CoRNEAL SKINKLE has presented The Tribune with portion of a copy of a Tippecanoe Almanac printed in 1841. In those days campaigns for the Presi dency were carried on largely by the publication and distribution of alma macs. There were no facilities that would permit the distribution of cur rent matter in those days, so the whole campaign had to be one volume and such distribution given as was practic- able. Intermingled with the calendars of the months which gave exhaustive information as to the changes of the moon, the signs, etc., are stories of the life of Gen. Harrison, in whose in- terest the publication was gotten up. The method of campaigning then was very far from the bitterness and strenuousness that eharacterizes the campaigns of the present day.
