THE PRESIDENTIAL YEAR.
" THE LEADING AMERICAN NEWS
PAPER."
THE NEW YORK
TRIBUNE
FOR 1880.
During the coining I'residential year The Tribune
will be a more effective agency than ever for telling
the news best worth knowing, and for enforcing
sound polities. From the day the war closed it lias
been most anxious for an end of sectional strife.
But it Haw two years ago, and was the first persist
ently to Proclaim the new danger to the country
from tiie revived alliance of the Solid South and
Tammany Ilall. Against that danger it soughtto
rally the old party of Freedom and the Union, it
bt gan by demanding the abandonment of personal
dislikes, and set the example, it called for an end
to attacks upon each other instead of the enemy;
and for the heartiest agreement upon whatever tit
candidates the majority should put up against the
common foe. Since then tin: tide of disaster has
been turned back; every doubtful state has been
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 seen moßt of the
struggle. It will faithfully portray the varnlng
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,
ana surest to make a good President. Rut 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 by the Solid South
and Tammany Hall.
The Tribune is now spending much labo and
money than ever before to hold the distinction it has
enjoyed of the large/it circulation among the bent
pcojj]e. it secured, and meaus to retain it by be
omingthe medium of the best tliwbght and the
oice of the best conscience of the time, by keeping
.breast of the highest progress, favoring the freces
tiscussions, tieuring all siiles, appealing always to
he best intelligence and the purest morality, and re
using to carter to the tastes of the vile or thf? prgju
iices of the ignorant.
SPECIAL FEATURES.
The distinctive features of The Tribune are known
to everybody. It gives all the news. It lias the
•est correspondents, and retains them from year to
rear. It is the only paper that maintains a special
telegraphic wire of its own between its ollico and
vVasiiingtori. Its scientific, literary, artistic and ro
tigious intelligence is the fullest. Its book reviews
ire the best, its commercial and financial nc.'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 Serai-Weekly in the
country, having four times the circulation of any
other in New York. It is especially adapted to the
large class of intelligent, profession:) 1 or business
readers too far from New York to depend on our
papers for the daily news, who nevertheless want
the editorials, correspondence, book icviews, scien
tltic matter, 4 lectures, literary miscellaney, etc,, for
which The Tribune is famous. Like The Weekly
it contains sixteen pages, and is in convenient form
1 for binding,
THE WEEKLY TRIBUNE
i remains the great favorite of our 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 United
States. It revises and condenses all the news of the
week into more readable shape. Its agricultural du
partincnt is more carefully conducted than ever, and
it lias 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 tlie 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, 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
tind it better than ever. Increasing patronage and
faeilitias enable us to reduce the rates to tiie lowest
point we have ever touched, and to otier the most
amazing premiums yet given, as follows:
