The Democracy OF the North will conn
nit fatal error If they accept the result Of
! the late Presidential election as an ndioa-
lion from The hand of Destiny 10 relax
their political action until the opening Of
the next campaign. The future welfare of
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, cons Idered in view of The exIraordi-
nary resources of The Administration for
corruption and cpmpusion, attesis that The
! power of the Democracy, on a fair field, rs
] equal 10 the vindcalion OF Democratic
J principles.
There is one feature in the result of the
! Presidential election that goes far 10 re

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 pestilence
will be remembered only for the evil il
has done.
The issue now before the people is the
6nal struggle between Generalization and
States Rights, and 40 journal is Democrat
ic that is not the devoted champion of
Siates' Rights, the paramount Principe oi
the Dem ocratic faith.
The New York News needs no testimony
beyond its plain unaliersble record 10 sub
siantiate It's claim 10 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 TO pie ad Eek
pediencyu in pslliaiion of inconsistency
Our path has been straight forward Our
columns are before the people, mol a line
In them that we would cancel nor senti-
ment we would recall, not an assertion
that requires an explanation, not a word
that we regret 10 have uttered, not Prn-
ciple advocated that we have not stood by
and will stand by to the last. Such has
been our past record, so will be our future.
We 10 not, however, ask the Democracy
10 sustain US in our mission as a reward
I for the service we have done, but in con-
: sideration OF the good work that we pro-
pose TO do. The Nsw York News for 1865
will not merely initiate its predecessors, il
will excel them. Ii shall be, no only the
! truest exponent CT Democratic principle,
but the best newspaper in the country
/ Heretofore 1t has had no superior as We
/ hiele of news, hereafter ii shall have no
equal. In every departm ent of journalism
we have arranged that The News shall dis
iance 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 IFS machinery for fur
| nishing a complete record of events is
! more perfect than that of any of lis De mo-
/ cratic emporaries. None have attempt
ed latterly, TO compete with it in the publi-
cation OF Southern intelligence, as our
! system of exchange with Southern journals
battles The sagacity and enterprise Of cur
I rivals.
! A glance at the columns of The News
7 devo'ed TO "SouIhern and Northern per-
sonaIs" will remark The extraordinary sue
/ cess that has attended our enterprise in
( that direction. We are in daily receipt of
I letters expressing the thanks OF those who ,
! through the medium OF the Personals in
The News, have been enabled 10 receive
lidinas from their frienGs and relatives in
! The South, and the heart of many an exile
and wanderer has been gladdened through
that instrumentality by words OF affection
and hope from those mourned for as dead.
Tie New York News has become so
popular 10 The rural districts that other Me-

stereotyped boast of ''the largest cifcula-
ton Of any weekly journal" are constraiu-
ed TO make an exception in our favor IL
is significant Circumstance that since the
Presidential election and consequent de-
mise oil War Democracy, the Subscriptions
10 this paper have been unusually numer-
ous.
The Agricultural Department OF The
New York News renders il an invaluable
companion and assistant TO the farmer
and lis CalIle, 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 If, in the above Departm enls,
competent judges should deny lis superi.
