THE NEW YORK TRIBUNE
NEW VOLUME.

On the seventh of September, 1861, THE
NETWORK WEEKLY TRIBUNE COM
menced the twenty first year of its existence
THE DAILY TRIBTNE being some months
older, and THE SEMI-W EEKLY TRIBUNE
somewhat younger. For more than twenty
years, this journal has labored in what its con-
ductors have felt to be the cause of Humanity,
Justice and Freedom, endeavoring to meliorate
the condition of the oppressed and unfortunate,
to honor and encourage useful exertion In what
ever sphere, and, TO promote by oil means, the
moral, intellectual and material advancement
Of our country. 1t has aimed to be right rath.
er than popular, and to espouse and commend
to- day the truth that others may not be willing
TO accept till tomorrow. In pursuing this
course, mistakes have doubtless been made and
faults committed but. having in oil things
melted our readers to think and Judge for them
selves rather than adopt blindly our own or
others conclusions, We believe we may fairly
claim for this journal the credit of having
quail fed its readers TO detect and expose even
its own errors. To develop the minds of the
young by the most general thorough and prac
teal Education, and to encourage and stimulate
Productive Industry, through free grants of
Public Lands to actual settlers and cultivators,
rs also through the protection of immature or
peculiarly exposed branches from too powerful
foreign competition, are among the aims TO
which this journal has adhered through good
and evil report. and which it steadfastly COM
mends to American patriotism and philanthro-
py.
As to the Civil War now devastating our
country, we hold it 10 have originated in Re
bellionmore wanton, wicked, inexcusable. than
was ever before known--a rebellion in the in
terests of the few against the many-a Rebel
lion designed to raise higher the walls of caste
and tighten the chains Of oppression. Having
done all We could without surrender Of vital
principle 10 avoid this War and witnessed the
forbearance, Weakness. 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, to stand by the nation
and its fairly chosen rule..s, and to second win
al our energies their efforts to W hold the Union
the Constitution, and the supremacy of the
Laws. And, though the rebellion has become
through usurpation, deception terrorism, and
spohation, fearfully strong, We believe the
American Republic far stronger, and that the
unanimous, earnest efforts of loyal hearts and
hands will insure its overthrow. But on oil
questions affecting the objects the scope. the
duration, of this most extraordinary contest, we
defer to those whom the American People have
clothed with authority, holding unity Of pur-
pose and OF action indispensable in so grave an
emergency.
In crisis like the present, our columns must
be largely engroesed with the current history OF
the war for the Union. and with elucidatons OF
its more striking incidents. We shall not how
ever, remit that attention to Literature, to For.
eign Affairs. to Agricultural Progress, to Crops
Markets dc, &c, which has already, we trust
won for THE TRIBUNE an honorable position
among its cotemporares. Our main object is

paper, from which careful reader may CLEAN a
vivid and faithful history of the times. not
merely in the domain of Action but in that Of

information increase with years, we trust tina,
an improvement IN tho contents of our journal
is perceptible, and that. in the variety and full
ness of intelligence afforded. we may still hop,

hope, we solicit continuance of the generous
measure Of patronage hitherto accorded to ouI
