| Tribune. We have now got greeley ana Me-
lralh in cleft stick, and there we mean to keep
them, as Prospero threatened to keep Ariel until
he had expiated his misdeeds. We shall do the
same TO Greeley and McIlrath of the Tribune
They have given the authority on which they
based the sander published by them last summer,
charging with having been hired by locofoco
committee of this city, and that authority is a per-
son by the name of "H. Dewey hailing from
the " Paclhc Hotel, New York. He states that
responsible men, in Wilkesbarre told him that
!, James Gordon Bennett, had made such declara-
tions In that town. We now call upon Greeley
and Mcllrath, and their endorser, " H. Dewey"
of the Pacific Hotel, New York." to bring forth
responsible men" in Wilkesbarre, Pennsylvania,
who heard James Gordon Bennett make any de-
clarations of that kind If they wish to retain any
reputation or any character, Greeley and McIlrath
and their endorser, must bring out their respon-
sible man" at once. Who are these responsible
men in Wikesbarre," who heard us make any
such declaratonsl Let us know who they are.
Let us hear them. Let US at once have their
names.


As to the SANDER itself, and to the declarations
attributed to us by any persons, pronounce them
false from beginning to end, in any view in which
they can be taken. No such declarations ever
passed our lips, either at Wkesbarre or any other
part OF the country, and we defy any responsible
person to make any affirmation TO the contrary
We could never have talked in such way.
| II is utterly foreign and contrary to our charac
ter, as is well known to any one who is personally
acquainted with us. We have too great contempt
for the talents of locofoco committees, or whig
committees, or committees of any party, ever to
| think tor one mement of allowing them the slight
| est interference with our journal. There is per-
haps no person in this world that has such unmiti-
gated contempt as we have for the talents morals
position, and everything connected with the politI-
clans who figure on committees, whether whig Or
| locofoco. Our views Of journalism are altogether
| different, and we shall prove to the world, by
abundant evidence, that our paper is indebted to
| no committee, and to no set of politicians, mean
| and contemplate as they are, whether whig, loco
oce, or "native, for the reputation and populari-
ty which 1t now enjoys amongst the American peo.
| pie


With respect to the other OUTRAGEOUS sander of
Greeley and McElrath-these organized slanderers
OF party-hat we are ignorant of American af
falrs, we are perfectly willing that the community
| should decide that question. 1t is now more than
nve and twenty years since we have been studying
| American affairs. We were the first editor, or the
hrst person connected with any press in this coun-
try, that introduced the comprehensive and philo-
sophlcal discussion of money matters and banking
affairs here. We were the first editor who intro
| dsced philosophical and scientific view of poll
tcal statistics IN the various elections, and of the
probable results and effects On every great ques-
ton OF American affairs we have displayed in our
writings for the last twenty five years. more COM
| preheAsive and accurate knowledge than any one
connected with the press in this CITY, To 60 no far
ther back than the last election, who was tthat form
ed the most correct opinion with respect the posi-
ton OF the two parties and of the probable result of


that election? Did we not see Greeley dE McElrath,
like consummate blockheads as they are, prophecy
| ing six months before the result was known that
Mr.. Clay would have twenty thousand majority in
this city Did we not see them gnorantly putting
forth such ridiculous statements without ever


thinking Of the important element of abolition, and
the vote which the abolitioniss would poll, until
we told them? Did they not lose sums of money


In consequence Of their utter ignorance of the af-
fairs of their own party, and did not many Of their
friends, depending on their judgment and accuracy
lose thousands and thousands Of dollars And these
are the ignorant fellows-ignorant of common
sense-who pretend to talk of our knowledge
of American affairs! We might 60 on and re-
cite many other instances of their gross ignorance
of every thing connected with newspapers. Look
at their fabricated news by the Oxford. Any per-
son OF common sense, with no experience In news
paper business would have known that news to have
been fabricated, but with a greenness that was
greener than the Green Mountains of Vermont, they
swallowed it, published it, believed it, and we sup
pose believe it still!


We call upon these green editors, Greeley and
McElrath,w with altheir philosophy and Fourierism,
and all their folly and nonsense, to come FORTH
Give us the Irresponsible men, in Wilkesbarre, who
ever heard James Gordon Bennett make the decla-
ration that he had hired his paper to locofoco
committee. Come forth with your names


THE NEW Posr OFFICE have repeatedly
mentioned the gross mismanagement of business
at the post office in this city. The clerks do all
they can and the difficulty is not, therefore, with
them. We hope that the interest of our merchants
will be better taken oare of under the administra.
tion of Mr.. Polk. We add one or two serious
complaints from Hartford and Boston,


There must be very bad management in the New York
