The approach of the season when Wash
ington epicures can enjoy the luxury of
'•planked shad" reminds the correspond
of the St. Louis Globe-Democrat of the fol
lowing story about Daniel Webster:
"Webster was an artist in this line and
prided himself greatly upon his gifts. His
only rival was an aged slave, a character
on the river, called Bam. There were
those who declared that Sam was the only
one who knew how to cook planked shad,
and others protested that the great states
man was supreme. On sunny spring days,
when parties of gentlemen weutdownthe
river to watch the flsh nailed to their
boards, sizzling and browning before the
blaze of an outdoor fire, it was arranged
to have a trial for championship between
old Sam and Mr. Webster. Each contest
ant was well backed, and the lights of
those early political days were all there.
First Sam split the shad, seasoned them
as he knew would most nearly suit Mr.
Webster's taste, and laid them before the
orator done to a turn, 'Really, Sam, this
is the best planked shad I have overeaten,'
quoth Daniel; and applause rung from
Sam's adhearents. Next Webster laid
as'de his toga and hovered around the Are.
ki if and salt box in hand, watching the
shad that he had prepared in the way he
knew would best suit Sam's taste. Sam
ate three mouthfcls rapturously, and ex
claimed, 'Fore God, Mr. Webster, I nebei
liab tasted plunked shad before!' Webstei
yielded gracefully the palm to Sam, out
done by him in compliments as well as
cooking."
1 hurlow Weed thus closed his scmi
cntennial editorial article in the Album
Journal of last o\ e.iing :
' It is not the man so much as the cause
that should be considered in the seiectioi
of a candidate for President. The par: A
ought not to be demoralized by exciting
and acrimonious conflicts about candid
dates. The welfare of our country re
quires the election of a Republican Presi
dent. The duty of Republicans and their
delegates to the National Convention is
to reach a nomination by methods and in
a spirit that will secure a united, zeal on."
and hearty support of their nominee,
whether it be Grant, Elaine, Sherman
Washburn, Edmunds. Fish. Evans, W'in
dom or Booth."
The way in which ex-Senator Chris
tiaucy met his young wife is desetibec
thus by the Washington correspondent o
the St. Louis Globe-Democrat: "Mi.ssLug
enbeel lived in the upper story of a bonrcl
i;:g-house with her father and mother, a d
the Senator had the apartments on the
ground floor. His sou Ralph, coming
home from college for the ( hristtnas hoi
idays, in some way made the acquaintance
of the little blonde, lie escorted her t
theatres, took early walks to the T e s
ury with her always happened around a
she walked home, and casually one even
iug in the vestibule introduced his fat lie
who .happened to come up. The young
man went back to college, ami in two
weeks was astounded by reading his atli
or's nuptials."
Chief Justice Ryan of the Wiscons u
Court of appeals, it is said, is in perfect
physical health, but imagines that lie is
hopelessly ill. and ail efforts to persuade
him out of his delusion have failed, lie
was appointed to write a decision in a
test case involving the vaiidity of option
contracts, and as it will affect the cut! e
system of the grain trade in the State, ii
is awaited with great anxiety; hut the
judge refuses to work, and Ids brothei
judges of the Court of Appeals .tie reluc

THE NEW YORK
[TRIBUNE
FOR 1830.
Daring the coming Pn sljentlnl year The Tribune
wiil be u snore elleisiive agency than ever for telling
the now* best worth knowing, and for enforcing
sound polities-. From the day tie- war closed it has
been luoMt antdeus for an end i f sectional strife.
Hut It save two years ago, and was the first persist
etitiy t;> Proclaim this new danger to the country
from the revived all nine.'- of tie Solid South and
Tammany Hull. Against that danger it sought to
rally the old party of Freedom and the Union it
began by demanding the abandonment of persona.
dislike- 1 , urivl sol the example. It called for an olid
to attack* upcu each oilier instead of the enemy ;
and for the heartiest agreement upon whatevro fit
candidates the majority should put up against the
common foe. Hince then the tide of disaster has
been turned back; every doubtful state has beta
won, and the omens for National victory were never
more cheering.
THE TRIBUNE'S POSITION.
Of The Tribune's share in ail this, those speak
nio>t enthusiastically who have seen most of the
struggle. It will faithfully portray the earning
phases of the campaign now beginning. It will
earnestly strive that the party of Freedom, Unioa
and Public Faith may select the man surest to win,
and surest to make a good President. Hut in t his
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 Uie Solid South
and Tammany Hall.
The Tribune is now spending much iabo and
money than ever before to hold tho distinction it has
enjoyed of Me large xt circulation among the bent
jieojije. It secured, and means to retain it by he
coming the medium of the best thought and the
voice of the best conscience of the time, by keeping
abreast of the highest progress, favoring the freees
discussions, bearing 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.
tSJ'KCIAL FEATURES.
The distinctive features of The Tribune are 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 wi • of its own between its ottlce and
Washington. 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 its ar
rangement the most systematic.
THE SEMI-WEEKLY" TRIBUN
is by far the most successful Semi-Weekly in the
country, having fonr times the circulation 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
tific matter, lectures, literary misecllaiiev, 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 our substantial country
population, and litis the largest circulation of any
Weekly issued from the otlieu 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 de
purtmcnt is more carefully conducted than ever, and
it it.is always been considered tiie best. Its market
reports are the oilieial 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, riciiou ami
the humors of the day are till abundantly supplied.
I'he verdict of the tens of thousand old readers who
have returned to it during the past year that they
find it better than ever, increasing patronage and
facilities enable us to reduce the rates to the lowest
point we have ever tu lied, and to oiler the must
uuia/ing premiums yet given, as follows :
