PROSPECTUS. =

The EVENING Posr. now in its sixty -ifth
year. having begun with this nine.s enlh ccntu-
ry, has always maintained a leading position
among the metropolitan journals.
The fearless and hearty support which it has
always given TO the great principles Of univer-
sal Justice and freedom has made il the almost
indispensable companion of brave ans! true
| men, who are more deeply interested In The
success Of principles AMI the progress OF hu
mainly than in the triumph of party.
Daring the war the Evening Post was ore Of
the most earnest and vigorous supporters Of the
cause OF the Union; it held up the hands of our
brave soldiers in the fields, and encouraged the
hearts Of our noble men and women at home;
every project for pushing on the column had its
jealous support; while il no less zealou.iy dashed
and rebuked treason in all its forns, whether
open and coura scous as al the South or corcrt
and mean. rs at the North.
Inc great measure If the war-particpariy
the reclamation Of Emancipation-was early
weicomed--incessantiy urged--and most joyful
y approved by 1t, as the imperative need %
the times. That other measure no less impor-
fant, the Constitutional Amendment. has found
in the Evening Post. its latest and most persis-
tent, as well as its earliest and most earnest,
advocate.
At the same time, with all its enthusiasm for
liberty and Union, the Evening Post did not
close its eyes to the dangers of an abuse OF
power; it was the enemy of all undue exercise
of the central authority, of all kinds of ., lit.
cal jobbery and corruption; it has insisted iron
sconomy in expenditures and of the strctest
adherence to the Constitution. To these prin
ciplcs the EvssiEg Post intends to adhere.
Pledged to no party. and looking only to the
interests Of the whole country, now happily re
stored and united. it will use whatever of ener-
gy 1t has, and Of Influence it may acquire in
behalf Of
list, Those fundamental ma1ifns of human
equality. human rights. human progress and ell
ovation which lie ut the foundation of our
democratic form Of society;
Cd, Local independence and local self gov
eminent, SO necessary to dispersion OF power,
and to the political education of the masses;
and
Sd, National unity and supromacy-not Of
national centralization-so gloriously maintain
ed BY the war. -..
But the Evening Post has always aimed to be
more than political and commercial Journal.
1t desires besides to be "a good newspaper"
In its columns will be found a complete history
of the events of the day. important political or
State documents entire, proceedings of legi.la-
tive bodies, summaries of European intelli-
gsnce, and news from all parts Of the world, &C
curate reports Of financial and commercial mat
tiers, trustworthy correspondence, and a care
fully selected literary miscellany, comprising
poetry, reviews Of new works, with liberal ex-
tracts, gossip and anscdotes-the whole form
ing an excellent variety, in which every reader
will discover something to his taste.
