Horace GREELEY ASD TIE NEW York TRI-
BuYE-The Washington correspondent of the
Cincinnati Enquirer has following regard
ing the rumor that Greeley is about to leave
the Tril une:
Speaking Of New York politics, / must
correct an error in one of my former letters.
| wrote to you that Seward and Greeley
We're no longer friends, and that the New
\ ork Tribune was against Seward. The
Tribune part is true The Tribune is against
Seward, but not Mr. Mr.. Greeley he is now,
as he always has been, Stewards fast friend.
Greeley has lost the control Of the Tribune,
and is much annoyed at its present course.
Some years ago, you viii recollect, Greeley
and McElrath converted the Tribune into
stock company, they retaining half of it,
which gave them virtually its control Things
went on very well until Nr McElrath, who
coincided with Mr.. Greeley in its manage
ment, was compelled by heavy losses occa-
stoned by outside speculations to sell out
His interest was purchased by parties adverse
to Greeley, and he thus lost control Of the
paper. An article soon after appeared in the
Tribune intimating in a manner very often
siye to Greeley that his individuality was no
longer essential to the paper. 1t is said that
Greeley viii soon dispose of his interest in
the Tribune, and in conjunction with his old
partner, Mcllrath, start new paper, to be
called Greeeys Tribune The new paper, it
is said, will be Seward concern.
