stat Of writer's and reporters at hons, resardins
full, early and accurate information as the first
object Of Newspaper, and the timely and
thorough elucilation thereof as the chief end Of
its EDITORIALS. In that spirit, the Tribune has

TO our readers, publish each morning a synopsis
of the preceding DAYS occurrences throughout
Elropc, Northern Africa and Western Asia, with
regular reports Of the markets, the monetary as

With god atlas beside him and his daily pa

artiZan within days ride of the city NAV then

world throughout the day preceding; aud il
seems hardly possible that any who can read,
but especially one.who has children to educate,
will longer deny him self the pleasure and profit
of daily journal. The same is true measure
ably of those who live further inland; though,
where nltis are unfreqnent, Semi Weekly, or
even Weekly DaDer may seem sufficient.
THE TRIBUNE deals with questions of Pc
itcal Economy, Public Policy, Ethics, Material
Progress, and whatever may affect the Intellcc
tual, Moral, Social AMI Physical weil-bcing OF
mankind, dogmltic Theology alone excepted.
Its lea ling idea is the honoring Of honest, useful
Work in whatever sphere or capacity, and the
consequent elevation Of the LlbOring Class in
knowledge, virtue AMI general esteem. Ii is
necessarily hostile 10 Slavery under all its as
poets, to Intemperancs in Whatever form or de-
gree with its accessories, to War save in the de-
fence of Country and Liberty against actual in
Vasion, AMI to every form of Gambling, desiring
TO see Production extended and encouraged,
while wild Speculation and useless Traffic are
cur.ailed, it favors the policy of sustaining and
diversifying Home Industry by discriminating
Tariff policy which tends to increase the
price of Grain to the farmer, while diminishing
that of Broad to the artisan, by reducing the dis
lance across which their respective products are
exchanged, and, of course, reducing the cost Of
Their transfer. Regarding Fillibusterism in all
its phases, and every form and device of Ma
tional covetoUsness, with unqualified adherence
as the blne Of Republics, and in their triumph
the grave of Equal Human Rights, We seek by
every means TO WOO and win the attention of our
countrymen from projects OF aggrlndfzcment 4
abroad to enterprises of development and benefi- .
cence at home, foremost among which we rank /
Railroad through the heart of orr Territory to .
connect the waters of the Atlantic with those OF .
the Pacific. Believing that the goods of this .
life not vet fairly distributed and that no one
ready to work should ever famish in unwilling
idleness, il lends an open car to every sugges-
ton OF Social improvement which docs not couD-
terFail the dictates Of eternal Morality nor war
upon that natural right of every one to whatsO-
ever he has fairly produced or honestly acquired,
whose denial mist sink mlnl6nd into the chaos
and night of blrbariSm and universal squalOr.
With profound Consciousness that iders, drunk

In the way he should 20, will rarely in AFTER

Vice an Crim9-.'ilt a trde z lueatiOa-Relig-
ious, Moral an Industrial as well as Intellectu-
Ais the most cTe ;tive temporal antidpte to the
errors AMI woes of ourrace. Recognizing in the
most degraded specimen of Humanity, divine
spark which should be reverently cherished, not
trodden out, We have charity for all
form of evil but those which seek personal ad-
vantage through the debascment Of our fellow
beings. The chlm1iOn of no class or caste, the
1evotee Of no sect, we w1Hld fain be the inter
prefer to each other Of meas better impulses and
aspirations, the hlrbingcr of gener.'l concord be-
tween Labor and ClDital, and among those whom
or Misrepresentation have thrown
into unnatural ant gDaism. A cotcmDorary once
observed that he never knew hard, graSping,
nisgardly employer who did not hate the Tri-
Dune, nor a genuine, lar5e -souled, kindly one,
Wiling to 1--we and let live, who did not like it.
We ask no higher praise, no warmer att1station.
