The Fremont question, and its bold,
ma11y position thereon, have killed it
stone dead. Some Of them ETC charitable
enough to believe that we may issue a
few numbers yet il ws can borrow money
enough 70 pay for the white paper; hui
all are sure that the death-sloT has oeen |
dealt, and that any fellow who will listen
at the key-ho1e Of the Office door can hear
the death-rattle in its throat Had we not
been killed of 50 sften in the last half
dozen wears, We sheuld begin to look about
Us for logical evidence OF the signs Of dis
solution that We do net feel But haying
teen condemned BY these same amiabk
contemporaries to pass through the dark

easy under these prophecies Of evil !

strong articles in farcr of the nomination
Of ABRAHAK LINCOLN for the Presidency,
by the Chicago Convention, in opposition

Lean, whereby We MORALLY offended the
friends Of these leading men, the howl was
set up that now the TRIBUNE was done
for; that eur business VAS crushed; that
OUT subscribers were falling of, and that
the hated, because independent, enterpri-
sing and i've newspaper would not inter
fe1e with the little one-ho1se concerns any
more. ME. Stewards friends were espe-
cially yenomous and exu1tAnt; but the
State Convention of Illinois met, and, in
accordance with our views, Instructed its
delegates to go for Lincoln. Our subscrip
ton list had suffered by our course; but
We knew We we're right, and when the
National Convention was held, our cfo7ts
were redoubled, our views were
adopted, Lincoln ~as nomln ated' anu up
went our LIST, with . qnick feoeuno' 70 I
point higher than It had eyer reached be-
fore.
When af>er the election, the rebellion
was inaugu1ated, tender-tooted patriots,
many Of them honest and sincere meH, but
ali mistaken, began to talk Of comproHais-
ing away our victory, and reducing the
Republican party, as the Democratic party
had years before been reduced, to condi-
ton Of yassalage to the imperious Slave
Power, the TRIBUNE, true to its instincts
and principles, resisted the mad endcavor
aud once more we were to be ruined. We
daily rot threatening letters OF most atro
cious meaning; public meetings were call
ed in this city and elsewhere to denounce
US; men went about with papers pledgiag
merchants to withdraw their advertise
ments and subscriptions; and between
these and the other agencies employed, VI
