Tue TRIBUNE on ITs LAST LEcs.-We have
certain and official information that the Tribune
is on its last legs. There arc twenty two
partners III that agreeable ''association." each
Of whom expects to be supported by the estab-
lishment, and takes hand in at the general
management Of the concern. OF course Il paper
which does not pay cannot support twenty two
hungry and thirsty abolitonsts. and so the
immortal twenty-five have rcsoricd 10 thaG
irish remedy for low spirits--a general row.
There is in double sense an intestine war ia
the Tribune Office, and poor Greeleys own
misery is embittered by association With TWEEN
ty-one other spirits more wicked than himself.
The falling in of the I;;boae's circulation has
led TO falling out among the partners, and
the situation, as the twenty-one put it, is now
about this Either Greeley must leave the con-
cern the paper mist 20 to smash, for
Greeley is blamed and made scapeeoat for
al the sins OF The association" front abolition,
ism 10 lottery gambling. If the former horn Of
the dilemma is taken we may expect 10 sea
poor Greeley come headlong from The Iribatse.s
fourth story windows some fine day. execute
his grca. act Of pillaerostation, gracefully
aiight upon the paving stones, and break his
precious neck. il. on the contrary. The T,iboas.
and not poor Greeley is smashed, why then
Il great gambling establishment will DE broken
among the curiosities Of Barnums Museum.
50. in either event, the public may rejoice and
be exceeding glad

1nE SAD DESTINY or RAYMOND AND GaEF-
IEY.-The Times and Tribune are pursuing pre-.
cisely the same course az that which proved the
destruction Of so many Of their predecessor.
Old Noah and the Chcvalier Webb used to try
to make capital ont of attacks upon the HERALD,
Just as Raymond ana Greeley do now: and what
was the result! Why, their readers grew tired
ST this continual abuse--sustaincd with far more
vile talent than that Of The present imitators
and utterly deserted them. Just as the public is
now deserving Raymond and Greeley's littls
make-believc newspapers. Old Noah fsile.! ia
every daily newspaper enterprise, and died;
Webb sold out his paper and is buried in dplo-
matte state. somewhere in the appropriately hot
Bra2ls. Greeley and Raymond are going tac
same road. and may see their sad destiny fore
Swallowed in that of Noah and Webb. Already
their papers will not support them: and so ono
goes to the Legislature, to lobby railroad bills.
and the other is trying TO be chief Of the lobby.

in the hope OF cheating honest people. This IN
but the beginning OF the end Of poor Raymond

notice that the arch abolitionist rebel Wendell

object OF this lecture is to uphold the anti.ad-

little praising of Fremont, at the expense az
every conservative, from President Lincoln and
Gen. Mcclellan down to the democratic pri.
Yates in the ranks of the army. We have had
quite enough Of this Northern anti-slavery re-
bellion II is as offensive and antagonistic 70
every true Union man as is the secession rebcl-
lion Of the South. This lecture Of Wendell
Phillips ought never to be allowed and it
should be prevented, not by mob, but by OF,
regular authorities, the Mayor and the Superin-
tendent Of Police, who should consult together
and take effectual means to break mp any such
meeting. This is no question Of free speech.
Our authorities would not allow seccssionists
to hold meetings here in New York; and on the
same just principle these Northern rebe'
ought to be compelled to be silent Fort Ia

GAyETY OF THE CAPITAL.

One 81 the most striking features OF life here Is tho
utter carelessness and nsoc0nes OF every Froa,
Mrs Lincoln, driving in her gaudy coach, and Mr. Lincoln
amusing himself with Hermann $ feats Of prcsdcita
ton, down TO the young officers dancing gayy at the
balls every one seems to consider the present time
especially created for amusement. There is not tho
slightest seriousness anywhere that have been able to
discover; is all fun, And any one who locks or
speaks earnestly Of the critical condition OF affairs Ia
garded bore by all but Of the tcw older heads
One would think all the ifast boys Of the country had
Gene TO Washi gton, for none Of tho here seem
for much else but jplty. Tho streets hronge
with officers and privatcs all intent amusement; and
dashing young cavalry cak their swords and ingla
their spurs in dancing we'll rs barrootus. Tho
mournul faces all at the homes that the has
made desoatc.
This is hostile to the army and the war, hos
tile to the President, and meanest and most
contemplate of all, hostile to Mrs. Lincoln.
When political malevolence can sink 40 low
as to wound a man by attacking his family il
has sounded the lowest depth of infamy. Mrs.
Lincoln has always conducted herself with tho
strictest proprety, and she is an ornament to
the White House. This brutal attack on an ex-
celleat lady is characteristic OF the abolition
journals.
