THE NEW YORK TRIBUNE.

THE TRTBUSE-now more than eighteen years
old, and having over Two Hundred Thousand |
subscribers, or constant purchasers, diffused
through every State and Territory of our U nj |
on-wil continue in essence what it has been |
the earnest champion of Liberty, Progress, !
and of whatever will conduce to our national
growth in Virtue, Industry, knowledge, and
Prosperity. 1t will continue to urge the eman-
cpation not only of the Black laborer from chat
telism and legal impotence, but of the White
likewise from Land Monopoly, Intemperance,
| Ignorance, and that dependence on remote Mar
kets which panlyzes exertion by denying to toll
| any adequate and morally certain reward. Be
ieving that the chief evil of time is the in
ordinate multiplication and disproportion of
Non-Producers, it will continue to war against
| whatever tends to degrade Manual Labor or de-
| prive it of its Just and full recompense. 1t |
will infexibly commend the policy of winning
hither from Europe the Useful Arts and, wher.
ever they may be needed, the Artizans as well
! for whose products our country is now running
reckless,Y into debt, while our laborers roam in
| fruitess quest of employment, leaving their
children in want of breau, though the farmer is
too often compelled to sell his crops at made
| quate prices. In short, while battling against
| llllbusterlsm and every other manifestation of
that evil spirit which seeks, through the spolia-
| ton of other countries that aggra ndizement
which is to be truly attained on.y through the
due Development and cultivation of our inter
nal resources, it will urgently advocate a more
| effectively discriminating Tariff, the Freedom
of the Public Lands, the construction of Rail-
road from the navigable waters of the Missis-
sippi to those of the Pacific, and every other
measure which seems to us calculated to en-
hance the dignity or the recompense of Labor,
and promote the well being of Mankind
! The "irrepressible conflict between Dark
ness and Light, Inertia and Progress Slavery
and Freedom, moves steadily onward. Isolated
acts of folly and madness may for the moment
giqe seeming advantage to Wrong but God
still reigns, and the Ages are true to Humanity
and Right. The year 1860 must witness me.
morable conflict between these irreconcilable
antagonists. The question:" Shall Human
Slavery be further strengthened and diffused by
the power and under the flag of the Federal
Union p is now to receive momentous if not
o conclusive answer. Land for the Landless,
versus Negroes for the Negroless'' is the battle

immediate issue, we cannot doubt that the ulti-

dictates of impartial Philanthropy and the inal-

Having made arrangements for the fuller and
more graphic reports of the doings of Congress,
and of whatever else Transporting at the Federal
Metropolis shall seem worthy of public regard,
and having extended both our Foreign and Do
mestic Correspondence, and strengthened our
Editorial staff, We believe THE TRIBUNE may
safely challenge comparison with any rival,
whether as an exponent of principles or as
liable mirror of the passing world. We pur-
pose not to be surpassed nor anticipated in the
collection presentation of intelligence, though
We eschew The reputation for enterprise which
is acquired by bribing messengers and clerks in

cation Of treaties and official documents. We
prize curacy of statement quite as highly as
promptitude, but rndeavor not to sacrifice the
latter while securing the former. Essentially,
The TRIBUNE will be what it has been, while
We shall constantly study to improve its every
