her. 1861, THE NBW-RORK WEEKLY TRIB-
UNE commenced tho twenty first year Of IT'S exis-
tepce: THE DAILY TRIBUNE being some months
older and the SENI-WEEKLY TRIBUNE some
what youuger For more than twenty years, this
journal has labored 10 what It's conductors have felt
70 he the cause OF Humanity, Justice aud Free
dom, ende3vorng to meliOrate Tire condition of the
oppressea and unfortunate, is honor snd en-
courage useful exertion in whatever sphere, and to
promote by all means tho moral, intellectual and
material advancement Of our country II has
aimed to be right rather than popular, and to es-
poHse and commend to-day the truth that other S
may not be willing to ACCEPT till tomorrow In
pursuing this course. mistakes have doubtless been
made and faults committed bnt, having in all
things melted our readers to think and judge for
themselves rather than adopt blindly our own or
Others conclusions. believe may fairly claim
for this Journal the credit of having qua fed its
readers to detect 9nd expose even it's own errors.
To develop the minds OF the young by the most
enerai, tho Ough and practical Education. and TO
encourage and stimulate Productive industry,
through free grants of Public Lands to actual set
tiers and eutivators, as also through the protee-
ton Of immature or peculiarly exposed branches
from too powerful foreign competitor, and among
he aims to which this journal has adhered through
good and evil report, and which it stesdastly com-
meuds to American patriotism aud philanthropy.
As 20 the Civil War now devastating our coun-
try, We hold it to have originated in a Rebellion
more want on, wicked, inexeusabe, than was ever
aetore kn0wn--a Rebellion in the interests of the
few against the many--a Rebellion designed to
raise higher the walls Of caste aud tighten the.
chains Of oppression Having done al we could
withou. surrender Of vital principles to avoid this
War. and witnessed the forbearance, meekness and
long suffering with which the Federal Government
sought to avert its horrors, we hold it our clear
duty, with that Of every other citizen 10 stand by
The nation and its fairly chosen rulers, and TO sec
ond with all cur energies their efforts uphold the
Union, the Constitution, and the supremacy of
the Laws And, though the Rebellion has become,
through usurpaton, deception, terrorism, and
spOilatiOB, fearfuy strong, we believe the ueri-
can RePuRlc far stronger, and that the unAn inous
earnest efforts OF loyal hearts ID 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 indispen-
sable in grave an emergency.
la crisis Ike the present, 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 AT
fairs, to gricutural Progress, to Crops, Markets,
&c., &c., which has already, we trust, Won for
THE TRIBUNE an honorable position among its
contemporaries. Our main object is and shall be to
produce comprehensive newspaper from which
careful reader may gain vivid and faithful hsto-
~ Of the times, not merely in the domaine Of Ac-
ton but in that OF Opinion also. AS our facili-
ties for cquring information increase with years,
our journal is perceptbe, and that, in the variety
and fitness OF intelligence afforded, we may still
hope to ''make EACH day critic on the last" In
this hope: we solicit continuance of the generous
measure of patronage hitherto accorded TO our
journal.
