THE NEW-YORK TRIBUNE. For 1879 THE TRIBUNE hopes to continue with increasing success the Work and the methods which through the year now ending have won such popular ap. proval and borne such ample fruit.

A year ago THE TRIBUNE pointed out the danger to the tranquility of the country, to the Treasury, the currency and the National honor, from the alliance then forming between the Solid South and Tammany Hall. It declared that against this danger the old party of freedom, still the party of the Churches and the Schoolhouses, was the only bulwark: and in behalf of that party it renewed the old appeal to the National conscience, and the enlightened self-interest of the tax-payers.

In all this everts have justified it. The year has disclosed the danger THE TRIBUNE predicted, and brought the deliverance it promised. It now asks those who think well of what it did in this eventful year to help widen yet further its influence by increasing its circulation for the next. It labored to harmonize the Republican party; to divert Republicans from attacks upon each other to attacks upon the common enemy. It exposed Southern claims. It denounced the Southern suppression of the negro vote. tresisted debasement of the currency. It endeavored to ustain the Treasury in ad aving to specie payments. It strove to promote a practical reform in the Civil Service. by vindicated the legitimacy of the Republican Administration. It crushed assailants by demonstrating the infamous efforts of the Democratic leaders to buy the Presidency ministration has declared that the Republican party and the country owe THE TRIBUNE a debt of gratitude so great that, despairing of full payment immediately, oney opposed to the administration are every where heartily expressing similar opinions. THE TRIBUNE NOW Warns the country that, inspiring as the 1 fe elect ons have been, reve do not end the danger. The Democrats and the Greenbackers, if united, could have thbegin with, as well as the evidence of the control their union would give in many of to bersed the verdict. They may be united next time. They already have the Solid South the Western States. To prevent such a union from sweeping the country we must keep the Republican party in the highest state of discipline and efficiency, and must educate the voters. If friends know any better agency for such political education than THE TRIBUNE, by all means use it; if not, they surely ought to make every effort to push THE

This is the cheapest, and, for remote country readers, the best edition 1 THE TRIBUNE published. It contains sixteen pages. and is in convenient form or binding.
