a few hours after its occurrence. A mighty
though silent transformation in the conditions

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 an unexampled community OF feeling and
interest among the nations of Christendom, and
consequent desire for more intimate ac-

The NEW YORK TRIBUNE, now
more than seventeen years old, which was the
first journal in the world that appeared regu-
larlv OH an imperial eight sheet at 50 low Il
price as two cents, and which has attained the
Unparalleled aggregate of more than 100000
subscriptions, respectfully solicits It's share OF
the new patronage which the Metropolitan
Press is hcnceforth constrained, at a heavy
weekly cost. to deserve. 1t asks especially the
patronage and active favor of Republicans-ef
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 wsuld
extend Liberty and limit Slavery-but it far
ther appeals likewise to all who look and labor
for the return of n ational thrift, plenty, pros
peritv, through the Protection of American
Industry by wisely discriminating duties or
Imports-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 thu construction OF ? rail-
road 10 the Pacific than to thu purchase or con-
quest of Mexico, Nicarauga or Cuba-all who
would retrcnch radically our present inerdi-
nate Federal expenditures by abolishing OF
immensely reducing the Army and Navy. and
expcnding the money thus saved Oh works OF
beneficencc which viii endure to bless oar
children--;u who profoundly realize that
=" Righteousness cxalteth Il 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

help the unfortunate by enabling them and

: Within the present year, THE TRIBUNE
has provided itself with new and faster Press
at a cost of $4,000, merely that some of )uI
subscribers may receive their papers mad
2 earlier than they otherwise might do. With
l correspondents at the most important points
throughout the civilized world, and staff Of
writer's chosen from among the best in the
| country, we believe that even those who dis
like the politics of our sheet conccde to il frank
ness in ayowing its convictions and ability ia
maintaining them. We appeal. then, to those
who believe that an increased circulation OF

intellectual and moral well-being of the Repub-
lie, TO aid us in effecting such increase. AS
: we employ no travelling sole tors of sabscrip-
/, lions, ask our present patrons in every To-
