During the long and exciting Presidential cam
paign Of 1876, and the anxious period Of political
uncertainty which succeeded il, THE NEW-YORK
TIMES had very important share in determin-
ING the result OfO1e Of the most momsutous con-
tests in American history. The course OF THE
TIMES during the whole Of that eYentfu. struggle
has secured for il a large addition to the der
fits supporters. and has placed beyond cOntro-
Yersy its position as the foremost Republican
newspaper in the United States.
The course of TIE TIMES VIII be guidsd in the
future it has been in the past By the consider
alton that the interests Of the Republican PARTY
sre in all be set above the interests OF Its
leaders and that the honor and welfare Of the
country are TO be considered before either. It's
attitude is that Of independence pithin the Re
publican Pa ty, for in that way can the interests
Of the people be most efFeetually served
So long as any OF the great principles with
which the Party has been idenIhed remains in dis
dispute. THE TIMES will refuse 10 consider the
work Of the Repu blicanism as ended Il viii IA
Dor to maintain the highest standard OF partisan
obligation inPthe treatment Of questions affecting
the dnantial honor Of TIE nation, the publication
Of the public service, and the gradual readiuIt
ment of the fiscal system to meet the changing
conditions OF trade and manufactures. II viii
steadily oppose all plans, no matter By WON urg-
ed, which tend TO postpone the date oiresumption
itOr on any Olner basis than that Of gold 70 pre-
serve import duties which clog the Development
Of American industry, or to perperuate In The p1b
lie service the pernieOus principles that 70 the
vicIOrs belong the spOIls."
While carefully avoiding all that may tend %
promote, sectional animosity among our people,
the national duty Of protecting the freedmen and
the Northern immigrants in the South In he pos
session Of rights guaranteed them By the Cohsti-
tuition. 1t will do all In Its power promote the
policy of peace and Cancellation b tween North
and South but viii not lose sight Of the fact that
Northern confidence and amnesty must ind their
return in the enforcement OF even-handed justice
and scrupulous regard for the letter and spirit OF
the law on the part Of the South.
Its influence as leading exponent Of politics

to enhance the Yalne Of TIE TINES a. daily re-
cord of news. The acknowledged excellence Of
its Correspondence BY mail and telegraph from al
parts of the world will be fully maintained THE
TIMES has shown during the RussO-Turkish var
how ample are its resources. and how well direct
ed Is It's enterprise. Its VoluninOus forelgn cor
respOndence for the last year Is admitted 70 have

fullness, fairness, and accuracy as have disrin-
