THE NBW-YORk TRIBUNE.

!
NEW VOLUME. On the seventh soi Septem-
her, 1861, THE HEW-RORK WEEKLY TRIB-
UNE commenced the twenty first year of its exis-
tence HE DAILY TRIBUNE being some months
older and the SEAI-WEEKLY TRIBUNE some
what younger For more than twenty years, this
journal has abored ID whaI its conductors have felt
10 be the cause Of Humanity, Justice aud Free
dom, endesvering to meiorate the condition OF the
oppTessea and unfortunats, 10 honor and en-
courske useful e1eriinB whatever sphere, and to
| promote by all means the moral, intellectual and
material advancement of country. Id has
aimed to be right rather than popular, and TO
peuse aud commend to-day the truth that Others
saay not b. willing to ACCEPT till tomorrow. La
pursuing this COURSE mistakes have doubtless been
made aud faults committed; but, having IN all
things melted our readers to think and Judge for
themselves rather than adopt blindly our own or
others conclusions, We believe may fairly claiD
for this journal the credit Of having qualified its
readers to detect and expose even its own errors.
70 develop the ainds Of tbe young by the most
general thorough and practical Education, and TO
encourage and stimulate Productive industry,
through free ersntg OF Public Lands to actual set
tiers and cuitiyators, also through the protee-
ton Of immature or peculiarly exposed branches
IRON too powerful foreign competition, and among
the aims Go which this Journal has adhered through
good and evil report, and which it steadfaStly CON-
mends to American patriotism and philanthropy.
As to the Civil War nov devastating our coun-
try. we hold it to have originated in . Rebellion
more wsni0n, wicked, insxcusable than was
before knoWn-a Rebellion in the interests Of he
few against the many--a Rebellion designed to
raise higher the walls Of caste and tighten the
chains Of oppression. Having done al could
without surrender Of vital principles 10 avoid ths
War, and Witnessed the forbe&rance, meekness, sRd
long suffering with which the Federal Government
sought 10 avert its horrors, hold it our clear
duty with that OF every other citizen 10 stand by
the nauon and it's fairly chosen rulers, and to sec
ond with al oar energies their efforts uphold the
Union, the Constitution, and the supremacy Of
the Laws. And, though the Rebellion has become
through usurpstion, deception, terrorism, and
spolation, fearfully strong, believe the AmeTi-
Republic lar stronger, aud that the Unanimous,
earnest eorsS of loyal hearts AID hands will insure
its overthrow. But on ali questions affecting the
objects, the scope, aud duration of this moat ex
traordinary contest, We defer to those Whon the
American People have clothed with authority,
holding unity OF purpose and Of action indispen-
sable in grave emergency.
Ia crisis like the presG MT our columns must be
largely engrosssd with the current history ef the
" AT Tor the Union, and with eiuciiatioDs of IFS
more striking incidents. We shall not. however
remit that attention 20 Literature, to Foreign At
fairs, to Agricultural Progress 30 Crops, Markets,
&c., &e., which Aas already, We trust. won for
THE TRIBUNE an honorable position among its
contemporaries. Oar main object is and shall be to
produce comprehensive newspaper from which
careful reader may gam VIVID and faithful bisto-
rs OF the tines MOI merely 10 the domaine Of Ac-
ton but ia that OF Opinion also. AS our facil-
Tics iOI Au'ofuudNiOH increase with
we trust that Improvement in the contents Of
our journal is perceptble, and that in the variety
and iuiaess OF intelligence Afforded, we nav sill
hope to @maKe each day critic on the last" In
this hope, solicit continuance OF the generous
| measure Of patronage hitherto accorded 10 our
journal.
