ORR CITY IN NOVEMBER.

The graspmg ct power over our State by tho
Tammany Ring" is sure to prove disastrous to
those who braved the hazard If II shall BIO wisely.
unseGshy met. We Republicans are but two-fflds
of the voters here and must of be totally de-
featedon strict party ISSUE But there arc tens OF
thousands Of Democrats whe are thoroughly SICK Of
the mercenary despotism enthroned in Tammsuy
Hail. and ready to unite to overthrow it. Let us
have a County Republican ticket made up in good
part Of these, and the dynasty of Tweed, Cornell.
Sweeney and Brennan, will surely go down. And
then we shall be ready to clear the City Hall at the
December Election
We entreat the Republicans Of our City 70 unite
with the anti.Tammany Democrats to beat the
"Rno on every County Office. Let Us have an
anti Ring County Ticket, made up mainly II not
wholly of Democrats who are hostile to the Tammaoy
despotism. For our own part, we should prefer to
see il made up wholly ofDemocmts, yet heartily sup
ported by every Republican in this City. Were we
wise enough to render such support, we should surely
beat the Ring do very well on Congress and the
Legislature, and send Hoffman out of the City
with very small majority. We call upon the Cit.
zen Association to initiate movement looking to the
nomination and support Of an anti" Ring" County
Ticket, and proier our hearty cooperation.
Hoffman is the candidate of those who, under tie
cry of Municipal Rights" would concentrate ths
whole government of our City in the pureus Of Tam
many Hail. Should he be elected, we shaR bavo the
State Boards Of PoEce, Fire and Water Commits
sioners abolished, and the crying abuses whence
these have delivered revived. The sold Volanteet
Fire system the wretchedly inefficient Municipal
Police changed with every party overturn, with our
Croton Water and Central Park management trans
ferred to the Common Council-that is, to Tammsny
Hall-sueh is the entertainment to which MI fof-
man invites US Let us turn the tables on Ia deyiSecs
by electng on anti Ring County Ticket.

MP J0gNS0YS LEANIYGs.

Mr.. II. J. Raymond states the substance OF certain
conversations he had months since with the Presi-
dent wherein the latter assured him that he did not
mean TO desert nor to PROSTATE the party that elected
him. We have heard of similar assurances given to
Others. We cannot deem these words calculated to
outweigh notorious facts. Let us set forth one or
| two more:
Our State Convention last year showed q small but
firm Weed-seward msjOrity-how obtained, matters
not to the present purpose. Of that majority Mr.
Raymond was the organ. He drafted and submitted
the platform, which was surcharged with admiration
of and devotion TO Johnson. The ticket nominated
was mainly made of men presumed to be Seward or
johnson men,
And yet, that ticket received no evidence Of SYM
pathy from the President Custom-House and other
Federal officers were forbidden Every properly we
think to assess their subordnaes for the support of
that ticket as they are not now Orbidden-not By any
manner Of means-to assess them for the sup
port Of the Hoffman ticket Great efforts
wero made to evoke from Mr.. johnson letter evin-
cling his preference for tho success Of this tickets 1--WE
believe Mr. Raymond went TO Washington on this
orand;) bot all to no purpose. Mr.. Johnson allowed
himself to DO claimed favorable to the Democratic
ticket without word. Nay, more; Mr.. Montgomery
Blair-wel known TO be an intimate friend of the
President as well as of his poicystumped our State
lin company with John Van BUREN, for the Demo-
cratic ticket and the johnson policy, and we have
heard that he confdentally assured leading Demo-
Gratis that if they carried the State they should have
the Federal Offices.
Mr.. Raymond says that Mr., johnson expressed
decided aversion to being surrounded by notorious
Copperhesds. Yet they did surround him very soon
after his inauguration and have swarmed thicker
and thicker around him to this day. We need not
call names, since the fact is notorious Some OF them
would require that boot be reinforced by kick
where their was preferred to their company; but
many would not. Yet these men had, and stih have,
tho private ear of the President. We must conclude,
therefore, that Mr. Raymond has given credit to
words that were belied by deeds.

JOHN T. HOFFMAN.

Mayor Hoffman made speech at Sing Sing on the
18th, wherein he intimated that THE TRIBUNE had
said hard things of him. Heis mistaken. OF his per-
sona unofficial character, we have said nothing of
bis political affiliations and public character, we have
spoken freely, but temperatey. We oppose him as the
pet and nominee of the Ring whereby our City has
been swndled of Millions of Dollars, and which is
still sucking at her liie.bood with the Unsuitable vo.
racty of all the horse-leech's daughters. We OPP
pose him as the man forced upon the Albany
Convention against its better judgment, By the con-
federated plunderers who run the Tammany machine,
hang about the City Hall the Controllers and Street
Commissioners Offices, and have sold seat in the
next Congress to John Morrissey. We oppose him
as the candidate OF all that is prohgate in the gov
eminent of this most misgoyened City, and of nearly
every man living on this island who seeks to enrich
himself BY pandering to depraved appetite or minis
tering to vice.
For instance:
Last Winter, number Of our best citizens united
in framing an act designed to limit the ravages of
incompetence. It YVES iq no scnse PrOhibitOry
Liquor law. True, it expressly forbade the sale OF
Alcoholic Liquors on Sunday; but the laws Of our
State had never tolerated such sale save to actual
travellers on journey. II required all grogshops to
be closed at midnight and not reOpened till daylight
1t forbade sales to S5S; nndar Is years Of age It
transferred the business Of licensing to the Board of
Police AID forbade the licensing Of dens of debauch-
cry and crime In short, it was consderate, wise,
humane act which allowed ample facilities for pro.
curing strong drink but struck at several of the more
garng abuses OF the Liquor Traffic
M
keep the mill going all night and Sundays as well
as week days took Oaense. They held public
meeting in the name of the Germans, and called on
their friends to come to their aid Mr.. Hoffman re-
sponded in a letter. wherein he says:
Il am much opposed to intolerance TO ntemper

THE TRIBUNE.

The attention which our newspaper is generally
receiving throughout the country and the rather
unusual interest which is taken in its prosperity,
induce us this morning to step aside from the gen.
raj rule of keeping our business affairs to our
selves, and say word or two by way OF iniorma-
ton and thanks.
The aggregate circulation of the editions Of THB
TRIBUNE issued on Thursday, Sept. Is, was 56,d15
copies larger than on the lstof August There have
been times Of feyerish excitement, when the public
mind craved for news, and we suddenly added fifty
or sixty thousand to our circulation only 10 find
it falling of in day or two. Every news
paper has these spasmodic additions to its circula-
ton; but the increase of which we now speak can
he traced to the existence Of no special news, and
certainly of no unusual excitement. Those who
understand the business of journalism know that
the Summer months are, generally speaking, the
duest months of the year-that circulation falls
Of, advertisements shrink-and none but journals
with large resources can live without loss. This
summer, however, HAS DteH W W d ocdsOh VI
great prosperity. our subscription and advertising
receipts show large increase, and the dreaded
August has been truly the month Of harvest.
The reasons for this prosperity we cannot alto
getber give THE TRIBUNE is merely THE TRIBUNE
that X has always been, and what we propose it
shall always be. The feeling Of Indignation which
exists toward the dishonored Administration of Presi
dent johnson, and the fact that we have stood
firm as the representative Of that feeling, while
other journals hitherto feeding with the Republican
party have gone to the wel-flled Presidential
trough, will account for some Of the enthusiastic
support which we have gained. But beyond this,
the enterprise of The TRIBUNE, in its determination
to print the best newspaper, well as the foremost
Republican journal in the country, will account for
the steady, natural aud healthy increase Of our
business. As a member OF the Associated Press we
bear our share of the expenses Of thai expensive
association vet these form but small part Of
what we pay We have an organization Of our own
as large as that Of the Associated Press, aud in
many cases costing more money. To indicate
what this costs US, We give weekly expenditures
for one branch of this expenditure alone-namely
special teegraphic dispatches Of American news:

TILE NEW ENROLLMENT.

We leaTn from wellinformed source that movement
Is on foot among tho friends Of Mr. H. j. Raymond in at
least two Assembly Districts 10 place the Of spos
bate Republicans in sufficient numbers the rolls Of the
eW Republican Associations, 10 control the nominations
In the Sixth Congressional District The pretense Of these
eonspra.ors Is that the enrolment has regard solely
10 the State Ticket and accordingly that the supporters
OF Mr. Raymond provided they vote Cor Fcnton ent
tied 10 membership in the associations To show the
sbsardy Of this assumption it is only necessary to refer to
the forms Of tho resolution Of the State Conyentionor
deting tho enrolment The inspectors in each Assembly
District are required to enroll tho Of the Union
Republicans in said district who ndorse and support the
platform and principles OF this Convention" Conspicuous
among the propositions thus enuneated is the thorough
and hearty approval of the policy Of the maety in Con
gross and the equally emphatic condemnation Of the
mouse of the President and his OllowersMr Raymond
Included. ..r..
Among those who openly avow their determination to
place their names by fair foul, the rolls
is delegate to the late Democratic Convention held at
Albany aud sgner of the call for the meeting to be held
this evening in Union Square of those
who approve the open manly and patriotic course OF
ANDREW JOHNSON,
In opposition the Illegal assumptions and usurpatiOns Of
partisan Congress"
We say emphatiesy to this man. and to all others like
bm that hcy have no place In the Republican party and
that any attempt Oh their part force themselves into its
organization will be resisted. They have voluntarily sepa'
rated themselves from their former associates and
1poak the unanimous wish Of the steadfas Republicans
Of this City when soy that the party which the
late iumphs in Maine and Vermont wish to have nothing
b do with them in the future. We call upon the In
specors seoy to refuse these renegsdss admission into
sAe party and we trust that adequate police force will
be In attendance at the various places Of enrolment to
Srotec. them In the discharge Of their duties.
