the principles of Government which
raided our fathers in the fonndatkm ot the
Republic. The spirit and doctrine of the
two first volumes will be folly maintained
in the third volume. We hare no compro
mises to make with error no parley wivh
despdtisni.. .Democracy -will be treated,
vDOtao a varying policy of cunning office
seekers and spoil-hunters, but ratber as an
abiding principle of political economy and
of popular liberty. - All supporters of this
revolutionizing, Abolition war, will be held
.. as the enemies . of. ihe Democracy. We
shall acknowledge no organization to be
Democratic wbicadoes not honestly ennn
ciate. and support the principles of the
'Kentucky aud Virginia Reflations of 1798
and the Dred Scott Decision of the Su
preme Court; the one asserting Stale Sov
treignty and the other TThlte svpremacy. To
preserve these honorable doctrines, the
Democratic party was organized by the
vey fpundersof the Federal Government,
and it remained true to them down .10 the
fatal and dishonoring departure, at the
cfKnmencement of this war. The Old
Gnard is an organ of Democracy as it was,
before this cowardly surrender of principle
and.'as it must be aain, before it can re
deem our country from the rule of faction
and despotism. This year it has been en

The Democracy of jhe North will corn
mi a fatal error if they accent the result of
he late Presidential election as an indica
'ion from the hand of Destiny to relax
their political action until the opening o
tthe next campaign. The future welfare o
the republic depends upon the politic a
zai ana activity ot the Democracy durwig
the year. 1865. "
haie smill majority of the popular vole
elect. I the Black Republican carrdi
dates, considered in view of Ihe extraordi
nary resources of the Administration for
corruption and cpmpulsion, 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 th
Presidential eleciion that goes far to re
concile the patriot to the hard fate of hi
country under four years . more of. Black
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 oaly for the evil it
has done. . . :
The issue now before the people is Ihe
final struggle between Centeraliztion and
States7 Right, and no journal is Dernocral
iq that is not the devoted champion of
States' Rights, the paramount priucipie of
the Democratic-faith.
The New York News needs no testimony
beyond its plain unalterable recoid to sub
stantiate its claim to being1 and having
been the- moft earnest, able and consistent
States' Rights Journal in the land. We
have no excuses to invent for modifications
of sentiment, nor have we to plead "ex
pediency" in pslliation of inconsistency.,
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 explanaiion, not a word
that we regret io have ut'.ered, not a prin
ciple advocafed-tbat we have not stood by
and will stand by to the last. Silttr has
been our past record, so will be our future.
We Jo not, however, ack the Democracy
to sustain ns 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, u
til !- I. . II , . .
win excei mem. it snail oe, tot only the
t'uesi exponent cf Democratic principle
but the best newipaper in the country.
Heretofore it has had no superior as a ve
hicle of news, hereafter it shall have uo
equal. In every department of journalism
we have arranged that ihe News shall dis
tance competition.' It is the only Demo
cratic uewspaper in the metropolis that has
the advantage of publishing a 'daily issue
with the full dispatches- of the Associated
Press, and therefore its machine.ryfp refur
nishing, a complete . record of events is
more perfect than that of any of i:s Demo
cratic cotemporaties. None have attempt
etl latterly, io compete with it in the publi
cation ol - Souther. i -intelligence, as our
ystem of exchange with Southern journals
baffles tke sagacity and enterprise of our
rivals. .
A glance at the columns of iThe News
devoted to ''Southern aud Northern per
sonals" will remark the extraordinary suc
cess that bas attended our enterprise in
that direction. We are in daily receipt of
leliers expressing the thanks of those who,
through the medium of the 'Personals'' in
The News, have been enabled lo receive
tidings from their ftiends- and relatives in
the South, and the heart of many an exile
and wanderer has been gladdened throuh
ihat instrumentality by words of affection
and hope lrom those mourned for as dead.
The New York News has -become so
popular in t.he rural districts thai other .Me
tropolitan journals,- in publishing their
stereotyped boast of i "the largest circula
tion of any weekly journal" are constrain-,
ed to make an exception in our favor It
is a significant circumsiance that, since the
Presidential election and consequent de
mise of War Democracy, the Mibscripiions
101ms paper nave Leen unusually numer
ous. .
The Agricultural Department of The
New -York News renders it an invaluable
companion and assistant to the farmer;
and its Catde, Market and Produce Re
ports are more reliableand full than those
of any other journal.

Gentlemen. About three years ago oat
daaghter, now twelve yeas- of age, was
severely afflicted with croup. A general
irritation of ihe lungs followed, producing
a hectic cough, which became almost con
slant, swelling of "ihe temples and other
indications of Consumption were also ap.
parent, and her life was despaired of by
her physician. At this critical moment wo
were induced lo give Dr. Wistar'e Balsam
of Wild Cherry a trial, and after she had
taken one bottle we found her so much re
lieved that il was thought unnecessary to
continue its use. ince that time we have
used the Balsam in our family in cases of
Coa-ghs and Colds, fnd believe it to be a
superior remedy for all diseases of the
