THE NEW YORK TRIBUNE.
NEW VOLUME.

On the seventh of September, 1861, TIE
NETWORK WEEKLY TRIBUNE COM
menced the twenty first wear OF its existence
THE DAILY TRIBTNE being some months
older, and THE SEMI WEEKLY 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, endcavoring 10 meliorate
the condition of the oppressed and unfortunate,
to honor and encourage useful excrtion in what
ever sphere, and, to promote by AL means, the
moral, intellectual aud material advancement
of our country. 1t has aimed TO be right rath.
CT than popular, and To- espousc 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 an d
faults committed but, having in all things
melted our readers to think and Judge for them
selves rather than adopt blndly our own or
others conclusions, We believe we may fairly
claim for this journal the credit of having
qualified its readers to detect and expose even
It's own errors. To develop the minds of the
young by the most general, thorough and prac
teal Education, and TO en- courage and stimulate
Productive Industry. through free grants of
Public Lands to actual settlers and eultivators
rs also through the protection of immature or
peculiarly exposed branches from too powerful
foreign competition. are among the aims 10
which this Journal has adhered through good
and evil report. and which il stcadfastly com.

~.
AS to the Civil War now devastating our
country, we bold it To have originated in Re
bellon more 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 to avoid this War. and witnessed the
torbearancc, mcakncss, aud 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 rulers, and to second with
all our energies their efforts to NJ hold the Union
the Constitution, and the supremacy of the
Laws. And, though the rebellion has become
through usurpation, deception, terrorism, and
spohation, feariully 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 all
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 fluctuations OF
Its more striking incidents, We shall not how
ever, remit that attention to Literature, to For.

paper, from which a careful reader may CLEAN a
vivid and faithful history of the times. not
merely in the domain of Action but in that Of
Opinion also. As cur facilities for acquiring
information increase with years, we trust that
an improvement in thu contents of our journal
is pcrceptible, and that in the variety aud full
ness 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.
