The Democracy of the North will COM
nit fatal error if they accept the result OF
he late Presidential election as an indica-
tion from the hand of Destiny 10 relax
their political acsion until the opening
THE next campaign. The future welfare
the republic depends upon the polite
zeal and activity Of the Democracy during
the year 1865.
The small! majority of the popular vote
that elected the Black Republican candi-
dates, considered in view of the exlraordi-
nary resources of the Administration for
corruption and cpmpulson, altests that the
power of the Democracy, on a fair field, is
equal 10 the vindicalion OF Democratic
principles.
There is one feature in the result of the
Presidential election that goes far TO re
concile the patriot TO the hard fate of hi
country under four years more of Black
Repn blican misruIe. The bslefnl meteor
that fingered IN grief while in our political
atmosphere has vanished for ever. War
! Democracy has fulfilled its mission of dis
organization, and like any other pestileu euce
will be remembered only for the evil it
has done.
The issue now before the people is The
final struggle. between Generalization and
States Rights, and 40 journal is Democrat
ic that is not the devoted champion of
Siates' Rights, the paramount Principe of
the Dem ocratic faith.
The New York News needs no testimony
beyond It's plain unalierabIe record 10 sub
stantfate It's claim to being and having
been the most earnest, able aud consistent
States Rights Journal in The land. We
have no excuses TO invent for notifications
of sentiment, nor have we TO plea Eek
pediency" in palIiaIion of inconsistency.
Onr path has been straight forward. Our
columns are before the people, not a line
in them that we would cancel nor senti-
ment we would recall, not an assertion
that requires an explanation, not word
that we regret 10 have uttered, not prln-
ciple advocated that we have not stood by
and will sland by TO The last. Such has
been our past record, so will be our fuiure.
We 10 not, however, ask the Democracy
10 sustain US in our mission as a reward
for the service we have done, but in con~
sideralion Of thetgood work that we pro-
pose to DO. The Nav York News for 1865
will not merely initiate lis predecessors, it
will excel them. II shall be, noI only the
truesi exponent cf Democratic principle,
bul the best newspaper in the country.
Heretofore it has had no superior as We
Thicle of news, hereafter il shall have no
equal In,every deparIm ent of journalism
we have arranged that The News shall dis
tance competition. 1t is the only Demo
cratic ne wspaper in The metropolis that has
the advantage of publishing a daily isspe
with the full dispatches of the Associated
Press, and therefore its machinery for fur
nIshing complete record of events is
more perfect than that of any of lis Demo-
cratic contemporaries. None have attempt
ed latterly, TO compete with ii in the publi-
cation OF Southern intelligence, our
system of exchange with Southern journals
battles the sagacity and enterprise OF our
rivals.
glance al the columns OF The News
devoted 10 "SouIhern and Northern per-
sonas" will remark the extraordinary sue-
cess that has ate nded our enterprise in
that direction. We are in daily receipt of
letters expressing the thanks OF those who,
through the medium OF the personals" in
The News, have been enabled 10 receive
tdin9s from their friends and relatives in
The South, and the heart of many an exile
and wandefer has been gladdened through
hat instrume ntaIity By words OF affection
aud hope from those mourned for as dead
The New York News has become so
popular in The rural districts that other Me
lropoltan journals, in publishing their
sIeFeotyped boast Of s'Ihe LARGEST ciTeuia
lion OF any weekly iournaf' are constrain-
ed 10 make an exception in our favor 1t
is significant circumstance that since the
Presidential election and consequent de-
mise Of War Democracy, the subscriptions
TO This paper have been unusually numef
Gus.
The Agricultural Department OF The
New York News renders it an invaluable
companion and assistant to the farmer
and It's Cattle, Market and Produce Re-
ports are more reliable and full than those
of aEy other journal.
The Daily News will forfeit one thou
sand dollars il, in the above Departm ents,
competent judges should deny ITS superb
ority.
