as they habitually are in the only paper which,
prior to The Tribune's undertaking 1t, protested
TO report them fully. We have of course been com
PEELED TO condense and curta other matter Of
public interest, and to defer many articles, some
of which appear on the outside of this paper BY
crowding full reports Of evening meetings INTO the
next mornings paper--sometlfnes IN second
edition-we of course run the risk Of sending the
same articles to some readers twice over, whllc
Others do not receive them at ALL Our iriends
who prefer Political and Miscellaneous reading
will make allowance for the urgency Of the case,
beng assured that their claims shall be fully
regarded
II Our friend who suggests that at the late
Anniversaries a great deal more aversion and
dread was manifested toward the Pope than
the Devil, while he thinks the latter parsonage
considerably more repete with vitality II not with
venom, and therefore deserving of the more bel
ligcrcnt regard at these unscctarlan assemblages,
is probably aware that we quite agree with him
in this opinion. He must also be aware, how
ever, that not Catholics alone have reason to COM
PLAIN of the unccrcmonlous posltlvencss with
which they are denounced as nh-Chrstaln, lnh-
del at heart, opposed to vital religion &c. &c at
these meetings We do not think any good
would be effected by newspaper controversy on
The subject, and presume that the mass OF those
SO harshly Judged would not care TO see any Tor
nal rcbuttcr introduced IN their behalf. Bad taste
and even i'll feeling are best opposed by silence
Our rule in this is as stated in the case of Bishop
Hughes's Lecture--to report whatever we deem
worthy of reporting-to give 1t TO our readers as
the authors sentiments, not ours, and leave 1t 10
be controverted as it was uttered when proper
occasion presents itself. A different course would
create more bitterness than would be allaycd by it.

If Van should undertake, in his peculiar fash
