llbs. Srou-r.'s New Serial. —The irea
[„ public will be glad 10 learn that ihej
■n, entitled ‘‘The Minister’s Wooing,”
mmenced in the Ailnmic Monthly for De
jier, is the beginning of a serial novel
Sltie pen of Mrs. Harriet Beecher Stowe ;
jihal portions of it will appear from month
itooih unfit it is completed. The story is
riled by “H *he characteristics of style and
,ni which have made the author’s former
Cl ls so famous. The scene is laid in IVew
sjland immediately after the Revolution,—
■ period when all that was most simple,
mnt and peculiar in character and manner,
iim full force. It was the era before rail
ads, steamships, lightning presses, fashion-
Je churches, and fashionable clergyman,—
■non, the good old times of which the
■sent generation have so ofien heard. We
st forward lo see a masterly portrait of
jr.ian life sketched in this romance. How.
nr, it is not necessary to do more than to
nounce the fact; an author whose name
:i worts are known in more than thirty
s»u3ges, and whose two novels have rea
irfasale of more than eight hundred thous
ad volumes in this country alone, will not
arely want for readers. We shall look for
ie coming numbers of “The Minister,3 Woo
ijj” with great interest.
Sudden Appearance of a Spring. —On
iunday morning last, Mr, George Golden,
iho resides on the Hollow Road, within the
i'v limits, was awakened at an early hour
y the. sound of rushing water. In getting
p he was astonished lo find that a spring of
•alet had burst forth in the middle of his
ard, and was rapidly overflowing the adjoin
tg premises. As soon as assistance could
s procured a channel was dug for ihc recep
ion of the water, which soon carried it otf lo
he neighboring creek; but not until the
ards of Mr. Golden and Mr. Carter had
ecu flooded. The spring which made ils
ppearance so suddenly is flowing on in an
ndimioished volume. They aperture in the
round is as large as a man’s limb and the
'tier is cool, clear, and limpid. It has al
eiJy formed quite a romantic rivulet. The
ml through which it burst is that known as
fard pan" and in the vicinity there are sev.
nl springs,of similar nature. The circum

The IVew York Tribune.
1858-59.
-—Toe Nevj York Tribune, now more than seventeen yoars
old, which was the first journal in the world that appeared
regularly on au imperial eight-page sheet at so low a price as
two cents, and which has attained theunpafalleled aggregate
o f more than 200,000 subscribers, respectfully solicits its
share of the patronage which the Metropolitan Press is hence
forth to receive. It asks especially the patronage and active
favor of Republicans —of those who hate all forms of oppres
sion, and desire that every rational being shall bo free to em
ploy his faculties in such innocent manner as he shall deem
best—of those who would extend Liberty anil limit Siavety ;
but it further appeals likewise to all who look and labor for
the return of National thrift, plenty, prosperity, through the
Protection of American Industry by wisely discriminating
duties on Imports—all who favor Natiotiol through
internal development and melioration rather than by exter
nal agression and extension—all whb would rather have the
National resources devoted to the construction of a railroad
to the Pacific than to the purchase or conquest of Mexico,
Nicaragua or Cuba—all who would retrench radically our
present inordinate Fed< ral expenditures by abolishing or im
mensely reducing the Army and Navy, and expending the
money thus saved on works of beceftcence which will endure
to bless our children—all who profoundly realize that ‘‘Right
eousness exalteth a nation,” and that no real advantage can
ever accrue to any person or community from acquisitions or
successes achieved by means which contravene the laws of
Federal Right. The free allotment of limited portions of the
Public Lands to Actual Settlers thereon, and every hopeful
plan intended lo diminish the snm of human misery from
dearth of employment or inadequate recompense—every
scheme especially that seems to help the unfortunate by en
abling and teaching them to help themselves—must command
onr earnest sympathy and cooperation.
Within the present year The Tribune has provided itself
with a new and faster press, at 4 cost of $30,000, merely that
some of our subscribers may receive their papers a mail ear
lier thaa they otherwise might do. With correspondents at
the most important points throughout the civilized world,
and a staff of writers chosen from among the best In the
country, we believe that even those who dislike the politics
of our sheet concede W-’jt frankness iu avowing its convi<>
tions and ability in maintaining them. We appeal then, to
those who believe that an increased circulation of THe Trib
ute would conduce to the political, intellectual and moral
well-being of the Republic, to aid us in effecting such in
crease. As we employ no traveling solicitors of subscrip
tions, we ask onr present patrons la every locality to speak
to their neighbors and friends lu our behalf; wo shall gladly
receive from any friend lists of those who would receive and
read a specimen copy of one of our editions, and shall be
particularly grateful to those who may send us such names
from post-offices at which wo have now no subscribers.—
Whatever additions may thus be made to our circulation
shall be_ paralleled by increased efforts aud expenditures to
make on reissues more valuable and useful than they have
hitherto been. *

Dr. Wistar’s Balsam of Wild Cherry.
k? a^°ve preparation is known, It Is so well es
as an Infallible Remedy for the cure of—
5 0R2 Thjioat, Hoarseness, Bboschhis, Spit
two op Blood, Paiw in the breast,, Cbocp, Whooping Cocod,
ana every form of Pulmonary Complaint, that It were a work
of supererogation to speak of its merits.
Discovered by a celebrated physician more than twenty
years since, it has by the wonderful cures it has effected been
constantly appreciating in pnbllc favor, until its use and its
use and its reputation are alike universal; and It is now well
Known .*nd cherished by all (and their “name is legion”) who
nave been restored to health by its use as the Great Remedy
for all the diseases which It professes to cure.
Sir James Clarke, physician to Queen Victoria, >im rive*
it as bis opinfon that
CONSUMPTION CAN BE CURED.
The whole history of this medicine fully confirms the opin
ion of that eminent man. Thousands can testify, and have
testified, that when all other remedies had failed, this had
completely cured; that when the sufferer had well nigh des
paired, this had afforded Immedlase relief; that when the
physician had pronounced the disease incurable, this has re
moved it entirely.
The virtues of this Balsam are alike applicable to cure a
slight cold or a Conpibxed Consumption, and Its power as a
safe, certain, speedy, pleasant and effectual remedy cannot be
equalled.
. Caution! Purchase none unless It has the written
signature of “I. Butts” on the wrapper, as well as the point
ed name of the proprietors.
Head the following Letter
