We do not know that it is worth while

Mr. GREELEY were stated by US in these
words when his was first published in
May, 1860, and what was then stated Is
the simple fact:
Shortly before the Inst session Of the
40th Congress, II will be remembered. the
Tribune came out in advocacy Of IN
Amendment proposing N[r. Grceley's
plan Of Universal Suffrage and Univer-
sal Amnesty" Being sincerely desirous
of seeing Congress propose an Amend
ment cnfranchising the blacks and believ-
ing il tho measure also included the rebels
1t would not pass Congress, or II 1t did
would fail OF ratification, we wrote a pri-
vate note to Mr.. Greeley simply ior
his information, stating TINT an Amend
mcnt enEfanchising tho Negroes only
would doubtless bc ratified by our Legis'
luture, willie If 1t also enlranchtsed the
rebels II would be sure Of rejection. We
offered no argument either for or against
rebel enIranciisemcnt, merely stating the
grounds on which we were sure the Re
publlcans In the Legislature would vote
against such d measure. NlE: g.. howe
ever, seems to have understood US 70 state
these positions as our own.
