history Of Human Progress. Henceforth, Eu-

within an hours distance from our shores and
the battle which decides the fate of kingdom,
the capture of Vienna or Gibraltar, the fall
of dynasty the triumph of usurpation, the
birth of an heir to royalty, the death Of Mic
holas or Wellington, in any country which
touches the Mediterranean, the Euxine, the
Black Sea OF the German Ocean, will be pub

on the very day of its occurrence. In a mo-

Immediate intellectual neghborhood OF the

barbarous world The rise and fall of stocks
in London or Paris will henceforth bereported

importont vote in Parliament, an instruction
in Italy, fire in Constantinople, will be dis

a few hours after its occurrence. A mighty
though silent transformation in tho conditions
of human existence has Just been effected by
the little wire stretching across the oceans bed
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 a more intimate ac-
ouaintance with each others doings through
the medium the Newspaper Press. 1t 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 Semi Weekly OF
Daily. In short, Intelligence, always vital
element of growth in wisdom, success in busi-

THE NEW YORK TRIBUNE, now
more than seventeen years old, which was the
first journal in the world that appeared regu-
larly OH an imperial eight sheet at so low a
price as two cents, and which has attained the
Unparalleled aggregate of more than 200,0 900
subscriptions, respectfully solicits its share of
the new patronage which the Metropolitan
Press is henceforth constrained, at a heavy
weekly cost, to deserve. L asks especially the
patronage and 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 innocent manner
as he shall deem best-of those 'sho would
extend Liberty and limit Slavery--hut it fur
ther appeals likewise to all who look and labor
for the return of N ational thrift, plenty, pros
perity, through the Protection of American
Industry by wisely discriminating duties on
Imports-all who favor National Progress
through internal development and melioration
rather than by external aggression and extern
sion--aIl who would rather have the National
resources devoted to the construction of a rail-
road TO the Pacific than to the purchase or con-
quest Of Mexico, Nicarapga or Cuba-an who
would retrnnch radically our prt GENT inordi-
nate Federal expenditures by abolishing OF
immensely reducing the Army and Navy. and
expending the money thus saved on works Of
benefcence which will endure to bless our
childrcn-all who profoundly realize that
" righteousness exalteth ration" and that
no real advantage can ever accrue to any per-
son or community from acquisitions or success
ses achieved by means which contTavene the
laws of Eternal Right. The free allotment of
limited portions of the Public Lands to Actual
Settlers thereon, and every hopeful plan intend
ed to diminish the sum of human misery from
dearth of employment or inadequate recon-
pense-eyery scheme especially taat seeks to
help the unfortunate by enabling them and
tfaching them to help themselves-must COM
mand our earnest sympathy and cooperation.
Within the present year, THE TRIBUNE
has provided itself with new and faster Press
at cost OF $4,000, merely that some of our
subscribers may receive their Papers a mail
earlier than they otherwise might do. With
correspondents at the most important points
throughout the civilized world, and a 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 to il frank
ness in avowing its 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 well being of the Repub-
lie. to aid US in effecting such increase. As |
we employ no travelling solicitors of subscrip-
tions we ask our present patrons in every To-
cality to speak to their neighbors and friends
in our behelf; we shall gladly receive from any
friend lists of those who would receive and
read a specimen copy of one of our editions,
and shall be particularly grateful to those who
may send US such names from post offices at
which we have now no subscribers. Whatever
additions may thus be made TO our circulation
shall be paraleled by increased efforts and
expenditures to make our issues more valuable
and useful than they have hitherto been.

perial sheet, folded in quarto form, and mailed
