PROPOSALS,

NJ For publishing Daily Morning Journal IN New
York city, under the title Of The NEW YORK TIMES
AND COMMERCIAL INTELLlGENCER, to be
devoted 10 Politics. News, and Commercial Ineili-
gence.
The well known fact that the Republicans Of this city
destitute OF an organ TO promulgate their opinions,
and advocate their principles connection with the De-
mocrac Press Of the interior, has been subject oil re-
itcrated complaint and regret Circumstances OF ia,
vorabIe nature consprng measures have been adopted
to commence the publication of the Times and Com
merciai Infegsneer upon footing calculated 10 en-
its Independence and permanently
The political character OF the Times and Commercial
Iaeiigeneer will be strictly Democratic RePnbiiean ~

into existence, and sustained the late administration IL
will labor define the ancient land marks, and 10 mann

which, whilst they observed, rendered inync-
BILE, and secured simple aud constitutional adminsua-
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 inci-
nation will prompt to pursue, desire TO be under
stood conceving that certain and points OF
policy entertained by portion OF the friends OF me
present general administration form part oil the e-
publican creed Of binding influence, but as mere cues.

may be opposed according the dictates OF conscience
and judgment This paper will therefore be found IN
opposition TO the "antrcd erpcdicnts oil the day Inc

the legitimate province OF our Journal, and to compose
prominent objects in the prosecution oil 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 poston-a position which exposes it to
eminent hazards, which is daily and hourly weakening
its energies and which, in its threatened prostraon,
surrounds country with the worst dangers ever APP
pretended from the ascendency oil federal mlsrue.
When contemplate the havoc which has been made
with the Republican egions the short space OF eight
or ten months and weigh the certain indications OF he
evolutionary movements in public sentiment, In states
where elections pending, we cannot regard II as
either SAFE Just, honorable to dcsiae further from
the republican track marked by the footsteps oil
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 Infeih-
oeneer will therefore endeavcr to expunge the heresies
which have been inerpoated into our creed and 70
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 whist u re-
mains pure, that divorce our affections or fervor
from it, But from the spurious faith oil the
and destructves sought to be engraited upon our pn
cipes and to be substituted in our embraces we turn
with adherence and disgust. The Times and Com
ercial Intcgcncer will labor to restore the democrat
CIV again to its former vantage ground-to reorganIe
its broken and disputed legions-to rebuild ITS crumb-
ling temples and Ie-establish It's ancient ordinances
and to behold it again hourshng and predominant re-
fectng 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
efforts to this concentration. II our labors shall
prove fruess admonitions shall not be wanting.
We will make one attempt TO put the good ship
before the wind and to save her gallant and pre-
cous freight If afterwards the madness Of the few
shall dsappont the hopes OF the many and the voice OF
destiny shall proclaim that " ROVE MUST FALL, heapen
and Garth shall ,ctness that re are innocent"
The Times and Commercial Infeii,geneer, will re-
cognze the organization of the Republican Party in this
City as twas effected the meeting OF the City Hall
on the evening Of the I'd Of January, 1888 The reso-
Iutons and address adopted that occasion, will be
referred to as consonant to Republican principles and
adapted the present crisis in public and political
affairs
