Mr. Greeley, in an article signed
with his initials IN the Tribune to-
day, says Of the Young correspond
ence, that three -fourths of it was of
matter in which the public had and
could have no legitimate interest, the
blazoning of which could crafty no
decent curiosity, aud to print which
at all was simply an outrage. Mr..
Greeley expresses the belief that the
statement that MIR. Young has been
abusing his position on the Tribune,
or his influence as Journalist, to pro-
mote his private ends, and especially
to procure hans on subsidies for his
or his friends Philadelphia ventures
is false and unfounded; and trusting
that the one touching the associated
press will prove equally so, calls for
a full investigation of the same by the
members of the associated press before
some impartial arbiter or tribunal pro-
posing to take no part in that scrutiny,
unless we are made a party depend
ent, but insisting that Mr.. Young, or
whoever may be suspected or impli-
Gated, shall not be stabbed in the
dark, but shall have the fullest oppor-
tuuity for explanation and defense.
Mr.. Greeley concludes as follows:
1--WE beg that it be understood that
Mr.. Young has not been removed
nor suspended, nor in any manner
condemned by US, as has been mis-
takenly asserted by the San and tel
egraphed all over the country. 1t is
not our custom to pass judgment on
any one on the strength of mere in-
dictment, especially when the finding
of it was plainly impelled by envy,
malice and blighted aspirations"
