Daily national era. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1854, 1854-01-20

The National Era is weekly newspaper,
devoted to Literature and Politics
In Literature, it aims to unite the Beautiful
with the True, and to mako both Immediately
subservient to the practical purposes Of every
day life.
In Politics, it advocates the Rights Of Man,
and the Equality Of Rights, and opposes what
ever violates or tends to violate them, whether
this bo involuntary Personal Servitudc, Civil
Despotism, Spiritual Absolutism, Class Legis
lation, the Selfshncss Of Capital, the Tyranny
of Combination, the Oppression Of a Majority,
or the Exactions Of Party.
II holds no fellowship with the Wing 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 nsed by the Sectional
Interest of Slavery TO impair the love of Lib
erty natural TO the American mind, and to
subjugate the American People to its rule. Dis
claiming all connection with them, il yet sym
pathizes with those Of their adherents who are
honestly seeking through them to advance the
substantial interests of the country, although
it must believe that they have not chosen the
better way.
II 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 Consultation Of the United
States ia to be interpreted, that to them the
laws and institutions and usages Of the coun-
try should be conformed--a Party, whose
motto in, Union, not for the sake Of Union,
but for the sake Of Freedom and Progress !;
and Lam, 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 Party, or
mere Party Paper, but absolutely free and
independent claiming to speak by author
ityr for nobody except its editor and recogni-
sing no authority in any quarter to prescribe its
course and policy.
Tho Eighth Volume Of the Era will CON-
mencc 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 it an agreeable companion for the House
hold, and an efficient co-adjutor TO the enlight
ed Politician. Il has secured able correspond
ents at home and abroad, and no journal IN
the country can surpass the Era as il respects
contributors to its Literary Department.
The Era publishes condensed reports OF tho
proceedings Of Congress, explains movements
in that body, the causes Of which do not always
lie upon the surface, and from it's position is
enabled to keep constant watch upon the 40
ton Of the Federal Government in relation
