abiding principle of political economy and

revolutionising, Abolition war, will be held

THE KEW yOKE AEWS,
THE BEST PAPER IX THE WORLD.
C. Wood, Ed. and Proprietor
. The Democracy of the North will com
mit a fatal error if they accept the result of
he lat' Presidential election as an indioa
'ion from the hand of Destiny to relax
their political action until the opening o
tthe next campaign. The future welfaTe o
the republic depends upon the politic a
zeal and actitity of the Democracy durin
the year 1865. '
. The small majority of the popular vote
that elected the Black Republican candi
dates, considered in view of the extraordi
nary resources of the Administration for
corruption and cpmpulsion, attests that the
power of the Democracy, on a fair .field, is
equal to iht vindication of Democratic
principles.
There is one feature in the resolt of th
Presidential election that goes far to re
concile the patriot to the hard fate of hi
country under fonr years more of Plack
Republican misrule, fhe baleful meteor
that lingered in grief while in onr political
atmo-phere has vanished for ever. War
Democracy has fulfilled its mission of dis
organization, and, like wny other pestilence
will be remembered only for the evil-it
has done.
The issue now before the people is the
final struggle between Centeralization and
Slates' Rights-, and no journal is Democrat
ic that is not the devoted champion of
States' Rights, the paramount principle ol
the Democratic faith.
The New York News needs no testimony
beyond its plain unalterable record to sub
feUoliate its claim to being and having
been the mot earnest, able and consistent
Stales' Rights Journal in the land. We
have no excuses to in vent for modifications
of sentiment, nor have we to pltaJ ''ex
pediency" in palliation of inconsistency.
Our path has been straight forward. Our
columns are belore the people, not a line
in them that we would cancel norsenti
ment we would recall, not 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 tSe'lnst. Such ha
been our pact record, so will be our future.
We do not, however, ak the Democracy
lo sustain as in oar mission- as a reward
for the service we have done, but in con
sideration ol the good work that. we pro
pose to do. The Nw York News for 1865
will not merely imitate it predecessors, it
will excel them. It shall be not only the
t'uest exponent cf Democratic principle,
but the best newspaper in the country.
Heretofore u hs had no superior as a ve
hicle of news, hereafter it shall have no
efj'Jal. In every department of journalism
we have arrngtd that the News shall dis
tance competition. It is the only Demo
cratic newspaper i.T the metropolis that has
the advantage "of puMi-hin a daily issue
with the full dispatched of the Associated
Press, and therefore its machinery for fur
nishing a coTnple'e record rf events is
more perfect than that of any of its Demo
cratic cotemporaries. None havp attempt
ed latterly, to compete with it in the publi
cation ot Southerj intelligence, as our
syMem of exchange with Southern journal
baffles the sagacity and enterprise of our
rivals.
A glance at the columns of The News
devoed to ''Southern and Northern per
sonals'7 will remark the extraordinary suc
cess that has . attended our enterprise in
that direction. We are in daily-receipt of
letters expresin the tnank of those who,
through the mediom ol the "Personals" in
The News, have been enabled to receive
tidings from their friends and relatives in
the South, and the heart of many an exile
and wanderer has been gladdened through
that instrumentality by words of affection
and hope Irom those mourned for as dead.
The New York News has become so
popular in the rural di.-trict that other Me
tropolitan journals, in publishing their
stereotyped boat of "the 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. The Agrieultura1 Department of The
New York News renders it an invaluable
companion and assistant !o the farmer ;
and its Cattle, Market and Produce Re
ports are more reliable and full than those
of any ether journal.

sand dollars if, in the above De-parlmeni,

fcUR Letter A Family Sewing Machine is
fast gaining a world-wide reputation. It,
is beyond doubt the best and cheapest and
most beautiful of ail Family Sewing Ma
chines yet offered to the public. No other
Family Sewing Machine has so many use
ful appliances for Hemming, Binding, Fell
ing, Tucking, Gathering, Guagtng, Braiding
Embroidering, Cording, and so foith. No
other Family Sewing Machine has so much
capacity lor a great variety of work. It will
sew all kinds ofchvh, and with all kinds of
thread. Groat and recent improvements
make our Family Sewing Machine most
reliable, and most durable, aud most cer
tain in action at all rates of speed. It
makes the interlocked stitch, which is the
best stitch known. Any one, even of the
most ordinarycapacity,can see, at a glance
how to use the letter A Family Sewing
Machine. Our Family Sewing Machines
are fini-hed in chaste and exquisite style.
The Folding Case of the Family Ma
chine is a piece of -conning workmanship
of the most useful kind. It protects the ma
chine when not in use, and when about to
be opetaied may be opened as a spacious
ami substantial table lo sustain the work.
While some of the Cases, made out of the
choicest woods, are finished in the sim
plest ajd chasiest manner possible, others
are adorned and embelished in the most
costly and superb manner.
It is absolutely necessary to see the Fam
ily Machine in operation, so as lo judge of
its great capacity and beauty.
It is fast becoming as popular for family
sewing as our Manufacturing machines are
for manufacturing purposes. '

severely bfUicted with croup. A general
iintationot the lungs followed, urodocing
a hectic cough, which became almost con
sunt, swelling of ihe temples and othe
indications of Consumption were also ap
parent, and her hie was despaired of by
her physician. Ai this critical moment w
weie induced to give Dr. Wistar's Balsam
of Wild Cherry a trial, and after she had
taken one bottle we found her so much re
lieved that it was thought unnecessary to
continue its use. finc that lime we have
used the Balsam in our family in cases of
Coughs and Cold-, rnd believe it lo be
superior remedy fui all diseases of the
Lungs.
