The NEW YORK TRIBUNE-ls7l


the puis. OF happiness, is no longer glitter
ing generality, poets fancy, philosophers
speculation, but the recognized base of our po-
lIlical fabric. The benign Revolution, which
dates from the Boston Massacre Of ITO, find:
lis logical completion, just one century later,
in the XVIII Amendment, which gives to the
equal political and civil rights of every mar
born or naturalized in our Republic the shield
and defense Of the Federal Constitution. The
pillows of Caste aud Privilege may roar and
rage around that rock, and may transienty
seem on the point of washing il away but its
foundations are deeplaid and steadfast, and
the breakers OF Reaction and Slavery are hurl-
ed against and dash their spray over il IN vain
We do not underrate The forces of Prejudice
and Aristocracy. We do not forget that a
very large minority of the American People
still hold in their inmost hearts that Blacks
have no rights which Whites are bound to res
pect. We fully appreciate the desperation
wherewith all the warning eleme hts OF hatred
| to Republican achievement will be combined
and hurled against the battements of Repub-
| llcan ascendency in the Presidential Election
| OF 1872. We do not doubt that local successes,
| facilitated by Republican ieuds and dissensons
| will inspire the hosts with sanguine hope
OF victory, such as nerved it TO put forth lis
utmost strength in the earlier stages of the con-
tests of 1864 and 1868. Yet our faith is clear
and strong that the American People still bless
God that on the red battle-felds of our late
| Civil War, the Union was upheld and Slavery
| destroyed, and will never consciously decide
that the precious blood thereon poured out was
| lavished in vain.
The TRIBUNE believes in the prosecution OF
the great struggle by legitimate means to be-
| nlhcent ends. 10 State Sovereignty, il opp0-
SEES indissoluble National Integrity 10 Slavery
for Blacks, Liberty for All; to Prescription,
Enfrsnchlsement to Popular Ignorance, Uni
| Versal Education TO intensity and eternity of
wrathful Hate, universal and invincible Good
| Will. Ii would fam do its utmost TO hasten
the glad day when the South shall vie with
the North in exultation and gratitude over the
disappearance Of the last trace or faint of that
| spirit which impelled Man to exult in the
ownership and chattehood of his fellow Man
Profoundly do we realize that the contest is
not yet ended-that Millions mourn, more or
less publicly, the down fall of the Shareholders
| Coniederacy, and rear their children TO hate
those by whose yalor aud constancy its over
| throw was achieved. If we ever seem TO diff
fer essentially from other Republicans, our
conviction that magnanimity is never weakness,
that vengeance is never polite, and that devils
are not cast out by Beelzebub, must serve to
| explain alleged eccentricities whose perfect
| vlndicatIon We leave TO Time and Reflection
| The TRIBUNE has been, is, and must be- a
| Jealous advocate of Protection to Home Indus
| try. Regarding habitual idleness as the great
| est Toe 10 human progress, the bane of human
| happiness, we seek TO win our countrymen in
masses from the eusnarng lures Of Speculation,
| OF Traffic, and of always overcro DIVIDED Profess
slons, to the tranquil paths of Productive In
dustry. We would gadly deplete our over
crowded cities, where thousands vainly jostIe
| and crowd IN misguided quest of ''Something
| 10 Do" 10 cover pralrles and plains with col
| onieS absorbed in Agricultural, Mechanics aud
Manufactures; and constantly projecting into
the blank, void wilderness the homes aud the
works of civilized Man. Holding the Protec-
ton of Home Industry by discriminating du-
ties on imported Wares and Fabrics essential
TO the rapid, benifcent diffusion of Production
| IN all its phases and departments. and so to the
instruction OF our people in all the gainful arts
| OF Peace, we urge our counirymen to adhere
to and uphold that policy, in undoubting faith
that the true interest, not OF class section,
| but of each section and every useful class, is
thereby subserved and promoted
! The TRIBUNE aims to be prominently a
| Newspaper. It's correspondents traverse
every State, are present on every important
battlefield, are early advised of every notable
| Cabinet decision, observe the proceedings of
| Congress, OF Legislatures, and of Conventions,
and report 10 US by telegraph all that seems of
| general interest. We have paid for one days
Tomentous advices from Europe by Cable far
more than our entire receipts for the issue in
| which those advices reached onr readers. If
lavish outlay, unsleepng vigilance, and UNI
bounded faith in the iberality and discern
ment of the reading public, will enable us to
make journal which has no superior in the
accuracy, variety, and freshness of its contents,
| The TRIBUNE shall be such journal.
To Agriculture and the subservlent arts, we
have devoted, and shall presently devote, more
means and space than any of our rivals. We
aim to make The Weekly TRIBUNE such a
paper as no farmer can afford TO do without,
however widely his politics may differ from
ours. Our reports of the Cattle, Horse, Pro-
duce, and General Markets; are so full and &C
curate, our essays in calculation of the farmers
calling, and our regular reports of the Farmers
| Club and kindred gatherings, are so interesting,
| that the poorest farmer will find therein a mine
OF suggestion and counsel, of which he cannot
remain ignorant without positive and serious
loss. We sell The Weekly TO Clubs for less
than ats value in dwellings for waste paper f;
and, though its subscription is already very
large, we believe that Half Million more
farmers will take it whenever it shall be com.
mended to their attention. We ask our friends
everywhere to aid us in so commenting it.
