THE NEW YORK TRIBUNE--l857-S.
THE TRIBUNE was first issued as Dali,
ly on the 10th of April, 1871. It's Week

same year; its Semi Weekly IN Nay, I545.A
Il was the first daily in America to'issue dOua
bic or eight-page sheet at low price, andit hn8s
kept at least even with the foremost offs rvai1l
in the rapid expansion Of Newspaper enterprise,
which'the great extension Of Railroads, and the.
establishment Of the Telegraph system have
crowded into these lass sixteen 0ventful years.
No larger journal is afforded at so low prieeln
any quarter Of the world none in America, no
matter at what price issued, pays an eq9ai
amount, weekly or monthly, for intellectual La
Dor. IL employs correspondents regularly in the
leading capitals OF Europe, and at the most im--
portant points on this continent, with liberals

full ,early and accurate information IS the hrssAi
object of Newspaper, and the timely and
thorough calculation thereof as the chief end OF
its Editorials. In that spirit, the Tribune has
been and will be conducted, extending aRd per-:
teotlng its correspondence fast as Ihe increase
OF its patronage will Justify the expense. Should

THE TRIBUNE deals with questions fPo-
hhcal Economy, Public Policy. Ethics, Material
Progress, and whatever may affect the Intellec-
tual, Moral, Social and Physical Well-being OF
mankind, dOgmatic Theology alone excepted.
It's leading idea is the hOnOring Of honest, useful
Work in whatever sphere or capacity, and the
consequent elevation of the LabOring Class in
knowledge, virtue and general esteem. II is
necessarily hostile to Slavery under all its as
poets, to fntemperancs in whatever form or de-
gree with its accessories, to War save in the de-
fence of Country and Liberty against actual in

diversifying Home Industry by discriminating
Tariff policy which tends to increase the
price of Grain to the farmer, while diminishing
that Of Bread TO the artisan, by reducing the dis

and, of course, reducing the cost Of
their transfer. Regarding Fillibusterism In all
