| II seems hardly possible that thousands should
not henceforth regularly read their own journals,
who have hitherto been content with an occa-
sonal glance at those taken by their neigh bors
while many who have hitherto been content
with weekly issue will now require o Semi
Weekly or Daily. In short, Intelligence, al
ways vital element of growth in wisdom, sue
cess in business, or enjoyment 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 regularly on
an imperial eightpage sheet, at so low a price
as two cents, and which has attained the I'M
| paralleled aggregate of more than 200 900 sub.
scriptions, respectfully solicits its share of the
new patronage which the Metropolitan Press is
henceferth 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
rational being shall be free 10 employ his facui-
ties 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 Ma
tonal thrift, plenty, prosperity, through the

discriminating duties on imports--all who ia

| aggression and eXtension-all who would ra-
ther have the National resources devoted to the
construction of a Railroad to the Pacific rather
/ than to the purchase or conquest of Mexico,
/ Nicaragua or Cuba--all who would retrench
radically our present inordinate Federal expen-
| ditures by abolishing or immensely reducing the
Army and Navy. and expanding the money
thus saved on works of benefcence which will
endure to bless our children-all who profound

to any person or community from acquisitions
or success achieved by means which contravene

from dearth of employment or inadequate rec

help the unfortunate by enabling and teaching
them to help teemselves--must command our
earnest sympathy and cooperation.
Within the present year, The TRIBUNE has
provided itself with new and faster press, at
at cost OF $50 600, merely that some of our sub
] scribers may receive their papers mail earlier
than they otherwise might do With cores
pondents at the most important points through
out the civilized world, and 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 1t frankness in ayowing
its convictions and ability in maintaining them
! We appeal, then, to those who believe that an
increased circulation of THE TRIBUNE would
conduce to the political, intellectual and moral
well-beng OF the Republic, to aid us in effect
! ing such increase. As we employ no travelling
solicitors of subscriptions, we ask our present
patrons in every locality to speak to their neigh
bors and friends in our behalf; we shall gladly
receive from any friend lists Of those who would
receive and read La 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 paralleled by increased ef-
forts and expenditures to make our issues more
valuable and useful than they have hitherto
been.
