and in other ways, admit the emptiness Of its
exchequsr, The Tribune's circulation, espe-
cially its oity circulation, is small because It
confines itself to q small party. The World is
willing to let its large and constantly inoreas-
ing list of readers see what the opponents of
Democracy as we'll as leading Democrats have
TO say. We published Blair's speech and as
much as we could get of Stanton's side by
side, in the same issue. We gave the Repub
licsn speeches of Fremont and Griswold. Our
readers are fully informed of what the radi-
calls do at all their great gatherings. As
consequence, we gain subscribers and have
hosts Of readers in both parties. and our libe-
rality and perfect fairness have drawn thou
sands Of subscribers from the Herald, Sun,
and other radical sheets which pretend to be
independent" A live newspaper is its own
best advertiser. The supplements which we
publish three or four times a week, filed with
fresh intelligence and matters of vital interest
from all quarters, are better advertisements
than all the posters Mr.. Sinclair ever
"sowed." Nor need the World make the
confession that 1t must resort to country
advertising and poster-pasting to replenish
its treasury. Our enterprise as a newspaper
has long ago enabled us to outstrip in cireula-
tion any and all papers which endeavor
to keep themselves before the people by
means of "eolored posters" rather than by
the contents of their columns. The fairness,
fullness, freshness, and general merits OF
good newspaper will "post" the people as
well as itself, and bring the immediate re-
turns which are manifest iu every depart
ment, including the treasury of the World.
The ITibuneS magazine writer has frankly
told how the Tribune tries to raise the
wind, and we as freely tell the Tribune how
to make it strong and constantly swelling
gale.

soMETHING INTERESTING TO OUR CITY READERS
To our perambulations yesterday evening we OBJ
served quite crowd of ladies and gentlemen near
tie corner Of st. Charles and jackson streets, ap-
parently engaged in the examination of some
particular object. Struck by the crowd, we
wendell our steps thither, and must confess that
upon coming up our eyes were absolutely daz.
zled by the beautiful display Of luscious Malagar
grapes, bananas, oranges, apples. etc., together
with quarters Of the most magnificent Kentucky
beef, which took the premium at our recent State
Fair, splendid canyasbsek duck, snipe, wood
cock, with as fine en- expose Of fresh garden vege-
tables as we ever saw. For this unexpected
Qualification we are indebted to our popular aud
enterpTising friend, Charley Ballejo. who, by the
way, keeps one Of the incest ASSIGNMENTS Of
family groceries in the city, or, we may safely say,
in the South. Mr.. Bsllejo proposes to furnish the
good people of the Garden District with all the
deliescies Of the marke, at prices that will make
it greatly to their interest, well as convenience
to patronize his pretty little market, just now
completed.

as creditable to the literature and journalistic

The loAvEs AND FIsHEs.-By referring to the
certificate Of AnE Riley, in another column of this
mornings CRESCENT, it will be seen that at the
two State fairs of 1866 and ls6s the premium and
blue ribbon were awarded to her for the best
baked bread. Being fine practical cook. and
having used to her entire satisfaction all the cook
ing stoves Of the day, she selected above all
others the ''old Charter oakn as the one by which
she could obtain the greatest university and dis.
trbution Of heat, and thereby best accomplish her
object, namely. getting the premium and blue rib.

severe loss in the death of Doctor A. T. Howe,

the old New Orleans population. The loss of
so pure and excellent q man cannot easily be
repaired. The funeral will take place at P.

TIE Hon. Thomas Ewing of Ohio.
lately published an address in favor of
Seymour and Blair, and against the
Radicals and their candidates. 1t is
extensively circulated through the
South, where it is probably expected to
produce a mighty effect on the negro
voters. Mr.. Ewing belongs to the
Noachian period of American politics,
and must now be about two hundred
and fifty years old. The men of the
present day will remember hearing
their grandfathers speak of him in their
infancy. he Is a very respectable
gentleman, and his opinion may have
been of some value in his day, though
IL was then uniformly against the DEM
ocracy and its candidates. His address
is longer than the moral law, and
much less interesting TO the intelli'
gent reader. In fact, we should say
that a fair price for reading it through
would be about ten dollars. II the Job
were done by the day, humanity
would require the eight-hour rule to
be enforced.
