 FOR 1878.

 The Tribune has long enjoyed the dis function of the laI gest circulation al0OnR the best people. During the year 1878 II will spend more labor aud money than ev- CT before to deserve that preeminence. 1t secured, and means to retaln 1t, by becom. Ing the medium of the best thought and the voice of the best conscience of the time. by keeping abreast of the highest progress, favoring the freest discussion, hearing all sides. appealing always To the best i' telligence and the purest morality, and refusln- to cater to the tastes of the vile or the prejudtces of the ignorant. The stantly widening political influence It CD, joys, are the best proofs that It IS still faithful to these early secrets of Its strength.
 The Tribune earnestly strove for the election of President Hayes, and it gives of hls Administration. Doubtlng the wis dom of merhuds sometimes taken by hls suhOrdlnates, and crltlclsing with entire fl eadOm hls occasional mistakes, It stlH thinks it the duty of the hour to hold to- gether and strengthen the party that elect' cd and alone sustalns him. It believes tn . day of danger to the negro has passed, an as that Q danger to the Tax Pa, CT has come. The Solid South (st last 1n full control of chance tO get at the National Treasury. aud get back what it lost by the war. Only 47 Northern votes are needed. If Iammanv Hall could furnish New York, then Indiana. or Conneoslcut and New us aud against It the old party of Free, dom, still the party of the Churches and the School Houses, is the only bulwark. 1t alone can keep the Solid South from grasplng the National G ,vernment in 1880. 1t alone can save us, eveu now, from the threatened Democratic abandOnment of resumption and renewed debasement of the currency, which would heedlesslv and most wlckedlv cueck the revival of busl' ness, and treble the country's burdens. In behalf the cid party. therefore, The Tri' bune renews the d appeal to the Nation al cOnBclence, the National honor, and the enlightened self'interest of the Tax PayI 0rss
