rTHE successful laying Of the TRANSATLANTIC
l Telegraph Gable marks a new era In .he
history Of Human Progress. Hencefor,h, hu-
rope, Western Asia, and Northern Africa lie
" Thin an hours distance from our shores, and
tho battle which decides the fate OF kingdom,
the capture of Vienna or Gibraltar, the laH
of dynasty, the triumph of usurpatIon, the
birth of an heir to royalty, the death OF MIC
holas or Wellington, in any country ~nicn
touches the Mediterranean, the Eu1lne, the
BLACK Sea or the German Ocean, will be pub
lished in New York the next morning. II not
on the very day Of its occurrence. In mo-
ment, as it were, We have been thrown into the
immediate intellectual neis hborhood OF the
whole civilized and large Pr IT on OF the semi
barbarous world. The rise and fall OF stocks
in London or Paris will henceforth be reported
from day to day in the journals OF our sea board
cities. The boldest operators in Wall street
will refuse to buy or sell until they have read
the quotations of that days business on the
ROYAL Exchange and at the Bourss, whose
transactions will have closed an hour or 80 be-
fore ours can begin. A revolution in Paris, an
importont vote in Parliament an insurrectlon
in Italy fire in Constantinople, will be DIS
cussed around the breakfast tables of New ork
a 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 across the oceans bed
from the coast of Ireland to that OF British
America, and one inevitable result OF this must
be am unexampled community of feeling and
interest among the nations of Christendom. and
a consequent desire for more intimate &C
auaintance with each others doings through
the medium of 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 w eekly
issue will now require Semi Weekly or
Daily. In short, Intelligence, always vital
element of growth in wisdom, success in BUSH
ness, or endowment in life, has now become
indispensable to all.
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 2OO,OOO
subscriptions, respectfully solcits IFS share OF
| the new patronage which the Metropolitan
| Press is henceforth constrained, at heavy
weekly COST to deserve. 1t asks especially the
patronage and active favor of Republicans-oi
| 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
| extend Liberty and limit Slavery-but it fur
Their appeals likewise to all who look and labor
for the return of National thrift, plenty, pros
perity, through the Protection Of American
Industry by wisely discriminating duties on
| Imrorts-all who favor National Progress
through internal development and moderation
rather than by external aggression and extern
| sion-all who would rather have the National
/ resources devoted to the construction of rail-
road TO the Pacific than to the purchase OF con-
| quest of Mexico, Nicarauga or Cuba-au who
| would rctrcnch radically our present inordi-
nate Federal expenditures by abolishing or
| immensely reducil the Army and Navy, and
| expending the money thus saved on works OF
| benafcence which will endure to bless our
childrer-all who profoundly realize that
/" Righteousness exaltcth a nation and that
no real advantage can ever accrue to any Per-
son or community from acquisitions or success
| ses 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 intend
ed to diminish the sum of human misery from
dearth of employment or inadequate recon-
pense-every scheme especially that seeks to
| help the unfortunate by enabling them and
| teaching them to help themselves-must COM
| mand our earnes sympathy and cooperation.
| Within the present var, THE TR1BU IL
has provided itself with a new and faster Prees
! at cost OF $4,000, merely that some of our
| subscribers may receive their papers 4 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 an ong the best in the
| country, we believe that even those who dis
like the politics of oar sheet concede to il frank
ness in avowing its convie tons and ability in
maintaining them. We appeal. then. to those
who believe that an incr ed circulation of
The Tribune would conducc to the political,
intellectual and moral we'll being of the Repub-
l;c to aid us in effccting such increase AS
we employ no travelling solicitors of subscrip-
tons, 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 specimen cory 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 paralleled by increased efforts and
expenditures to make our issues re- valuable
and useful than they have hitherto been. %
