In the few lines above given will, as we think,

century, and not onl, it's history, but the phi
losophy Of its history Believing such to be the

merced by itself and has from that time to this
carefully avoided giving as sny chance for re-

from il a single word. We have tried The Post

than admit the truth-as il would have been
forced TO dot has permitted the falsehood of
its own statements and those of It's friend, Mr..
Gouge, TO be exposed without offering word
in self defense. So too with The Boston Post,

favor among the mcnopolists of Manchester IT

as if the loss of speech were necessary conse

With our contemporary of The Era it will We
hope be otherwise; and we leave him in
the full belief that he will plain answer make to
all the questions now submitted, while we pro-

prove better than the first, whose weakness we

TO expose. This duty We must, however, post

Government be exerted in the defense and

measurable Territories Of the plains be peoped
by those " no adhere to the principles Of the
Declaration-to the principles embodied in the
Con,ttuton--or shall they be peOpled BY those
who allow q selfish interest to blind them to the
baIbarous and corruptipg influences Of an uu-
uitigated despotisml This ia the single, i'm
mediate, pregnant issue We are called on to de-
eide.
The American people at this day stand in pre-
cisely the same relation TO the lew Territories
which the il fathers stood in respecting the whole
country. They must determine their characte<
for centuries to come. They must make them
free nations, or yield them up forever No
compromise is possible II is the settled policy
Of the South to convert the Federal power into
a supple instrument of Slavery; and unless that
policy be resisted at once, and to the death, it
will triumph. The passage Of the infamous Ne-
braska bill has opened the whole interior of the
continent to a system which is equally at war
with the industrial interests, the democratic
professions, and the Christian tenets of the ia
ton. An area of land as large as the most pow
erful Empire on The globe. capable of being
formed into dozen new States has been given
up 10 the possession of as vicious form of go
ciety az was ever deyised-has been treacb
erously given up--and unless it is rescued BY
the firmness of the North, ii will be permanently
ost.
=. fhan in kyD a IN Ia
WHO values the institutions Of the country sho
cares for tie diffusion of sound theories Of
Government, and virtuous principles of social
action, who would be glad to promote tn, sta
billy Of our Union, is imperatively called 20
act But no single man, no single party, ga
adequately meet the crisis snd avert tle danger.
There must be junction of all good men ofVery
party, in determined effort for this common
end. The success of this leader or that the
triumph of this party or that, is not, il the
present posture Of affairs, matter of any
moment. But the salvation of ear glorious in
heritance from utter extinction and overthrow,
is matter of infinite moment. Consequences,
in the way of an enlarging freedom, of al ex-
banding virtue, of ripening prosperity, depend
upon it, which cannot be described in Words
The imagination itse.f is bafled in the attempt
to seize the whole import and significance of
the occasion.
We hope and pray therefore that every citizen
who hears the Declaration of Independence
read this day, and feels his heart animated by
its noble assertion Of the great general princi-
pies of Liberty, will bethink him of their appli.
cation to the events Immediately before us; aud
while the echoes of its sublime truth are still
ringing in bis ears resolve that the Fourth of
July of 1856 shall find the policy of the Nation
restored TO the immortal principles with which
it set out On the Fourth of July, 1776.

A contemporary at Mineral Point, Wisconsin,
recently complained with some bitterness that
the enormous circulation Of THE TRIBUNE in
that quarter and through tho Northern States
generally, seriously interfered with the pros
perity of the local press. We do not think this
criticism is well grounded. II is true The
TRIBUNE, from ia. metropolitan position aud ex-
tensve resources, is enabled to furnish to its
readers an amount and variety of interesting
natter which 10 local Journal could hope
to rival; but this can By no means do
Injury to such journals if they are only
conducted with judgment. The difficulty
is that instead Of devotirg Themselves TO matters
Of immediate interest to the people about them,
and making themselves absolutely necessary TO
their respective Localities, they attempt 10 copy
the distsLt metropolitan papers to treat of the
same subjects, republish the same news, and 60
over the same ground with them. OF course
such On attempt can only result ia failure for
obvious reasons; but if the country editor were
to limit his labOrs more generally to events and
topics directly around him, FROM which the city
journals ne &C ssarly excluded he would find that
| The larger the circulation Of THE TRIBUNE in
his vicinity the greater would be the nu Rber OF
