graphic Cable marks a new era in the history of HUI
man Progress. Henceforth, Europe, Western Asi,
and Northern Africa lie within an hours distanc,
from our shores, and the battle which decides tn,
fate OF a kingdom. the capture Of a Vienna or Gibral
ter, the fall OF a dynasty, the triumph of a usurpa
ton, the birth of an heir to royalty, the death Of
Nicholas or Wellington, in any country which touch
es the Mediterranean, the Euxine, the Black Sea OF
the German Ocean, will be published in New Yorb
the next morning, if not on the very day of its oc
currence. In a moment, as it were, we have beer
thrown into the immediate intellectual neiohbor
hood of the whole civilized and 6. large proportioY
of the semi-barbarous world. The rise and fall OF
stocks i'll London or Paris will henceforth be repor
ted from day to day in the journals of our sea-board
cities. The boldest operators in Wall street will re-
fuse to buy or sell until they have read the quota,
lions OF that days business on the Royal Exchange
and at the BourSe, whose transactions will have
closed an hour or 80 before ours can begin. A rev
olution in Paris, an important vote in Parliament. an
instruction in Italy, a fire in Constantinople will be
discussed around the breakfast tables of New York
a few hours after its occurrence. A mighty though
silent transformation in the conditions of human ex-
istence 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 ineyita-
bic result OF this must be an unexampled communi-
ty OF feeling and interest among the nations of Chris
tendon, and a consequent desire for more intimate
acquaintance with each others doings through the
medium or the Newspaper Press. 1t seems hardly
possible that thousands should not hencefo.th regn-
arly read their own journals, who have hitherto
been content with a Weekly issue which will now
require a emi Weekly or Daily. In short. Intelli-
gence, always a vital element of growth in wisdom.

become indispensable to all.
The NBw York TRIBUNE, now more than seven
teen 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 200. 600 subscriptions, respectfully solicits its
share OF the new patronage which the Metropolitan
Press is henceforth constrained, at a heavy weekly
cost, to deserve. 1t asks especially the patronage
and active favor OF REPUBLICANs-of those who hate
all forms Of oppression, and desire that every ration
al being shall be free to employ his faculties in such
innocent manner as he shall deem best--of those
who would extend Liberty and limit Slavery-but
it further appeals likewise to all who look and labor
for the return of National thrift. plenty prosperitv
through the protection of American Industry by
wisely discriminating duties on Imports-all who
favor National Progress through internal develop
ment and Moderation rather than by external aggres-
sion 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 con-
quest of Mexico, Nicaragua or Cuba-al who would
retrench radically our present lnordinate Federal ex-
penditures by abolishing or immensely reducing the
Army and Navy, and expanding the money thus
saved on works of benefcence which will endure to

real 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 eyery
hopeful plan intended to diminish the sum of human
misery from dearth of employment or inadequate re-
compensatory scheme especially that seeks to
help the unfortunate by enabling and teaching them
to help themselves-must command our earnest
sympathies and cooperation.
Within the present year, The TRIBUNE has provi-
ded itself with a new and faster Press at a cost of
$50, 900, merely that some of our subscribers NAV
receive their papers a mail earlier than they other
wise 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 dislike the
politics of our sheet concede to it frankness in ayow-
ing its convictions and ability in maintaining them
We appeal, then, to those who believe that an in
creased circulation of The TRIBUNE would conduce
to the political, Intellectual and moral well-being OF
the Republic, to aid us i'll ~effecting such increase
AS we employ no travelling solicitors of subscrip-
tions, we ask our present patrons in every locality
to speak to their friends and neighbors In our behalf
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 p~aralleled by increased efforts and expenditures
to mike our issues more valuable and useful than
they have hitherto been.
The TRIBUNE is printed on a large imperial sheet,
folded in quarto form, and mailed to subscribers on
