A CATHOLIC FAMILY PAPER.

John Mullaly, Editor and Proprietor.

OFFICE, 419 BROADWAY.

It is the object of this Journal to supply the Catholic portion of the community with all the important and interesting news of the Catholic world, and particularly with information in regard to events and occurrences connected with the Church in the United States. Its readers are also duly informed of the progress of events in the secular, as well as in the religious, world.

The "METROPOLITAN Record" is published once a week, and contains

Sixty-four Columns of Varied and interesting Reading Matter.

It is an unswerving advocate of the principles of the American Revolution, and opposed to the encroachments of the Washington Despotism upon popular rights. Believing that the freedom of the citizen is of infinitely more value than a union cemented by military force, it is, as it always has been, against the War, and stands by the repeated declarations of the great Statesmen of the Revolution, that this is a Union of free will and not of force--a voluntary compact, not a compulsory bond.

The "Record " has never hesitated to express its opinions frankly and fearlessly with regard to the unconstitutional policy of the Administration, and has resolutely defended the great charter of Democratic freedom against the infamous designs of the party in power; it is, in a word, opposed to Conscription, Confiscation, and Abolitionism, and the unflinching advocate of Freedom of Speech, the Vote by Ballot, Habeas Corpus, Trial by Jury, Freedom of the Press, and State Rights, Conservative in its policy, it is at war with fanaticism in every form, as tending to social disorganization, and the destruction of Civil and Religious Liberty.

The Business Department is carried on with that strict attention to all its details, without which no paper can expect to succeed, no matter how liberally supported, or how ably conducted; and all the business transactions of the establishment are conducted on a cash basis.
