Whitelaw Reid circumvented the
stockholders of the Tribune who were
endeavoring to secure his removal
from the editorial chair, in a way at
once childlike and bland" but never
theless exceedingly effectual. He
bought fifty of the one hundred shares
of Tribune stock, from Mr.Wm. orion,
president Of one of the large telegraph
companies, and kept his purchase Sc
cret,antil a meeting Of the stockholders
was held, when he made the announce
ment that fell like bomshall among
his opponents. A majority of the trus-
tees and stockholders congratulated
Mr.. Reid upon his coup d'etat, and a
feeling Of satisfaction prevails among
them and the patrons of the Tribune
that Whitelaw is to remain at the head
Of Mr.. Greeleys great newspaper.

The subject OF cooperation among
farmers is beginning to attract very
much attention in all parts Of the coun-
try. At st. Louis, last May, the Ma
tional Agricultural Congress was Or
gained by the consolidation of the
National Agricultural Congress-, and
at once by wise and judicious action
secured the confidence of societies
throughout the country, both collec-
lively and individually. In many parts
of the country district conventions
have been called and numerously at
tended by the farmers, and the resolu-
tions adopted eyince growing ap-
probation of the value and necessity
Of cooperative action.
The american Farmers Aar0cate,
which has espoused the cause Of the
ongress, has, with full confidence in
the growing popularity of this move
ment, been sent to every agricultural
society and to all the newspapers OF
the country, at the individual expense
Of the publishers. It has perseyer-
ingly presented the benefits of the
Congress, and we can heartily com
mend it to the attention of every far
mer. ..t -.r
The Congress holds its next meeting
in May, at indianapolis, Ind, and it
promises to be an occasion of much
interest to agriculturists. Every soci-
ETY. in the country should be represent
ed there.

"Will Governor Warmoth be con-
victed by the Senate upon the articles
Of impeachment passed by the House
of Representatives" is an engross-
ing question among politicians just
now. Our humble opinion is that it
is not the intention of the Senate to
bring the matter to an issue. Already
the prosecution of the trial has been
postponed to the day upon which Mr..
Kellogg's Inauguration as Governor
will take place, and we regard the
postponement as significant Of the
fact that the only object of the Cen
eral Assembly is to keep Warmoth out
Of the way until the new Governor is
fairly in power. A few days will
decide whether our opinion is correct
or erroneous.

The AHakapas Register and Opelou-

fuse to join in the worse than use
less howl Of Indignation and "resis-
lance to the bitter end" that is raised
by the more BourbOnistic Of the for
mer Fusion organs. The CHIEF claims
to be the leader Of that philosophical
portion of the Louisiana Liberal press
which has determined to accept the
tlictum Of the Federal Government,
and endeavor to encourage the Re-
publican State Administration in the
work of reform that has undoubtedly
been commenced And when the
people shall have been freed from the
grasp Of bloated monopolies created
by former legislatures; when the bur
den of taxation shall have been reduced
80 as to bear comparatively with feath-
er's weight upon the property holder;
when Louisiana shall have been re-
deemed and regenerated, then shall
we have earned share of the blessings
that will be bestowed by grateful
people upon those who wrought the
change. We are strong in the faith
that such time will come, and we
advise our brethren of the press to join
us in the good work Of fastening its
arrival. 5- a4 ..-r ..:

"A HAPPY NEW YEAR."

Following close in the wake Of mer-
~ Christmas, and second to it alone
among the holidays, is New Years
Day. which marks the advent Of new
year. For nearly nineteen centuries,
for aught we know to the contrary,
our ancestors have celebrated the re-
currence of this anniversary, and it
would i'll become Is to ignore the an
Gent custom. What more apprOpri-
ate occasion for rejoicing can be Sc
.lected than this There are none of
us but have much to be thankful for
life, health, prosperity, happiness, not
q human being but is blessed with
one or more of these ;; therefore, it is
meet that there should be at least one
day upon which our obligation to the
power which has protected US through
the trials, vicissitudes and dangers Of
life, should specially recur to us. An
Gent usage has selected for this day
that one which is the beginning Of a
new year. SO, dear readers, let us
| not forget, in the midst Of our rejoic-
igs upon New Years Day, to feel crate.
| full for the blessings Of the past, MOI
forgetting to ask their continuance
for the future. Let us cross tht
threshold of 1873 with good resolve!
in our hearts, with malice towards
tnone but good will for all and en-
deavor through the year opening be
| fore us to square our lives by TIN
golden rule, thus securing Happiness
for ourselves by contributing to TIN
happiness Of those around us.
/ Having relieved our mind of thi
sage advice, nothing remains to ren
der this brief article complete, in Oh
estimation, but to wish all our read
ers, old and young alike, very hap
DIV New Year-which we do with Il,
our heart.
