THE TRIBUNE FOR 1864.
ROSP TUS.

THE New YORK TRrBU NE, first issued April 10,
1871, has to-day larger aggregate circulation
than any other newspaper published in America,
or eve bclieve) III the world. Compelled year
since, to increase tke price of its several issues,
submit to the pccuniary ruin Of its proprctoTs from
the very magnitude of its circulation, il has pr0ba
bly, since parted with some patrons to whom its re-
markable cheapncss was II controlling recommended
ton but others have taken their places, and it has
now more than Two Hundred Thousand subscribers
and regular purchascrs-au excess of at least Fifty
Thousand over those ofany rival. Aud this unprcce
dented currency il has achieved by very liberal cx
pcndtures in procuring early and authentic inteli
gencc, by the fearless expression of convictions,
by the free employment of ability and industry
wherever ii might contribute TO excellence in any
department of our enterprise and by unshrinking
fidelity to the dictates of Justice, Humanity, and
Freedom.
by very largo outlaws for early and authentic ad-
vices by telegraph and otherwise from its own cor
respondents with the various armies OF the Union,
and by special efforts to furnish such information
respecting Markets, Crops, ncw discoveries or i'm
provcmcuts III Agriculture, &c. aR mast specially
interest farmers, have asSduOusy iabarcd TO
make journal calculated To meet the wants and
subserve the interests OF the Producing Glasses.
That eni we have at least mcaSurably attained
for no other newspaper exists in America or Eu
rope which is ha5itualiy read by nearly so many
farmers and their families aS is TEE TRIBUNE to-
day. We shall labor to increase both the number
and the satisfaction of this by far the most numcr
ous class of its patrons.
During the existence Of the Whg party, this
paper supported that party, though always sympa-
thUing with the more liberal progressive Anti
Slavery wing" thereof. Whcp issues dis
solved or transformed old organizations through the
spontaneous uprising of the people of the Free
States against the reputation Of the Missouri Re-
strirtiOn THE TRIBUNE heartily participated in that
movement, and was known as Republican. When
the long smnuldcring conspiracy to divide and de-
strOy our country or reduce it entire to complete
abGsement to the Stare Power culminated in overt
treason and rebellion, II naturally, necessarily re-
garded resistance to this conspiracy At paramount
to all other considerations and devoted all its ener
gies and efforts to the maintenace of our Union.
In every great controversy which has divided our
country, it has been found on that side which natu-
rally commands the sympathy aud support Of the
large majority of school houses AMI the decided
minority of grog shops, aud doubtless will be to
the last.
Ardently desiring and striving for the early and
enduring adjustment of our National distractions,
TnE TRIBuNE leaves the time, the nature and the
conditions OF that adjustment implicitly to those
lawfully in authority, cOntiding in their wisdom
and patriotism, anxious to aid them to the utmost in
their arduous responsibilities and not to embarrass
them even by possibility. Firmly believing in the
Apostolic rule" First pure, then peaceablc"--
holding that the total and final cxtrpation of
Slavery is the true and only absolute cure for our
National ills-that any expedient that stops short
of this can have but transient and illusory sue
cess-wc vet PROFOUND no theory Of " re -cOnstruc-
ton, and lndorse none that has been prOpOun led
by anOthcr-neither Summers. nor Writings, nor
any of the various Coppcrhead devices for achiev-
ing peace" by surreuderiHg the Republic into
the power of its traitorous foes-but, exhorng the
American people to have faith in their Government,
to re-eufGree their armies and replensh their rea-
sury, we believe that, if they but do their duty,
benign Providence will in due time bring the fear
full struggle to such a close as Will best subscrve
the true greatness of our country and the perma-
nent well-being of mankind.
