Words of Truth and Sober
nPSS.

Hon. II. S. Neal, in a communica-
ton to the Ironton Register, after
stating the real facts connected with
the Louisiana affairs says:
Now, what law was violated by
Gen. DeTrobriand? What unwar-
rantable interference was he guilty
of? What rights of the people of
Louisiana did he trample on? All
that he did was to remove some law
less persons, who were illegally in
terfereing with proper Organization
of the Legislature. Nothing more;
and instead of being censured for
this he deserved the thanks of every
law-abiding, orderly citizen of our
country. In what light does it place
these gentlemen, who have been so
fierce to condemn and denounce?
They show themselves champions of
the mob, the advocates ofany illegali-
ty that will give them political ad-
vantage, the apologists of murderers
and assassins, and,. as in 1861, the
sympathizers and defenders of those,
who sought to destroy the Union and
who deluged the land with the blood
of our best young men.
Let not the people be deceived. All
that has been done by President
Grant and his advisers and by the
gallant and patriotic General Sheri
dan, is in the interests of good order
and of lawful government; and it
will be time enough for us to feel
anxious about our constitutional lib
critics, when something has been
done to infringe upon them. In
1861, we were assured that the Gen
eral Government had no power to
coerce a State; no authority to sup
press the rebellion then existing in
all the Southern States; and the
rebels said then as now, "Let us
alone" The people thought other,
wise; they quickly expelled from
office every man, who entertained
such opinions, or who sympathized
with the rebels in their wicked at
tempt to destroy the Union; and,
thanks to the strong arms and brave
hearts of our s'gallant boys in blue, :"
the rebellion was suppressed and the
Union restored. Now, the same men
who were willing to have the Union
destroyed, who prayed for and labor
ed for the success of the rebellion,
are today denouncing President
Grant, General Sheridan and every
other person who are endeavoring to
secure equal and just rights to all
classes of our people, the rich and
the poor, those of high or low estate,
and thereby stregthen and perpetu-
ate Republican institutions, and are
insisting that the people shall turn
out of Office those true and trusted
leaders, who directed the affairs of
this government through all the dark
days of the rebellion, and elevate to
power and Office those who fought to
destroy the Union, with their allies
md sympathizers in the North. 1t
is the hiss of the same old Copper
head, and his bite will be as danger
GUS and fatal as in 1861.

FIRE!-The first fire that has oc
Cured within our corporation limits
for more than year, broke out last
Sunday morning about 10 o'clock, in
the residence of Mrs Dietz, on West
Walnut street. The fremen and
citizens were promptly on hand, and
the flames were extinguished with
a loss of about 5000 to the building
and furniture, most of the latter be-
ing saved No insurance, but we un
derstand that the loss has been near
ly made good by a collection taken
up for Mrs. Dietz, who is poor but
worthy widow, with several children.
$50 were contributed by the Presby-
terian church, on Sunday evening.

The Bylaws of Journalism

1. Be brief. This is the age of
telegraphs and stenography.
2. Be pointed. Don't write all
around a subject without hitting it..
3. State facts, but don't stop to
moralize. It's a drowsy subject.
Let the reader do his own dreaming.
4. Eschew preface. Plunge at
once into your subject, like swim
mer into cold water.
5. If you have written sentence
that you think particularly fine draw
your pen through it. A pet child is
always the worst in the family.
6. Condense. Make sure that
you really have an idea, and then re-
cord it in the shortest possible terms.
We want thoughts in their quintes-
sence.
7. When your article is complet
ed, strike out nine-tenths of the adj
.ectives.

The Ohio State Journal has this to
say of the recent speech of Senator
Sherman on the Louisiana question
"It would be a grand thing for
right and truth, if copy of Senator
Sherman's speech on the Louisiana
question could be put in the hands
and more, in the minds apd hearts
of every voter in the UnitA, States.
There is such clearness of staSment,
such evident candor and truthN fess,
such love of law and rightand justice,
in it, as would be conclusive to any
just mind. And we have an unflinch-
ing faith in the sober second thought
of the people. However much par
tisans may be warped in Judgment
by the exigencies of party, the peo-
pie are trustworthy in the outcome
They have an almost inspired faculty
for reaching the true inwardness OF
things"

An able critic writes: "a careful
reading of the Introductory chapters
of DR.. Hollands new serial in Serb
ner's Monthly, gives good promise of
what the story is to be, and the op-
ening is more brilliant than any of
DR.. Hollands previous novels, in the
quaintness of the characters and the
delicate outline of the plot; the dia-
logue is particularly striking"

THE TRIBlNB FOR 1875.
Cheaper and Better than Ever.
POSTAGE FREE TO SUBSCRIBERS.

POSTAGE FREE TO SUBSCRl BERS.
During the year 1874 the position of The TRIBUNE
as the ''eadirg American newspaper" has come to
be generally recognized. Politically it maintains
with its old fervor its old Gospel of Freedom and
Equality, but maintains its independence of party
dictation; and has rarely, in its whole history,
found its political recommendations much heed
ed by both parties, or thoroughly vindicated by
the people as during the past twelvemonth. Its
bitterest foes, while assang it ercely of old
on political or other grounds, never now question
its pre-eminence as newspaper. 1t is confessedly
the foremost in the country. 1t has won the posi-
ton and it means TO hold it by the employment of
the best ability, by the most watchful, conscen-
tious attention, and by the most lavish expendi-
ture of money to procure whatever money will buy,
in its readers service. Its expen' itlres in this
way during the past year were over One Million
and Half of Dollars. For the results of this out
lay it asks from each single subscriber to the
WEEKLY Two Dollars from each subscriber in
q Club of thirty or more, One Dollar; and it pays
the postage itself. Persons not familiar with The
Weekly Tribune, or former subscribers whe may
be uncertain about its present standing and merits
are invited to take il short time on trial. ANY
one may order it from until the list of Februa-
ry next, for one, tvro three months at the rate
Of TEN CENTS PER MONTH, and this, after the st
o. January, postage paid.
In future NO EXTRA CHARGE will be made
for addressing papers to each member of club,
and postmasters who desire will receive packages
with each paper addressed to its owner at the low
est possible prce-practically reduction of thirty
cents year from the previous lowest club rates.
After Jan. l. 1875, the postage on all editions of
the Tribune will be paid by the Office without
charge to the subscriber. The Weekly Tribune
thus becomes to subscribers in clubs the cheapest,
as it has long been the best paper published.
