The New York herald. [volume] (New York [N.Y.]) 1840-1920, 1848-02-10

On the subject of the circulation Of the Herald
and Tribune, and the discussion which grew ont
of the post Office printing which, in consequence
OF our larger circulation, has been taken from
the Tribune and given to this journal, we find
that Greeley & McErath have screwed them.
selves up to the sticking point, and published the
following in their paper of yesterday
The Herald has skulked, We knew 1t would, from

buyers than 1t has.-1ribune
In reply to this we say, we dare meet their pro-
position, and zoe hereby accept it, and ready
to enter into the investigation as soon as
they please-say to-day. On our part, We
have appointed Mr.. DANIEL II. MEeIE, of the
house of Messrs. Persse s. Brooks, No. 60
Nassau street, as an impartial person, accord
ing to their definition, to enter into this
investigation; and we now request the Tribune
to appoint another impartial person on their side,
and commence the investigation Immediately.
We promise that every facility shall be given on
our part in this matter, and that we shall agree
to all the propositions respecting the circulation
of the two journals; and if lose, chserfuly pay
orer the too hundred dollars to the tico orphan
asylums in this city.
In accepting this proposition, we have no fears
for the result. 1t has been made an object of &C.
cusaton against the Herald by many of our con-
temporaries, that its circulation was principal
ly among the grog shops, and other low places
about town. Before this investigation shall
have been terminated, we shall show that the
circSation of the Herald is much larger in the
respectable and intelligent wards of this city,
than that of the Tribune, or any other journal
now published. Take, for instance, the ff-
teenth ward, the principal whig ward, and in
habited by our most ealthy and respectable mer-
chants IN this city; our circulation in that ward
we shall show to be far before that of the Tri.
bune. The same may be said of the first and
third wards, the latter being the very ward which
is represented by one of the proprietors of that
paper In the common council. We shall also
show that the circulation of the Herald out of
town, and throughout the country, is far beyond
that ofthe Tribune, or pay the penalty according
to the terms of the bet-two hundred dollars.
To our amiable Fourierite contemporary, we,
therefore, say, in the language OF the law-pro-
coed.

storm Of denunciation and condemnation which we
