nit fatal error If they accept the result OF
he late Presidential election as an indIoa-
lion from the hand of Destiny TO relax
their political action until the opening o
nhe next campaign. The future welfare o
the republic depends upon the polite
zeal and activity of the Democracy during
the year 1865.

corruption and cpmpulsion. attests that the
power OF the Democracy, on a fair field, rs
equal 10 the vIndIcation of Democratic
principles.
There is one feature in the result OF the
Presidential election that goes far 10 re
concile the patriot TO the hard fate of hi
country under four years more of Black
Republican misr1le. Che baleful meteor
that lingered in grief while in our political
atmosphere has vanished for ever. War
Democracy has fulfilled its mission of dis
organization, and like any other pestlien
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 no journal is Democrat
ic that is not the devoted champion of
States Rights, the paramount principis OF
the Dem ocratic faith.
The New York News needs no testimony
beyond its plain unaltersbIe record 10 sub
sianliate lis claim TO being and having
been the most earnest, able and consistent
States Rights Journal in the land We
have no excuses TO invent for notifications
of sentiment, nor have we to pie ad Eek
pediency" in palliaiion of inconsistency.
Our path has been straight forward Our
columns are before the people, not a line
IN them that we would cancel nor senu
ment we would recall, not an assertion
that requires an explanation, not a word
that We regret 10 have uttered, not prin-
cIple advocated that we have mol stood by
and will stand by 10 The last. Such has
been our past record, so will be our future.
We 10 not, howeS er, ask the Democracy
10 sustain us in our mission as a reward
for the service we have. done, but in con-
slderallon OF the good work that we pro-
pose to DO. The Nsw York News for 1865
will not merely initiate It's predecessors, II
will excel them. 1t shall be not only the
tiuest exponent cf Democratic principle,
but the best newspaper in the country.
Heretofore u has had no superior as ve-
hIcle OF news. hereafter IL shall have no
equal. In every deparm ent of journalism
we have arranged that the News shall dis
tance competition. 1t is the only Demo
cratic newspaper in The metropolis that has
the advantage of publishing a daily issue
with The full dispatches Of the Associated
Press, and therefore lis machinery for fur
nlshIng a compete record of events is
more perfect than that of any of lis De mo-
I cratic contemporaries. None have attempt
ed iattery, TO compete with it in the publi-
cation OF SoulherL intelligence, as our
| system of exchange with Southern journals
5atties The sagacny and enterprise OF our
rivals.
A glance at tn e columns ofsThe News
devo;ed 10 Southern and Northern per-
ssonals" 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 oi The personals" In
| The News, have been enabled TO receive
-Iidings from their friends and relatives in
the South, and the heart OF many an exile
and wanderer has been gladdened through
that instrum eutaIity 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-
tropoitan journals, in publishing their
slereotyped boast of s.ihe largest clrculs-
lion of any weekly journal" are constrain-
ed 10 make an exception in our favor II
is significant Circumstance that since The
Presidential election and consequent de-
mise of War Democracy, The subscriptions
10 this paper have been unusually numer-
Gus.
The Agricultural Department OF The
New York News renders il an invaluable
companion and assistant TO the farmer !;
aud it's CaItle, Marker and Produce Re-
ports are more reliable and full than those
of aEy other journal.
The Daily News will forfeit one thou
