THE YEAR 1871 BIDS FAIR TO BE
l. one of the most important and fruit
full in our political history. In it will be
shaped the great issues on which the
Presidential election of 1872 must turn.
1t will be an era of new political energy
in the South, which, for the first time in
twelve years, comes unfettered into ma
tional canvass; and an era of confident
hope to the Democratic party everywhere.
The superannuated issues on which the
Radical party have stood are passing out
of politics, and the laundering imbecility
and profigate extravaganza of General
Grants administration need only to be
faithfully exposed to turn the tide of pub
lie feeling strongly against it. In this,
the great work of the coming year, The
World will act no secondary part Its
location in the great focus of national com
merce and intelligence, the freshness and
abundance of its news, and its recognized
position as the leading organ of the Demo
cratic party, lay upon it q mission and
apostleship which it will discharge with
unflinching boldness, vigor, fidelity, and
zeal. 1t will be in constant counsel and
communion with the tried leaders and
sagacious statesmen of the party in all the
States of the Union, cordially cooperating

and encouraging new proselytes. and lead
ing on the party as a bold and unbroken
phalanx to the great triumph which
awaits it in 1872
The share allotted to The World in this
combined and disciplined movement Of
the Democracy, in their onward march to
victory, is the dissemination of political
trnth; q work which can be fruitful only
in proportion to the extent of its circula-
ton. We ask Democrats everywhere to
aid us in scattering the good seed broad
cast over the whole land, during the period
which is SO important in reference to the
coming harvest.
AS A VEHICLE OF NEWS
The World (now in the eleventh year of
its eXistence) has always held the first
rank among metropolitan journals. Its

commercial, literary, social, domestic, and
foreign, is always fresh, abundant, various,
and accurate. comprising the whole circle

AS AN ORGAN OF OPINION
The World is fearless, trenchant, indomita-
BILE; ardent in it's advocacy of sound DEM
ocratic principles. unsparing in it's denun-
citation of political abuses and corruption
and not combining it's discussions to mere
politics, it takes wide range, touches
upon great variety of subjects, and aims
to be a safe guide of public opinion on all
topics which engage public attention. 1t
gives conspicuous prominence to trade,
commerce, and finance, and on these topics
invites comparison with any other journal
published at the commercial metropolis.
