THE BEST PA PER M TI1E WOULD.
D- Wood, I'd. and Proprietor
The Demrcracv ol tbe North wilt com
mit a fatal error if they arceD! the result of
he late Presidential election as an indioa
'Lon from the' hand of Destiny to relax
i their political action until the opening o
tthe next campaign. The future welfare o
the republic depends unon the politics
zeal and activity of the Democracy during
the year 1865.
Tue smalt majority of the popular vote
that elected the Black Republican -candidates,
considered in view of the extraordi
nary resources of the Administration for
corruption and cpmpulsiqn: attests that the
power of the Democracy, on a fair field, is.
equal to the vindication of Democratic
principles.
There is one feature in the result of the
Presidential election that goes far to re
concile the patriot to the hard fate of hi
country under four years more of Flack
Republican misrule. The baleful meteor
that lingered in grief while in our political
atmosphere has vanished for ever. War
Democracy has fulfilled its mission of dis
organization, and like any other pestilence
will be remembered; only for the evil it
has done.
The issue now before the people is the
final struggle between Centeralizaiion and
Siates' Rights, and no journal 4 Democrat
ic that is pot the devoted champion of
States' Rights, the paramount priucipts ol
the Democratic faith.
The Kew York News needs no testimony
beyond Us plain unalterable recoid to sob
sUntiate its claim to being and having
been the most earnest, able and consistent
States' Rights Journal ia the land. We
have no excuses to invent for modifications
of eeolimeiit, nor have we to pltad "ex
pedienc ". in palliation of inconsistency.
Our path has been ttraigt t forward. .Our
columns are before the people, not a line
in the in that we would cancel nor senti
ment we would recall, oot an assertion
that requires an explanation, not a word
that we regret io hive uttered, not a prin
ciple advocated that we have not stood by
and will stand by to the Ia6t. Such has
been our past record, so will be our luture.
We do not, however, ask tbe Democracy
to sustain us in our mission as a reward
for the service we have done, but in con
sideration ol the aood work that we pro
pose to do. The Nw Yoik News for 1865
will. not merely imitate its predecessors, it
will excel them. It shall be not only the
tmesi exponent rf Demociatic principle,
but the best newspaper in tbe country.
Hereioiore it has had no superior as a ve
hicle of news, hereafter it shall have no
equal. In every department of journalism
we have arrang'd-that the News shall dis
tance competition. It is the only Demo
cralic newspaper in the metropolis that has
the advantage of publishing a daily issue
with tbe full dispatches of . the Associated
Press, and therefore its machinery for fur
bishing a comple'e record of events is
more perfect than that of any of i:s Demo
cratic cotemporaries. None have attempt
ed latterly, io compete with it in the publi
cation ot Souther1.! intelligence, as our
system of exchange with Southern journals
baffles the sagacity and enterprise of our
rivals.
A glance at the columns of The News
devo ed to ''Southern and Northern per
sonals7' will remark the extraordinary suc
cess' that has attended our enterprise in
that direction. We are in daily receipt of
letters expressing the thank of lhote who,
through the medium of the '-Person a Is" in
The News, have been enabled to receive
tidings Irorn their friends and relatives in
the South, and the heart of many an exile
and wanderer has been gladdened through
ibat instrumentality by words of affection
and hope Irom those mourned for as dead.
The New York News has become so
popular io the rural districts that other Me
tropolitan journals, in publishing their
stereotyped boast of 'tbe largest circula
tion of any weekly journal" are constrain
ed to make an exception in our favor It
is a significant circumstance that since the
Presidential election and consequent de
mise of War Democracy, the subscriptions
to this paper have been unusually numer
ous. -
Tbe Agricultural Department of The
New York News renders it an invaluable
companion and assistant to the farmer;
and its Cattle, Market and Produce Re
ports are more reliable and full than those
of any other journal.
The Daily News will forfeit one thou
sand dollars if, in the above Departments,
competent judges should deny ita superi
ority. TERIS. -

Gentlemen. About thiee year ago our
daughter, now twelve years of age, was
severely afflicted with croup. A general
irritation ot the lungs followed, producing
a hectic cough, which became almost cor
stant. swelling ot Ihe temples and othe
indications of Consumption were alo ap
parent, and her hie was despaired of by
her physician. At this critical moment we
were induced to give Dr. Wistar'a Balsam
of Wild Cherry a trial, and after she had
taken one bottle we lound her so much re
lieved that it was thought unnecessary to
Continue its use. Mnce ilmf time wn liavn
used the Balsam ir, our family in cases of
Coughs u.l Cold-, i nd believe it to be a
superior letnedy foi all diseases of ihe
Lungs.
