JLsxcDorE or Jon Ewdoiph. He was tra
' Telling thtongh a psrt of Virginia in which
bo was unacqutited. During the time he
stopped a eight at an inn near the forks of
the road. The inn keeker was a flue gentleman,
and no doubt one of the first families of the old
Dominion. Knowing who his distinguished
gnest was, he endeavored during the evening
to draw him into a conversation, but failed in
all his efforts- But in the morning, when
5tr- Eandolph was ready to set out, he cal
led for his bill, which, on being piesented,
was paid. The landlord, still anxious to have
some conversation with him, began as follows :
"Which way are you travlling, Mr. Ean
dolph?" "Sir 7" said Mr. Eandolph, with a look of
displeasure.
"I asked," kaid the landlord, "which way
are yon travelling T"
"Have I paid you my biU ?"
"Yes."
"Do 1 owe you anything more 7"
"No."
"Well, I'm going just where I please ; do
you understand 1"
"Yes."
The landlord by this time got somewhat ex
cited, and Mr. Eandolph drove off, but, to
"hn IriTii ?lrtrt' mirnrise. in a few minutes sent
one of his servants to inquire which of the
forks of the road to take. Mr. Eandolph not
being out of hearing distance, thj landlord
poke at the top o his voice, "Mr. Eandolph,
you dont ows me ono cent ; just take which
road you please." It is said that the air turn

A A FARM WITHIN THE REACH OF
EVERY MAN.
TnE R IDG WAY FARM COMPANY has made ar
rangements by which all who desire to settle or
purchase a home can do so. The farms consist of
the best limestone soil of the most superior quality
for farming, iu a rapidly improving place, into
which an extensive emigration is now pouring.
The property is located in Elk County, Pennsylva
nia, in the midst of a thriving population of some
10,000. The climate is perfectly healthy, and the
terrible plague of the west fever is unknown. It
also has an abundance of the best quality of Coal
and Iron. The price to buy it out is irom j to
$20 per acre, payable in instalments, to be located
at the time of purchasing, or a share of 25 acres
entitling to locate the same for $300, payabln SO
per month or 121 acres payable 4 per month.
Discount for every sum of $100 and under, paid in
advance, a discount of i per cent, will be allowed,
and for over $100 a discount ot 10 per cent.
In considering the advantages of emigrating to
this locality the following are presented :
I'irtt The soil is a rich limestone, capable of
raising the heaviest crops, owiug to which this set
tlement has attained its present great prosperity.
eronl It is the centre ot the great orth West
Coal Basin, and is destined soon to become one of
the greatest business places in the State. It will
supply the great Lake market, (according to popu
lation and travel the greatest in the Union.) It
has five workable veincs of the best Bituminous
Coal, amounting iu the aggregate to over 22 feet,
which makes 22.000 tons of coal under each acre.
This will make the land of inestimablo value.
Third The eminent state geologist Dr. Chas.
T. Jackson of Boston, has made a geological sur
vey of the land, and analysed the coal, the iron
oro and tbe limestone. This report together with
maps will bo furnished to inquirers.
Fourth Three railroads are laid out through
this property. Tbe Sunbury and Erie Railroad
gives us a market for our coal to the Lakes it runs
from Erie to Philadelphia. A large part of this
road has been finished, and is now in running or
der. A heavy force is now working from Erie to
wards our land in the western direction, the moans
for the completion of which has been raised it
will soon be finished. The Allegheny Valley Rail
road connects us with New York, Boston and Pitts
burg. The Venango Road connects us with the
West. -- -- . ,?.-.,...--.
There are already good Turnpike roads running
through the property, various other roads have
been opened to- accommodate the emigration and
settlement which has already taken place. -
- Thore is no opportunity eqnal to it now offered
to the man who wants to provide himself a home
in an easy way, and make a settlement where he
ean live in prosperity and independence in a cli
mate PERFECTLY HEALTHY. .
- No case of fover ever having been known to ooi
eur in this settlement. It is not like going to the
backwoods of the West, among perhaps intollerant
people, where there is no- society, churches, or
schools, where the price of land is high, and where
the emigrant, after being used to the healthiest
climate ia the world, has to endure sickness and
pain, and perhaps ruins his health and that of his
family. Hut here is a thriving settlement having
three towns, containing churches, schools, hotels,
stores, saw mills, grist mills, and everything de
sired. There is a eashmarket at hand. - The lum
ber trade last year amounted to over two hundred
million feet of lumber. - In a short time, owing to
the coal, it. will still become more valuable, as a
number of iron works and manufactories will soon
be started i they are at present starting them ex
tensively at Warren. . Even for those who do not
wish to go there, the payments are such that they
ean easily buy a farm to save their rising families
from want in the future, or to gain a competence
by the rise which wiU take place in the value of
lands . . By an' outlay scarcely missed, a substan
tial provision can be made

TI1U-KEW YORK TRIUUNL, 1857-8.
Tho Tribune was first issued as a Daily on
thu lutU of April, 1811. Its Weekly edition wss
commenced in September of the same y -ar ; its
Semi-Uekly in May, 115. It was the first da;y
in America to iscua a uoublo or eiht-page sheet ut
a low price, and it has kept at least even with the
foremost of its rivals iu tbe rapid expansion of
Newspaper enterprise, which tbe great extension
of Railroads, and tho establishment of the Tele
graph system have crowded into these last sixteen
evectful years- No larger journal is afforded at
so low a price in any quarter of the world ; none
iu America, no matter at wiiat price issued, pays
an equal amount, weekly or monthly, for intellec
tual labor. It employs correspondents regularly
in the leading capitals of Europe, aud at the most
important points on this continent, with a liberal
staff of writers and rcporsers at home, regarding
full, early and accurate information as the first ob
ject of a Newspaper, and the timely aci iLorongh
elucidation thereof as the chief end of Edito
rials. In that spirit, "The Tribune" h;s been and
will be conducted, extending and perfecting its
correspondence so fast as tho increase of its pa
tronage will justify the expense. Should the cur
rent attempt to connect the Old with the NewWorld
by the magnetic wire prove successful. we shall ve
ry soon, at a heavy cost to ourselves and, we trust,
a corresponding advantage to our readers publish
each morning a synopsis of the preceeding day's
occurrence throughout Europe. Northern Africa
arid Western Asia, with regular reports of the mar
kets, the monetary aspects and harvest prospects
of hither Europe. Witha good ttt las beside him
and his daily paper on his fireside table, the A
inerican farmer or artisan within a day's ride of
the city may then study each evening the doings
of the civilized world throughout the day preced
ing ; and it seems hardly possible that any who
ean read, but especially one who has children to
educate, will longcrdeny himself the pleasure and
profit of a daily journal. The same is truo mea
surably of those who live further inland : though,
whero'niails are infrequent, a Semi-Weekly, or e
ven a Weekly, may seem sufficient.
The Tribune deals with questions of Political
Economy, Public Policy, Ethics, Material Progress
and whatever may affect the Intellectual, Moral,
Social and Physical well bo.ng of mankind, dog
matic 'lheology alono excepted. Its Jeading idea
is tho honoring of honest useful Work in whatever
sphere or capacity, and the consequent elevation
of the Laboring class in knowledge, virtue and
general esteem. It is necessarily hostile to Slavo
ry under all its aspects, to Intemperance in what
ever form or degree with its accessories, to War
save in the defense of Country and Liberty against
actual invasion, and to every form of Gambling.
Desiring to see Production extended and encour
aged, while wild Speculation and useless Traffic
are curtailed, it favors the policy of sustaining and
diversifying Home Industry by a discriminating
Tariff a policy which tends to increase the price
of Grain to tho farmer while diminishing that of
Bread to the artisan, by reducing the distance a
cross which their respective products are exchang
ed and, of course, reducing the cost of their trans
for. Regarding . Fillibusterism in all its phases,
and every form, and device of National covctous
ress, with unqualified abhorrence as the bane of
Republics and in their triumph the grave of Equal
Human Rights, we seek by every means to woo
and win the attention of our countrymen from pro
jects of aggrandizement abroad to enterprises of
developcment and bencficeneo at home, foremost
among which we rank a Railroad through the
heart of our territory to connect the waters of the
Atlantic with those of the Pacific Believing that
the goods of this life are not yet fairly distributed,
and that no one ready to work should ever famish
in unwilling idleness, it lends an open ear to eve
ry suggestion of Social improvement which does
not countervail the dictates of eternal Morality
nor war upon that natural right of every one to
whatsoever be has fairly produced or honestly ac
quired, whose denial must sink mankind into the
chaos and night of barbarism and universal squal
or. With a profound consciousness that idlers,
drunkards, libertines and profligates can never be
other (in the main) than needy and wretched, it
bears aloft the great truth that Prevention is bet
ter than Punishment that the child trained up in
the way he should go, will rarely in after years
desert that way for tho thorny paths of Vice and
Crime that a true Education Religious, Moral
and Industrial as well as Intellectual is the most
effective temporal antidote to the errors and woes
of our race. Recognising in the most degraded
specimen of Humanity a divine spark which should
be reverently cherished, not ruthlessly trodden
out, wc have charity for all forms of evil but those
which seek personal advantage through the de
basement of our fellow-beings. Tho champion of
no class or caste, the devotee of no sect, we would
fain be the interpreter to each other of men's bet
ter impulses and aspirations, the harbinger of
general concord between Labor and Capital, and
among those whom circumstances or misapprehen
sions haie thrown into unnatural antagonism. A
eotcmporary once observed that ho never knew a
hard, grasping, niggardly employer who did not
hate 'The Tribune, nor a generous, large-souled,
kindly one, willing to live and let live, who did
not like it. Wo ask no higher praise, no warmer
attcstatiou ' " -
The circulation of The Tribune is at this time
as follows- Daily, 32,0U0 copies; Weekly, 176,800
copies; Semi-Weekly, 16,000 copies; California
and European, 6,0(it copies; Total, 230,800 copies.
That of the Semi-Weekly and Weekly we believe
to be exceeded by no other newspaper published
in tho world ; that of the Daily (alls behind that
of some of our cotemporarice. Had our hostility
to Human Slavery and the Liquor Traffic been
more guarded and politic, our Daily issues would
now be some thousands heavier and our Advertis
ing far more lucrative ; but of our patronage gen
erally we have no reason, no wish, to complain. '
Of late, a concerted effort has been made to di
minish our rural circulation throngh the influence
of the Postmasters, some of whom embark in it
eagerly, others under political restraint, while a
large number, we are happy, for the sake Human
Nature, to state, refuse to be dragooned into it at
all. Still, we have been made to feel the heavy
hand of Power, and have douMIess lost thousands
of subscribers inconsequence.- Pretexts to which
no individual in his private capacity would have
stooped have been relied on to justify the stoppage
of our papers within reach ef their subscribers and
rightful owners, and their retention in the Post
Otfiee till their value was destroyed. Postmasters
have been schooled by rival journals several of
them living on their self-proclaimed ability to
serve as an antidote to 1 he Tribune as to their
political duty to promote at our expense the dis
semmination of gazettes of adverse politics. We
shall outlive this warfare, but we de not affect in
difference to it. ' In the open field of disc ussior,
we fear nothing; ' but in the tens of thousands of
rural neighborhoods whore the Posmaster ean in
duce many of his quiet neighbors to take the jour
nal he recommcuds.we have already lost some pa
trons, ana expect to lose more as our subscriptions
for this year expire; Wo appeal, therefore, to the
hearty, faithful, fearless advocates of Free Labor
and Free Soil throughout the land to take care
that this official warfare oa our circulation be not
prosecuted without counteraction. - We cmnlOT no
travelling agents, for we will not consent to have
the public harrassed with the solicitations of stran
gers in our behalf.- He strike tbe name of each
subscriber to our Weekly and Semi-Weekly from
our books as soon as his term has expired, for we
will not haunt our patrons with duns for arrears
which they may say they never intended to incur,
for uaners which Tierhaos thev never read : wa re
ly for the renewal of our subscriptions solely on
ine volunteered etlorts of those who, liking our pa
per, believe its influence salutary and worthy to
oeexionaea: and thus tar our reliance baa beea
justified, as we trust it may eontinne to be.
