il tho most effective temporal antidote 10 the
errors and woes Ct our race. Recognizing u
thc most DEGRADED specimen Of Humanity 81
divine spark which should be reyerentlF
cherished not ruthlessly trQdden out, we nave
rborit,, far All forms OF evil bur those which
seek personal advantage through the dcb@Se-
mont of our fellow-beings. The champion OF
no class or caste, the Ge.Qtee of 10 sect We
won!d fain be the interpreter to each other OF
,,pneral concord between Labor and Capi'al,
and among those whom ci1cunstanceg or ms
aDprehension have thrown into unnatura! az

The circulation Of THE TRIRTEE is at this
time as follows: Daily 81 .0G9 copies
Weekly. TS6. 800 copies; Scmi-N eehIy,
as 600 copies: California and European,
G ekasn coucs; Total .E:ssb 500 copies.
Tbat Of the Semi-Wetkly ami Weekly we be-
Iicye to be exceeded by no other newspaper
published in the world: that of the DAILY
fails behind that OF some of our cotcmpora-
sies Had our hostility to Human Slavery
and the Liquor Traffic been more guarded and
polite. our Daily issues would no" be some
lhous nj. heavier and our Advertising far
more lucrative; but Of our patronage geEer-
alIv We have 10 reason, 30 wish to complain
OfIlte. a concerted effort has been made 10
diminish orr rural circulation through the IN
N1cE.e of the Posnnasters some Of whom enl-
bark in il eagerly Others under political coz
s.raint: while a large number We are happy
f.r the sake of Human Nature to state, refuse
10 br dr3roOned into il at all. Still we have
been made 10 feel the heavy hand OF Power,
and have doubtless lost thousands If sgbSorl-
bcrs in consequence. Prctc&ls T. snIch no III
djyidual in his private capacity would have
stopped have been relied on to justify the
stCpsaGa Of orr papers within reach OF their
subscribers and rightiul owners, and their re
tcntion in the Pos-oAice till their value was
DESTROYED Postmasters have been Schooicd
BY rival iouruais-scYeral ct them living on
their self f-proclaiuacd ability to serve as an
anridote TO THE TRIBUNE-;s TO their 20
lticM duty TO promote at our expense the
dissemination of gazettcS Of adverse politics.
We shall outliye this warfare. but we do not
affect indifference 10 it. In The open field OF
discus jon we fear nothing: but in tho tens
of Thousands OF rural ueighborhoods where
tie Postmaster can induce many OF hi, quiet
neigh boIs To take the journal he recommends,
We haze already lost some patrons and eNz
pcct 10 lose more as our subscriptions for this
rear expire We apGcaI, therefore, TO the
hearty, faithful fearless advocates OF Free
Labor and Free Soil throughout the land TO
take care that this official warfare ca Ou. cir
Cujatiyn be no. prosecuted without counter
action. We employ no travelling agents. for
we Will not consent to have the public har-
assod with the solicitations Of strangers III
our behalf We strike the name OF saca sub
scribcr TO our Weekly or Semi eckiY from
our books % soon as his term has e~pir;d, for
we will not haunt 0Hr patrons with duna Tor
arrears which they may say they never in
tended To incur, for papers which perhaps
they ncyer read; we rely for the renewal O.!
cur club subscriptions solely on the Yoiun-
leercd efforts Of those who, liking our paper.
LciicY is influence Salu AIRY and worthy to be
extended: and thu; far our reliance has Le-n
justified. as We trust it may continue 10 be.
