THE IIM ffIIRIMI FOR 1870. A great Presidential Campaign will soon commence. That struggle will determine whether the Government of the United States shall continue to be administered by the party which preserved it from dismemberment or by the men who endeavored to destroy or refused to help save it, in order that Slavery might be maintained. Those who desire the Republican party to remain in power cannot more efficiently contribute to that end than by increasing the circulation of Tan Chicago Tribune in their neighborhoods. Among the leading Republican newspapers none takes a higer rank or -will wield a more potential innueuce in the next Presidential Campaign. Every intelligent citizen will find it indispensable for the facts and arguments it will contain. THB TRIBUNB'S PLATFORM. On the leading measures before the public, Thb Chicago Tribune bolds the following views, believing them to be right as well as Republican: „ 1. A Reform of the Currency, making it as stable and good as gold and silver, without injury to the debtor classes. 2. Reduction of direct State, and indirect National Taxation. 3. Economy and Retrenchment in Pnblic Expenditures; no Bounties or Subsidies of lublic Moneys for Private Schemes, or Payment ot Rebel Losses out of the National Treasury. - 4. An honest maintenance of Public Credit, and Condemnation of Repudiation in any form or shape. 5. State Control and Supervision over Common Carriers and Corporate Monopolies, not to oppress them, but to protect the people. 6. Exposure and Punishment of all Official Corruption and Frauds on the Revenue. “Let no guilty man escape.” 7. Honest and Fit Men for all Offices—giving good Unionists preference over former Secessionists. 8. Sovereignty of the Union in all National Matters; State Rights and Independence in all Local Matters. 9. Election of President by direct vote of the People, without the clumsy and dangerous intervention of Electoral Colleges, which may some day cause a Civil War. 10. A Constitutional Amendment prohibiting a division of the Public-School Funds of any State for Sectarian Purposes. The Political Department is but one of the many excellent features of Thb Tribune, on which is based its claims as a superior FAMILY AND HOMB PAPER. As a newspaper it has few equals in the United States. Its Home and Foreign Correspondence, Literarv and Miscellaneous Departments, are exceedingly rich, instructive, and entertaining, and the Agriculural Department, eminently practical, contains matter always seasonable, and suited to direct application to the active operations of the Farmer. In the Department Field and Stable is given valuable information as to the dis eases and care of live stock, this contributed by a Veterinary Surgeon of skill and experience, who will answer all questions asked by correspondents.

THE WEEKLY SUN. 1776. NEW YORK. 1876. Eighteen hundred and seventy-six is the Centennial year. It is also the year -in which an Opposition House of Representatives. the first since the war, will be in power at Washington: and the year of the twenty -third election of a President of the United States. All of these events are sure to be of great interest and importance, especially the two latter; and all of them and everything connected w>th them will be fully and freshly reported and expounded in Tine Sun. The Opposition House of Representatives, taking up the line of inquiry opened years ago by Thb Sun, will sternly and diligently investigate the corruptions and misdeeds of Grant’s administration; and will, it is to be hoped, (ay the foundation for a new and better period in our national history. Of all this Thk Sun will contain complete and accurate accounts, furnishing its readers with early and trustworthy information upon these absorbing topics. The twenty-third Presidential election, with the preparations for it, will be memorable as deciding upon Grant’s aspirations for a third term of power and plunder, and still more as deciding who shall be the candidate of the party of Reform, and as electing that candidate.
