The resignation of Postmaster-General

shall name a man whose selection will
command public confidence in conduct of
the Star Route cases. Mr. Brewster's
nomination would do this; the name of
a man whose position and association
are in doubt on this matter will very
seriously imperil existing public confi

try with his bill to pay the expenses in

stricken his countrymen accepted him
and his family as a charge upon them.
In an able address in Philadelphia, Mon
day evening, Judge Agnew gave Prohib
itionists some excellent advice on the
subject of running for public office inde
pendent candidates of their own. The
annually recurring dumb show of a sepa
rate Prohibition ticket serves to magnify
and emphasize the weakness of that party,
rather than increase its strength. As a
large number of genuine Prohibitionists
refuse to throw away their votes on dis
tinctly Prohibibition candidates who have
no chance of election, the impression is
conveyed that the party is weaker thau it
actually is. The great interests of the
country are involved in the contests of
the great National parties, and a single
issue apart from these is not sufficient to
sustain a separate organization so as to
enable it to command seccess. The cause
of the Prohibitionists,, argued Judge Ag
new, like that of the old Abolitionists, is
a most righteous one, but neither of them
was ever able to carry a single county by
independent action. Judge Agnew cited
cases where the Prohibitionists, by insist
ing on their separate ticket, had defeated
well known temperance men on one of the
regular party tickets whom their votes
might have elected, and put in office men
of billious habits, whom they might have
defeated, AS an old time Whig, Judge
Agnew recalled and bewailed the defeat
of Ilenry Clay in 1844 through the Liberty
party of New York state voting for Jas.
(4. Birney, and thereby electing a pro
nounced and zealous slavery propagrnd
istin the person of James K. Polk, and
giving us in consequence the Mexican
War and the new slave state of Texas.
Judge Agnew advocated independent
scratching rather than any independent
ticket, and his advice 011 independent
movements generally is applicable to oth
t cr thau Prohibitionists.

The JYew York Tribune I
"The Leading American Newspaper."
During the year 1882 THE TRIBUNE hopes to em
ploy with increasing success the work and the
methods which have won for it so large a measure
of popular approval. It has attained, and means
never to lose the high standard of success which
was aimed at by its founder the largest circulation
among the best people. So large a circulation and
one so widely distributed over the entire territory
of the Nation has never been attained by any other
newspaper in the United States. We accept this
fact as the verdict of the American people upon the
conduct and character of the TRIBUNE. The po
sition it occupies could never have been gained nor
retained but by pre-eminent merits as a newspaper
as an organ of sound opinion and an advocate of
just public measures.
ITI short the TRIBUNE will as heretofore continue
to be the medium of the best thought and the voice
of the best conscience of the time; will keep abreast
of the highest progress,favor the freest discussion,
hear all sides, appeal always to the most enlighten
ed intelligence and the purest morality, and refuse
peremptorily to cater to the tastes of the vile or the
prejud.ces of the ignorant.
The well-known special features of the TRIBUNE
will be carefully maintained. Its Agricultural De
partment will remain as it is, the fullest and best.
The Household and Young Folks' Departments,the
literary, scientific and religious features, the stand
ard market reports will all be kept up and extend
ed as opportunity may serve.
VALUABLE PREMIUMS.—The TTIBUNE has
never been equaled by any other paper in the per
manent and substantial value of its premiums and
the extraordinary liberality of the terms upon which
it has offered them to the oublic. We take pleas
