Daily national era. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1854, 1854-01-14

The National Era is weekly newspaper
devoted to Literature and Politics.
In Literature, it aims to unite the Beautiful
with the True, and to make both Immediately
subservient to the practical purposes Of every
day life.
In Politics, il advocates the Rights Of Man,
and the Equality Of Rights, and opposes what
ever violates or tends to violate them whether
this be Involuntary Personal Seryitude, Civil
Despotism Spiritual Absolutism, Class Legis-
lation, the Selfshness of Capital, the Tyranny
of Combination, the Oppression of Majority,
or the Exactions Of Party.
1t holds no fellowship with the Whig and
Democratic organizations, believing that the
main issues on which they have been arrayed
against each other are obsolete or settled, and
that they are now chiefly used by the Sectional
Interest of Slavery, to impair tho love Of Lib
erty natural to the American mind, and to
subiugate the American People TO ita rule. Dis
claiming all connection with them, il yet SYM
pathizcs with those Of their adherents who are
honestly seeking through them to advance the
substantial interests of the country, although
il must believe that they have not chosen the
better way.
It is supporter Of the Independent Democ-
racy, which holds that the Truths Of the Dec
laration OF Independence are practical that in
their light the Constitution Of the United
States il TO be interpreted, that to them the
laws and institutions and usages Of the coun-
try should be conformed-a Party, whose
motto Is, Union not for the sake Of Union,
bat for the sake Of Freedom and Progress I;
and Law, not for the sake Of Law, but for the
Protection Of Human Rights and Interests
the only sure foundation Of order and concord.
In no sense is it the organ Of a Party, or a
nero Party Paper, but absolutely free and
independent claiming to speak by author
ityn for nobody except its editor, and recogni-
sing no authority in any quarter to prescribe its
course and policy.
The Eighth Volume Of the Era will com.
mcnce on the first of January ensuing, and be
enlarged by the addition Of four columns. We
have neglected no means that could promise to
make il an agreeable companion for the House
hold, and an efficient co-adjutor to the enlight
I'D Politician. II has secured able correspond
ents at homo and abroad, and no journal in
the country can surpass the Era as it respects
contributors to its Literary Department.
The Era publishes condensed reports OF the
proceedings Of Congress, explains movements
in that body, the causes Of which do not always
lie upon tho surface, and from its position Ia
enabled to keep constant watch upon the ac
t;on Of the Federal Government in relation
