SAYS the New Tilnilc

The day of Furnishing thought and speech
in this country is at an end, and we want to
see who will dare to attempt II revive it
The day the Tribune speaks of never arose
in this coHntry until the Republican party
came into power. Though, aud speech were
really free until Lincoln was elected. After
that it was iettered. Two hundred papers
were suppressed by the government. an by
Republican mobs, on account of their sen,i
ments, ard the number OF arr sis can be
counted by the thousands for the same
cause. We hope, with the Tribune, the day
is at an end, bat VIC fear il is not, while
Republican partizans are in Office CinciH

holding that the note wus for $50, and a
Judgment conid be obtained only for that
