 §21. Henry Jarvis Raymond—"The New York Times". XXI. Newspapers, 1775–1860. Vol. 16. Early National ...
Henry Jarvis Raymond, who began his journalistic career on the Tribune and gained further experience in editing the respectable, old-fashioned, political Courier and Enquirer, perceived that there was an opening for a type of newspaper which should stand midway between Greeley, the moralist and reformer, and Bennett, the cynical, non-moral news-monger.
In his first issue Raymond announced his purpose to write in temperate and measured language and to get into a passion as rarely as possible.
Raymond’s contribution to journalism, then, was not the introduction of revolutionizing innovations in any department of the profession but a general improving and refining of its tone, a balancing of its parts, sensitizing it to discreet and cultivated popular taste.

Henry Jarvis Raymond, the founder and first editor of The New York Times, was "the prophet and progenitor of the best of modern journalism." Yet, more than a century after his death, Raymond is largely unknown and even ignored by the newspaper he created.
Henry Jarvis Raymond founded The New York Times in 1851 and was the paper's editor for its first 18 years.
While The Times "foundered" financially after Raymond's death and suffered from the absence of his editorial guidance and leadership, it is clear he set and maintained for the paper's first 18 years the enviable tone and lofty standards that have distinguished The Times under the ownership of Adolph Ochs and the dynasty he established.

Raymond in those early years succinctly stated his philosophy of responsible journalism, which was diametrically opposed to theirs: "Get all the news; never indulge in personalities; treat all men civilly; put all your strength into your work, and remember that a daily newspaper should be an accurate reflection of the world as it is."
Raymond was a learned man in a field that thus far had attracted just a handful of college graduates.
Raymond accepted their guidance more often than not, but it was the guidance of older, experienced men who thought along the same conservative lines he did.

 Bold Type: Excerpt by Ben Macintyre
Senator, congressman, political conscience, and stalwart moral voice of the age, Raymond had succumbed to "an attack of apoplexy" at the age of forty-nine and his passing was the occasion for some of the most solemn adulation ever printed.
Appropriating the name of such a man would be a rich and satisfying irony, not least because Worth, an avid collector of underworld gossip, may have known that the great moral arbiter of the age had himself led a double life of which his readers and admirers possessed not an inkling.
On the voyage to England he adopted this impressive alias (replacing Jarvis with Judson, in memory of the name he used for the Boston robbery) and kept it for the rest of his life.

 John Brown at Harpers Ferry: A Contemporary Analysis
Henry Jarvis Raymond, the editor of the Times when the affair at Harpers Ferry took place, while politically affiliated with Thurlow Weed and William H. Seward, was rapidly gaining a reputation in both the political and journalistic worlds for his editorial independence.
Raymond's newspaper was conspicuously conservative in the journalistic New York of Horace Greeley's Tribune and James Gordon Bennett's Herald.
Because of the growth in circulation and prestige which the Times had gained in the eight years from its precarious inception in 1851 to the Brown raid in 1859, the position taken by its editors can safely be assumed as representative of a considerable number of Northern conservatives.

Henry inherited a troubled kingdom: London and most of the southeast was in the hands of the French Dauphin Louis and the northern regions were under control of rebellious barons - only the midland and southwest were loyal to the boy king.
The barons, however, soon sided with Henry (their quarrel was with his father, not him), and the old Marshall expelled the French Dauphin from English soil by 1217.
