PROPOSALS.

M For publishing Daily Morning Journal 70 New
York city, under the title Of the NEW YORK liMEo
AND COMMERCIAL INTELLIGENCEk, TO be
devoted TO Politics, News, and Commercial intelii-
gence.
The well known fact that the Republicans Of this city
are destitute Of organ promugate their opinions,
and advocate their principles in connection with the De-
mocratc Press Of the Interior has been subject OF re-
iterated complaint and regret. Circumstances OF "a.
vorable nature consprng measures have been ADOPTED
to commence the publication Of the Iinas and Com
merciai Iateigeneer upon footing calculated to en-
sure It's Independence and permanency
The political character OF the Times and Commercial
btelLgeneer will be strictly Democratic Republican IL
will adhere to the principles Of the party which brought
into existence, and sustained the late administration IL
will labor to define the ancient land marks, and 10 main
tain in their prime ygor the ancient usages OF the party
which, whilst they were observed, rendered insine-
ble and secured simple and constitutional admnistfa
ton OF public affairs, at the same time that they pro-
NOTED in the highest degree the undivided welfare ana
happiness Of the people.
In marking this line, which both duty and inch
nation will prompt pursue, desire to be under
stood concerning that certain measures and points OF
policy entertained by portion OF the friends OF me
present general administration, form no part oil the re-
publican creed Of binding influence, but as mere ques
tons Of expedency rest upon debateable ground ana
may be opposed according the dictates OF conscience
and Judgment This paper will therefore be found 10
opposition the untied eIpedients" Of the day Inc
country needs repose from the agtaons or demagogues
and empires. Ii is time that period OF depression UNI
examped 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 ana
industry If the measures Of the government shall be
found variance with the suggestions OF sound policy
brought into collision with public sentiment even
consideration for the public good cries aloud for their
abandonment To convince our rulers that they mis-
take sense the indications OF the public VIII,
and TO embody the scattered rays Of that will IN SEN
sblc and tangible FORM will be deemed to come within
the legitimate province OF our Journal, and 70 compose
prominent objects IN the prosecution o. 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 its oppo-
nents in false poson-a position which exposes y 70
eminent hazsrds, which is daily and hourly weakening
its energies and which, in its threatened prostration
surrounds our country with the worst dangers ever APP
pretended from the ascendency OF federal misruie
When we contemplate the havoc which has been made
with the Republican egons in the short space Of eght
months and weigh the certain indications Of he
evolutionary movements in public sentiment, m states
where elections are pending, cannot regard II as
either SAFE Just or honorable to deviate 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 mpeed to
reject the Councils which bring nothing but defeat
and humiliation The Times and Commercial Infelii-
peneer will therefore endeavcr to expunge the hereses
which have been nterpolated into our creed, and to
rectify the errors into which they had betrayed our
friends To the genuine Of Democracy we are
sincerely welded and there is power, whilst it re-
mains pure that can divorce affections or fervor
from it, But from the spurious faith OF the Loco Focos
and destrucves sought to be engraed upon our prin
cipes and to be substituted in our embraces we turn
with adherence and disgust The Tunes and Com
ercial Inelhgcncer will labor to restore the Democra-
cy again to its former vantage ground-to re-organue
its broken and dspirited legonso rebuild It's crumb-
ling temples and re-estabsh its ancient ordinances
and to behold it again fourishing and predominant re-
ecng 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 consummation II our abors shall
prove frutless our admontons shall not be wanting.
We will make one more attempt to put the good ship
before the wind and to her gallant crew and pre-
cious freight If afterwards the madness OF the few
shall dsappont the hopes Of the many and the voice Of
destiny shall proclaim that ROME MUST FALL, hcacen
and earth shall ,riiness that are innocent"
The Times and Commercial Inteligencer, will re-
cognize the organization Of the Republican Party in this
City as it was effected at the meeting OF the City Hall
on the evening OF the "a OF January 1855 Inc Teso
utions and address adopted that OCCASION will be

adapted to the present crisis in public and political
affairs.
