The New York Tinas - The Death
Of Greeley.

IhD Nc" IOGA
Of Greeley.
New YORK, November 3o.-Tbe
Times, IN an editorial on Greeley'i
death, says: "Greeley's loss In jour.
nallsm Is one which cannot be replaced.
The incidents Of his last sickness were
peculiarly distressing, and from all we
can learn his reverses during the lnte
campaign cannot alone account fol
them. Had he been successful, the
probabilities are he would not have
lived, so oyertaxed was bis strength,
so utterly broken down he seems to
have been. The constant labors and
excitement Of the canvass were more
than his body or mind could bear. We
shall not attempt at this moment to do
Justice to Greeley as a Journalist
and a public man. His life Is a
part Of the history Of the country dur.
Ing the last thirty years, and the time
has not yet come when IL can be i'm
partially considered. It Ia certain that
Greeley's name will always DO hon.
ored In connection with the anti-slav-
cry struggles, and with many impor.
tant measures, which he fought for
with remarkable vlgor, simply because
lie believed they were right. Into
these subjects we will not now enter,
for the country IS scarcely rid OF the
din and turmoil Of the memorable and
unhappy past. Historians will do
Justice to Greeley. aud meanwhile his
c%ountrymsn will be strangely forget
full If they failed to pay due tribute to
his memory. He has been before them
for almost a generation, and he has
had their confidence In many trying
periods Of our own history. Let US
now remember only his virtues and
his genius.
