THE NEW YORK TRIBUNE-NEw Vol
uME Tin the 7th of Sept. The New York
Weekly Tribune commenced the 2lst year of
its existence The Daily Tribune being some
months older aud The Semi Weekly Tribune
somewhat younger. For more than 20 years,
this journal has labored in what its conductor
have felt TO be the cause of humanity Justice,
aud Freedom, endeavoring to meliorate the con-
dition of the oppressed and unfortunate, to hon
or aud encourage useful exerliun in whatever
sphere, aud 10 promote by all means, the moral
intellectual aud material advancement of our
patton. Il has aimed 10 be right rather than
popular and to espouse and commend to-day
the truth that others may not be willing to ac-
cept till Tomorrow. In pursuing this course,
mistakes have doubtless been made and faults
committed [; but, having in all things iuCited
our readers to think and Judge for themselves
rather than adopt blindly our own or others
conclusions we believe we may fairly claim for
this journal the credit of having qualified it's
readers to detect aud expose even its own err
rors To develop the minds of the young by
the most general, thorough aud pract cal edu
cation and TO encourage and stimulate Produc-
! tive Industry, through free grants Of public
! lands to actual settlers and cutivators of the
soil, as also through the protection of imma-
ture oil. peculiarly exposed branches from too
powerful foreign competition, are among the
aims to which this journal has adhered through
good aud evil report, and which it steadIasty

As to the civil war now devastating the coun-
try, we hold it 10 have originated in rebellion
more Wanlon, wicked, inexcusable, than was ev.
er before known--a rebellion in the interest OF
the few sgainst the many II rebellion designed
to raise higher the walls Of caste aud tighten the
chains of oppression. Having done all we
could without u surrender OF vital principle 70
avoid this war, aud witnessed the forbearance,
meekness and long-suferiug with which the fed
eraI government sought 10 avert its horrors, we
bold it our clear duty, with that Of every other
citizen, to stand by the nation and its fairly
chosen rulers. and to secoud with all our ener
gies their efforts to uphold the Union, the Con.
stitation. and the supremacy OF Law. Aud
though the rebellion has become, through usur-
patton. deception, terrorism aud spoliston fear
fully strong, we believe the A merican republic
far stronger and that the unanimous earnest
efforts OF loyal hearts aud hands will insure its
overthrow. But on all questions affecting the
objects, The scope, and duration Of this most ex
traordinuIy contest, we defer 10 those whom the
American people have clothed with authority
J holding unity Of purpose and Of action indiSpen
siblo in SO grave All emergency. rs<.- l.F
In a crisis like the present, our columns mus
be largely engrossed with the current history o
the war for the Union, and the calculations o
its more striking incidents. We shall not how
ever, remit that attention to Literature, TO For
eign Affairs 10 Agricultural Progress, To Crops
' Markets, &c &C. which has already we trust
/ won for The Tribune an honorable position a
moug lis eotemporaries. Our main object
aud shall be to produce a CON ireheDsiye news
paper, from which careful reader may CLEAN
vivid aud faithful history Of the times, not mere
ly 10 the domain Of Action. but 10 that Of Opin
ion also. As our facilities for acquiring inioI
matioh increase with years, we trust that an I'M
prOvement in the contents OF our paper is per
eeptible, and that, 10 the variety aud fulness o
intelligence afforded, we may still hope b
make each day critic on the last" In thi
hope, we solicit q continuance Of the generOu
measure of patronage hitherto accorded to ou
journal.
