NEW YORK TRIBUNE.
Daily Semi.Weckly and Weekly.
PROSPECTUS FOR lsIs.

issues OF the SEm-WEEgLY and WEEKLY editions.
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 invol- !
we'd in obscurity, and needs calculations TO few in
lellgent 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 sIrug-
Cling arduous, li,iul 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 wel-being
IL opposes all attempts 10 array the poor against the
rich In frucss contests and Jaeiul hareds; all in
elements to social anarchy, all clamor for the des
rueton Of banks and other institutes OF the exist
ing order of things in commerce ami industry. In
lis view, the work Of the true reiormer is one OF
creation, notdesuuction; for when the good or even
the better is made manifest, the bad and the rea-
lively defective will surely pass away. The open
and uncOmpromising foe of intemperance, of licen-
tOusness, 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
radation and suffering The great problem Of the
age, that of the true organization and consequent
elevation of labor, will receive from il all the atten
lion 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 10 promote the true interests
Of mankind will find in this paper an araent cham
pon.
We need hardly aad that in regard to the party
politics Of the day, The Tribune is heart and soul
devoted TO the Wing cause. Claiming for the Whig
party no approach to perfection either in measures
or men, in it that spirit OF devotion to law
and order, bent with intelligence, liberty OF speech
aud action, and practical inclinaton n to reforms,
which are vainy sought in the ranks of that antag.
onist host which perverts the name of democracy
to cover the most servile obsequiousness to the be-
hests Of slavery, and has at length involved the
country in an unighteous war whereof the exten-
sion OF savehoding 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 dissuade, no ruftan denuncatlon
and threatening deter us from exposing the iniqui-
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 desst from its schemes of aggression,
invasion and gigantic robbery by conquest, and take
the necessary steps to bring 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 manitesting a dis
position to treat on the basis Of a mutual forgive
ness Of injuries and respect for rights With such
a spirit cVincad by our National Executive, the
ditions of peace might be settled within month,
and the rulnous eXpensiveness OF military prepa-
ratons immediately arrested.
In setting forth those features of The Tribune
which are TO some extent peculiar or characteristics
II 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
mens 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
! 20 us during the ensuing year in Great Britain,
France and Italy, and eastern Europe respectively,
" hile we are steadily maturing plans for procuring
early and direct advces from every part of the
world whence important intelligence may be ex-
! peced. If systematic eXerton and unsparng out
! lay will effect it, we are determined to maintain
for our Journal a recognized rank among the most
prompt ample, lucid, and reliable in furnishing news
of any in the land, while deieming to none in
the fearless expression Of its sentiments, and in
uncaIcuating devotion to the best good of our
country and Of all human kind.
