THE New YORK TRIBUNE was first issued
as a small Daily paper, in April, l84l its
Weekly and Semi. Weekly editions are Of
more recen, origin. I. commenced with
few hundred subscribers and slender pros.
pecls Of patronage or aid ofsany kind; it
has now Seveniy Thousand subscribers for
or constant purchasers Of its regular issues,
Ia larger circulation than was eyer attained
by any other Political journal, } with an ex-
.ensive Advertising business, ample maleri.
ais and facilities, and an income, which is
abundantly satisfactory to its publishers.
These facts are recapi,ulated in spirit OF
heartfelt gratitude to that wide American pub
lie by which its faults have been so tender
ly regarded and its merits so generously ack-
nowedged.
TIE course Of The Tribute is still onward.
Commenced individually by him who has
continued to be its chief Editor, the number
of its proprie,crs has since been gradually
increased 10 twelve,, including all those re-
sponsibly connected with its conduct, Edit
oria, Financial or Mechanical. These pur-
pose and hope in time to make still further
application Of the generel principle that lthe
workman should be his own employer and
director, and should receive the full reward
Of his labor. The quickened sense of re-
spoDsibili,y and the more thorough devotion
Of mind and muscle 10 the appointed work
which this system induces, will be found to
overbalance any incidental disadvantages, il
its application be wisely made, so that the
new idea and tine old habits may be gradu
ally and safely harmonized.
The Tribune is preeminen.ly newspaper
It's first aim is 10 present lucid and accu
rate panorama of the living world arount
us. Whatever importance. its Editors may
attach to their own opinions, they deem i
of still greater moment that their readers
shall be supplied with all data essential II
the formation of correct opinions for them
selves. Hence special attention is given II
reliable Correspondence from the most i'm
portan, points throughout the world, whil
The Electric Telegraph is largely employed
in the procurement of the earliest tdings o
uanspiring events. When News presse
