IL Telegraph Cable masks new era in the
history of Human Progress. Henceforth, Eu-
rope, Western Asia, and Northern Africa lie
within an hours distance from our shores, and
the battle which decides the fate of kingdom.
/ the capture of V Jenna OF Gibraltar, the fall
of dynasty, the triumph of a usurpation, the
birth of an heirto royalty, the death of Mo
holas or Wellington, in any country which
| touches the Mediterranean, the Euxine, the
Black Sea or the German Ocean, will be pub
lished III New York the next morning, if not
on the very day of its occurrence In mo-
ment, as it were, we have been thrown into the
immediate intellectual neighboihood of the
whole civilized and a large portion of the semi
barbarous world The rise and fall of stocks
in London or Paris will henceforth bereported
| from day to day in the journals of our seaboari
cities. The boldest operators in Wall street
will refuse to buy or 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 30 be-
| fore ours can begin. A revolution in Paris, au
| importont vote in Parliament an insurrection
in Italy fire in Constantinople, will be dis
cussed around the breakfast tables of New York
ew hours after its occurrence A mighty
tho Oh silent Transformation in 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 mites
| be an unexampled community ofEfeeling and
! interest among the nations of Christendom, and
| a consequent desire for more intimate ac--
quaintance with each others doings through'
| the medium of the n ewspaper Press. 1t seems
| hardly possible that thousands should not
henceforth read their own journals, who have
hitherto been content with an occasional glance
at those taken by their neighbors; while many
| who have hitherto been content with Weekly
| issue will now require a Semi w eekly or
Daily. In short, Intelligence, always a vital
element of growth in wisdom, success in bust
ness, or enjoyment in life, has now become
indispensable to all. 3
The NEW YORK TRIBUNE, now
more than seventeen years old, which was the
fist journal in the world that appeared regu-
Iarly oil an imperial eight sheet at SO low a
price as two cents and which has attained the
Unparalleled aggregate of more than 200 600
subscriptions, respectfully solicits its share of
the new patronage which the Metropolitan
Press is henceforth constrained, at a heavy
weekly cost, to deserve. 1t asks especially the
patronage and active favor of Republicans-et
those who hate all forms of oppression, and
desire that every rational being shall be free to
employ bis faculties in such innocent manner
as he shall deem best--of thosa who would
xtend 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 melioration
rather than by external aggression and extern
sion-all who would rather have the National
resources devoted to the construction of rail-
road TO the ac!fic than to the purchase OF con-
quest of Mexico, Nicarauga or Cuba--al1 who
would retrench radically our present inordi-
nate Federal expenditures by abolishing or
immensely reducing the Army and Navy. and
expanding the money thus saved oa works OF
beneficence which will endure to bless oul
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
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
ed TO diminish the sum of human misery from,
dearth of employment OF inadequate recon-
pense--every scheme especially that seeks to
help the unfortunate by enabling them and
t. aching 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 $50 600, merely that some of our
subscribers may receive their papers mail
earlier than they otherwise might do. Viii,
correspondents at the most important points
throughout the civilized world, and a staff al
writer's chosen from among the best in the
country we believe that even those who dis
like the politics of our sheet concede to il frank
ness in avowing its convictions and ability ia
maintaining them. We appeal, then, to those
who believe that an increased circulation of
The Tribune would conduce to the political,
intellectual and moral we'll being of the Repub-
lie, to aid us in effecting such increase. AS
we employ no travelling sole tors of subscrp-
tons, we ask our present patrons in every To-
calitv to speak to their neighbors and friends
| in our behelf; we shall gladly receive from any
friend lists of those who would receive and
read a 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 efforts and
/ expenditures to make our issues more valuable
and useful than they have hitherto been.
