THE LEA DIXO AMERICAN NEWS PAPER THE NEW YORK TRIBUNE FOR 1880. During the coming Presidential year The Tribune will be a more effective agency than ever for telling j the news best worth knowing, and for enforcing sound politics. From the day the war closed it has been most anxious for an end of sectional strife. But it saw two years ago, and was the first persist i ently to Proclaim the new danger to the country ! 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 ' began by demanding the abandonment of personal dislikes, and set the example. It called for an end I to attacks upon each other instead of the enemy; ' and for the heartiest agreement upon whatever lit j candidates the majority should put up against the ! common foe. Since then the tide of disaster has been turned back; every doubtful state has been 1 won, and the omens for National victory were never more cheering. THE TRIBUNE'S POSITION. Of The Tribune's share in all this, those speak | most enthusiastically who have sen most of the i struggle. It will faithfully portray the varning | phases o# the campaign now beginning. It will J earnestly strive that the party of Freedom, Union and Public Faith may select the man surest to win, j and surest to make a good President. But in this j crisis it can conceive of no nomination this party i could make that would not be preferable to the best i that could possibly be supported by the Solid South j and Tammany Hall. The Tribune is now spending much labor and j money than ever before to hold the distinction it has i enjoyed of the largent circulation among the bent I people. It secured, and means to retain it, by be coining the medium of the bent thought and the voice of the best conscience of the time, by keeping abreast of tile highest progress, favoring the freeest discussions, hearing all sides, appealing always to the best intelligence and the purest morality, and re fusing to carter to the tastes of the vile or the preju dices of the ignorant. SPECIAL FEATURES. The distinctive features of The Tribune arc known to everybody. It gives all the news, it lias the best correspondents, and retains them from year to year, it is the only paper that maintains a special telegraphic wire of its own between its office and Washington. Its scientific, literary, artistic and re ligious intelligence is the fullest. Its book reviews are the best, its commercial and financial ne*"s is the most exact Its type is the largest; and us ar rangement the most systematic. THE SEMI-WEEKLY TRIBUN is by far the most successful Semi-Weekly in the country, having four times the cireulat'on of any other in New York. It is especially adapted to the large class of intelligent, professional or business readers too far from New York to depend on our papers for the daily news, who nevertheless want the editorials, correspondence, book reviews, scien tilic matter, lectures, literary miseellaney, etc,, for which The Tribune is famous. Like The Weekly it contains sixteen pages, and is in convenient form for binding, THE WEEKLY TRIBUNE remains the great favorite of otir substantial country population, and lias the largest circulation of any Weekly issued from the office of a Daily 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 partmcnt is more carefully conducted than ever, and it has always been considered the best. Its market reports are the official standard for the Dairymen's Association, and have long been recognized author ity on cattle, grain and general country produce. There are special departments 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 kindrid subjects; while poetry, liction 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 better than ever.
