behold it again fourshng and predominant re-
hectng 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
our efforts to this consummaton II our labors shall
prove fruess our admonitions shall not be wanting.
We will make more 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 disappon the hopes Of the many, and the voice Of
destiny shall proclaim that ROME MUST FALL heauen
and earth shall ,ciiness that innocent"

cognze the organization OF the Republican Party in this
City effected at the meeting OF the City Hall
on the evening Of the I'd Of January 1888. The reso
luons and address adopted that occasion, will be
