Cheapest Taper is the-County! With the present Dumber, the Tribune has on ttted upon its third relume. Commenced at a time When the confidence of the citizens of Al toona in newspapers and newspaper publishers was considerably shaken, if not totally annihila ted, it has slowly but surely restored that con fidence, and now stands upon a sure foundation, and is universally acknowledged to be cue of the fixed institutions of oar town. But this re sult has not been achieved without a hard stran gle, and considerable expenditure of time and means on the part of its editors. The steady increase of patronage, however, has-afforded in dubitable evidence that their labors harb been up dated. - In catering upon the new volume it is almost unnecessary to say that the Tribune will .contin ue to be x> INDEPENDENT IN EVERYTHING, " be " jay-biassed neither by fear, favor nor affection, in fivor pf partioa or secls. In this respect it Is only necessary to say that the past affords a lair index as to but futard course. It has .always been our atm to make the Tri hunt, a reliable first-class Local Paper, as we believe that in that character alone, country pa pers can successfully compete with their flashy city neighbors. To this end we have secured correspondents' in various parts of the county, who furnish with all the items of local inter est in their vicinity. Wo purpose adding others to our list {is suol} as we can obtain them. Du - ring the next year we shall redouble our efforts to make the Tribune a perfect compendium of Hour News—a reliable, nner-ciAsa Local Paper, second to none in the country,'and as such a welcome weekly visitor to pur patrons, whether at home or abroad. But while the Local .Department shall be our special care, we shall also devote a conaidtra ' blc space to Literary Mattrit, FCn and Hu mor, mud the chronicling of events of general interest to our readers. We purpose also pub lishing from time to time “ Original Sketches of /Men and Things ’’ which will be furnished by our contributors. We have made arrangements alto to have a Weekly letter from Philadelphia, and judging frem the reputation pur correspon dent sustains as a popular writer, these letters wUI be a rich treat to our readers. As we are decidedly journalists of the pro gressive school, we .have concluded to adopt the <uu|b( syatejm in oar- business; The neglect of qu\tA a number of our-patrons to pay up prompt ly, ora the rascality - of others, has compelled ns to adopt this course. Time and experience bps fully proved to our satisfaction that the credit system will not w«rk with newspaper pnfryafrera. From this date no paper will he •pjit from this oJEcc, unless paid for iti advance, and at the. expiration of the time paid for, if noifenewedl will be promptly stopped. This arrangement doe* no ipjpstice. so xmr patrons,- jsfcilett' will protect 08 from the impositions of goalless scoundrels, and enable us to derote more attention to our paper. • ■ Recognising, the principle that contracts to be satisfactory' should' be fraught with mutual benefit to both parties, and a* money in huge amounts, fit advea tet, is of more .value to ns than ith«£ 'rooaived in driblets, as an' induce- meat to numbers who would otherwise discon tinue. as' well as to those who have never yet tshe» paper, jre Offer it at the following Iterates forthecoming jear; 1 .copy, one year lo cates ($1.26 per co) , PCX' wjpy) i f> on -‘‘ p°°iw«opy) 20 oo *"*&&** 20 *t «e «n, rate-#! j*r copy! * *“ **“• w»om^wiy:tt^ Till be «e«a tb&t our paper la emphatically the cheapest. ia the county.— A« to we leave in tp the publie to de cide. life earnestly request our friends ihcough outthe epnnty to' “give. as a lift," as webare ne douhteach of them cjm in their neighborhood. -.k-.,.-i Ca»vas?*r« Wasiap.—Several e nergetiobo wanted to CJUxypfi mSSS*$* tifmM mfai&H, ' or ta* $1 50 12 60 .-i; [- \ Sklfrt JJBscdlang. ■ " : Prom Bit PitUburgh ChritUan Advocatt.

We think no onp will behurprised at our whctt we inform them a fair representa tion of thf actual size, as well as of the general appearance of a cluster of berries, ho larger than many we have seen, han dled and tasted. It is a new and perfectly distinct variety, and not the |Coramon kind improved by cultivation. - It originated near New Ro ehqlle, New York, and was first brought into notice by Hjfr. Seacor,. who is much better entitled to the nameiof it thbn the gentleman who for pecuniary advantages wishes it to be called the Lawton. The shape of the fruit, it will be seen, is not that of the wild blackberry, but resem bles the Hovey’s Seedling strawberry. We are inclined to the opinion that it is an ac cidental cross of the common blackberry and the dewberry. We have been led to this conclusion from the following consid erations. The first year the plants trail i,on the ground, very much like the dew berry, but afterwards they grow uprightly Very stoutly, from ten to fifteen high. The shape of the fruit is not mulberry like, sis the common blackberry is, but Resembles the dewberry, though it is much larger, and when perfectly ripe the flavor is quite equal. CHARACTERISTICS OF THE PLANT AND The plants are very hardy and vigorous, —more so than the common varieties, — and stand the cold well. The fruit is j nicy and fine flavored, with very few seeds.— The size can hardly he appreciated by those who have seen only the common kinds.— Of about the average size, sixty to eighty berries will fill a quart measure; while of those a little above the. medium from forty to fifty will, dp the same. An inch to an inch and a half may be set down as the av erage diameter, though larger berries are quite common. They commence ripening about the mid dle of «Tuly, and continue from five to'eight weeks. This is most opportune. .Ripen ing ak they do just at the season when there are no other fruits—when the strawberry and raspberry crops have been exhausted, and peaches and grapes have not yet ap peared—hlackbenies could not well be dispensed with, especially when w.e take into consideration their medicinal and ben eficial effects upon the system during the hot season. PRODUCTIVENESS yield is enormous. One of, the ed itors of the New York Tribune lays:— “We received a few days since an invita tion from Mr. George Seymour tbyisithis nursery and view several acresinbearino-. Wo arrived on the ground about 10 A. M°, in company with a number of ladies and gentlemen, who immediately began to in sinuate themselves, among the bushes, which were standing very thickly, and all well laden with fruit. Astonishment seized the party, and while viewing the gorgeous duplay we for a time forgot to taste the tempting berries. The bushes had occu pied this field for two years, and were well supplied with side shoots,- all loaded with berries in every stage, from the smallest to the largest ripe blackberry, and they were blackberries! Those berries produced on the mountain, or by the old stone wall on -the homestead farm, which produced so fine a flavor in pur youthful -days, lostallthe delieiousness ascribed to them hjr i lingering memory when wc had tasted a fpw of the fully ripe New Rochel les. Shall we say how many huphels offing ! fruit ate tekenjfrom ah acre ? We Hare hot Wo had’ with us several horticultu rists whp arc engaged in ! supplying New York with fine fruits.; They counted the hemes fin several hushes, measured them in baskets, and they were so astonished at the amount whioh .it might be possible to grow on an acre, that they dared not to re peat it to the uninitiated m the wonders of fruit growing. We had learned from oirchlars that fioni four to eight quarts were produced by single oanes, and that 500 to. WOO ripe hemes were id be coun ted on a cane of average size ; we found one cane hawng'over 1000 1 Sent to the city in quart bdaes, they bring 30 cents at wholesalp i Raspberry baskets filled With these berries trill sell for 15 cents, and the retailers get whatever they choose to oak , ?

The editor of the Agricitlturist says : “ The best growth and fruiting wo have seen is upon a rocky side hill, though perhaps not better than others on <lark muck and peaty soil.” host it height be thought that we over rate this Tataous fruit, we will add the opinions of a few gentlemen who are every way competent to form a correct judgment of its merits. : Mr. Charles Downing, in the turiat, thu* speaks of it: •* “ Having heard a good deal said about the New -Rochelle Blackberry, for the past year ojj two, and knowing that many of the new fruits were over praised, I made a special visit, a few days since, to see for myself, and I can assure you I was well paid for nry; trouble. There is no humbug about it, and the only wonder is that it has not been more generally introduced and propagated before. The fruit is large and sweet, f: It is an enorngtpus bearer j in deed the quantity (considering the large size of the fruit,) surprised me, and the berries were perfect.” “ As to its size, it will surprise most per sons who see it for the first time. At Nor walk we saw several stalks bearing from five to eight quarts, each. We tried some that had been gathered over forty hours, and found (he flavor quite good. A quart of them numbered seventy-one berries.— We picked in quart from vines which had received nomanure for two years past, and from which; the largest had just been se lected for the New Haven Horticultural Society, and found that seven ty-t wo of them filled a quart measure. ‘‘ The vines grow quite large—many of them over ain inch in diameter, and the fruit hangs ip clusters, in size more like very large Crreen Gage Plums, than like the ordinary Blackberry. The flavor is not apparently diminished by its large size, and the fewpeeds is not its least recommen dation. We think this berry a valuable acquisition to our domestic fruits, and wor thy of a place in every garden.-^— American Ayriculturist. ‘‘ We alluded the other day to the cul tivated berrips, called the New Rochelle, raised by Mi*. George Seymour, at South Norwalk. They arc not the wild Black berry, but a peculiar variety by themselves. They grow to four times the size of the common beiry, have a delicious flavor, yield abundantly, are hardy, easily raised and remain in bearing some six weeks.— This fruit will be a great accession to our list of common berries, and deserves the attention' ofpur citizens, who are conspic uous tor the variety and excellence of their horticultural productions. - ’ —Xcw Haven Journal ', IS5<3. Much moire might he said in truth in favor pf thisfruit, but we trust enough has been said to-iuduce all'your readers, who have an opportunity, to try it for them selves. \ : A. Z.

The shells were whirling through the air, their track marked by the fizzing of their fuses, twink linglike stars during their revulsions, till at last, arriving at their destination, there was a flash afid an explosion which told how, accurately and fearfully these engines of destruction do their work. Some of these shells; reached even to Gough’s Fort, and fragments wOro found there the following day. The rackets, too, seemed to be / his sing about every direction, and the elip tical shell from the French ships caused no little astonishment as "they hurried through the air with a noise not unlike that of an immense humming top..

A little girl nine.years of age was offered as a witness against a prisoner, who was on trial for felony committed in her father’s house. - Now, Emily/ said the counsel for the prisoner, upon her being offered as a wit ness, ‘ I desire to understand if you know the nature of an oath ?’ ‘I don’t know what you mean/ was the simple answer. ( There, your honor/ said the counsel, addressing the court, ‘ is anything farther necessary to demonstrate the validity of my objections ? should be rejected. She does hot comprehend the nature of an oath.’ ‘ Let us see/ said the judge; ‘ come here my daughter.’ Assured by the kind tone apd manner of the judge, the child stepped towards him, and looked confidentially up into his face with a calm clear eye, and in a man ner so artless and frank that it went straight to the heart. ‘Did you ever take an oath V inquired the judge. The little girl stepped back with a look of horror, and the red blood mantled in a blush all over her face and neck, as she answered, ‘no sir-’ She thought he in tended to inquire if she had ever blos phemd. ‘ I do not mean that,’ said the judge, who saw her mistake. ‘I mean were you ever a witness before V ‘No sir; I never was in Court before.’ He handed her the Bible open. ‘Do you know that book my daughter?’ She looked at it and answered, ‘ Yes, sir; it is the Bible.’ ! ‘ Do you ever read it V he asked. ‘ Yes sir ; every evening.’ ‘ Can you tell me what the Bible is?’ inquired the judge. ‘lt is the word of the great God/ she answered. i ‘ Well, place your hand upon this Bi ble, and listen to what I say ; and he re peated slowly and solemnly the oath usu ally administered to witnesses. ‘ Now'/ said the judge, ‘you have bceu sworn as a witness, will you tell me what will befall you if you do not toll the truth ?’ ,‘I shall he shut up in the State prison/ answered the child. ‘ How do you know ?’ asked the judge again. The child took the Dible, and turning rapidly to the chapter containing the com mandments, pointed to the injunction, ‘ Thou shult nut Lear false witness against thy neighbor.’ ‘ I learned that,’ she said, ■ before I could road.’ ‘Has any one talked with }-ou about your being a witness in c an t here against this man T inquired the judge. ‘Yes sir, she replied., ‘ 'lt mother heard they wanted me to be a witness, and last night she called me to her room and asked me to tell her the ten command ments, and then wc knelt down together, and she prayed that. 1 might understand how wicked it was to bear false witness against my neighbor, and that God would help me, a little child, to toil the truth as it was before him. And when I came up here with father, she kissed mo, and told me to remember the ninth commandment, and that God would hear every word I said. ‘Do you believe this V asked the judge, while a tear glistened in his eye, aud his Bps quivered with emotion. ‘Yes sir,’ said the child, with a voice and manner that showed her conviction of the truth was perfect. ‘ God bless you my. child,' said the j ndge, you have a good mother. ‘ This witnessis Competent,’ he continued. . * Wore I on trial for my life, aud innocent of the charge against me, I would .pray God for such a witness as this. Let her be examined.’ She told her story with the simplicity of a child, as she was, but there was a di rectness about it which carried convic tion of its truth to every heart. She was rigidly cross-examined. .The counsel plied her with infinite and ingenious ques tioning, but she varied from her first state ment in nothing. The truth ,as spoken by that child was sublime. Falsehood and perjury had preceded her testimony.— The prisoner bed entrenched himself in lies, until he deemed himself impregna ble. Witnesses had falsified facts in his favor, and villany had manufactured for him a sham defence, but before her testi mony, falsehood was scattered like chaff. The little child, for i whom a mother had prayed for strength to be given her to speak the truth as it was before God, broke • the cunning devices of matured villany to pieces like a potter’s vessel. The st rengtn that the mother had prayed for was given her, the sublime and terrible simplicity (terrible I meap to fhe prisoner and his peonured associates,) with which ijie sppltej was like a revelation from Qpd him self.

Squire H.j lived in jthe town of A., was a man in easy circumstances, with every thing enough, in doors and. out. In 'his, yard was a huge pile of wood, sawed and split, and sufficient in bulk!|o keep a do zen families through th& winter, with enough more where that eaihe from/ Across the street from Squire H., lived Mrs. W., a poor widow wouian in straight ened circumstances, with four mouths to feed and four little bodies to warn* besides her own. Squire H., doted on his hrig wood pile, and was in the habit of-iftltpg peep it through the closed blinds of his windowr before retiring at night. One night he saw a female hanging aromid the pile, and opening the door partially, tp get a better view, saw her stoop, pick ajp a large arm ful and start off. She had, hot proceeded far, however, when sheistQpped short, and he overheard the followingi: “I cannot steal—the eye of God is upon mb/’ and down went the wood and she walked off a few steps and stopped again. *' I have not a stick of wood in the house j the weather i l s bitter cold, and my. poor;; children are freezing. The Squire has enough, aud will never miss it.” So sayingCshe filled her arms again with the coveteq^foel. Again she started and again hesitated— “ What, steal ? I never before*, did such a thing, and God forbid I 'should do it now !” and down went the tyood upon the pile again. But the thought of her suf fering brood brought her oiice more to the pile, and she filled her arms ;the thiyd time with wood. Once more she. started and again turned back'—“ I will not steal — I will trust in God, and if if iis His will, we’ll perish together.” So- saying, she threw the wood upon the pile and the Squire savy her enter her dwelling and close the door. He retired/to bed, but slumber was slow in visiting; his eyelids. He thought of the poor widow and her suffering children, and perhaps when he slept he dreamed of them. s Early the next forenoon/ widbw TY-, was surprised to see the Squire’s four ox team, loaded with wood, hauled up in front of her dwelling and the Squire commenced pitching it off. ~.C “ What’s this, Squire H. ?*’ said the as* tonished and half-mghtened/woman; “ I didn’t order that wood and God knows I can’t pay for it.” • • “ It’s yours, and all paid for Ma’am !” sung out the Squire, tugging away at a big log. “ You cheated the devil last night.” The poor woman insisted that there must be a mistake about it. “ 1 tell you it’s yours, foricheating the devil last night,” said the Squire, “ and there comes a man to saw it: up, split it and pack it away iu your wood-house.” The widow began to “ smell a rat,” and stammering her thanks to tlib Squire, re treated into the house. She; granted for no more wood that winter.
