TRI B U N E
FOR 1S().
During the coining Presidential year The Trihune
i will be a more efi'ective agency than ever lor telling
! the news best w. rth knowing, and for enforcing
j sound politics. From the day the war closed it has
' been most anxious for an end of sectional strife,
j But it saw two years ago, and was the first' persist.
I ently to Proclaim the new danger to the country
j from the revived alliance of the Solid South and
! Tammany Hall. Against that danger it sought to
rally the old party of Freedom and the Union. It
\ beg'an by demanding the abandonment of personal
; dislikes, and set the example. It culled for an end
to attacks upon each other Instead of the enemy;
and for the heartiest agreement upon whatever lit
; candidates the majority should put up against Un
common foe. Since then the tide of disaster has
| been turned back; every doubtful state has been
i won, and the omens for National victory were never
more cheering.
Til 15 TRIBUNE'S POSITION.
I Of The Tribune's share in all this, those speak
! most enthusiastically who have seen most of the
struggle. It will faithfully portray the varning
phases of the campaign now beginning. It will
earnestly strive that the party of Freedom, Union
and Public Faith may select the man surest to win,
and surest to make a good President. But in this
crisis it can conceive of no nomination this party
could make that would not be preferable to the best
that could possibly be supported hy the Solid South
i and Tammany Hall.
The Tribune is now spending much labor and
5 money than ever before to hold the distinction it has
enjoyed of the largest circulation among the bent
I people, it secured, and means to retain it, hy he
coming, the medium of the best thought and the
voice of the best conscience of the lime, by keeping
abreast of the highest progress, favoring the frecent
discussions, bearing all sUles, appealing always to
the best intelligence ami the purest morality, and re
fusing to carter to the tastes of the vile or the preju
dices of tlie ignorant.
SPECIAL FEATURES.
The distinctive features of The Tribune are known
to everybody. It gives ail the news. It has the
best correspondent*, ami retains them from year to
year, It is the only paper that maintains a special
telegraphic wire of its own between its otiice and
Washington. Its scientific, literary, artistic and re
ligious intelligence is the fullest. Its book reviews
j are the best. Its commercial and financial nr-s is
) the most exact Its type is the largest; and its ar-
I rangement the most systematic.
THE SEMI-WEEKLY TUIIU'N
I is by far the most successful Semi-Weekly in the
| country, having four times the circulation of any
i other in Xew York. It is especially adapted to the
; large class of intelligent, professional or business
i readers too far from Xew York to depend on our
papers for tlie daily news, who nevertheless want
the editorials, correspondence, hook reviews, scien
tific matter, lectures, literary miseellancy, etc,, for
which The Tribune is famous, i.ike The Weekly
! it contains sixteen pages, and is in convenient form
. for binding,
THE WEEKLY TltllU'XK
remains the great favorite of our-substantial country
population, and lias the largest circulation of any
Weekly issued from the ouicc of a Uailv paper in
New York, or, so far as we know, in the I nited
> States, it revises and condenses all the news of the
week into more readable shape. Its agricultural de
partment is more'carefully conducted than ever, and
it has always been considered the besh Its market
■ reports arc the official standard for tin Dairymen's
Association, and have long been recognised author
ity on cattle, grain and general country produce.
There are special department's for the young and for
household interests; the new handiwork department
already extremely popular, gives unusually accurate
and comprehensive instructions in knitting, crochet
ing, and kiudrid subjects: while poetry, fiction and
the humors of the day are all abundantly supplied.
The verdict of the tens of thousand old readers who
have returned to it during the past year is that they
find it belter titan ever. Increasing, patronage and
facilitias enable us to reduce the rates to tlie. lowest
point we have ever touched, and to otier the most
.unu/.ittg premiums yet given, as follows :
