THE new YORK DAY-BO0K,
For 1864,
Devoted to White Mems Liberties, State
Rights, and Federal Union.

Alter suppression of two years, caused by its
arbitrary exclusion from the mails, during which
time the publishers have issued another paper
lThe Caucasian,) 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 Agricn ltural 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 resist the sweeping
march Of Abolitonism.
To all who believe the DayBook will be instru-
mental in pulling the scales from the eyes of any
now blinded by its false teachings, and thus aid
in restoring fraternity and Reunion, we appeal
for aid in extending its circulation. The enarg-
cd 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 Day Book will commend itself to the
confidence and support of the people as faithful
and impartial to all interests, and as q true ex-
ponent of all the great issues now pressing upon
the People for decision. The country stands in
pressing want Of such n 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 swerye, either
through fear or favor, from defense of the lights
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 rivit 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 rates We believe our subscribers
prefer good paper, perfect in all its departments,
and will cheeriully meet the slight advance which
the unusual expansion of the currency neces-
