THE NBW-EORK TRIBUNE.

NEW VOLUME. On the seventh of Septem-
Der, 1851, THE HEW-R0RK WEEKLY TRIB-
UNE commenced the twenty y-frst year Of It's eris-
tence; THE;DAILY TRIBUNE being some months
older and the SEMI-WEEKLY TRIBUNE some
what younger For more than twenty years this
journal has labored in what its conductors have felt
to be the cause of Humanity, Justice and Free
dom, endeavoring to meliorate the condition of the
oppressed and unfortunate, TO honor and en-
courage useful exertion IN whatever sphere and, to
promote by all means the moral, intellectual and
material advancement OF our country. Ii has
aimed to be right rather than popular, and to es-
psuse and commend to-day the truth that Others
may not be willing to ACCEPT till tomorrow In
pursuing th is course mistakes have doubtless been
made and faults committed but. having in all
things melted our readers to think and Judge for
themselves rather than adopt bIndly our own or
others conclusions, we believe may fairly claim
for this Journal the credit of having qualified its
readers TO detect and expose even its own errors.
To develop the minds OF the young by the most
general, thorough and practical Education, and 10
encourage and stimulate Productive industry
through free grants of Public Lands to actual set
tiers and cultivators as also through the protec-
ton of immature or peculiarly exposed branches
from too powerful foreign competitor, an1 smnng
the aims to which this journal has adhered throush
good and evil report, and which it steadfastly com
mends TO American patriotism and philanthropy
AS to the Civil War now devastating our eoun-
try we hold Il to have originated In a Rebellion
more. Wanton, wicked, inexcusable, than was ever
before knoWn-a Rebellion In the interests of the
few against the many--a Rebellion designed to
raise higher the walls Of caste and tighten the
chains Of oppression. Having done all we coud
without surrender of vital principles 10 avoid this
War; And witnessed the forbearance rneakness and
long suffering with which the Federal Government
sought TO avert its horrors We hold 1t our clear
uuty Wlth that OF every other Citizen TO stand by
the natlon and its fairly chosen rulers and to sec
ono with all our energies their efforts to uphold the
Unlon, the Constitution, and the SUPREMACY of |
the Laws. And, though the Rebellion has become. !
through usurpatlon, deception, terrorism and
spollauon, tearfuiiy strong, We believe the Ameri.
can hepuhlic lar stronger, and that the unani1ous
earnest efforts Of loyal hearts and hands will nsure
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 1
American People have clothed with authority
holding unity of purpose and OF action ;ndisney'
sable In so grave an emergency.
In crisis like the pFesC MT, our columns must he
largely engrossed with the current history of the
war for the Union, and with calculations of ia
more striking Incidents. We shall not however |
remit that attention TO Literature to Foreign AZ
ialTs, to Agricultural Progress, TO Crops, MARKETS.
&c, &c-, which has already, we trust won for
fHE Iklb UNE an honorable position among its |
cotenporaries. Our main object is snd shall he 10
produce comprehensive newspaper from which a
careful reader may gain vivid and faithful histo !
~ OF the times, nOt merely il the domaine of Ac
ton but IN that OF Opinion also. as our fscil |
tSS iOI acquiring information increase with I
We trust that an improvement in the contents OF
our Journal is perceptible, and that in the variety
and iniaess OF intelligence afforded we may stf
nope 70 sneEe each day critic On the last In
this hope, We solicit continuance of the generous
measure Of patronage hitherto accorded 10 oQr
ournal.
