NATIONAL DEMOCRATIC REVIEW.

NATIONAL DEMOCRATIC REVIEW, monthly peri
riodical, to be devoted to Literature and Poll
tics, and particularly TO a discussion Of the
great principles which form the basis Of the
Democratic party. That work of this char
acter, taking a high range, avoiding entirely
the sphere Of mere personal abuse and calumny
and aspiring, at least, to dignified and philo-
sophical survey Of all the great questions Of a
political character bearing upon the age and
country, is demanded by the exigences of the
present, and proper regard for the future of
the Democratic party, few, if any, would be
ready to deny. That the REVIEW will prove
the desiaGdtam, its editor cannot venture to
hope--that it will supply to material extent,
the public demand, it is probably not AFRO
gance to claim.
The necessity for monthly periodical, pub
lished at the capital Of the nation, and devoted
chiefly to the advocacy and discussion of the
great doctrines which have been sustained, du-
ring the last seventy years, by the Democratic
party, ought not to be questioned Our party
numbers among its members some OF the most
accomplished scholars, sages, and statesmen of
modern times. These men are acquainted with
our history, and with The history of all the re-
publcs Of the world their lives have been
given to the study of the innumerable causes
to which we must look in inquiring in regard
to the rise, progress, and decline Of empires ;
they have stndied the nrincinIes Of .eoverhrnent
at their original foundatons--have watched
their gradual development and application in
the long march Of ages, and know, not only
the rocks and qucksands upon which human
systems have toundered butalso that course Of
policy which makes a nation great. For the
statement of facts required by the necessities Of
the hour and FOR the discussions Of principles,
destined 10 be Immediately applied, the news
paper affords undoubtedly the best facilities
and the party is fortunate in having at Wash
ington at least two daily and three weekly
papers which rank second to none in The nation
but, for an elaborate examination and develop
mcnt Of a series Of measures, or course Of
policy, intended to be applied by the delibcr-
ate action of legislative bodies, it must be ad-
mitted more space is required than is afforded
by the ordinary issues Of the country.
