The personal controversy between Thur
low Weed in the Times and Horace
Greeley, in the Tribune has drawn G. A.
Dana, Of the Chicago Republican, who
paints his old associate, h. g., thus: 1.-THE
truth is that Mr.. Greeley has a desire,
which is as natural as it is respectable, that
his merits and services should be recoe-
nized by his fellow. citizens, and that his
lRborious career should be crowned by
those distinctions which are awarded to
eminent public men everywhere. We
have never known a person of distinction
with q keener appreciation of the applause
of men and the substantial marks Of ap-
plsuse than Mr.. Greeley. He longs in his
heart to be representative, governor, sens
tor, president But he will never stoop,
and never has stopped, to solicit any man
or men to aid him in gaining any of those
places. Much as he has desidersted office,
be has eve directly tried to get It, and
has generally exhibited u~nwillingness
when the subject has been proposed to
him.
