EUyHE Sixteenth Volume of the Democratic
Il Review commences withthe present No.
The publisher cannot omit the occasion it af-
fords, to congratulate its readers and friends,
upon the great victory recently achieved by
the cause Of their common principles vic.
tory not less important in its consequences,
than glorious in lis triumph, after the unpre
cedented severity ofthe recent contest Of par
I ties. Originally established at a period OF the
teeepesl depression of the Democratic cause,
in the memorable year Of 1857, this Review
has ever taken an active, and, it is believed,
not ineffective part, in the long and keenI
contested battles of opinion, by which Ne
country has been more or less deeply agitated.
Having freely shared the worst disasters, the
| gloOm.est depresslons, may it not fairly be al
lowed to ask and hope to share now the ben
eft of the ,rie,nph and prosperity, of the De-
| mocracy of the country! 1t has sustainelit-
! sell through considerable portions of that Pc
rod, only by large pecunary sacrifices caused
by the ,eiinqueneles of too many of itsssub-
| scrIbers--through seasons when zeal for the
}prmciplest to which it was devoted could alone
afford motive for its continuance at SO much
unrsquitted expenditure of both money, time
and intellectual effort. lis Publisher now
feels fairly entitled TO invoke an active and
generous fIendiiness of support, on the part
of its subscribers and the intelligent members
OF its parry generally, for its support Our
opponents have recently organised extensive
arrangements for the establishment of a SINH
lar work Oh the other SIDE of our great dyis-
ion Of parties-to counteract,' as, it is said,
the perncious influence OF the Democratic
Review Establ shed under imposing auspi-
ces of eminent political and literary names IN
| the ranks OF our opponents, and sioubtlers to
be sustained by. the ovel flowing means posses
sed BY that party, to sustain work OF that
| character, it thus holds out the prospsc OF an
honorable rivalry. which the Democratic Re
view cheeriuily accepts, but which the Den
ocratic party must contribute to enable At to
| maintain, in manner worthy OF that party, and
Of its coed, great and glorious principles
The way to serve it., and to and in that ptir-
pose, is, at once to remit promptly the debts
