dismissed Mr.. Fitz Henry Warren, who was at
that time the Tribune's Washington correspon.

ton and the army. In the place of Mr. Warren
the Tribune sent out o man named Wilkinson
who used to be a protege of Thurlow Weed.
until Mr.. Weed found him to be too obtrusive
and showed him the door. Then Wilkinson cur
ried favor with Greeley by attacking Mr.. Weed,
and wrote for the Tribune series of bitter and
scurrilous articles about Weed and his Journal

This may be canard and only give it has reach
cd us.
This looking out for" and watching the
movements of an American frigate" by first
class British ship-of-war seems to indicate
disposition to fight if the opportunity offered.
AS it happens, the Gazette was slightly mistaken
as to the character and nationality of the pas
sengers supposed to have embarked on the mail
steamer. The report itself must have originated
out of the fact that the James Adger had arrived
in Europe in search Of the steamer Nashville,
on which it was at first supposed that the rebel
Commissioners had embarked. We will how
ever, say to our English friends that they may
have plenty Of opportunity hereafter to show
their pluck if they have any. ;.

The Posi- OFFICE ADvER1IsNG-A BROKEN
Dose FOR GREELEY AND THE LITTLE VILLAIN
Mr.. Mephistopheles Greeley and that "Lttle
Villain" Raymond are greatly moved upon the
subject of the relative circulation of the
HERALD and their own petty papers, and are
affected to tears about the matter We are sor-
ry for them; but their attempts to inveigle us
into silly bet are absolutely in vain. The
practice of betting is immoral. We cannot ap-
prove Of it. 1t may suit Greeley and Raymond,
who have exhibited very little morality In the
conduct of their journals, but it will not do for
us. We never made but one bet in our life, and
upon that occasion-thirty- ty-fve years ago-we
wagered ten dollars that jackson would be
elected President, and we won the money. The
transaction was 30 out Of our usual line, how
ever and weighed so heavily upon our con-
science, that we were obliged to take the money
from our pocket and give it to the poor. May
this disposition of the funds atone for the man
ner Of their receipt.
No, Messrs. Greeley and Raymond, our busi-
ness is to edit a newspaper, and we cannot
waste time in card and dice playing with such
idle and penniless vagabonds as yourselves If
however, you really believe that your papers
have any circulation to be compared with that
of the HERALD, we will show you how to decide
the question without any betting. AT the be-
ginning of every year the Post Office advertis-
Ing is given to the journal having the largest
daily circulation. We now have this advertis-
ing, and shall apply for it again for next year,
and wish you to do so also. As the circulation
of each paper has to be stated in sworn
affidavit, and as the Postmaster may examine
witnesses upon the subject, if he pleases, there
could be no fairer way of determining what the
relative circulation Of the HERALD, Tribune and
Times really is. Every day we print and dis
pose of over one hundred thousand daily
HERALDs, and frequently our circulation rises
to one hundred and twenty and one hundred
and thirty-fve thousand copies.
Now, if you can touch those figures, send in
your afiidavits to the Post Office and take the
advertising $4,000 year-and all the
prestige it brings with it. If not, hold your
tongues, acknowledge that the HERALD has the
largest daily circulation Of any paper in the
world, and apply your betting money-if you
have any-to the payment of your debts.
