THE TRIBUNE.
The Tribune Tomorrow SAYS: "Thc
melancholy announcement of the death
OF the editor and founder OF tho Trib-
une, though for a few days il has been
expected by his family and intimate
friends, falls upon us with all the shock
of u sudden calamity. lie had reached,
indeed, u ripe old age. but time had not
laid its whitening touch upon him. His
splendid constitnt ion easily bore the
strain Of enormous labor. Ills mind was
as fresh. and strong. and sugges,ivcas in
the prime of life. His generous inn
pulses q unchillcd by his di,hcartcn-
ing experience through the trying cam
paign which has just closed. Ills phys
zeal vigor, his tact. his intellectual ac-
surprised wen those who knew
himsbcst. and seemed to promise many
years of usefulness.
1T is certain that mo history of the
most critical period in our National life
can ever be written in which Horace
Greeley shall not be n conspicuous fig
ure. But the noblest career. in his eyes,
was that which is given up to othcr-
wants. The successful life was that
which is worm out in conflict will
wrong and woe. The only ambition
worth following was the ambition TO al
lcviate human misery, and leave The
world a little better than he found il
That he has done, this was the consols-
'tion which'brigh tened his last days, anc
assured him he had not lived in vain.
1T is not for us, in the first hour o
our loss, to paint his character or cata'
Ilogue his virtues. Although ior severa
months we have missed the inspiration
OF his presence, and the guidance OF hi
wise counsel, his spirit has never ceased
to animate those chosen to continue hi
orks; and the close bond of sympathy
between the chief and his assistants Ia,
never been broken. We leave his praises
10 the poor, whom he succored; TO tho
lowly, whom he lifted up: to the slave
whose back he saved from the lash; 1,
the oppressed, whose wrongs he made
his own"

occasion OF the death Of the lamented Archbishop

OF the administrator OF the archdiocese,
Vicar General Coskery. Both preares were be-
loved by all and both have been cut on rom this
world, the scene OF almost unparalleled religious
zeal on their part within the short space or three
weeks Of each otner Though DR.. COsKery was so
i'll on the day OF the imposing obsequies Of Arch
bishop Spalding that could not rise from his bed
no one dreamed that his disease would prove fatal
and even after he became much worse his ply
siclans Doctors O'UonOvan and Buckler, had great
faith In Father Coskery's extraordinary vitality and
did not until the very last moment, so sanguine
we're they OF the ability OF their patient to sustain
the ravages of the fever, relinqush their conviction
that his life would be preserved.
The remains OF the deceased were embalmed ON
wednesday and were laid in state in the southwest
corner OF the cathedral residence. The bodv rODed
