|TTHE successful lay ing Of tho trans Atlantic
4 Il Telegraph Gable marks q new era in the
history OF Human Progress. Henceforth Eu-
rope, Western Asia, and Northern Africa lie
within an hours distance from our shores, and
| the battle which decides the fate of a kingdom,
the capture Of q Vienna OF Giibralter, the fall
of q dynasty, the triumph Of a ,isurpation, the
birth Of an heir to royalty, the death Of q Mic
holas or Wellington, in any country which
touches the Mediterranean, the Euxine. the
/ Black Sea or the German Ocean, will be pub
lished in New York the next morning, if not
onthe very day fits occurrence In mo-
ment, as it were, we have been thrown into the
Immediate intellectual neighborhood Of the
whole civilized and a large portion Of the semi
barbarous world. The rise and fall of stocks
in London CT Paris will henceforth be reported
from day to day in the Journalism our seaboard
cities. The boldest operators in Wall Street
will refuse to buy or sell until they have read
the quotations Of that days business in the
Royal Exchange and at the Boarse, whose
transactions viii have closed an hour or SO be-
fore ours can begin. A revolution in Paris, an
important vote in Pertinent, an insurrection
in Italy, a fire in Consantinople, will he dis
cussed around the breakfast tables of New York
a few hours after it's occurrence. 4 mighty
though silent transformation in the conditions
ofhuman existence has just been effected by
the little wire stretching across the ocean shed
from the coast of Ireland to that of British
America and one inevitable result Of this must
be an unexampled community of feeling and
interest among the nations Of Christendom, and
a consequent desire for o mere intimate ac-
quaintance with each others doings through
the medium Of the Newspaper Press. It seems
hardly possible that thousands should not
henceforth read their own journals, who have
hitherto been content with an occasional glance
at. those taken by their neighbors; while many
who have hitherto been content with Weekly
issue will now require a Semi-Weekly or
Daily. In short, Intelligence, always a vital
element of growth, in wisdom, success in bust
ness, or enjoyment life, has now become
indispensable to ALL. .... -42l
II Il N E W YORK TRIBU NE, now
more than seventeen years old, which was the
trst journal in the world that appeared regu-
larly On an imperial eight sheet at so low a
price as two cents, and which has attained the
unparalleled aggregate Of more than 100000
subscriptions, respectfully solicits it's share Of
the new patronage which the Metropolitan
Press IS henceforth constrained, at {: heavy
weekly cost, to deserve. It asks especially the
patronage and active favor the Republicans-of
those who hate all forms OF oppression, and
desire that every rational being shall be free to
employ his faculties in such innocent manner
as he shall deem best-of those who would ex-
tend Liberty and limit Slayery-but it further
| appeals likewise to all who look and labor for
the return of National thrift, plenty, prosperi-
| ty, through the Prosperity Of American Indus
try By wisely discriminating duties on Imports
all who favor National Progress through in
| ternal deyelopement and moderation rather
| than ~ external aggression and extension-all
who would rather have the National resources
devoted to the construction of a, railroad to
the Pacific than to the purchase or conquest
! OF Mexico, Nicaragua or.Cuba-aI who would
retrench radically our present inordinate Fee
deral expenditures by abolishing or immense
~ reducing the Army and Navy, and expend-
ing the money thus saved on works Of benei-
| cencc which will endure to bless our children
| all who profoundly realize that Righteousness
exalteth q nation" and that no rea, advantage
can ever accrue to any person or community
from acquisitions or successes achieved BY
means which cOntravene the laws Of Eternal
Right. The free allotment Of limited portions
OF the Public Lands to- Actual Settlers thereon,
and every hopeful plan intended to diminish
the sum Of human misery from dearth Of en-
ployu1ent or Inadequate recompense-every
scheme especially that seeks to help the
unfortunate by enabling them and teaching
them to help themselyes-nayst command our
earnest sympathy and cooperation.
Within the present year, 7 H L r RIBU NE
has provided itself with a new and faster Press
at a cost Of $4,000, merely that some of our
subscribers may receive their papers q mail
earlier than they otherwise might do. With
correspondents at the most important points
throughout the civilized world, and staff of
writers chosen from among the best in the
country, we believe that even those who dis
like the politics of our sheet concede toit frank
ness in avowing it's convictions and ability in
maintaining them. We appeal, then, to those
who believe that an increased circulation of
The Tribune would conduce to the political,
intellectual and moral we'll being Of the Repub-
lie, to aid us in efecting such Increase AS
we employ no travelling solicitors Of suhscrip-
tions, we ask our present patrons in every To-
cality to speak to their neighbors and friends
In our behalf: we shall gladly receive from any
friend lists Of those who would receive and
read q specimen copy ofone of our editions,
and shall be particularly grateful to those who
may send us such names from post Offices at

additions may thus be made to our circulation
shall be paralleled by increased efforts and
expenditures to make our issues more valuable
and useful than they have hitherto been
