NEW YORK TRIBUNE.

"THE LEADING AMERICAN NEWSPAPER."

[ocr errors]

BETTER THAN EVER.

The new TRIBUNE of to-day, like the old TRIBUNE of the past. is to be consecrated to the develop ment of ideas, the exposition of principles, and the promulgation of truth."

The unanimous and unsolicited verdict of the hundreds of thousands of readers of THE TRIBUNE, is that the paper was never so good as at the present time. During the past year it has enlarged its field and improved its facilities in every direction, and closes the year 1874 with most encouraging prospects. THE TRIBUNE, however, believes in deeds rather than in words, in results rather than in promises. It points to its record and its columns for the past twelve months as the best evidence of what it has done, and the most satisfactory pledge of what it will do. All the distinctive features of the paper will be preserved and strengthened; the " Extras," whose sale has reached hundreds of thousands, will be continued; the front of its new building completed, and the present admitted pre-eminence of the paper, not only maintained, but still further advanced.

"The change of management, in consequence of Mr. Greeley's death, resulted in a change of its character, which is a marked improvement in some respects, and the new paper shows its ent rprise in its extensive and varied correspondence, its full reports of lectures and sermons, its literary notices, and its news."New York Graphic. (Independent.

THE TRIBUNE is certainly a remarkable newspaper, some of its issues presenting a mass of scientific and literary information which would form a valuable book, while the variety of talent at its disposal is such as it never had before."-New York Evening Mail.

"We regard THE TRIBUNE as one of the best and ablest news-1 papers ever published. The business success it is achieving is certainly well earned."-Troy (N. Y.) Times. (Administration Republican.)

"THE TRIBUNE feels just pride in the success it has achieved. and in the position it has secure in the front rank of the leading journals of the world. Its honorable record is a glory to all the Press."-Albany Argus. (Demo cratic.)

"It is a great newspaper the public care for, and they have it in THE TRIBUNE, more so than in any other paper in this or any other country. It is a greater newspaper to day than at any previous time in its history." New York Commercial Advertiser (Administration Republican.)

THE TRIBUNE daily spreads such a feast of good things before its readers, that they have no reason to complain.
