HNHE successful laying of the trans Atlantle
Il Telegraph Gable marks new era In the
history of Human Progress. Henceforth, En-
rope, 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 V Jenna or Gibraltar, the fall
of dynasty. the triumph of usurpation, the
birth of an heir TO royalty, the death OF a n ic-
holas or Wellington, in any country which
touches the Mediterranean. the Euxlne, The
Black Sea or the German Ocean, VIII be pub
lished in New York the next morning, If not
on the very day of its occurrence. In mo-
ment, as it were, we have been tlrswn into the
immediate Intellectual neighborhood of the
whole civilized and large portion of the semi
barbarons world. The rise and fall of stocks
in London or Paris will henceforth be reported
from day TO day in the journals OF our seaboard
cities. The boldest operators in Wall street
will refuse to buy sell until they have read
the quotations of that days business on the
ROYAL Exchange and at the Bourse, whose
Transactions will have closed an hour or so be-
fore ours can begin. A revolution in Paris, ain
inportont vote in Parliament, an instruction
in Italy, a fire in Constantinople, viii be dis
cussed around the breakfast tables of New York
few hours after lis occurrence. a mighty
though silent transformation i'll 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 an uneXampled community of feeling and
interest among the nations of Christendom and
a consequent desire for a more intimate ac-
quaintance with each others doings through
the medium ofthe Newspaper Press. 1t seems
haI div possible that thousands should not
heaceforth read their own journals, who have
hitherto been content with an occasional glance
at those taken by their neighhors; while many
who have hitherto been content with a Weekly
issue viii now require a Semi Weekly or
Daily. In short, Intelligence, always vital
element of growth in wisdom. success in bust
ness, or enjoyment in life, has now become
! indispensable to all.
THE NEW YORK TRIBUNE, new
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 q
| price as two cents, and which has attained the
| Unparalleled aggregate Of more than 100000
| subscriptions respectfully solcits its share of
tire new patronage which the Metropolitan
| Press is henceforth constrained. at heavy
| weekly cost, 10 deserve. 1t asks especially the
| patronage and active favor of Repu blicans-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 be shall deem best-Of those who would
| extend Liberty and limit Slavery-but it fur
ther appeals likewise to all who look and labor
for the return of n ational thrift, plenty, pros
| pcrity, through the Protection of American
Industry by wisely discriminating duties on
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 the construction of rail-
road 10 the Pacific than to the purchase or con-
quest of Mexico, Nicarauga or Cuba-all who
would Tctrcnch radically our present inordi
nate Federal expenditures by abOlishing or
immensely reducing the Army and Navy, and
expanding the money thus saved on works OF
benefccnce which viii endure to bless osr
children-all who profoundly realize that
" Righteousness eXalteth a nation" and that
no real advantage can ever accrue to any per-
SON or community from acquisitions or success
SEES achieved by means which contrarene the
laws of Eternal Right The free allotment of
limited portions Of the Public Lands to Actual
| SettleTstl!ereon, and every hopeful plan intend
ed to diminish the cum of human misery from
dearth of employment or inadequate recem-
pensc-every scheme especially that seeks TO
help the unfortunate by enabling them and
TEACHING them to help themselves must COM
mand our earnest sympathy and cooperation.
Within the present year, THE TRIBUNE
has provided itself with new and faster Press
at cost OF $4,000, merely that some of our
| subscribers may receive their papers mail
earlier than they otherwise might dc. With
correspondents at the most important points
throughout the civilized world, and a staff of
writers chosen from among the best in the
country,w believe that even those who dis
like the politics of our sheet concede to il frank
ness in ayowing its convictions and ability in
maintaining Them. We appeal, them to those
| who believe that an increased circulation OF
The Tribune would conduce to the political
intellectual and moral ll-being of the Repub-
lie, to aid Us in eifecting such increase. AS
VIC employ no travelling sole tors of subscrip-
tons, we ask our present Patrons in every le-
eality to speak TO their neighbors and friends
in our beheif; we shall gladly receive from any
friend lists of those who would receive and
| read n specimen copy Of one of our editions,
and shall be particularly grateful TO those who
| may send lis 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 more valuable
and useful than they have hitherto been.
| THE TRIBUNE is printed on large i'm
