The New Hampshire Telegraph is of
opinion that an editor who cannot stop one
of the finest trains of thought, that he is
putiing on paper, to minute the dimensions
of a large pumpkin, write an advertisement
for a hog lost, enter the name of a new sub*
scriber, or receive pay for an old one, or to
take a cowhiding for something he has said,
and after all resume the threid of bis dis
course and carry out the idea in its original
force and beauty, is next to no editor at all.

FOE THE THIRD YEAR t
Aid For Kansas.
THE TIOGA COUNTY AGITATOR,
THE TRIBUNE. FOR 1857.
The Election if put, and iU reialt prove* that
the work devolved on the Republican party u hot
yet completed. .In all tIM Euterh ind northern
portions of the country—in New-England, New-i
York, Ohio, and the North-West—the Republican
banner , floats in triumph ; while in Southern Jersey,
Pennsylvania, Indiana andTllinoisT-in»hort,wbeie
ever few newspapers' are taken, and where common
schools ore too new and too- table to have educated
the present generation of voters—the black flag of
Slavery obstructs the sunshine. A srlsngcr to Amer
ica might distinguish those portions ofoor country
moat blessed with Education, Intelligence, Thrift
and Virtue, by scanning the returns oflhe Presiden
tial contest of 1856. We have failed of presentsuc
cess, not because the People are against ns, but be
cause that large portion who did not bear or read the
argument and do not know what were the real ques
tions at issue, went almost solid again! us, reversing
the verdict which the great majority, of the educated
and intelligent endeavored to pronounce. - -
These facts indicate the path of pressing
With no unmanly replnings over what is irrevoca
ble—with no abatement of heart or hope because the
triumph of Liberty in her new ordeal is not won at
the Long Island and White Plains oi her struggle—,
with no shadow of regret that the responsibility of
governing is not confided to her champions before
Uie People were fully ready to sustain them—we be
gin aftesh the work of diffusing that vital truth
which, in regard to the concerns of this world as
well os of the next, makes Free indeed. Now, inthe
Stave Power’s heyday of victory, when its ministers
and servitors are gathering and plotting to make the
mostofllieir triumph and “crush out” the spirit
which they vainly believe to be crucified and entomb
ed—now, when the faint-hearted or cold-hearted who
lately basked in the sunshine ofoor premature hope
are hauling off to repair damages and talking os
abandoning the ragged arena of Politics for morf
quiet and flowery fields—now, in this hour of wearie
ness and shadow, Toe Tribo.se renews its vows of
eternal hostility to every form of tyranny over the
bodies or souls of men—to the shameful assumption
that tile benighted and feeble, wheather in soul or
body, are to Be regarded and treated as the con
venience or tho prey oftheir wiser or stronger breth
ren—to the domination of despots and oligarchs,
whether of empires or plantations—to the enslavers
of cities and kingdoms in Europe or the breeders for
the auction-block and the cotton field in Virginia or
Alabama.
The doctrine that no human being naa ever crea
ted for the benefit or advantage ofanolher—that ail
service between man and man should be free and
reciprocal—that the laborer should not toil and sweat
to pamper others’ pride or minister to others’ luxary,
but tor the sustenance and comfort of those near and
dear to him—is destined to certain triumph. It
mutt prevail, for God reigns, and Earth was not crea
ted to be a theater ofinjuslice, oppression and misery
for ever. It must triumph; for all irao prophecy
affirms and the vindication of the Divine benignity
imperatively requires it. It must triumph; for
Democratic America cannot always 'remain the
scoff of and the shame of reformers and
liberals tbroughoaUhnDld World. It must triumph;
for Man's history is noth-chaos or a riddle, bot
every, where instinct with meanlhg}-ajid no heroic
effort ever failed of its effect—no drop ofmartyr
blood was ever shed in vain.
But even if we Republicans were disposed to fold
our arms in slumber, our adversaries would not per
mit it They are busy to-day in lengthening their
cords and strengthening their stakes with a vigilance
and activity which reveals a consciousness on their
part that their dominion must be mode sure forth
wilh or their scepter will have forever departed.—
To-day, myrmidoms of the Slave Power threaten
and harass Northern Mexico, are encamped in tty
heart of Central America and waging a war of ex
termination on the distracted inhabitants of its petty
Republics, while it by turns leers and scowls at
Cuba, while its most ruthless bands are precipitated
on devoted Kansas, under the protection and smiles
of tbs Federal Adminisration. Even as we write,
the telegraph informs us that twenty Free-State
men, guilty of attempting to defend their homes
against the rapineand violence ofßuford’sapd Titus’s
blood-thirsty bandits, have been convicted by Le
compte’s Court of manslaughter t and sentenced to
fire years’ imprisonment at hard labor as felon*.—
This.is but a fair specimen of what has long passed
for “ justice” in Kansas—a justice which takes the
criminals into pay and aids them in bunting down,
plundering and “ wiping out” the innocent, whom
it consigns w n. Mjmmtf tbev eve ever goaded
into the madness of resisting their oppnStonP~ouaa
crimes and wrongs as unhappy Kansas has for
twelve mouths endured, even Hungary or Poland
has ever known ,* and the Power at whose fnstiga
lion these villainies were and are perpetrated sits
enthroned in the White House, and has jnat achiev
ed another four years’ ascendancy in the Federal
Government. Who, in view of these facts, can say
that Republicans may now pile their arms, even for
an hoar? i
The Tribune will be, as it has been, a Political
journal—avowedly, though not exclsivejy so. It re
cognizes the truth that Freedom and Slavery are
here grappled in deadly conflict, and that in the re
sult one of them must lose all control over the Fed
eral Government. But, while it gives prominence
and emphasis to the discussion and elucidation of
the great issue of the day, it sinks none of the char
aerteistio of a Business and Family Newspaper.—
The proceedings ofCongtess, like those in Kansas,
will be watched and reported by an able and fearless
corps ofCorrespondents, while from London, Paris,
Constantinople, Havana, &n Francisco, Albany and
other centers of interest, onr special advices will be,
as they have been, fresh and reliable. A member
of oar Editorial corps—Bayard Taylor—is nowin
Northern Europe, and will spend the Winter in
Sweden, Lapland; Russia, thence making his way
next season across Siberia and Tartary to the mouth
oftheAmonr, and thence homeward by the Pacific
and California, unless some change of route shall
promise greater interest and profit to oar readers,
for whom alone he will write regularly throughout
his adventurous journey, which is likely to require
two years for its completion. Onr reports of the
most interesting Lectures, Public Meetings; &c,
will be full and reliable, and oar- Foreign and Do
meslie News made up with a careful regard to the
condensation into our ample colums of the greatest
amount of intelligence that is consistent with the
use of type of generous size. In short, if we fail to
make TftE Tribune worth Sts cost, it shall not be for
want of expenditure or effort.
If it be deemed desirable by • Republicans that
The Tribune should be circulated in their several
localities, we urge them to see that Club's bo made
up and forwarded in due season. The Postmasters
are semfcbfficiaUy adraonishedJiot to aid onr circula
tion, but to urge instead of journals deemed
.“sound," and “National" by the'compatriots of
Atchison and Slringfetlow. We ask live Rcpdbti

A TALE OF THE GREAT DISMAL SWAMP.
BV HARRIET BEECHER STOWE,
3 vcls, 12mo. $1,75.
Certain politicians, interested in the support of.
the “peculiar institution," have endeavored to per
suade the public that Mrs. Stowe's last work is art
istically a failure, and that it has produced no pro.
found impression on either side of tho Atlantic,
But the publishers aro happy to stale, that of the
many hundreds of American notice; which they
have received, the vast majority have been decidedly*
favorable, most of them enthusiastic; and the sale
thus far has exceeded that of any work of fiction
ever published—the
SIXTY -EIGHTH THOUSAND
set of two volumcs each, being now in press.
In England, the success lias been even more won
derfiti. Tne press there, with but one or two ex.
ceptions, acknowledge tho genius and power, of the
author, and in terms of which any living writer
might be proud; and during the twelve days sue.
ceeding its publication no fewer than
SIXTY THOUSAND COPIES
were sold. The universal voice of Literary men
now places Mrs, Stowe among the foremost authors
of the age; and neither partisanship, nor an austere
religions bigotry, can ever deprive her of the laurels
she has so nobly earned.
