The New Vor k I/ay-Book is a straight forward
Itadical Democratic paper, with a larger circu
lation than any other Democratic journal ever
published on this contineni. and It enters on
the threshold of MIS more prosperous and mote
hopeful of the great. cause MlAllolds than ever
before. Standing on the Declaration of Inde
pendence, that "all (white) men are equal," and
therefore entitled to equal rights, It Is opposed
to all forms and degrees of special legis la tion
that conflict with this grand central truth of
Democracy, and over all and above all, does It
combat that monstrous treason to American
liberty, which, thrusting the negro element In
to our political system must of necessity wreck
the whole mighty fabric left us by our fathers.
God has created white men superior and De
grees luferior, and therefore all the efforts of
the past six years to abolish His work and.
equalize with negroes—every law violated, eve
ry*
State Constitution overthrown, every life
Sacrificed and every dollar expended, are ne
cessarily Just so ninny steps towards national
suicide; and the ti n pie and awful pro t. tem now
upon us Is just this—shall we recover our rea
son and retrace our steps, or march on to Mon
grelism, social anarchy, and the total ruin of
our country.
The Day Book, therefore, demands the resto
ration of the "Chien as it was"—a Union of co
equal States upon the white basis, as the only
hope, and the only means posible under heaven
for saving the grand ideas of 1775, and the fund
amental priciplea of American liberty, and If
the real freemen, and the earnest, believers In
that sacred and glorious cause In which the
men of the Revolution offered up their lives,
will now labor to expose the ignoranee,delusion
and treason of the Mongrel party It will sue•
meal, and the white Republic of 'Washington
be restored again in all -its original influence
and grandeur.
The Day Book will, however, hereafter be
more than ever devoted to all the varted.purpo
ses of a news paper. Conscious that It reach
es thousands of families who take no other
Journal, beyond perhaps their local paper, it
will continue and Improve Its "News of the
Week" Summary, so tat to present a transcript
of the World's events in each Issue. Its "Fam
ily Department" will embrace the best original
and selected stories. Its "Agricultural Depart
ment" will be fully sustained, and being the
onlylpaper of its class made up expressly for
country circulation, it Is confident it Is worth
double the price of a weekly hurriedly reprint
ed from a daily. It gives full and complete re
ports of the New York and Albany (tittle Mar.
'kets; Grain, Provisions and Cotton Markets,
and a Weekly review of Financial matters, to
gether with the markets, by telegraph, from
New Orleans , Cairo, Charleston, Philadelphia,

" THE WORLD."
At the opening of the year ISGS, "The World"
challenges, more confidently than ever, the
sympathy and support of ail patriotic citizens.
A'glorlous work has been gloriously begun.—
Beep already answers deep. The long fidelity
of this Journal to the cause of liberty protected
by law stands nobly vindicated In a splendor of
victory shining front Maine to California. Con
necticut, Ohlo, Pennsylvania, New Jersey, New
York, have thundered forth their verdict upon
the misrule and mfalness of the past. But touch
more remains to be done. Never was the peril
of the country greater. The Radicalparty still
decrees the death of representative self-govern
ment in ten sovereign States. Armed with mil
itary despotism and wholesale Negro Suffrage,
desperately grasps at a permanent lease of
power, In defiance of public opinion, at the cost
of enormous taxes and of crippled Industries,
at the cost of 'Union and Pizee.
To the great battle still to be fought '''The
World'. will give all its paints, all its energies.
It asks of its irlends in their turn as much ; it
asks of therntriore readers and a wider influ
ence. It asks this with confidence in its claims
as a newspaper' and as , un organ of opinion.
The chief use of a Newspaper is to give Its
readers
ALL THE NEWS.
For this the facilities of "The World" are un
surpassed by any Journal In .the United States.
It seeks to excel by an accuracy and candor, a
spirit and freshness In its news columns winch
shall commend it to readers of whate% er party,
sex, creed or place.
As an organ of opinion "The World - is the un
flinching champion of
A Liberal, Progressive Democracy,
whereof the corner stone is Freedom restrained
by Justice; Freedom pure an& simple, in the
largeSt collective measure•, the taco of Justice
being to protect Freedom from encroachments ;
Freedom of the individual eitizat in his rights of,
though, speech, religion and locomotion; in his
Right to make any money bargains ho thinks
proper in spite or foolish usury laws; in hier
Right to buy and sell in all markets, domestic
and foreign, in spite of unjust protcdive thrill's;
in his Right to choose his own (odd and drink,
la spite of meddlesome temperance laws ; In his
Right to represen tatlon in the klti slat ice btxlies
which tax 111114 in spite of unconstitutional ex
clusions; Freedom of collective citizens to as
semble for discussion of glevances; Freedom of
-all local coinmunitics to manage thCir local af
fairs without central interference; FreLviom in
every section of the country, Lunt the arrogant
and uneonstit utional domination of other sec
tions. This large ,and comprehensive idea of
Freedom sums up the polities of The World,"
which will never be found want lug to this cap
ital interest of the country - and of the human
race.
