NEW York. November 30-The IEi-
Dune says: "The melancholy death of
the editor and founder of the Tribune,
though for few days it had been ex-
rected by his family and intimate friends,
falls upon us with ell the shock OF sud-
den calamity. He had reached, indeed,
q ripe old age; but time had not laid it's
whitening touch upon him. His splcn-
did constitution easily bore the strain of
enormous labor. His mind was as fresh,
and strong, and suggestive as in the
prime of life. His generous impulses
were unchilled by disheartening expert
enoe. Through the trying campaign
which has just closed, his physical vigor,
his tact and his intellectual activity aur-
prised even those who knew him best.
and seemed to promise many years of
usefulness. It is certain that no history
of the most critical period in our no
tional life can be written in which Ho-
race Greeley shall not be conspicuous
figure. But the noblest career, in his
eyes. was TINT which is given up to
others wants. The successful life was
that which is worn out in conflict with
wrong and woe. The only ambition
worth following was the ambition to al
leviate human misery, and leave the
world little better than he found it.
That he had done it was the consolation
vhich h-ightened hia last days. end az
sured him he had not lived in vain. It
is not for us, in the first hour OF our
loss, to paint his character or catalogue
his virtues; although for several months
we have missed the inspiration of his
presence and the guidance of his wise
counsel. His spirit has never ceased to
animate those chosen to continue his
w6fks. and the close bond of sympathy
between the chief and his assistants has
never been broken. We leave his praises
to the poor, whom he succored; to the
lowly, whom he lifted up; to the slave,
whose back lie saved from the LASH. to
the oppressed, whose wrongs he made
his own"
The Herald. in it's editorial on Gree
ley, says: "He has. in mistaken aspi-
ration for higher field of usefulness,
and power, and glory, than journalism,
fallen sacrifice to his political ambition.
He had failed to appreciate the COM
manding position which he had secured
as leading American journalist. and
leaving it to pursue the ignis fatuus of
the Presidency, he dropped the sub
stance for the shadow of o great distinc-
ton. Otherwise, the history of the en-
trious and useful career are fnl! of en-
couragements to young men, who, with.
out capital, personal influence or power
full friends, have the battle OF life before
them"
