PROPOSALS,

PROPOSALS,
NJ For publishing Daily Morning Journal In New
York city, under the title Of ihe NEW YORK TIMES
AND COMMERCIAL INTEI.LIGENCER, TO be
devoted 70 Politics, News, and Commercial Intel-
genee.
The well known fact that the Republicans OF this CITY
destitute Of organ TO pTonu gate their opinions
and advocate their principles IN connection with The De-
mocTstc Press OF the INTERIOR has been subject OF re-
Iicraed complaint and regret. Circumstances OF ia
yorable nature consprng measures have been adopted
10 commence the publication Of the TUNES and Com
merciai IHfeLhgsHcer upon footing calculated to en-
sure its independence and permanency
The political character Of the Tunes and Commercial
Iteigencer will be strictly Democratic Republican, 1t
will adhere to the principles Of the party which brought
into existence, and sustained the late administration IL
will labor define the ancient land marks, and 10 MAIN
tain IN their prime ygor the ancient usages oil the party
which, whilst they were observed rendered inyinci-
BILE, and secured simple and constitutional admnlsa-
ton Of public affairs, at the time that they pro-
mcted in the highest degree the undivided welfare and
happiness Of the people.
In marking out this line, which both duty and incll-
nation will prompt US topursue we desire 10 be under
stood concerning that certain measures and points oil
policy entertained by portion Of the friends OF the
present general administration form no part OF the Re
publican creed Of binding influence, hut mere ques-
tlons Of expedency upon debatesbe ground, aud
may be opposed according the dictates OF conscience
aud Judgment. This paper viii therefore be found IN
opposition TO the "nnied e1pedisnts Of the day The
country needs repose from the aglatons demagoges
aud empires II Is time that period OF depression UNI
exspled IN ITS duraon and 10 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 lth the suggestions Of sound policy
are 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 some sense, the indications OF the public WILL
and 10 embody the scattered rays Of that will in
sibe and tangible form, will be deemed to within
the legitimate province OF Journal and TO compose
prominent objects in the prosecution of our design Of
great importance and interest 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 II to
eminent hazards, which is daily and hourly weakening
It's energies, and which, in its threatened prostration
surrounds our country with the worst dangers ever APP
pretended from the ascendency OF federal mlsrnle
When contemplate the havoc which has been made
with the Republican legions the short space OF eight
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 deyiae further from
the republican track" marked by the footsteps of
those distinguished Presidents who have in times past
secured the rumphs Of Democracy, we feel impeed to
reject the Councils which bring us nothing but defeat
and humiliation. The Times and Commercial Intehh-
genesr will therefore endeavcr 10 expunge the hereses
which have been interpoated into our creed, and to
rectify the into which they had betrayed our
friends. To the genuine cause of Democracy we are
sincerely welded and there is no power, whilst i re-
mains pure, that divorce our affections or fervor
from it, But from the spurious faith Of the Loco Foeos
and des,mctves sought TO he engrafed upon our prin
cipes and to be substituted in embraces turn
with adherence and disgust. The Times and Com
erciai Intct,gcnccr will labor the Democra
cy again to its former vantage groundto re-organ2e
its broken and dsprted egions--to rebuild its crumb
ling temples and fe-establish its ancient ordinances
and to behold it again fourlshing and predominant
fecng the oralnfuence 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 consummation. II our labors shall
prove frutlcss adnontons 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 II afterwards the madpess Of the few
shall dsappon the hopes of the many, and the voice Of
destiny shall proclaim that q RoSE FALL heapen
and earth shall ,ritness that tee are innocent"

City as effected at the meeting of the City Hall
on the evening Of the I'd Of January 1888 The reso-
utions and address adopted that occasion, will be
