The World For 1880.

Democrats everywhere should inform
themselves carefully alike of the action of
their party throughout the country and of
the movements of their Republican oppo-
nents. A failure to do this in 1876 con-
tributed greatly to the loss by the Demoe-
racy Of the fruits of the victory fairly won
at the polls.
The year 1890 promises to be one Of the
most Interesting and important years of
this crowded and eyentful century. 1t will
witness Presidential election which may
result in establishing the Government of
this country on the principles OF It's con
stitutional foIpders, or In permanently
changing the relations OF the States to the
Federal power. No intelligent man can re-
gard such an election with indifference.
The WORLD, as the only English newspa-
per published in the city OF New York
which upholds the dootrlnes OF constitu-
tiopal Democracy, will steadily represent
the democratic party in this great canvass
