a friend was required for starting the Tribune It began with live huudrcd bona fidesubscribers aud the first morning printed five hundred copies At the end ol the week the expenses amounted to S525 which was thought alarming and extravagant During the past summer in a stogie day theTribunes telegraph bills only one of nnny expenditures have run up to 81500 At the end of three months Thos McElrath took ch t of thebusiness department and for several years it contiuuod to be published by Greeley McElrath It 1S1G it was changed to a joint stockconcern of 100 shares with a parvalue of 1000

upon their staffs jt is becoming more and more apparent that in somedepartments of the greatest and mustexacting professions of our Limeswomen excel men Greeley was born in Amherst Hillsborough county NewHampshire and is now fiftyfive years old lie is a member of Dr E ilChapins Uni verbalist church where he may bo seen regularly sleeping almost any Sunday in the year Probably he is not alwaysslumbering so soundly as he seems On oue occasion after nodding all through a cermon by the famous Charming he went immediately to his office and wrote an abstract of it nearly a column in length which proved an exceedingly graphic spirited and faith ul report Hisfamily resides upon his farm thirty miles abovy New York on tho Harlem Putilroad His wife has been an invalid for several years They have had seven childrenonly two of whom arc now living Greeley spends ever Saturdayupon his farm entering into all itsdetails working zealously at chopping wood digging potatoes and other manual labor Like most amateur farmers be finds it an expensive luxury and doubtless all bis farm products cost him four or five time the amount he would have to pay lor them iu the New York market Huthis little estate is picturesque and beautiful and it enables him to practice all his farming theories lie declares ihat while all themoney he cver spent in ariyLhiug else disappeared without leaving any ap 1 orture he can see the hole where every dollar iu vested iu his farm went through Duriug the week he spends his tys at a room in Eighth street where he was compelled whilewriting his history to shut himself up to avoid interruption Evening usually finds him iu the Tribuneeditorial room writiug for the next days paper or talking to visitois who swarm upon him by fifties aud by hundreds He is probably the hardest work ing journalist in the world During the last two years in addition to the labor upn his history which would have employed an ordinary author five or six years when at boms ho has averaged more than a column of editorial for each issue of the Daily Tribune besides writing fifteen or twenty private letters dai ly disposing of visitors with whom he holds a nightly levee delivering lectures and political speeches by the score and sometimescontributing to other newspapers andmagazines Owning only tan shares in the f tock of the Tribune Greeley con trols its editorial course as fully as when he was sole proprietorEvery year the association goes through the form of reelecting him editor by a unanimous vote In private lile life Greeley isliberal and openhanded giving freely to all who claim to be needy His charities arc not alwaysdiscriminating but the gifts of those whoinvariable give are seldom large He has assisted hundreds of young men and old men in pecuniary misfor tune lie preserves as relics notes amounting to nearly fifty thousand dollars chiefly from persons whom lie assisted out of friendliness alone n ites which iu the aggregate are barely worth the paper they arc written upon Many strangersapply to him for aid A visitor from New Hampshire once asked for a few dollars to pay his passage home telling some plausible story about beiug disappointed in monoy and promising to return the amount by the first mail He stated that lie had formerly btcn a merchant pur chasing goods iu Now 1 ork but had since met with a misfortune

such a journal isnu creating and shaping public opinion Of any prominent article which runs through all tho editions of the Tribune about a quarter of a million of copies are printed Counting four

fortune visited a lunatic asylum where the treatment consisted chiefly iu forcing thepatient to stand iu tubs of cold water those slightly affected up to the knees other whose cases were graver up to the middle whilepersons very seriously ill were immersed up to the neck The visitor entered into conversation with one of the patients who seemed to have some curiosity to know how the strauger passed his time out of doors I have horses and grayhounds for coursing said the latter inreply to tho others question Ah they are very expensive Yes they cost me a great deal of money in the year but they arc the best of their kind Have you anything more I have a pack of hounds for hunting the fox Aud they cost a great deal too A great deal And 1 have birds for hawking I see birds for hunting birds And these swell up the expense 1 dare say You may sny that for they are not common iu this country Aud then I sometimes go out with my un accompanied by a setter and a retriever And these are expensive too Of course After all it is not the animals ot themselves that run away with the money there must be men you know to feed and look af ter them houses to lodge them in in short the whole sportingestablshment I sec I see I You have horses hounds setters retrievers hawks men and all for the capture of fox and birds What an enormous revenue they must cost you Now what I want to know is this wha return do they pay What does your years sporting produce V hy we kill a fox now and then only they arc getting rather scarce hereabouts and we seldom bag less than fifty brace of birds each sea son 11 Hark said the lunatic looking anxiously around him My friend iu an earnest whisper them is ate behind you take my adviee and get out or this while you arc safe Dont let the Doctor get his eyes upon you Ho ducks us to some purpose but as sure as you are a living man he will drown rou The gentleman looked serious as he passed on Perhaps ho thought that he was as mad as the inmate of the asylum A Word for Wives Little wives if ever ahalfsuppressed sigh finds place with you or a half unloving word escapes you to tlie husband whom you love let your heart go back to some tender word in those first love darsremember how you loved him then how tenderly ho wooed you how 1 timidly you responded and if you can feel that you have not grownunworthy trust him for tho same good love now If you do feel that you have become less lovable andattractive than you then were turn by all that you love on earth or hope for in heaven turn back and be the pa L tern ot loveliness that won him be tho

Miss Martineau says ofherself 7 that she is the slowest of readers sometimes a page iu an hour but then what she reads she makes her own Girls read too much and think too little I will answer for i that there arc few girls of eighteen who have not read more books than 1 have and as to religious books I can count on my fingers in twominutes all I have read but then they are mine Multifarious reading weakens the mind more than doing nothiug for it becomes a necessity at lastliktsniokitig and is an excuc for the mind to He dormant whilst thought is poured in and runs through a clcui sliura

the most uece ful is the little talk ami tattle which in some charmed circlej iscourteously styled conversation How hum m beings can live ou such meagre fare how continue existence in such a famine of

never a hint on their tombstones that they died at last of eousumptiou of the head and marasmus of the heart The whole universe of God spreading out its splendors andterrors pleading for their attention and they wonder where MrsSomebody got that divine ribbon to her bonnet The whole world ofliterature through its thousand trumps of fame adjuring them to regard its garnered stones of emotiou aud they think Its high time if John intends to marry Sarah for him to pop the question When to be sure this frippery is spiced with a Uttle envy and malice and prepares its dishes of scandal and nice bits of detraction it become endowed with a slight venomous vitality which does pretty well in the absence of soul to carry on the machinery of living if not the reality cfJifo YliipLC A True L uly I was once walking a shortdistance behind a very handsomely dressed young girl and thinking us I looked at her beautiful clothes I wonder if she takes half as much pains with her heart as she does with

back before he could get through ait said the young girl springing lightly forward Ill hold the gate open And she held the gate until he passed iu andreceived his thanks with a pleasant sinile as she

of the Doctor A gentleman of fortune visited a lunatic asylum where the treatment consisted chiefly iu forcing thepatient to stand iu tubs of cold water those slightly affected up to the knees other whose cases were graver up to the middle whilepersons very seriously ill were immersed up to the neck The visitor entered into conversation with one of the patients who seemed to have some curiosity to know how the strauger passed his time out of doors I have horses and grayhounds for coursing said the latter inreply to tho others question Ah they are very expensive Yes they cost me a great deal of money in the year but they arc the best of their kind Have you anything more I have a pack of hounds for hunting the fox Aud they cost a great deal too A great deal And 1 have birds for hawking I see birds for hunting birds And these swell up the expense 1 dare say You may sny that for they are not common iu this country Aud then I sometimes go out with my un accompanied by a setter and a retriever And these are expensive too Of course After all it is not the animals ot themselves that run away with the money there must be men you know to feed and look af ter them houses to lodge them in in short the whole sportingestablshment I sec I see I You have horses hounds setters retrievers hawks men and all for the capture of fox and birds What an enormous revenue they must cost you Now what I want to know is this wha return do they pay What does your years sporting produce V hy we kill a fox now and then only they arc getting rather scarce hereabouts and we seldom bag less than fifty brace of birds each sea son 11 Hark said the lunatic looking anxiously around him My friend iu an earnest whisper them is ate behind you take my adviee and get out or this while you arc safe Dont let the Doctor get his eyes upon you Ho ducks us to some purpose but as sure as you are a living man he will drown rou The gentleman looked serious as he passed on Perhaps ho thought that he was as mad as the inmate of the asylum A Word for Wives Little wives if ever ahalfsuppressed sigh finds place with you or a half unloving word escapes you to tlie husband whom you love let your heart go back to some tender word in those first love darsremember how you loved him then how tenderly ho wooed you how 1 timidly you responded and if you can feel that you have not grownunworthy trust him for tho same good love now If you do feel that you have become less lovable andattractive than you then were turn by all that you love on earth or hope for in heaven turn back and be the pa L tern ot loveliness that won him be tho dear one yourattractions made you then Be the gentle loving winning maiden still and doubt not the lover you admired will live forever iu your husband Nestle in his side cling to his love apd lot his confi dence ill you never tail aud iny word for it the diusband will be dearer than the lover ever was Above all things do not forget the love h gave you first Do not seek to emancipate yourself do not strive lo musx yourself and become a Lucy Stone or a Rev Miss Drown but love the higher honor ordained by our Saviour of old that of a loving wife A happy wife
