its more striking incidents. We shall not how

THE TRIBUNE an honorable position among its
cotemporaries. Our main object is and shall be |
to produce compreh hensive newspaper from
which a careful reader may CLEAN a,vivid and
faithful history of the times not merely in the do
main of Action but in that of Opinion also As |

with years, we trust that an improvement in the |
contents of our journal is perceptible and that,
in the variety and fulness of intelligence afford
ed, we may still hope to make each day critic
