The agiUtion and alarm in th* public mind at this time give an extraordinary value to the services of a paper like The Tribune. There is a general reaction amemw ail intelligent classes against

. guesswork ical hysterics of the sensational papers. The Tribune is the only morning newspaper in New- York, not of this class, which not only enjoys the comprehensive Associated Press service but has an'nsSoraU system special dispatches from its own

every Army and The paper which

the best and give you the most is The Tribune. It does not magnify skirmishes into terrible battles; and it does not exaggerate things of which it has special and exclusive news but of all proportion to their

importance. “

Its scrupulous desire to giro the exact truth and nothing els* is well known to the Army and Navy. In consequence, its correspondents have special facilities for learning

the exact facts.
