P 0 R THE PRESIDENTIAL YEAR.
! 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. Increasing patronage and
facilities enable us to reduce the rates to the lowest
point we have ever touched, and to otter the most
amazing premiums yet.given, as follows;
