PROPOSALS,

PROPOSALS.,
HI For publishing Daily Morning Journal in New
York city, under the title Of the NEW YORK TIMES
AND COMMERCIAL INTELI.IGENCER, to be
devoted to Politics, News, and Commercial Intelli-
gence.
The well known fact that the Republicans Of this city
are destitute Of organ TO promugae their opinions,
and advocate their principles IN connection with the De-
mocrac Press Of the INTERIOR has been subject OF re-
iterated complaint and regret Circumstances OF ia
vorabe nature conspirng measures have been ADOPTED
to commence the publcstion of the Iimtsan Com
mereia inteiigsneer upon footing calculated to en-
its independence and permanency.
The political character OF the Tunes and Commercial
Iacigencer will be strictly Democratic Republican, II
will adhere TO the principles OF the party which brought
into existence and sustained the late administration 1t
win labor define the ancient land marks and TO MAIN
tain their prime vgor the ancient usages oil the party
which. whilst they observed, rendered It nyinci-
BILE, and secured simple and constitutional administra-
ton Of public affairs, at the time that they pro-
NOTED in the highest degree the undivided welfare aud
happiness Of the people
In marking this line, which both duty and incli-
nation will prompt Us topursue we desire 10 be under
stood conceving that certain measures and points OF
policy entertained by portion OF the friends oil the
present general administration form no part OF the lee
publican creed OF binding influence but mere ques-
tons Of expedency 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 uted ezped,snfs" OF the day The
country needs repose from the agtatons demagogues
and empires II is time that period OF depression I'M
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 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 ms
take, in sense the indications OF the public WILL
and to embody the scattered rays Of that will in sen
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 It's oPpo-
nents in false positiona position which exposes It to
eminent hazards, which is daily and hourly weakening
its energies, and which, in its threatened prostration,
surrounds country with the worst dangers ever ap-
pretended from the ascendency OF federal mlsrnie
When we contemplate the havoc which has been made
with the Republican legions in the short space OF eight
or ten months and weigh the certain indications OF Re
voutonary movements in public sentiment, IN states
where elections pending, we cannot regard II as
either safe, just honorable to devlate further from
the republican track" marked by the footsteps OF
those distinguished Presidents who have in times past
secured the riumphs Of Democracy feel impeed TO
reject the Councils which bring US nothing but defeat
and humiliation The Times and Commercial fntelli-
geneer will therefore endeaycr to expunge the heresles
which have been interpolaed into our creed, and to
rectiy 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 affections or iervor
from it, But from the spurious faith oil the Locofocos
and desructives sought to be engrafed upon our pr
ciples and to be substituted IN our embraces we turn
with adherence and disgust The Tunes and Com
mereial Inteigcncer will labor to restore the Democra
cy again to its former vantage ground-to re-oganHe
its broken and disprted leglons-to rebuild Its crumb
ling temples and re-estabish its ancient ordinances
and to behold it again fourshng and predominant re-
hecng the moral influence of this great republic abroad
aud protecting the interests of its numerous people at
home. We shall rejoice to be permitted to contribute
our efforts to this consummation II our labors shall
prove frutess our admonitions shall not be wanting
We will make one more attempt to put the good ship
before the wind and to save her gallant crew and pre-
cous freight If afterwards the madness oil the few
shall disappon the hopes Of the many and the voice Of
destiny shall proclaim that ROME FALL, heauen
and earth shall ,oitncss that are are innocent"
The Times and Commercial Inteihgenecr, will re-
cognze the organization Of the Republican Party in this
City it effected at the meeting oil the City Hall
on the evening Of the I'd of January, 1888 The reso
luons and address adopted that occasion, will be
referred to as to Republican principles and
adapted to the present crisis in our public and political
affairs.
