THE NEW YORK TRIBUNE.

The Mem York Tribune comes to US greatly en-.
lsrgej, in quarto form, with 4s instead of %
columns This change, it says, will cost SEQ 600,
but it is demanded ia order to accommodate adj
vertisers, the receipts from whom during the last
year, exceed those of ls42, some $50 600 Nine
years ago the first number of the Tribune was
presented to the public, with list of not more
than 1000 subscribers. The following extract
from an editorial in that paper will give some
idea of publishing newspapers in New York:
"Our present regular issue is 1880 copies Of
our Daily, 1850 of our Semi Weekly, and 3d.
100 Of our Weekly edition, beside growing
European and very large though unsteady Cal
ifornia edition. Our first weeks business footed
up, expenses s525, receipts S92 our last weeks
aggregates were, expenses s., 446, receipts $3.50
balance on the right side, 1854. 1t is not always
80 large as this, but it has been larger, and is
generally one that we have no reason to COM
plain Off
We differ in our views Of public measures gen
orally from the Tribune; nor do we think it al
ways adopts the best mode of advocating the
cause Of Human Rights but, it is the ablest, most
instructive, and most independent daily paper Of
the Party to which it belongs-so far as we have
any acquaintance with the Press of that organi-
zation.
The Daily Tribune, notwithstanding its enlarge
ment, continues to be published at IS year, or
1917 cents week.

We ask the People of the free States, what
can be expected of Congress subjected constant
ly to such influences As an accommodation to
certain Wing and Democratic gentlemen who
are ambitious for Presidential honors, and to pro-
mote the views Of certain members of Congress
anxious for future Presidential favOrs, the great
struggle for Freedom in the Territories, in which
the People Of the free States have been so deeply
and generally engaged for the last three years is
to be decided adversely to their will, sOlemnly
AMI repeatedly declared
Now, we predict with undOubting confidence,
that not one Of the Presidential sspirants through
whose efforts the Jeffersonian policy Of Slavery
Restriction has suffered detrimeEt, will ever
reach the prize for which he has bowed to. the
behests of the Slave Power, and consented to
hazard the destinies Of the millions who are to
people the vast Territories Of this Union.

MIA he declares that he attaches very little inn
portance to a Compromise Committee, not sup
posing it probable that it viii do any good but
he is disposed to please those who are anxious for
the organization Of such a committee. Very
well since his mind is so equally balanced, sup
pose he show little courtesy to the large and
respectable minority who are opposed TO any arti-
flee or expedient which must prevent Senators
from voting their real sentiments And since
his object is to facilitate public business, suppose
he relinquish the attempt to force measure
which he now knows must delay public business
We are sorry to see Mr.. Whitcomb of Indiana
recording his vote in favor of this Compromise
Committee. He is practical man-and we know
not what motive, except willingness to crafty
General Cass could have induced him to support
a measure so well calculated to embarrass action
on a question which, We are confident, he is
anxious to have settled with the least possible
delay.
Mr. FoOte, the protector of the Committee, must
now see, we are sure, the inexpediency of per-
sisting in the measure. In urging it, he has
shown good temper, and great deal of frmness,
and he has succeeded in obtaining vote on his
proposition-but that vote must have convinced
him that no good can be expected from Commit
tee of Compromise, raised in opposition to the
will of nearly one-hslf of the Senate, and of all
the Senators from the free States, except five.
Why not relinquish the project, and be content
to pursue his object by the ordinary methods of
legislation, meeting upon equal terms the oppo-
nents OF his views7 Certainly, this would be
more in accordance with the frankness and bold
ness which mark his proceedings generally.
Meantime the country will watch the acts and
votes of every leading man Of the Senate in this
extraordinary attempt to constitute what may
properly be styled Log Rolling COMMITTEE

THE SELF.CONSTITUTED GUARDIAN OF THE
DEMOCRACY OF NEW YORK.

The Washington Union has resumed its super
intendenoe of the New York Democracy. u
reads out Of the party the Nov York EUeHing Post,
the old long -establishsd, most able advocate of
Democratic Principles, and commends to the pa
tronage Of all genuine Democrats the Ns'o York
Globe, paper of recent date, which has changed
proprietors and editors thrice, and principles
twice, in the course Of one year, "The Post"
it says, is fanatical factious SECTIONAL Free
SOiler, and an Abolitionist'-"it narrow politics
are execrable1
And while it undertakes to regulate the Demo-
cratic press of New York, with equal modesty it
assumes to determine what is Democracy, and
who are Democrats
"New York; it says, {" has been too long i'm
INJURED in dim eclipse. The course of one Of her
avorite and favored sons E Star of the Morning
how art thou fallen, never to rise again y has
essentially contributed with the fanatics of the
State, to paralyze the Republican party, and to
destroy the moral force and the political power
of the largest State in the Union. But one Dea0-
erat IS returned 10 Congress out Of her whoe repre-
SeuatioH Of ttuty-foui What singuler phe-
nomenon! But the Democracy of New York
must now see that this lamentable falling off is
owing to the disappointed ambition and vndietiue
passions Of her own favored SON
Seeing their error, we trust the good and true
men of the State will now exert themselves TO
correct it.
This same paper, 'thst refuses to recognise the
New York EUeniag Post, Preston King Martin
Van Buren,, as Democrats, and neglec.s no occasion
to vlify them, although it knows that they are all
distinguished supporters Of every distinctive
principle and measure of Democracy, never wea-
ries in its praise of Mr. Webster, who abhors
Democratic policy, and in his late speech, which
has won for him the profound appreciation of the
Union went out of his way to denounce and
damage, as far as he could, the Democratic party
Daniel Webster, with all his Whiggery, is ac-
ceptable to the Union, because he goes against
positive law to prohibit the extension of slavery
while Martin Van Buren,, Preston King, and the
Mem York Eueamg Post, with all their unques-
toned Democracy, are execrable, because they
are in favor Of sach law OF course, the Union
is not sectional Oh, no it is imbued with a
lovely spirit of nationality And it is Demo-
cratic toO-the first and great article in its creed
being Absolute Fealty to Slavery!
We have no doubt that its discreet and modest
counsels to the New York Democracy will be APP
preciated as they deserve.

we have read on Builders Analogy seem to us tho
