THE WORLD FOR 1880.


 Democrats every where should inform themselves carefully alike of the action of their party throughout the country an6 of the movements of their Republi opponents. failure to do this in 1876 contr bu- ted greatly to the loss by the Democracy of the uts of the victory fairly won at the polls.
 The year 1880 promises to be of the most inter- est1ng and important years of this crowded and eventful century. It will witness a Presidential election which may result in re-establishing the Government of this country the principles of it's constitutional founders, in permanently changing the relations of the states to the Federal power No intelligent regard such election with in- difference. The World as the only daily English newspaper published in the city of New York which upholds the doctrines a constitutional Democracy. will steadily represent the D. mocratic party in this great canvass. It will this in du spirit of serve partisanshp, but temperatey and fl mly. As a paper The World, being the orgin of no man, clique and interest, will present the fullest and the farest picture it make of each days passing history in the city, the State. the country and the world. It will aim hereafter, heretofore, at cu- racy first of all things in all that it publishes. No man, however humble, shall ever be permitted truly to complain that he has been unjustly dealt with in the columns of The World, No interest, however powerful shall ever be permitted truly boast that it can silence the fair criticism of The World.
 During the past year The World has seen it's daily circulation trebled and it's weekly circulation pushed far beyond that of any other weekly newspaper in the country. This great increase has been won, The World believes by truthfuness enterprise ceaseless activity in collecting and unaltering loyalty to itself and to it's readers in dealing with the questions of the da. It is our hope and it will be our enderv or that The Worlds record for 1880 may be written in the appreciation and the support of many thous- ands more or new readers Tn all parts or thls lndsso~ luble Union of Indestructible States.
