Shirt against the New YoRx HERALD; or,
rather, they have attacked MS with the ferocious
desperston Of a gang a freebooters driven into
corner, blind and reckless in their impotent
rage. We hesitated between the expedient OF
their humiliation and the alternative OF turning
them quietly over to their special rival In the
newspaper business. Their fate is clear enough
in the hands of the latter. but passing WORD
or two OF exhortation and discipline may be
beneficial to our philosophers and satisfactory
~ our readers.
The immediate provocation TO this dreadful
growing, barking, swapping and snarling Of
the Tribune philosophers, is charged to the
complimentary illusions to the New YORK
HERALD at the Scandinavian meeting the other
night by Mr. Christensen, gentleman who
has proved himself q man Of sound discrimina-
ton judgment and taste. But the shocking
bad temper Of cur philosophers betrays an
accumulation Of grievances not set down
in the Indictment The objectionable offence
of the New YORK HERALD is it's unparalleled
prosperity. 1T has increased, is increasing"
and our philosophers have said, over and over
again, that lit ought to be diminished" Pub
lie opinion is against them, to be snre. The
peculiar notions of our Tribune philosophers
are generally considered distasteful, disor-
ganizipg, revolutionary, reasonable and inidel;
the fact. may seem to Greeley Co., the vast
body Of the reading public, within the country
and without the country, despise them. their
abominable doctrines, and their disciples,
while at the same time, all over the United
States, and all over the world, the New YORK
HERALD is the paper of the people. Our
advertising patronage and our daily issue
ranging from forty eight to fifty thousand
copies daily, and only prevented from being one
hundred thousand from the inability of any
machinery that human ingenuity has thus far in
vented to do the work in seasons the salts
factory and conclusive answer we have to make
to the general TRADE of our ferociOus philosO-
piers The simple fact that the best support
from an intelligent community is sure to be /,
given to the best newspaper renders the HERALD
impregnable to the malice Of it's enemies. Daily
circulation. fifty thousand! Il
The particular assault Of our Fourierite
philosophers upon Mr.. Bennett just now
is in keeping with the sort Of manly courage
and decency which have ever charac-
terized the Tribune. Mr.. Bennett is now alb
sent in Europe. and if we recollect Alright, the
Tribune has on several previous occasions
availed itself of his absence for an exhibition of
its intrepidity. Greeley is bold man at long
distance, while face to face he disarms hostility
from his lack lustre expression and appear
ance Of dirt and imbecility. In Congress he
covered like spaniel before the crossexami-
nation Of indignant members; but safely back
in New York, he was fearless as lion and fierce
as q tiger. Daily tissue of the HERALD, fifty
thousand!
What is to he the fate Of the Tribune we can
not divine It's Fourierism and Atheism
its red republicanism for France, and its law
and order for Cuba, have only excited public
contempt. Its late discovery that the black
man is . negro comes too late. It's abuse Of
the South does not appear to pay. Perhaps if
Greeley we're to make the tour Of the South
ern States he would learn something to
his advantage. In the disguise Of decency
he would be safe. He would be safe as an at
taehs Of the HERALD; and with a full recantation
Of his denominations. with a promise to return
from the error of his ways, to become civilized,
to become honest, to become a good citizen, to
cease conniving with and encouraging traitors,
to cease his vain efforts to overthrow the laws
Of the land and the society Of civilized men,
with view of introducing the epoch Of wo-
mans rights negro emancipation, equality and
amalgamation, Fonrierism, infdelity and
anarchy-with promise to give up Sieve
gammonism, hypocrisy, cant. humbug, claptrap,
twaddle, and moonshine, We may even consent
to let him 60 upon his good behavior. Daily
edition of the HERALD, fifty thousand
The policy Of the HERALD is to live
down the abuse Of our philosophers by its su-
periority as newspaper. and by its fidelity to
the Union, to the principles of common sense,
honesty and deceacy, by its adhesion to the
usages Of civilized society and Christianity,
and by its special antagonism to that oficious
Seward organ. the friendship of which was 80
disastrous to the Presidential aspirations Of
General Scott. Daily rcquisition upon the
HERALD, fifty thousand!

sophers. Let them look to their special rival
The same class of patronage will hardly suffice
for both the elder and the younger Seward
organ. As the one gains the other must lose:
but why should the losing party fall upon US?
Is the HERALD's prosperity also responsible?
So, then let it be. We bow to the will Of the
people. The daily issue Of the HERALD-while
1.-The cry is still they come''-is fifty thousand
We think this will do.
