THE TRIBUNE FOR 1868.

The year 1868 will long be remembered for its set

Itis difficult to argue with a blind, besotted
prejudice, grounded in ignorance and fortified by
self fcOnceit. Devoid OF reason, il is hardly amen
able to reason. But millions who would listen un-
moved to appeals based on Justice and Humanity
be stirred by facts that affect their own inter
est and safety. The naked truth that every
Southern State reconstructed on the White basis
is to-day Rebel State 49, shaped and ruled by men
who execrated Lincons reluctant and lardy resist

the plea that the Blacks ignorant and degraded,

will take good care that the plea shall be valid,

spirit which dictated that avowal is still rampant
in the South. But for what is stigma lied as Mil

and inhiction what it deems negro treachery to
the Southern cause.
THE TRIBUNE has declined to be lured or turned
aside from the Main Question: 1t has persistcntly y
refused to swell the clamor for vengeance on the
defeated rebels, whether by execution or confsca-
ton and one of its strong sons for this course
is a C, nvictun that no drop Of rebel blood could
b. cooly, deliberately shed without essentially
clouding the prospect of securing the Right OF
Suffrage to the Blacks. Dcfyng the madness of
passion, and the blindness of short sighted mis-
conception, it has demanded Reconstruction on the
basis of Universal Amnesty with Impartial Suf.

thereby alienated thousands who had been its zeal
GUS supporters and lifelong patrons. The hour
of its complete vindic6tion cannot be far distant.
As for the man who is to be the chosen stand
ard d-bearer OF the Republican host in the impend-
ing contest, while we avOw our deliberate pref
erence Of Chief Justice Chase as the ablest and
most eminent of our living statesmen, THE TRI-
BuNE will! render a hearty, cheerful support to
Gen. Grant, or Senator Wade, or Speaker Colfax,
should he be nominated and supported on plat
form which aitrms and upholds the equal polti-
cal as well as civil rights of all citizens of the Re-
public. We do not contemplate as possible the
support by Republicans of any candidate who does
n stand on this platform And we do not APP
prehend that the candidates who, in our approach
ing struggle, shall represent genuine Democracy
in opposition to the meanest phase of Aristooracy
can be beaten if proper means be systematically
taken, as they must and will be, to enlighten and
arouse the American people.

politics. while an outlay of more than 5000 900

have regular correspondents in nearly all the cap
itals of Europe, with director at London who is
authorized TO dispatch special correspondents to
all points where important events may at any time
be transplrng or imminent. The progress of the

greater war, has been watched by one of these
special correspondents, while another telcgraphs
from COnstantinople each novel phase of the crit-
cal diplomatic situation. Every step of Carl
baldi's recent heroic though unfortunate enterprise
from its inception to its close, was noted by our
correspondents, who also his most trusted ad-
