False again. " Mr. Greeley" did once speak TO
a meeting of printers in Tammany Hall, when
there was some difficulty in the trade; but he
said nothing about politics, nor either of the
Brookses-dd not know that anything was to be
said and had no part nor lot in any connection Of
that meeting with Mr. Brooks's prospects. He
supported and voted for Brooks at the election
then pending.

- Here are two falsehoods-one direct, the
other nferential--so dovetailed together that we
have to deal with them as

Otter repeated that many people doubtless BY this
time suppose it truth. Somebody in The Post
certainly not Mr.. Bryant-deliberately and with
circumstance alleged that the Editor of THE
TRIBUNE had offered to divide the New Territories
surrendering half to Slavery TO secure the other
half to Freedom. This was very gross and
very damaging libel, and we had no other course
but to pronounce itrsuch; we aid so emphatically
and stopped it. Nobody however, attempted TO
Justify the cbarge-nobOdy could justify it. Yet
no one rebukes the Observation-Disclosures assal him
who refuses TO rest under the calumny. Is this
fair
As to Mr.. Raymond, The Ezprssss charge is
founded on passage in private letter, made
public not by THE TRIBUNE, but by The Times
If &" such lie New-York journalism" it is not our
fault, but anOther's But The Express quotes this
"a If from our columns, and as an illustration Of
our Editorial manner! This is very BroOkslke
and dishonest.
Now for specimen Of the habitual, skulking'
uuderhand calumnes which we have for fourteen
years borne from The Express. Here is an allu-
sion to US in speaking of " Free-Love:"
"THE TRIBUNE cones out against it. Eth, Brute!
But says The Herald:

Now there is falsehood insinuated in the first
sentence here quoted. TIE TRIBUNE does not
now come out" against the Gree Love" theo
rists. 1t has always been against them-openly,
earnestly, and with all the vigor it possessed 1t
has exposed and cOmbated their sophistries in
column after column for more than ten years past,
fought against Divorce, urged the social necessity
for Iudissoluble Marriage, and advocated more
stringent legislation against Seduction and Adulte

way. and earlier, than any other journal in this
city Yet The Express, with its "Et tn, Brute
