Prominently journal of News and Literature,
The Tribune has political convictions which
are we'll characterized by the single word Re-
PUBLICAN 1t is Republican in Its hearty ad.
hesion to the great truth that "God has made
of one blood all nations of men"-Republican
in its assertion of the equal and inalienable
rights of all men to ''life, liberty and the pur-
suit of happiness" s"-Repubican in its stead
fast, earnest, defiant hostility to every scheme
and effort OF the slave power, from the Annex
alton of Texas to the great Rebellion,to to grasp
the Empire of the New World and WELD the
resources of our country for its aggrandize-
ment-Republican in its antagonism to the
aristocrats and despots of the Old World, who
fondly hail in the perils and calamities thrust
upon US by their American counterpart the
overthrow and ruin Of the Model Republic
Republican in its hope and trust, its faith and
effort, that this atrocious Rebellion must re-
suit in the signal overthrow of its plotters, ,and
the firm establishment of equal rights and
equal laws throughout the whole extent of our
country, wherein Liberty and Union shall
indeed ''be one and iuseparable" henceforth
and forever
The TRIBUNE devotes attention in calmer
times, and to some extent in these, to Educa-
ton, Temperance, Agriculture, Inventions,
and whatever else may minister to the spiri-
tual and material progress and well being of
mankind but for the present its energies and
its columns are mainly devoted to the invigor-
alton and success of the War for the Union.
Its special correspondents accompany every
considerable army and report every important
incident of that great struggle which we trust
is soon to result in the signal and conclusive
triumph of the National arms and in the res
toration of Peace and Thrift to our distracted
and bleeding country. We believe that no
otherwise can a fuller or more accurate view
of the progress aud character of this momen-
tous conflict be obtained than through the
regular perusal of our columns. And we ear
nestly solicit the cooperation of all friends of
the National eause, which we regard and up
hold as that of Universal Humanity, to aid US
in extending its circulation.
