The Erening Post informs It's readers that it
is conducted in very different "style " from
that of The TRIBUNE, which [ours1 it proceeds
to describe as follows:
THAT style consists not Of open. manly argument
upon questions OF principle, but of sly mean and
malicious innuendoes, in which base motives are indi
rectly imputed without being directly charged and
false and damaging political afnities are asserted
where afinities whatever exist Ii is fayorite
mode Of disputaton with the Pccksnhs OF the press,
who assume immaculate purity Of principle and pur
pose wiring their hands and roll up their in horror
OF everything that doesn't chance TO be intensely
spectacle hin. at everybodys faults and Deficiencies
and indulge most sanity sefcomplasance to their
own"
The Post proceeds to excmplify its own
"style of open, manly argument" as fol-
lows:
I'VE should say that writer whose relations TO
public questions gave in article on Resuscifation
which The TRIBUNE will perhaps remember ought TO
BE- little cautious In the way OF reort; that whose
before and during the have been wththe
George Sanderses. the Colorado Jewetts. the Beverly

An attempt was made in the Senate yesterday
to snugge the Arkansas claimants into the
jurisdiction OF the Judiciary Committee. But
Mr.. Trumbull promptly said that their case had
been once passed upon BY that Committee; that
Messrs. Snow and Baxter were not entitled to
seats until Congress had recognized Arkansas;
and that the Committee had seen no reason to
change its mind since it came to that conclusion.
The Senate, by % to II, declared itself Of the
same opinion with its Judiciary Committee, and
Mr. Kansas Lane took nothing by his motion.
Arkansas stays out with the rest till she lfiags
forth fruits meet for repentance.

Mr. Sherman of Ohio made speech yeSter-

the House excluding Rebel claimants from seats
in Congress till Congress shall have passed on
the question of Reconstruction. Having at

Of it as the telegraph sends us--we are wholly
at loss to know whether Mr.. Sherman is for
that resolution, or against it; whether he is
for the Republican party. or for President
Johnston; whether he is for Reconstruction on
the basis Of Equal Rights, or for Reconstruc-
ton Oh the basis Of the Union as it was. When
the public opinion OF the country has manifested
itself lecisvely ON one side or the other of these

il was profitable or safe to talk on four sides Of
