despotism. Democracy, will be treated,
.j . not aa a varying policy. of connirg offloe-
seekers and spoil hunters, but rather ad an
abiding principle of political economy and
of popular liberty. AH supporter of this
revolutionizing, Abolition war, will be held
as the enemies of lite Democracy. We
fhall acknowledge no organization lo be
'Democratic which does not honestly enun
eiale ' and support the "principles of ihe
Kentucky aud Vvginia Resolation of 1798
and the Dred Scott Decision of the Sn
;preme Court, the one asserting Stale Sou
treignly and the other IVhiti supremacy. To
.'" preserve these honorable doctrines, the
Democratic party was organized by the
vey founders of the Federal Government,
and it fern lined true to them down to the

15- Wood, Ed. and Proprietor
The Democracy ol the North will com
mit a fa:al error if they acceDl the result of
he lat Presidential election as an indica
tion from the hand of Destiny to rela
thfir political action until the opening o
tine next campaign. 1 he future welfare o
j the republic depends upon the politics
I ztal and activity of the Democracy during
the year 1865.
Tne 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 cpmpolsion.. attests that Ihe
power of the Democracy, on a fair field, is .
equal lo the vindication of Democratic
principles.
There is one feature in ihe result of the
Presidential flepiion that goes far to re
coocile Ihe patriot to the hard fate of hi
country under four years more of Black
Republican misrule, fhe baleful meteor
thai lingered in grief while in our political
atmo-phere 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 ii
has done.
The issue now before the people is the
final struggle between Centralization and
"States' Rights, and no journal j Democrat
ic that is not the devoted champion of
Slates' Rights, the paramount principle of
the Democratic faith.
The New York News needs no testimony
beyond its plain unalterable record lo sub
stanliate it? claim to bring and having
been the mot earnest, able and consistent
Slates' Rights Journal in the land. We
have no excuses to invent for modifications
of sentiment, nor have we to pit ad "ex
pediency" in palliation of inconsitlencv.
Our path has been straight forward. Our
columns are before the people, not a line
in them that we would cancel nor senti
ment we would recall, not an assertion
that requires an explanation, not a word
that we regret io have nt'.ered, not a prin
ciple advocated that we have not stood by
and will stand by to the last. Such has
been our part record, so will be our future.
We do not, however, ask ihe" Democracy
to sustain us in our mission as a reward
for the service we have done, but in con
sideration ot the sood work that we pro
pose to do. The Nw York News for 1865
will not merely imitate its predecessors, it
will excel them. It shall be, not only the
truest exponent cf Democratic principle,
bot the best iieicspxper in the country.
Heretofore it has had no superior as a ve
hicle of news, hereafter it shall have no
equal. In every department of journalism
we have arranged that the News shall dis
tance competition. It is the only Demo
cratic newspaper in the metropolis that has
ihe advantage of publishing a daily issue
with the full dispatches of the Associated
Press, and therefore its machinery for fur
nishing a uomple'e record of events is
more perfect than thai of any of i:s Demo
cratic coiemporaries. None have attempt
ed latterly, to compete with it in the publi
cation ol Southern intelligence, as our
system of exchange with Southern journals
LarHes rl.e sagacity and enterprise of our
rivals.
A glance at the columns of The News
devoted lo 'Southern and Northern per
sonals" will remark the extraordinary suc
cess that has attended our enterprise in
thai direction. We are in daily receipt of
letters expressing the thanks of those who,
through the medium of the ''Personals" in
The New?, have been enabled lo receive
tidmss from their friends and relatives in
the South, and the heart of many an exiie
and wanderer has been gladdened through
ihal instrumentality by words of affection
and hope trom those mourned for as dead.
The New York"-News has become so
popular in the rural districts that other lAe
irepolitan journals, in publishing their
stereotyped boat of "the largest circula
tion of any weekly journal7' are constrain
ed lo make an exception in our favor It
if a significant circumstance that since the
Presidential election and consequent de
mie of War Democracy, the ubscriptions
to this paper have been unusually numer
ous. The Agricoltura1 Department of The
New York New 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 ar.y other journal.
The Daily News will forfeit one thou
sand dollars if, ii) the above Departments,
competent judges should deny us superi

THE SINGER SEEING MACHINES.
O!
UR Letter A Family Sewing Machine is
fast saining a world-wide reputation. It
is beyond doubt the best and cheapest and
most beautiful of all Family Sewing Ala
chines yet offered to the public. No other
Family Sewing Alachine has so many use
ful appliances for Hemming, Binding, Fell
ing, Tucking, Gathering, Guaging, Braiding
Embroidering, Cording, and so forth. No
other Family Sewing Alachine has so much
capacity for a greal variety of work. It will
sew all kinds of clmh, and with all kinds of
thread. Great and recent improvements
nake our Family Sewing Alachine most
reliable, and most durable, and 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 ordinary capacity,can see, at a glance
how to use the letter A Family Sewing
Alachine. Our Family Sewing Machines
are finished in chaste and exquisite style.
The Folding Case of the Family Ala
chine is a piece of cunning workmanship
of the most useful kind. It protects the ma
chine when not in use, and when about to
be operated may be opened as a spacious
and substantial table lo sustain the work.
While some of the Cases, made out of the
choicest woods, are finished in the sim
plest aud chastest manner possible, others
are adorned and embelished in the most
costly and superb manner.
It is absolutely necessary to see the Fam
ily Alach.ine in operation, so as to judge of
its great capacity and beauty.
It is fast becoming as popular for family
sewing as our Alanulacturing machines are
for manufacturing purposes.
The Branch Offices are well supplied with
silk twist, thread, needles, oil, etc., of the
very best quality.
