The Madisonian. [volume] (Washington City [i.e. Washington, D.C.]) 1837-1845, 1839-01-10
PROPOSALS,

IJ For publishing Daily Morning Journal IN New
York city, under the title Of the NEW YORK TIMES
AND COMMERCIAL INTELLIGENCER, to be
devoted to Politics, News, and Commercial lnteiii-
gence.
Tie well known fact that the Republicans Of this city
are destitute OF an organ promugae their opinions
and advocate their principles connection with The De-
mocratic Press Of the INTERIOR has been subject OF re-
ierated complaint and regret. Circumstances Of ia,
vorable eonspirg measures have been adopted
to commence the publication Of the IimesaH Com
mreiai Inteiigeneer upon footing calculated to en-
sure It's independence and permanency.
The political character Of the Times and Gommercial
IntegeAesr will be strictly Democratic Republican, IL
will adhere to the principles OF the party which brought
into existence, and sustained the late administration. II
will labor define the ancient land marks and 10 main
tann their primo ygor the ANCIENT usages Of the party
which, whilst they observed, rendered II nync-
BILE, and secured simple aud constitutional admlnsua-
ton OF public affairs, the time that they pro-
NOTED in the highest degree the undivided Welfare aud
happiness OF the people.
In marking out This line, which both duty and incl-
nation will prompt TO pursue, desire TO be UNDER
stood conceivng that certain measures and points OF
policy entertained by portion oil the friends OF the
present general administration, form no part oil the he-
publican creed Of binding influence, but as mere ques
lions Of expedency upon debateable ground and
may be opposed according the dictates Of conscience
and Judgment This paper will therefore be found IN
opposition 10 the "unried erpedsnfs OF the day Inc
country needs epose from the agalions or 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 oil trade ana
industry. II the Of the government shall be
found at variance with the suggestions OF sound pocy'
are brought into collision public sentiment every
consideration for the public good cries aloud for their
abandonment To convince rulers, that they mis-
take in some sense, the indications OF the public Will,
ando embody the scattered rays Of that will in SEN
sibe and tangible form, will be deemed TO come within
the legitimate province OF our Journal and 10 compose
prominent objects in the prosecution OF our design OF
great importance and interest every class OF the CON-
munity
We cannot resist the conviction that the Republican
party Of this State has been placed towards It's oppo-
nents in false posltion-a position which exposes 10
eminent hazards which is daily and hourly weakening
its energies and which, in its threatened prostratlon,
surrounds country with the worst dangers ever APP
pretended from the ascendency OF federal misrule
When we contemplate the havoc which has been made
with the Republican legons in the short space OF eight
ten months, and weigh the certain indications OF he
evolutionary movements in public sentiment, IN states
where elections are pending, we cannot regard it as
either SAFE just honorable to deviate further from
the republican track" marked by the footsteps OF
those distinguished Presidents who have in times past
secured the trumphs Of Democracy, we feel impeed TO
reject the Councils which bring nothing but defeat
and humiliation The Times and Commercial Inteih-
gcnccr will therefore endeavcr expunge the hereses
which have been nterpolated into our creed, and to
rectfy the errors into which they had betrayed our
friends To the genuine cause Of Democracy we are
sincerely welded, and there is power, whilst It re-
mains pure that divorce our affections or fervor
from it. But from the spurious faith Of the Loco Focos
and destrucves sought TO be engraed upon our prn-
cpes, and to be substituted in our embraces we turn
with adherence and disgust. The Times and Com
ercia Ineihgcncer will labor to restore the Democra-
cy again to its former vantage ground-to re-organi7e
its broken and dispirited legons-o rebuild its crumb
ling temples, and re-esabsh its ancient ordinances
and to behold it again ourishing and predominant, re-
hecng the moral influence OF this great republic abroad
ard protecting the interests OF its numerous people at
home. We shall reoiceto be permitted to contribute
efforts to this consummation II car labors shall
prove ruitless admonitions 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. II 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 earth shall ,oitness that pc innocent"
The Times and Commercial InfeHigenecr, will
cognize the organization Of the Republican Party in this
City effected at the meeting of the City Hall
the evening Of the I'd Of January, 1888. The reso
lutions and address adopted that OCCASION will be
referred -eoasonanl 10 Republican principles and
adapted to the present crisis in public and political
affairs.
