Tlfar Jfows Tj/ic Tfew-S/or/c TJrihuno The agitation and alarm in the public mind at thii time give an extraordinary value to the services of a paper like The Tribune. There is a general reaction among all intelligent classes against the exaggeration, extravagance, bogus neves, guesswork and typographical hysterics of the sensational papers. The Tribune is the only morning newspaper in Neve- York, not of this class, which not only enjoys the comprehensive Associated Press service but has an elaborate system of special dispatches from its own representatives at every Camp, in every Army and with the Fleets. > , The paper which will suit you the best and give you the most is The Tribune, tt does not magnify skirmishes into terrible battles; and it does not exaggerate things of which it has special and exclusive rws out of all proportion to their sborlance. ** Its scrupulous desire to give the exact truth and nothing else is well known to the Army and Navy. In consequence, its correspondents have special facilities for teaming the exact facts. • TV Tribunr It alto pertlnlarlg tfroap is Bunmcu Jews, eocvriap f*e metiers ‘ iok mm prartics! mas mast Bore /or ncgufW conduct of hit Batiarsa.
