NEW YORK TRIBUNE.
Daily, Semi. Weekly and Weekly.
PROSPECTUS FOR 1876.

issues Of the SEMl-WEEKLY aud WEEkLY edilons.
In announcing this external renovation, a few
words with the public respecting our attitude and
aims may not be deemed inappropriate.
The character Of The Tribune is not now inv0l-
we'd in obscurity, and needs calculations 10 few in
tellgent readers. This paper aspires to be in all
things a journal of progress and reform not mere
" a dial on which humanity may mark its srug-
Cling arduous, ftlul advances, but an effective,
though humble instrument and impulse of the .
movement Profoundly convinced that all war,
whether between nations, classes, or persons, is ia
tally hostile to true progress and human we-being
it opposes all attempts TO array the poor against the
rich in irUtess contests and baleiul haredsi all in
citements to social anarchy, all camor for the des-
ruclon Of banks aud other institutes Of the exist
ing order OF things in commerce ami industry. In /
lis view, the work Of the true reiUrmer Is one OF
creation, not destruction; for when the good even
The better is made manifest, the bad and the rela-
lively defective will surely pass away. The open /
and uncompromising foe of lntemperance, OF lcen- I
0usness, of slavery, and every form OF oppression,
its profers welcome and hospitality to every gene
rous and hopeful idea, looking to the emancipation
Of industry from social depression, tyranny, or Ca
price, and the toiling millions from ignorance, deg
radiation, and suffering. The great problem of the
age that of the true organization and consequent
elevation of labor, will receive from it all the atten
ton and sympathy which can be shown in the COL
umns Of journal crowded with the exciting incl
dents and discussions OF the day. In short, what
ever seems calculated to promote the true interests
of mankind will find in this paper an ardent cham
pion.
We need hardly add that in regard to the party
politics of the day, The Tribune is heart and soul
devoted 10 the WING cause. Claiming for the Wing
party no approach to perfection either in measures
or men, We in it that spirit of devotion to law
and order, bent with intelligence, liberty Of speech
and action, and practical inclination to reforms
which are vany sought in the ranks Of that antag.
onst host which perverts the name of democracy
to cover the most serve ob5equiousness to the be-
hests Of slavery, and has at length involved the
country in an unlghteous war whereof the eXten-
sion OF slaVeholding was the primary impulse and
is morally sure to be the most material result. To
all war; but especially to this war, this paper mus:
ever maintain an attitude of determined opposition,
as destructive of the happiness Of men and abhor-
rent to the beneicene Of holiness OF God. No false
/ patriotism shall dssuade, no ruifan denuncaton
and threatening deter us from exposing the niqui-
ty and fearful mischief of this war and urging the
christianity and true patriotism Of the land to unite
/ in the most efficient measures to compel our Gov
ernment to desist from its schemes of aggression,
invasion and gigantic robbery by conquest and take
the necessary steps to bring a speedy peace. This
may be done by Withdrawing our troops from that
portion of the Mexican territory to which Texas
never had plausible claim, and manifesting dis
position 10 treat on the basis OF a mutual forgive
ness of injuries and respect Tor rights. With such
aRpir evincad by our National Executive, the con-
ditOns of peace might be settled within a month,
and the ruinous eXpensiveness of military prepa-
rat'ons immediately arrested.
In setting forth those features Of The Tribune
which are 10 some extent peculiar or characteristic,
it is not intended to intimate that to these its col
umns are wholly or mainly devoted. On the con-
trary, no labor or expense is grudged to render it
equal to any other Journal IN those features which
are common to many if not all. The editor known
as such to the public is aided in the several depart
ments OF literature and criticism, commercial trans
actions, city intelligence, and general news by as.
sistants whose ability has been tested, and whose
time and best efforts are devoted to this work. In
the single department of Foreign correspondence
three several writers of capacity and ripe expert
ence will be engaged in observing for and writing
10 us during the ensuing year in Great Britain
France and Italy, and eastern Europe respectively
while we are steadily maturing plans for procuring
early and direct advices from every part of the
world whence important intelligence may be ex-
pected. If systematic eXertion and unsparing out
lay will effect it, we are determined to maintain
for our journal recognized rank among the most
prompt, ample, lucid, and reliable in furnishing news
the fearless expression of its sentiments, and in
uncalculating devotion to the best good OF our
country and of all human kind.
