Independent, not Neutral. We find an article, under the above caption, hi the last number of tbe Erie Dispatch, much of which so exactly expresses our sentiments and defines our position that we shall draw upon it in making up what follows. By reference to tbe head of our paper, on first page, it will be seen that Independent, not neutral, is our niotto. Under it we have thus far published tbe Tribune, and under it we intend it shall bo published so long as we conduct it. In our independence we acknowledge no fealty to party or sect —bow not at tbe beck or nod of political tricksters or political masters—cater not to the corrupt and vitiated tastes of parties, whose bigotry will not permit them tojudge fair ly of anything that pertains to tbe good of the provided it is not found' in .their com mandments or political text book. We neither look to the right or left, bur take a clear course, steering clear of politics generally, and only make suggestions and observations thereon when we know we are right, and can do our country a service—let those suggestions strike, where they -inay, or let them offend either party—neverthe less they are honest and unbiassed sentiments, and we claim the privilege Of expressing them. We have made favorable mention of,members of all policnl parlies* who were candidates for of fice—of some because of the principles they ad vocated, which we believed would 1 elevate the standard of our-common weal; of others pn local or personal grounds, when the office was not one wherein principles were involved, but where faithful men were required. In doing so we have pursued what seemed to us to be a con sistent course, so that no party can reasonably change ns with being entirely hostile orvpartic ularly favorable to it. During tbe campaign which is now,about closing, we have, on ac account of the high state of feeling, referred but seldom'to politics r and when we did so our remark's were general, yet some whose eyes are covered with the film of political prejudice, and; whose zeal in their cause, right or wrong, will not permit them to view the case dispassionately and with discrimination, have took exceptions to our coarse and say that because we are neu tral we should not interfere with politics. Were we a. professed neutral organ such proceedure mightbeproper; but being an independent or gan*, we will’not suffer our independence to, be enrtiuled because we - may differ, ns is natural, with some of our friends. We claim thntvre have ns much right to express our preference in politics and give our opinions os any men that'breathe or claim to be freemen. • We are not slaves whose tongues are .tied, who have hearts and minds and yet dare not give utter ance to our opinions or express our sentiments. And in uttering them we ask no man to give them credence unless he has a heart and mind that beats in unison therewith—we ask no man to act upon our suggestions unless ho is satis fied that we are right, and that it is for. tbe good of the country, the maintenance of the laws and the support of the constitution. Subscribers with whom we inay differ should treat us as charitably os they do otber men, or as other men do them. iWe Save always done that which thought beqt, and if we have erred in our judgment, it is human—and no man of judg ment or highmmdedness- would be guilty of find ing fault with us for doing that which every mitn does,' express the honest convictions of his heart—defend the right—denounce the wrong. We wish it distinctly understood that these are onr sentiments on the subject of independence, and we claim that we have a right to speak without being, called to task by those who differ in opinion with us. We ask none to follow our advice unless they believe whnt we say, and thia they can- do os they please, as we do, and be as independent os we ave.

Recently a package of to the amount of $9,445 was forwarded by Adams’ Express from Baltimore to Hagerstown. Wheuthe package arrived it was i found that $B,OOO, In notes, had baas abstracted add their place (filled witli stripsof paper. 11 was suspected that the cobber? hod taken place at Harrisburg, where themoney had lain over Sunday . Immediately /airier the robbery an in vest igationwasmade, and suspicion pointed to a young mah named Simmons, a messenger in the employ of the company, unwilling to .make a direct charge, the officers laid'a trap for him.— This they were fortunately enabled to do in con sequence of all the notes taken having a pecu liar mark upon them. They gave notice at all business places of this fact, and finally one of the notes was deposited at one of thei bonks by the keeper of a lager beer saloon. . This traced the robbery direct to young Sim mons, who, when confronted by GoL Bingham, tbe President of the Company, acknowledged the crime. When asked what be bad done with the money, be said that he hod spent thirty dol lars, bad fifteen on bond, and had bnrned the rest in Wetzel’s swampi He told Col. Bingham where he bad spent the money, and also took him to where he burned tbe balance, showed him the ashes and the fragments of notes, which fully satisfied the Colonel that what he said was true. - He recovered the notes spent by Simmons, and had him committed to jail. It is alleged, and generally believed, that Simmons is partially insane, and this belief is strengthened by the fact that he was once, for a time, confined in the State Lunatic Asylum. The proof being made to the bank that the money has been destroyed, and the numbers of the notes having all been preserved by register, there will probably be a re-issue, and the com pany will lose very little in the end. LETTER FROM IRELAND. Corrtspondtnct of the Altoona Tribunt. Colebain, County Antrim, \ Septembei 12, 1860. / When I finished my last letter I was in Bel fast, now 1 write from Colerain. 1 proceed, at first, to give you a description of Belfast. Jew towns have progressed so rapidly as Belfast.— It appears almost incredible that in the course j of 30 years the population has increased tl>ree- I fold. Mr. Daviss, to whom lam under lasting obligations for information furnished, tells me that in 1821 the population Was 37,000, and in 1861 it was 100.00 CK This great city, with all its houses and inhabitants, stands upon the ter ritory of one proprietor, the Marquis of Done gal, to whom the whole town belongs and to whom .every citizen pays tribute. The town is conveniently situated on the river Lagan, just before it flows into the elongated bay known as Belfast Lough. The Irish name of Belfast is ex pressive of the situation of the town. Beal-na farsad signifying the “ month of the ford.”— The harbor is one of the finest in the Kingdom. Miiton, who, though a great man, could not be charitable, spoke very disrespectfully of them for this liberality of spirit, styling them “ block ish Presbyters” >nd “unhallowed priestlings.” In 1660, as I learn from a plan bearing that date, the town contained but six streets. Per haps the most remarkable fact in the industrial history of Belfast is, that no printing press was brought intoihe city before the year 1696, Belfast is the town wherein the first Bible ever published in Ireland, was printed, and where the oldest Irish newspaper, a copy of which I mailed you, was originally established. Nearly opposite the Post Office, in Rosemary street, stands the chapel of the first Presbyterian con gregation. In Belfast there are 20 congrega tions of Presbyterians, 4 of Roman Catholics, 12 of Episcopalians, and various others, in all 62 icburbhes and chapels. The Presbyterians, are the largest body in Belfast, form a par ticular church, planned on the model of that of, Scotland, and called the Presbyterian Church of Ireland or Ulster. This church was founded in the year 1642. The chnrch of the first congre gation Is the finest belonging to the body. By a flight of twenty steps you reach a handsome portico,'composed of ten elegant Doribcolumns, over which rises an elaborate balustrade. The internal decorations I 'are quite in keeping with the external beauty of the building. The ceil ing is completely covered with ornamental work in stucco, and the seats are polished mahogany. There are other buildings, as the Custom Hpuse, Post Office, St. Ann’s Parish Church, Belfast Academy, Barrack and Workhouses, &0., des criptions of which I must omit. The flax mills will naturally attract the atten tion of the American. They are situated in all parts of the town, and ready access can be ob tained into roost of them. That of Messrs. Muihollands, situate in the Northern extremity of the town, is one of the most extensive in the Kingdom. The interminable hum of myriads of spindles, and the subdued sound of machin ery. together with the light and airy appearance of the rooms and quiet and orderly bearing of the hands employed, appear at first sight to be a new feature in Ireland. This firm emyloy 1,000 hands, and the foreman told me that thby generally have $500,000 worth of flax in the course of manipulation. To give an idea of the increase of the linen business, I will state what the gentleman above alluded to told me. In 1808, said he, there were 212 spindles in opera tion in Ireland. In 1852, in Ulster, Munster and Leister there were 600,000 spindles in ope ration. From the. flax mills we went to Linen Hall, sometimes styled the White Linen Hall. It was built in 1715-and cost §50.000. The site was granted by the JEarl of Donegal..' It is built of brick, is quadrangular in shape and two stories in height. Well planted grounds surround thehall. :T never was, before I entered this hall, completely surrounded with pure Irish linen, but here 1 was in linen of the most cost-' ,ly kind, for some single table cloths of which they asked J6lO or sso,* Of course I did pot buy any of that kind. I visited the Music Hall, Bt George's Chnrch, Queen’s College, St. Malachy's Reman Catholic Church, Museum, Botanical Gardens and many other places of interest, which made my stay of three days, in Belfast, exceedingly pleasant. I But we now start from Belfast further North. Leaving this busy town behind ns, we soon find ourselves in the midst of the cultured meadows : of the County Antrim. The woyis, fora space of seven miles, hy the- Side of Belfast Lough, sometimes called, the bay of Carrickfergua, a fine sheet of water, about 12. miles long and 6 miles bread, measuring from Groomsport, in County Down, to Whitehead, on the Antrim 'side ; Upon-this Bay, but one ship, the “Speed-; wall,”; is known .to- have suffered. Presently we stop at Antrim, a .small town on the Six Mile j >Watcri Near Longh Neagh, In the vicinity, Is- & Tery cprrtplete round tower, standing neatly A Qckwiok foe LkgisliATOhs.—lf I j 93 feet higfl 4 with a'ciretmfereMe af nearly 68 go into a grocer's shop and steal two or three feet pom this place I walkedtoongh Antrim pleceg of lam a thief.

Some tell me that the thousand, for he robs every person to whom he word v NcmjV’ is from, orfor “Neach,” which sells goods with those false weights. By what means: oh account of its sizei or its strange anomaly of the law is the greater thief gems hrblcli j’tradition says, were gathered on allowed to get off so much more cheaply than \ its shoirep. I jbthers say it Isfiom “ Neas,” mean- the lesser, ing a owing to the supposed healing properties jof the water. Next to the healing ore the petfefying properties of the water, about which snob; extravagent tales havo been told.— Although many of these stories have been man ufactured, ihe water does possess the power of petrofying.'; I was told’thai a petrefaction was I found some years ago, in this lake, that weighed I' 700 pounds. It was entirely a stone without any wood in it.! Some of the most beautiful speci mens of petrefaction can be obtained from the peasantry for a mere trifle. In, this lake is j found the pollan or bright silver fish, which, in 1 the season,; is as common ns herring in the cot tages of the poor dev. Mr. Pattison showed me a book, I containing a description of this lake, said to have been written A. IX 05:—“ There is a Lake in Ijlsteraud mochofysshetherin, whiche is XXX my lea in lengthe and XV in brede. The River Ban : runneth out of the Lake into the North Ocean, and men say that this Lake began in this manner,” &c. The style and orthogra phy is v?ry ancient. Here I saw the first red hand. The parent legend is, that af some very , remote period, a party from some unknown land sailed to Ireland for .the purpose of conquering it. Nearing the IJlstcr coast, it was agree 1 that whoever should touch the land first should be Lord of it: ' One daring chief, seeing a proba bility'of his losing the prize, deliberately cut off his left-hand and threw it ashore before the other boat’s crew could land, and thus having touched the soil first he claimed it, and from him sprung the O’Neills, the royal race of Ulster. Leaving Lough Neagh and Antrim, we con tinue our railway ride to Ballymena. Not long after quitting Antrim the deer park of Shane’s Castle is passed. 1 was told by a friend that there was a. tomb stone near Shane’s Castle, bearing thip inscription ;—“ This vault was erec ted in 166(5 by Shean Mac Phelin Mac Bryan Mac Sheau O’Neill, Esq , ns a burying place for himself an.d: the family of Claudeboy.” Won der what person' in Altoona would think of cul ling a son by a name os long as the above We pass through Ballymena and Ballymony and stop at Coleraine. The latter place bus long becu noted for the excellence and fineness of its linens, called •* Coleraines,” and for its salmon fisheries on the Bann, and 1 think a very proper addition might bo added, viz; for the abundance-of fleas. I was there several days and was never so pestered before. My next visit will be to the Giant's Causeway. You can go by Portrush or Bushmills. I prefer paying a shilling and going through Priestland to Bushmills. Ob! what a lovely country.— Here I passed through the home of my wife’s grand-parents, and plucked flowers by the road side. We passed Ball} labor and reached Bush mills in tithe fur dinner. Bushnills is an old town, deriving its name from the river Cushion which it is placed, and an old water mill now in ruins. It is a favorite refcort for anglers on ac count of the abuudancc on salmon in the Bush. Any American desiring to\ practice the gentle art will get much valuable information from my good friends, Archibald McKinney and Arthur McGlaughlin,, than whom mere hospitable and respectable gentlemen do not reside in the Uni ted Kingdom. I will long remfcqnber-the kind ness shown me by the people of.Bushmills. In numerable were the questions asked me about America, but I answered them all. Many were the sobs and tears from those who would go, if they could, to enjoy the rich boon belonging only do Americans. The houses are divided into three apartments, generally, sometimes more, viz: the dwelling, the cow house, the bairn and the pig house, all under ohe roof, with no floor save the earth, for wooden floors are very scarqp. Rich people have stone flog floors, or tyle. Houses are all stone and the roofs are either covered with slate, or thatched with straw. In my next I will give you a description of the Giant’s Causeway, Duuleith Castle and car rick-a-Reed. Yours, Respectfully; TV. R. BOYERS The Distress in Kansas. —Mr. Tbaddius Hyntt, who has just returned from a tour of benevolent investigation at the. seat of famine in Kansas, in bis memorial to the President praying tlie withdrawal of the homestead of the settlers from the public sales ordered this.fall, draws the.folio wing bprrible.picture of the con dition of the people: Thousands of once thrifty and prosperous American citizens are now perishing for want. Winter is upon them ; clothing they are nearly bereft; food they have not to last them through the cold season that is approaching. Of over a hundcred thonsmd people upon Kansas soil six months ago, at least Oije-fourth orone-third are left; of the remainder it is safe to say that \ forty thousand at this moment see nothing but tfxodus or starvation at the end of the (JO days i now just before them; from ten to twenty ; thousand Ipok with only despairing eyes upon i November; thousands cannot subsist a month longer unaided ; other thousands are living upon the little which their neighbors deprive themselves of to give them—neighbors equally unfortubat?, and with whom starvation is merely a question of but a fgw days longer ; while still other thousands, if not at once re lieved must perish from hunger or the diseases that follow in its tram. Massacre op Emigrants. —Thq last arrival from Oregon, brings dates from Vancouver, a town on tljo Columbia river; to the 3d instant. H. Scheiber had just arrived at that place with news of the .massacre by the Snake Indians of an entire emigrant train, consisting of forty-six persons; nineteen of whom were men and the balance women and children. The party was first attacked about fifty miles west of Salmon Falls on tlie 9th of September. This attack lasted about one hour The Indians then with drew end allowed the train to proceed five miles, when theyl again attacked the train. This fight lusted two days and one night.— On (the afternoon of the 10th the Indians had {(ossesipn pftlie whole tram with the. exception of six men, who being mounted escaped. After travelling 'through the woods fur nine days tlie six. survivprs Were again attacked, and five of the parity filled. Mr. Scheiber alone escaped by hiding |n the bashes. ' After travelling seven days withopt food, be was found in an exhaust ed; condition by some persons who took him to the Dalles.';Of the nineteen males in tlie party, six Were (discharged soldiers (from Fort Hall. Mr. Scheiber is the, only survivor. He says that the six men who fled on horseback did not leave until;the Indians had complete possession of the train; and from the screams of the wotnen and ; children he was led to believe that the Whole;purtjrjiwas butchered.
