PROPOSALS,

D For publishings Daily Morning Journal ~ New
York city, under the title or the NEW fOkh IiMEo
devoted to Politics, News, and Commercial ln.elh-
gence.
The well known fact that the Republicans Of this city
are destitute Of an organ to promugate their opinions
and advocate their principles in connection with the De-
mocralc Press Of the nteror has been subject OF re-
iterstcd complaint and regret Circumstances Of 10,
vorabe nature consprng measures have been adopted
10 Commence the publication Of the Times and COM
m,reiai Inteigeneer upon footing calculated 70 en-
sure lis Independence and permanency.
The political character OF the Times ana Commereiai
J.,,ii,orueey will be strictly Democratic Republican IL
vii a5bere TO the principles OF the party which brought
into existence and sustained the late administration ~
win labor 10 define the ancient land marks, and TO nam
tain in their prime vigor the ancient ussges " WIG PY
which, whilst they were observed, rendered lsincr
ble and secured simple and constitutions aauih'sa
ton OF public affairs, at the same time tna' ,ncy pro-
NOTED in the highest degree the undivided welfare ana
happiness OF the people.
II marking out this line, which both duty and inc-
nation will prompt US TO pursue, we desire 10 DC uiue
stood as Giving that certain measures and points OF
policy entertained BY portion OF the inehas % .ne
present general administration, form no part OF the he
publican creed of binding influence, but as mere ques
mons of expedency rest upon debateable ground and
may be opposed according to the dictates OF conscience
and Judgment This paper will therefore be ionna IN
opposition to the "untied erpedenis OF the day Inc
and empires II is time that period Of depression I'M
exampled in its duration, and in its disastrous conse-
auences should give way to the return oil commence
and the resumption Of the ordinary pursuits OF trade and
industry II the measures of the government shall DO
found at variance with the suggestions OF sound policy
or are brought into collision public sentiment every
consideration for the public good cries aloud for their
abandonment To convince our rulers, that they mis-
take sense, the indications oil the PUBIC will

n L. .a. to nfna
the legitimate province of Journal, and to compose
prominent objects in the prosecution OF our design OF
great importance and interest to every class oil 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 poson--a position which exposes It to
eminent hazards. which is daily and hourly weakening
its energies and which, its threatened prostaton,
surrounds country with the worst dangers ever aP
pretended from the ascendency OF federal misruie.
When contemplate the havoc which has been MADE
with the Republican egons in the short space OF eight
or ten months and weigh the certain indications oil he
evolutionary movements in public sentiment, In states
where elections pending, we cannot regard It as
either safc just honorable to deyiate further rom
the arepubican 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 nothing but defeat
and humiliation The Times and Commercial Infels-
geneer will therefore endeavcr to expunge the hereses
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 1t re-
mains pure that divorce our affections or ervor
from it, But from the spurious faith OF the Loeo-fOeos
and destructves sought be engraed upon our prn-
cples and t. be substituted in embraces we turn
with adherence and disgust. The Times and Com
ercial Inelgencer will labor to restore the Democra-
cy again to its former vantage ground-to re-organlze
its broken and dspirited legons-,o rebuild its crumb-
ling temples, and re-estabsh its ancient ordinances
and to behold it again fourishng and predominant,
fectng the moral influence of this great republic abroad,
and protecting the interests Of its numerous people at
home. We shall rejoice to be permitted to contribute
efforts to this consummatlon II our abors shall
prove fruitless admontions 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 dsappont the hopes of the many and the voice OF
destiny shall proclaim that ROME FALL, heapen
and earth shall ,oitncss that zoe are innoeent''
