As 70 the Civil War now devastating our coun-
try, we hold 1t TO have originated Ia Rebellion
more wanton, wicked, mexcusatle than was ever
5tfore kuown--a Rebellion in the Interests of he
few against the mauy--a Rebellion DESIGNED TO
raise higher the walls Of caste and tighten the
chains OF oppression. Having done al we could
without surrender Of vital principles 10 avoid this
War, and witnessed the forbearance, meekness, and
long suffering with which the Federal Government
sought TO avert its horrors, hold il our clear
duty, with that of every other citizen 10 stand by
the nation and lis fairly chosen rulers and to sec
ond with all our energies their efforts to uphold the
Union, the Consututioh, and the supremacy of
the Laws. And, though the Rebellion has become,
through usurpation, deceptoB, terrorism and
spoIlation, fearfuy strong, believe the Ameri-
can Repuelic tar stronger, and that the unanimous
earnest efforts of loyal hearts and hands will insure
its overthrow. But on all questions affecting the
objects, the scope, and duration of this most ex
traordinary contest, we defer to those whom the
American People have clothed with authority
holding unity OF purpose and Of action ;niispen-
sable In so grave emergency
In crisis like the preSC Mt, our columns must be
largely engroSsed with the current history Of The
War for the Union, and with calculations of its
n.ore striking incidents. We shall not however
remit that attention to Literature, to Foreign Al
fairs, to Agricultural Progress to Crops Markets.
&c., &c, which has already, we trust, Won for
THE TRIBUNE an honorable position among It's
cotempoTaries. Our main object is aud shall be to
produce comprehensive newspaper from which a
careful reader may gain a vivid and faithful histo-
ry 81 the times, not merely in the domaine Of Ac-
ton but IN that OF Opinion also. As our facih-
we trust that an Improvement in the contents OF
journal is perceptible and that in the variety
and fulaess Of intelligence afforded, we may still
hope to ''maKe each day a critic on the last.n In
this hope, we solicit continuance Of the generous
measure Of patronage hitherto accorded to our
journal.
