N.»
Mr. Greeley for the II. S. Senate.
We observe that there is a growing senti-
ment, which has attained a surprising una-
nimity since the recent Slate elections, in fa-
vor of Mr. Greeley as the successor of Judge
Harris, whose term expires on' the 4th of
March next. All concede Mr. Greeley's emi-
ment abilities and whateverof eccentricity
he may have at times portrayed, has
been more than atoned for by his consistent,
earnest labors during the late canvass. While
other journals have followed like laggards
the irresistable currents of popular senti-
ment, the Tribune has taken advanced cour-
ageous position and valiantly maintained its
grounds against all opposition. We
know Judge Harris personally and well,
and a more upright man does not grace'the
Halls .of Congress, but we all remember
that but for the thimbie rigging jugglery of
Thurlow Weed, Mr. Greeley would have
had this just and fitting recognition of the
great services he has rendered the purty cou-
farred upon him six years ago. Mr. Weed
has since iormally withdrawn from the Re-
publican party, and although he has since
had fitful periods of hovering about our
camp, it has only been, apparently, that he
might the better convey information and aid
to our enemies. We presume that M. Weed’s
personal hostility to Mr. Greeley would now
prove as impotent as his opposition to the
Republican‘ticket has done.
The loyal millions of the country could
not be more sincerely gratified than in seal-
ing the result of the 110ny contested election
in the Empire State, by electing Mr. Greeley
to the United States Senate.

Save the Trees.
The carelessness and indifference manifest-
ed by many for the preservation of the shade
trees so sparingly set along our streets are
simply unbearable. Our attention has been
especially attracted to the trees on either side
of Union Avenue from the Methodist church
to Union Park. There is scarcely a tree but
what has been barked by horses, the result
of the prevalent, but wicked custom of hitch.
ing to trees. » We plead for the life and
growth of the young trees the hands of ,oare
and hopeful trust have set out, for we have
been ourselves an especial sufferer. Will
not our horse friends give a thought before
they hitch to a tree. It is more than the loss
of a few dollars and no gentleman should be
guilty of the wrong.

For the Gazette.
. , That quaint old sayinnghich baspassed
i'n'to'a proverb, “That it is better to suffer
wrong than to do wr orig," has been pretty
well exemplified since the rebellion collaps-
ed iu the numerous removals from Oflice of
the tried and true friends of the government,
of men who, had no desire for' office or the
emoluments which it conferred, butsoleiy
the good Of the country and the wellbeing
of its institutions and people; many men of
talents and ability accepted the positions of
postmaster, collector of customs and a mul-
titude of other offices, not by their Own
seeking entirely, but through the urgent so-
licitations of friends who in order‘that the
office and position might be made honorable
and dignified by their sterling qualifications,
urged their-appointment, 'so that; the oppo-
nents of the party with whom they had al-V
lied themselves should not have, it to say
that the ofilces‘went abegging for men ca-
pable of filling them. Many ref-these men
whose talents fitted them fer better business,
left employment which might have proved
more lucrative toghe m, in order to gratify
these and the party they had acted With, and
had not looked forward for anything better.
during this administration. aod now when
after two years they are. turned out. by the
very men who put them in, for no other rea-
son than they could‘not sell'themselves‘ body
and soul 'fOr ,the two remaining years,» and
abandon their principles, compromise their
manhood and sell themselves for .3 few‘
“stamps,” and all for tltc mere’sake of a par:‘
ty gotten up by'a' few weak minded politi.
ticians whose .policy and party they see
dwindling away like the dew before the sun;
And, because they thus not, they "are
told they are standing in the way of a gov-
ernmental policy 'which is to bring harmony
out of discord, love and fraternal feeling out
of Irate, jealousy and misrule; and they are
also told that the only bope'ipr tbc future
peace-is in the adoption 'of everything that
emanates from the White House, whether it
be politic ’ or not; no questions must be'
asked and no opinions advanced on the sub-
ject. Every honorable just and true mun
reads, considers and weighs these matters,
and, after taking a review of the past sees no
just cause to change his course or to follow a
policy which is condemned by three-fourths
of the. people; they see this policy of the
President and his supporters made the di-
rect issue in all our municipal and state elec-
tions, and that the verdict of the great mass
of the people at the ballot box is againstit.
Considering it dangerous to liberty and to
the future prosperity of » the govern-
ment,1as well as to the great principles of
equality and justice, which lie at the founda-
tions of allvgood government, the question
comesup, What reason has the President
with this policy? is it his duty to mark out
the terms of settlement for the restoration-
of the government and distribute the places
of profit and power to those who will sirp-;
port his doings, and turn out man whose;
characters stund unimpeaclted‘, and. who ask,
no favors at their hands but to be'dealt with
justly and honestly. We‘ think Congress
when it assembles will check this wholeshle
business; the country is sick and tired of
this course of procedure they have seen too
many stoop tOLdo his bidding. But? let us
take courage, we still have men who will:
stand fast, whose principles cannot be sha-

To The Debilitated and the Decrepid.
For general debility and exhaustion of the powers
ofriature, whether occasioned by sickness, fast liv‘
ing, constitutional decay, old age, or any other
physical or mental cause, the one thing medial and
indispensable I is HOSTETTER'S CELEBRATED
STOMACII BITTERS. When the fire oflife seems
to be absolutely dying out in the system, and the
mind, sympathiziag witli tlicbody', is reduced it].
most to uslate of iiubecility, this mighty Restorative
seems, as it; were, to lift the sufferer out Of the
Slough of Despoud and recruit and "reinvigorate botlt
tlie frh'mc'niid the in'tcll'c'ct.‘ An‘ ‘oi‘d fu'rmer in the
Vallcy of the Monongahela writes thus to Dr. Hos
- tetter‘: “I can compare thev’operution" of yourBittcrs
.upon me. to ”nothing but the effect of n. ' rain after a
long dry spell in the fall Of the year. The rain full-
ing on the. meadows stn‘rts'thc second crop of grass,
aiidyonr wholesome medicine seems to have started
a second crop oflifc and spirits in, rue." And this
is ‘troly thooil‘octpfathjsmljaleful, and powcrful prep.
oration. Ladicslof weak constitution, (or whose
strength has been impaired _by sickness or age, find
it. a most emcacious and delightful Tonic, and it is
administered with great success ,in marasmus or
\V‘itrllllg of the flesh, to’ young children. In fact, it
is a,mncltesafcr and surer cordial for the nursery than

perfect: conviction and knowledge Of the benefits of
3ALLEN‘S LUNG BALSAM in curing the most deep
seated PULMONARY Consumrrors i' I have witness-
_ ed its efi‘gcts on the young and the old, and Ican tru-
ly say thht itis by far the best cxpectorant remed
with which I am acquainted. For coughs, and a l
_tbe early stages ofLung'com laints,=I bel eve it to be
a certain cure, and if every amilyvv‘ould keep it by
,them,,ready to administer, upon the first appearance
of disease about-the lungs, there would be ve.i)‘|yl few

organs (the Lun s), and without prodbucing constipa-

morbid secretions to a healthy state. .
