The successful laying Of the TRANSATLANTIC Tele-
graphic Cable marks a new era in the history of HUI
man Progress. Henceforth, Europe, Western Asia
and Northern Africa lie within an hours, distance
from our shores, and the battle which decides the
fate of a kingdom. the capture OF a Vienna or Gibral-
ter, the fall of dynasty, the triumph Of a usurpa-
tion, the birth of all heir to royalty, the death of a
Nicholas or Wellington, in any country which touch
es the Mediterranean, the Euxine, the Black Sea or
the German Ocean, will be published in New York
the next morning, if not on the very day of its oc-
currence. In a moment, as it were, we have been
thrown into the immediate intellectual neighbour
hood of the whole civilized and a large proportion
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
tons of that days business on the Royal Exchange
and at the Bourse, whose transactions will have
closed an hour or so before ours can begin. A rev.
olution in Paris, an important vote in Parliament, an
instruction in Italy, a fire in Constan,inople, 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 cx-
isfence 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 inevita-
BILE result of this must be an unexampled communi-
ty of feeling and interest among the nations of Chris
tendon, and q consequent desire for more Intimate
acquaintance with each others doings through tie
medium or the Newspaper Press. 1t seems hardly
possible that thousands should not henceiorth regu.
arly read their own journals, who have hitherto
been content with a Weekly issue which will nov
gence, always a vital element Of growth in wisdom,
success in business, or enjoyment in life, has now
become indispensable to all.
The NEW YORK TRIBUNE, now more than seven
teen years old which was the first journal in the
world that appeared regularly on an imperial eight
M 0Q cheat at 81 l0W y priaa q furn mantle aDJ vrh:ol
has attained the unparalleled aggregate of more
than 2O0. 600 subscriptions, respectfully solicits its
share of the new patronage which the Metropolitan
Press is hencetorth constrained, at a heavy weekly
cost, to deserve. It 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 no 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, prosperity
through the protection of American Industry BY
wisely discriminating duties on Imports-a1 who
favor National Progress through internal Develop
Raent and meiioration rather than by external aggres-
sion and extension AL who would rather have the
National resources devoted to the construction of q
Railroad to the Pacific than to the purchase or con-
quest of Mexico, Nicaragua or Cuba-all who would
retrench radically our present inordinate Federal ex.
penditures by abolishing or immensely reducing the
Army and Navy, and expanding the money thus
saved on works of beneficence which will endure to
bless our children-all who profoundly realize that
" RIGHTEOUSNESS exalteth a nation and that no
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 every
hopeful plan intended to diminish the sum of human
misery from dearth of employment or inadequate re
compense-every 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 proyi-
ded itself with a new and faster Press at a cost of
$50, 900, merely that some of our subscribers may
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 writer's chosen from among the best in the
couHtry, VT 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, thes, to those who believe that an in
creased circulation of IaE TRIRuNf you'd conduce

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 cur editions, and shall be particularly grateful to
those who may send us such names from post offices
at winch we nave now no SUBSCRIBERS. Whatever
additions msy thus be made to our circulation shall
be paralleled by increased efforts and expenditures
to mike our issues more valuable and useful than
they have hitherto been.
