drops out ol it."' M

THOSE YITO WANT FARMS.
A FARM WITH IN THE REACH OF
EVEKY MAN.
THE K IPG WAY FARM COMPANY has made ar
rangements by which all who desire to settle or
purchase a homo can do so. Tho farms consist of
tho best limestone soil of the most superior quality
for (arming, in 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, an 1 the
terrible plague of the west fever is unknown. It
also has an abundance of the bost quality of Coal
and Iron. The price to buy it out is from 5-" to
20 per acre, payable in instalments, to be located
at tho time of purchasing, or a share of 25 acres
entitling to locate the same for -'i00, pnyabln 5-o
per month or 12i acres payable SI per month.
Discount for every sum of 5100 aod under, paid in
idvanee, a discount ot 5 per cent, will oe allowed,
an-1 for over 5H'I a discount ot HI per cent.
In considering the advantages ol emigrating to
this locality the following are presented:
1'irxt The soil is a rich limestone, capable of
raising the heaviest crops, owing to which this set
tlement has attained its present great prosperity.
Sirond It is the centre of the great North West
Coal Basin, and is destined soon to become one of
the greatest business places in the State. It will
supply the great Luke market, (according to popu
lation and travel the greatest in the, Union.) It
has five workable vcincs of the best "Bituminous
Coal, amounting in the aggregate to over 22 feet,
which makes 22.000 tons of coal under each acre.
This will make the land of inestimable 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
ore and the limestone. This report together with
maps will be furui-he I to inquirers.
Vnnrth Three railroads arc laid out throngh
this property. The Sunbury and Eric Railroad
givesjis a market forourcoal to the Lakes it runs
from Erie to Philadelphia. A largo part of this
mad has been finished, and is now in running or
der. A heavy force is now working from Eric to
wards our land in the western direction, the means
for the completion of which has been raised it
will soon be finished. The Allegheny Yallcy Rail
road connects us with New York, Boston and Pitts
burg. The Yenango Road connects ns w ith the
Wo't.
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.
There is no opportunity equal to it now offered
to the man who wants to provide himself a home
in an easy way, and make a settlement where ho
can live in prosperity and independence in a cli
mate PERFECTLY HEALTHY.
No case of fever ever having been known to oc
cur in this settlement. It is not like going to the
backwoods of the West, among perhaps intollcrant
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 in the world, has to endure sickness and
pain, and perhaps ruins his health and that of his
family. But here is a thriving seulcmcnt having
three towns, containing churches, schools, hotels,
stores, saw mills, grist mills, and everything do
sired. There is a cash market nt 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 ; they are at present starting them t
tensively at Warren. Even for those who do not
wish to go there, the payments are such that they
can easily buy a farm to save their rising families
from want in tho future, or to gain a competence
by the rise which will take place tu the value ot
lands By an outlay scarcely missed, a substan
tial provision can be made
Persons should make early application, applv or

The Tribune deals with questions of Political
Economv, Public Policy. Ethics, Material Progress
and whatever mav affect the Intellectual. Moral,
Social and Physical well be.ng of mankind, dog
matic Theology alone excepted. Its leading idea
is the honoring of honest useful Work in w hatever
sphere or capacity, and the consequent elevation
of the Laboring class in knowledge, virtue and
general esteem. It is necessarily hostile to Slave
ry under all its aspects, to Intemperance in what
ever form or deirree 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 the" farmer while diminishing that of
Bread tothe artisan, by reducing the distance a
cross which their respective products are exchang
ed and, of course, reducing the cost of their trans
far. Regarding Fillibusterism in all its phases,
and every form and device of National covctous
ness, 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
developement and beneficence nt home, foremost
among which wo 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 arc not yet fairly difiributed.
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 docs
not countervail the dictates of eternal Morality
nor war upon that natural right of every one to
whatsoever he 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 thechild trained up iu
the way he should go. will rarely in after years
desert that way for the thorny paths of Yice and
Crime that a truc Education Religious, Moral
and Industrial as well as Intellectual is the most
effective temporal antidote to the errors and woes
of our raee. lteeojrntiirg in the most degraded
specimen of Humanity a divinespark which should
bo reverently cherished, not ruthlessly trodden
out. we have charity for all forms of evil but those
which seek personal advantago through the de
basement of our fellow-beings. The champion of
no class or caste, the devotee of 110 sect, we would
fain be the iuterpreter to each other of men's bet
ter impulses and aspirations, the harbinger of
general concord between Labor and Capital, and
among those whom circumstance, or misapprehen
sions haxe thrown into unnatural antagonism. A
cotemporary once observed that he never knew a
hard, grasping, niggardly employer who did not
hate -The I'ribur.'.v nor a generous, large-soulcd,
kindly one, willing to live an.l let live, who did
not like it. We ask no higher praise, no warmer
attestation
Tho circulation of The Tribune is at this time
ns follows: Pwly. 32. 000 copies; Weekly. 17t. 800
copies; Semi-Weekly, lti.ono copies; California
and European, ti,o00 copies; Total. 2.'W.S00 copies.
That of the Semi-Weekly and Weekly we believe
to be exceeded by no other newp:iper published
in tho world; that of the Daily falls behind that
of some of onr cotemporaries. Hadonr 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 concei ted effort has been made to di
minish our rural circulation through the influence
of the Postmasters, some of whom embark in it
eagerly, others under t-olitieal 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 feci the heavy
hand of Power, and have doubtless 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 w ithin reach of their subscribers and
rightful owners, and their retention in the Post
Oilicc till their value was destroyed. Postmasters
have been schooled by rival journals several of
them living on their sell-proclaimed ability to
serve as an antidote to ihe lribune ns to their
political duty to promote at our exp-ensc the dis-
semmination ot gazelles ol adverse politics, lie
shall outlive this warfare, but we do not affect in
difference to it. In the ooen field of discussion,
we fear nothing; but in the tens of thousands of
rural neighborhoods where tho Posmaster can in
duce many of his quiet neighbors to take the jour
nal he recommeuds.wo have already lost some pa
trons. and expect to lose more as our subscriptions
for this year expiro. We appeal, therefore, to the
hearty, faithful, fearless advocates of Free Labor
and Free Soil throughout the land to take care
that this official warfare on our circulation be not
prosecuted without counteraction. -We employ no
travelling agents, for wo will not consent to have
the p'.iblic harrassed with tho solicitations of stran
gers in our behalf. We strike tho name of ench
subscriber to our Weekly and Semi-Weekly fiom
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 papers which" perhaps they never read : we re
ly lor tho renewal of our subscriptions solely on
the volunteered efforts of those who, liking our pa
per, believe its influence salutary and worthy to
be extended; and thus far our reliance has been
justiltod. as we trust it may continue to be.
