their political action until the opening o

the republic depends upon the polite
zeal and activity of the Democracy during
the year 1865.
The small m sjoriiv Of the popular vote

There is one feature in the result of the
Presidential election that goes far TO re
coBcile the patriot TO the hard fate of hi
country under four ears more of Black
Republican misruIe. Che balefnl meteor
that fingered in grief while in our political
atmosphere has vanished for ever. War
Democracy has fulfilled lis mission of dis
organization, and like any other pestlence
will be remembered only for the evil il
has done.
The issue now before the people is the
final Struggle between Generalization and
Slales' Rights, and no journal is Democrat
ic that rs not the devoted champion of
States' Rights, the paramount Principe oil
the Dem ocratic iaith.
The New York News needs no testimony
beyond It's plain unalterabie record TO sub
sianliate lis claim TO being and having
been the most earnest, able and consistent
Stales' Rights Journal in The land. We
have no excuses TO invent for notifications
of sentiment nor have we 10 pie ad Eek

Onr path has been straight forward. Our
columns are before the people, not a line
In them that " e would cancel nor senti-
menl we would recall, not an assertion
that requires an explanation, not word
that We regret 10 nave uttered, not prin
ciple advocated thai we have mol stood by
and will stand by to The last. Such has
been our pact record, 80 will be our future.
We 10 not, however, ask the Democracy

pose 10 90. The NV York News for 1865
will not merely initiate It's predecessors, IT
will excel them. Ii shall be. not only the
uuesl exponent CT Democratic principle,
but the best newspaper IN The country.
Heretofore II has bad no superior as We
hcle of news. hereafter il shall have no
equal. In every departm eui of journalism
We have arranged that the News shall dis
Iance competition Ii is the only Demo
cratic newspaper in the metropolis that has
the advantage of publishing daily issue
with the full dispatches OF the Associated
Press, and therefore its machinery for fur
nishing comp.e.e record of events is
more perfect than that of any of is Demo
cratic colemporaries. None have attempt
ed lattery, TO compete with it in the publI-
cation OF SouiherI intelligence, as our
system of exchange with Southern journals
1affles The ssgacny and enterprise Of our
rivals.
glance a, the columns OF The News
devo!ed to Southern and Northern per-
sonals" will remark the extraordinary sue
cess that has attended our enterprise in
that direction. We are in daily receipt of
letters expressing the thanks of those who !,
through the medium oil the personals" in
The News, have been enabled 10 receive
lidDgs from their lrienCs and relatives in
the South, and lhe heart of many an exile
and wanderer has been gladdened through
that instruwenlaity by words OF affection
and hope from those mourned for as dead.
The New York News has become so
popular in The rural districts that other Me-
uopoItan journals, in publishing their
slereoiyped boast of ''ihe largest circula-
lion OF any weekly journal" are constrain-
ed.to make an exception in our favor IL
is significant Circumstance that since the
Presidential election and consequent de-
mise of War Democracy, the subscriptions
10 this paper have been unusually numer
