This may be deemed 'Hionourable competition" by the Times concern, but it is decidedly e^?e-English. Whether the Tribune prints less or more copies since the loss of Greeley, its immortal founder, it has certainly greatly improved in character by its noble emancipation from the Procrustean bonds and bandages of partisanship. Like the Herald — the greatest /z^r^j^-paper in the world — the course of the Tribune is now as free and refreshing as the river that " windeth at its own sweet will." And ...no paper that is not free is worth buying or reading. Party newspapers are filled with personal puffs and political tirades, unjust to their objects and insulting to the intelligence of the reader. AMERICAN PRESS SCANDALS.
