Horace Greeley Returns to the Tribune-HTs
Card to the Public.

New York, November 6.-The Til
bune will tomorrow publish the follow
ing card:
''The undersigned resumes the editor
ship of the Tribune, which he relin-
pushed on embarking in another line OF
business six months ago. Henceforth
it shall be his endeavor to make this a
thoroughly independent journal, treat
ing all parties and political movements
with Judicial fairness and candor, but
counting the favor and deprecating the
wrath of no one. If he can hereafter
say Anything that will tend to heartily
unite the whole American people on the
broad platform of universal amnesty
and impartial suffrage he will gladly
do so. For the present, however, he
can best command that contamination
by silence and forbearance.
':The victors in our late struggle can
hardly fail to take the whole subject of
Southern rights and wrongs into early
and earnest consideration, and to them
he for the present RENTS it;
''Since He will never again be d can
didate for any Office, and is not in full
accord with Gather Of the great parties
which have hitherto divided the coun-
try, he will be able and will endeavor
to give wider and steadief regard to
the progress of science, industry and
the useful arts than a partisan journal
can, arid he will not be provoked to
indulgence IN those bitter personalities
which are the recognized bane of jour
malism.
Sustained by a generous public he
will do his best to make the Tribune a
power iii the broader field it now con-
templates, as when human freedom was
in peril it was in the aretia of political
partisanship. HORACE GREELEY"

= week before the election, Forney who,
the day after the gubernatorial election in
Pennsylvania. said there were no frauds,
published the evidence given i'll court re-
lative totlae changing Of votes by the cleo
ton officers in Philadelphia, and basing his
opinion upon the evidence, concludes
that, in Philadelphia. independent Of ballot
box stutfing, repeating and personatms,
the returns were changed SO as to give
Hartranft 1900 votes which were cast for
BIca1aIew This would make a change of
5000. If we add the votes Of reporters,
ballot box suffers, and imported negroes,
we can see very cleary how the frauds in
Philadelphia alone amounted to over 40
900 votes. Add to this the frauds in other
sections of the state and you will perceive
how great commonwealth has been de-
priyed of It's governor and a tool of the
Administration substituted in his place.
