THE new YORK DAY-B00K,
For 1864.
Devoted to White Mems Liberties, State
Rights, and Federal Union.

After suppression of two years, caused by its
arbitrary exclusion from the mails, during which
time the publishers have issued another paper,
(The Caucasan) The New York Weekly Day
Book again makes its appearance, in its old form
as double sheet, with forty.eight columns of
reading matter. In all respects, whether for
Markets, News, Literary or Agrcu ltura infor-
nation, it intends not to be inferior to any similar
journal. AS to its political department, it claims
to grapple boldly with the real question before
the American People. and to present the only
philosophy of it which can resist the sweeping
march of Abolitonism.
To all who believe the Day.Book wi i'll be nstru-
mental in pulling the scales from the eyes of any
now blinded by its false teachings. and thus aid
in restoring fraternity and Re. Union we appeal
for aid in extending its circulation. The enlarg
ed sheet nearly doubles our expenses. The price
is as low as can possibly be afforded. Shall we
not therefore, next year, have $4,000 or 100 900
subscribers, instead of 10000? We ask each
friend of true liberty to do what his conscience
tells him he ought to do. and the result will, we
are sure, be satisfactory to US Having for seve-
raj years published the only Democratic daily
paper in New York that supported itself indie
pendent OF all party factions, and being thus in
dependent STILL and meaning to remain so, we
believe The DayBook will commend itself to the
confidence and support of the people as faithful
and impartial to all interests, and as true ex-
VI
the People for decision. The country stands in
pressing want Of such Journal and those fami-
liar with the principles we have always sustained
will need no assurance that The Day Book will
in the future, as in the past never swcrve, either
through fear or favor from defense of the rights
of the People, and steady and relentless oppo
sition to every form of tyranny, and more especi
ally to that peculiar phase of it which under the
pretcnse of comforting an impossible freedom on
negroes, seeks to rvit the chains of real slavery
upon white men,
Owing to the great advance in all the materials
used in printing we are compelled to slightly in
crease our rates. We believe our subscribers
prefer good paper, perfect in all its departments
and will cheertully meet the slight advance which
the unusual expansion of the currency neces-
states.

FEDERAL SPY TO BE SHOT.

A letter Fl on. Fort Gaines, in
Mobile Harbor, gives the follow
ing account of the centence hav-
Ing been passed upon a spy:
lie is a Captain of the 23d New
York Regiment, come through
our lines ut Richmond, Va, and
has been spying ever since. IIc
has visited Charleston, Savannah,
Chattanooga and Atlanta, and also
nearly every prominent point in
the Confederacy IIis last visit
was to Mobile, where his money
gave out, and he then endeavored
te procure o position as n substi.
tute of one of the companies sta.
ticnee at Fort Gaines, but the
Colonel refused to accept him,
believing him to be above the
subscription age; lie then went
over to Fort Morgan, where he
was taken as q substitute. About
two weeks after he left his post and
started for the Yankees. Pursuit
was Immediately made, and our
men succeeded in capturing him in
about Elk miles from the fort.
Upon his persons was found a plan
Of Fort Gaines and Morgan, pivl
ing the strength of Tie forts and
the number and size Of the guns
He was court. martialed and SEN
fenced to death. The sentences
was approved by the President
and he will be shot on the 28th
inst. After his capture he con.
fesscd being q spy, and gave tht
number Of his regiment. ,

Lookine at all that has taken

Looking at all that has taken
place relative to the late contest in
Ohio, we ore not led to despair
Every free country will always
have, and the interests of society
require tbst they should have two
parties ; one to watch and check
the other. 4
As no reliable statement Of elec-
ton statistics has reached us, we
can only say, that in some counties
the Democratic party have gained
ground; while, as it would appear,
the Republican and Abolition par
ty have gained more largely, and
thus have carriedthe day, and wor
the political battle; though we arc
inclined to believe that BRoUaH'i
majority will turn out to be smaller
than OF first reported. ~,

WAR NEWS.

What to say to our readers, about the
news purporting to come direct from the
fields Of battle, we know not.
1t is not unlikely that the siege Of Char!es'
ton will be raised, and the fleet withdrawn;
but of the true state Of things at Charleston,
we have no reliable account up to this
(rhutsday) night.
Rosecrans has been Withdrawn, and Gen.
eral Grant has taken the command. Bragg

an approaching winter may compel Cur

oRae more III deadly combat,
Tho CONSUMPTION will take place through
out Ohio, on Monday next, and the Presi.

Should this number not be raised by the 9Th
