PROSPECTUS.
THR NEW YoRK TRIBUNE, first issued April 10, 1s41,
has to-day larger aggregate circulation than any other
newspaper publishedin America or I'VE beeye In the
world. Compelled year since to increase the price OF
its several issues submit to the pecunary ruin of its
proprietors from the very magnitude of its circulation,
has probably since parted with patrons to whom
its remarkable cheapness controlling recommends
tom but others have taken their place. and IL has
than Two Hundred Thousand subscribers and regu
lar purchaeran excess of at least Fifty Thousand over
those Of any rival And this unprecedented currency
has achieved by very liberal expenditures in procuring
early and authentic intelligence, by the fearless
sion of convictions by the free employment ofabty and
Industry wherever might contribute TO excellence in
any department of enterprise and by unshrinkng
fidelity to the dictates of Justice, Humanity, and Free
dom.
BY very large outlays for early and authentic advices
by telegraph and otherwise correspondents
with the various armies of the Union and by special e
forts to furnish such information respecting Markets.
Crops new discoveries improvements in Agriculture,
&c must specially interest farmers have assdousy
labored to make journal calculated 10 meet the wants
and subserve the interests Of the Producing Classes
That end we have at least measurably attained for
other newspaper exists in America Europe which
habualy read by nearly many farmers and their fam
lilies as is THE TRIBUNE to-day We shall labor toincrease
both the number and the satisfaction of this by far the
most numerous class of its patrons.
During the existence of the Wing party this paper
supported that party, though always ssmpahzng with
the more liberal progressive Antslavery wing there
Of When new issues dssols ed transformed old organ
cations through the spontaneous uprising of the people
Of the Free States against the reputation of the Missouri
Restriction The Tribune heartily participated that
movement and known as Republican. When the
long smodering conspiracy to divide and destroy
country reduce IL entire TO complete abaseent TO the
Slave Power eliminated in overt Treason and rebellion
II naturally, necessarily regarded resistance to this
spraoy as paramount to all other considerations and de-
voted all its energies and efforts to the maintenance nf
Union. In every great controversy which has divided
onrcountry il has been found that side which natu
rally commands the sympathy and support of the large
majority of schoolhouses and the decided minority Of
grog-shors. and doubtless will be to the last
Ardenty desiring and striving for the early and endu
ring adjustment of National distractions The Tribune
leaves the time the nature and the conditions of that ad
utment implicitly to those lawfully in authority, con-
hiding In their wisdom and patriotism anxious to aid
them TO the utmost in their arduous responsibilities and
not to embarrass them by possibility Firmly be-
levng in the Apostolic rule-"Frst pure then peacea-
heholdng that the total and final extrpation ofSla-
very Is the true and only absolute for National

devices for achieving "Peace" by surrounding the Re
