change aud at the B0urse, whose tIansac
tions viii have closed an hour or so be
fore ours can begin, A reyolution in Par
is, an important vote in Parliament, an IN
surrection in Italy, a fire in Constantine
pie, will be discussed around the break
\ tables of New 7 ork few hours after
Its occurrence. A mighty though silent
transformation in the conditions of human
existence has Just been effected by the
little wire stretching ocross the ocean 5
bed from the coast of Ireland to that OF
British America, and one inevitable re
suit of this must be an unexamplcd com
nuaity of feeling and interest among the
nations of Christcndom, and a consequent
desire for more intimate acquaintance
with each others doings through the me-
dunn of the Newspaper Press. 1t seams
hardly possible that thousands should not
henceforth regularly read their own jour
nails, who have hitherto been content with
an occasional glance at those taken BY
their neighbors while many who have
been content with Weekly issue, will
now require Semi Weekly or Daily. In
short, Intelligence, always vital element
of growth in wisdom, success in business,
or enjoyment in life, has now become IN
dispensable to all.
Tie NEW Y DIRK TRIBUNE, now more
than seventeen years old, which was the
FIRST Journal in the world that appeared
regularly on an imperial eight-page sheet
at SO low a price as two cents, and which
has attained the unparalleled aggregate of
more than 100000 subscriptions, respect
fully soIicits It's share Of new patronage
which the Metropolitan Press Is hence
forth constrained, at heavy weekly cost,
to deserve 1t asks especially the patron
age aud active favor of REPUBLICANS
of those who hate all forms of oppression,
and desire that every rational being shall
be free to employ his faculties in such IN
nocens manner as he shall deem best-ot
those who would extend Liberty and linn
it Slavcry-but it further appeals like
wise to all who look and labor for the re-
turn of National thrift, plenty, prosperity,
through the Protection of American In
dustry by wisely discriminating duties on
Imports-aIl who favor National Progress
throughinternal Development and meliora-
ton rather than by external aggression
and extension-all who would rather have
the National resources devoted to the con-
struotion of Railroad to the Pacific than
to the purchase or conquest of Mexico,
Nicaragua or Cuba-all who would re-
trench radically our present inordlnate
Federal expenditures by abolishing or i'm
mensely reducing the Army and Navy,
and expending the money thus saved on
works of beneicence which will endure to
bless our children-all who profoundly
realize that (" RIGHTEoUsNEss exhalteth
nation" and that no real advantage can
ever accrue to any person or community
| from acquisitions or successes achieved BY
means which contravene the laws Of Eter
nal Right. The free allotment of limited
portions of the Public Lands to Actua
Settlers thereon, and every hopeful plan
intended to diminish the sum of human
misery from dearth of employment or in
adequate recompense-every scheme es
pecially that seeks to help the unfortunate
by enabling and teaching them to helI
themselves-must command our earnest
sympathy and cooperation.
Within the present year, The TRIBUNE
has provided itself with new and fasteI
Press at a cost of $4,000, merely thai
some of our subscribers may receive then
papers mail earlier than they otherwise
might do. With correspondents at tht
most important points throughout the civ
| ilized world and staff of writer's choser
from the best in the country, We believe
that even those who dislike the polite:
Of our sheet concede to its frankness il
avowing its convictions and ability IL
maintaining them, We appeal, then, t.
those who believe that an increased circu
lation Of THE TRIBUNE would c0nduce t,
| the political, intellectual and moral well
being of the Republic, to aid US in effect
ing such increase. As we employ nj
travelling solicitors of subscriptions, We
ask our present patrons in every locality
to speak to their neighbors and friends il
our behalf; we shall gladly receive from
any friend lists of those who would re
ceive and read specimen copy of one O
our editions, and shall be particularly
grateful to those who may send us sucf
names from post-ofices at WHICH we have
now no subscribers. Whatever additions
may thus be made to our circulation shal
be paralleled by increased efforts and ex
penditures to make our issue more valua
bic and useful than they have hitherto
been.
THE TRIBUNE is printed on large i'm
