"7,HE LEADING AMERICAN NEWS.
PAPEER."
THE new YORK TRIBUNE
FOR 1850.

FOR 1850.
During the coming Presidential year,
THE TRIBUNE will be more effective
agency than everfor telling the news
best worth knowing and for enforcing
sound politics. From the day the war
| closed it has been most anxious for an
end of sectional strise. But it saw two
wears ago. and WAS the first to proclaim
| the new danger to the country from the
revived alliance of the Solid South and
Tammany Hall. Against that danger 1t
sought to rally the old party of Free
dom and the Union. 1t began by de
manding the abandonment of personal
dislikes, and set the example. 1t called
for an end to attacks upon each other
instead of the enemy; and for the heart
lest agreement upon whatever fit candi-
dates the majority should put up against
the common foe. Since then the tide of
disaster has been turned back; every
doubtful State has been won, and the
omens for National victory were never
more cheering.
THE ETklBUNE'S POSITION.
OF The TRIBUNE's share in all this,
those speak most enthusiastically who
have seen most of the struggle. 1t will
faithfully portray the varying phases of
! the campaign now beginning. 1t will
earnestly strive that the party of Free
dom, Union and the Public Faith may
select the man surest TO win, and surest
| to make good President. But i'll this
crisis it can conceive of no nomination
this party could make that would not be
preferable to the best that could possibly
be supported by the Solid South and
Tammany Hall.
! THE TRIBUNE is now spending more
labor and money than ever before to
hold the distinction it has long enjoyed
of the largest circulation among the best
people. 1t secured, and means to retain
it, by becoming the medium of the best
thought and the voice of the best con-
science of the time, by keeping abreast
of the highest progress. favoring the
freest discussion, hearing all sides, ap-
pealing always to the best intelligence
and the purest morality, and refusing
to cater to the tastes of the vile or the
prejudices of the ignorant.
SPECIAL FEATURES.
The distinctive features of The Tribune
are known to everybody. 1t gives all
the news. 1t has the best correspond
ents, rnC retains them from year to year.
1t is the only paper that maintains a
special telegraphic wire of its own be-
| tween its office and Washington. Its
scientific, literary, artistic and religious
intelligence is the fullest. Its book re-
views are the best. Its commercial and
| financial views is the most exact. Its
type is the largest; and its arrangement
| the most systematic.
THE SEMI-WEEKLY TRIBUNE
is by far the most successful Semi
Weekly in the country, having four
times the circulation of any other in
New York. 1t is specially adapted to
the large class of intelligent, profession
al or business readers too far from New
York to depend on our papers for the
daily news, who nevertheless want the
feditorials, correspondence, book reviews,
scientific matter, lectures, literary mis-
cellany, ETC., for which The Tribune is
famous. Like The Weekly it contains
sixteen pages, and is in convenient form
for binding.
THE WEEKLY TRIBUNE
remains the great favorite of our sub
stantial country population, and has the
largest circulation of any Weekly issued
from the Office of Daily paper in New
York, or, SO far as we know, in the Uni
ted States. 1t revises and cOndenses all
the news of the week into readable
shape. Its agricultural department is
more carefully conducted than ever, and
it has always been considered the best
Its market reports are the official stand
ard for the Dairymen's Association, and
have long been the recognized authority
on cattle, grain and general country pro-
duce. There are special departments for
the young, and for household interests
the new handiwork department, already
extremely popular, gives unusually ac-
curate and comprehensive instructions
in knitting, crocheting, and kindred sub,
jects; while poetry, fiction and the hu,
mOrs of the day are all abundantly sup
piled. The verdict of the tens of thou
sands of old readers who have returned
: to it during the past year is that they
find it better than ever. Increasing pa.
tronage and facilities enable us to re.
duce the rates to the lowest point we
