PROSPECTUS OF THE DAILY NATIONAL ERA


| shall issue, on the I'd day of January en-
suing, the DAILY NATIONAL Era, a Political
and Literary Newspaper.
In Politics, it will advocate the Rights OF
Man, and the Equality of Rights, and oppose
whatever violates or tends to violate them,
whether this be Involuntary Personal Servi-
tude, Civil Dsspotism, Spiritual Absolutism,
Class Legislation, the Solfshness of Capital,
the Tyranny of Combination, the Oppression of
q Majority, or the Exactions Of Party.
Il will hold no fellowship with the Wing
and Democratic organizations, believing that
the main Issues on which they have been ar
rayed against each other are obsolete or settled,
and that they are now chiefly used by the SEQ
tional Interest Of Slavery, to impair the love Of
Liberty natural to the American mind, and to
subiueasc the American People to its rule. Dis
claiming all connection with them, u will yet
svmpathize with those Of their adheronts who
are honestly seeking through them to advance
the substantial interests Of the country, although
it must believe that they have mot chosen the
better way
II viii be a supporter Of the Independents
Democracy, which holds that the Truths OF the
Declaration of Independence are practical that
in their light the Constitution Of the United
States is to be interpreted; that TO them the
laws and institutions and usages of the country
should be conformed--a Party, whose motto
is, Union, not for the sake Of Union, but for the
sake OF Freedom and Progress; and Lasc, not
lor the sake Of Law, but for the protection OF
