The Sqvel to that Stbasoe Affair. We
haw received a letter from Daniel Moore, Esq,
in which he states that on the evening of the
tltti instant, Mr. Edward Sexton, of Washing
ton connty, Pa., came to his house, and iden
tified the horse and buggy, which had been
left there on the 3rd of October, as belonging
to him. He presented a hand-hill, dated Oct.
4th, setting forth that, on the 2Sth of Septem
ber, a man answering the description of that
"intelligent" and "gentlemanly" stringer,
calling himself William Stevens, bacl hired a
liorse and buggy to goto Pittsburg; that ho
did not return them at the time specified ; and
offering fifty dollars reward for the property
and thief, or $25 for the horse and buggy a
lune. Mr. Wm. Steep, of the Washington Re
tine accompanied Mr. Sexton. 1 The reward of
$25 wan paid to Dr. Lock, e Lewistown, who
h.lcome to Karthaus on a hunting excursion
during the fall, and having stopped with Mr.
Moore, saw the horse, was made acquainted
'Uh the circumstance, and on his return home,
seeing ono of Mr. Sexton's hand-bills, inform
ed the Utter of the whereabouts of his proper
ty. Sexton paid Mr. Moore his bill for keep
ing the horse with the exception of a balance
of $1G, lor which he gave his note. Mr. Moore
thinks it "strange," indeed, that such a per
feet gentleman" as "A" of Saltlick described
the strangor to be, "should so tar forget him
self as to steal," and that others should at
tempt to cast reflections upon him for seeking
to deal out justice to him, and be "so willing
to espouse the cause of a stranger."
Y e nna in the Washington Review of the
-Mh, an account of the whole affair, corrobo
rating tlie above, and expressing the opinion
that ".Mr. Mevcns will not bo likely to cal-
ior me oorso and buggy jook."

CiilBRiA County. tlie Etensb'tlfg JttTehd:
niun 'gives some details of a case tried in
the Xjxiarter Sessions of that 'county, develop
ing tne most norribie treatment uiat was in
flicted tapoto a boy toko had been indicted far
itrccny. It appears that a boy named John
W. rarrell liiied himself last summer to
Michael Kennedy, of Carroll township. ' A
pocket book, said to have contained $30, soon
after turned up missing, and suspicion imme
diately fell upon the boy, who strenuously de
nied the theft. Kennedy then attempted to
extort a confession from tho lad by placing a
rope around his neck and, after throwing the
end a cross abeam, drawing the boy up a
considerable height. Having failed, after
several experiments of this kind to produce
the desired effect, the boy was extended on a
log, forcibly held down, and an axe brandish
ed over his throat. The boy, as ho says, to
save his life, admitted that he had taken the
money, and proposed to find it if he was re
leased. As soon as ho found himself free, he
took to his heels, but was soon caught, taken
before a magistrate, and upon this confession,
extorted by bodily fear and harm, was prose
cuted for larceny. The court refused to take
the prosecutor's testimony, and the boy was
acquitted. A collection U his behalf was ta
ken inside the Bar, and a considerable sum
realized. A charge has been instituted a
gainst Kennedy for assault and battery with
iutent to kill. ... The same paper says that
some two or three weeks ago, two men, named
Snyder and Edwards, left their homes in Bed
ford county with the intention of going to
the Cherry Tree to get out lumber. Snyder
carried with him the- proceeds of the sale of
a horse, which.be had disposed of before
ftarting. Some considerable time elapsed,
and Edwards returned to his home without his
companion. 1 When questioned as to Snyder's
whereabouts, - he was unable - to tell a very
straight story ; but at length stated that . be
had left him in Ebensburg. On Saturday,'
loth, the father and brother of the missing
man were at Ebensburg in search of him, but
they failed to obtain a clue to - the mystery,
except that a man answering Edwards' des
cription was in town some time during Court.
The father and brother of Snyder returned to
Bedford on Monday, with the avowed intention
of arresting Edwards on suspicion of murder.

THE TRIBUNE FOR 1801 PROSPEC
T US. The XXth Volume of the Weekly Tri
bune commenced with the isue of Sept. I. Dur
ing the pa?tyear TheTrtbftne has been obliged to
devote quite a large proportion of its space to pol
itics, hat We shall soon be abfe to forego Political
discussions almost entirely, for months if not for
years, and devote nearly all our columns to sub
iects of less intense, but more abiding, interest. A-
mong these, we mean to pay especial attention te
I. Education. The whole subject of Education,
both Popular and General, will be discussed in
our columns throughout the year 1861, and we
hope to elicit in that discussion some of the pro
foundest thinkers and the ablest instructors in our
country. It is at once our hope and our resolve
that the cause of Education shall receive an im
petus from the exertions of The Tribune in its be
half during the year 1861.
II. Agriculture. We have been compelled to
restrict our elucidations of this great interest
throughout 1860.and shall endeavor to atone there
for in 1361. Whatever discovery, deduction, de
monstration, is calculated to render the reward of
labor devoted to cultivation more ample or more
certain, shall receive prompt and full attention.
III. .Manufactures, Ac. Mre hail every in
vention or enterprise whereby American Capital
and Labor are attracted to and advantageously
employed in any department of Manufacturing or
Mechanical Industry as a real contribution to the
Public Weal, insuring ampler, steadier, more con
venient, more remunerating markets to the Farm
er, with fuller employment and better wages to
the Laborer. The progress of Mining, Iron-Making,
Steel-Making, Cloth-Weaving, Ae., in our
country and the world, shall be watched and repor
ted by us wittuan earnest and active sympathy.
IV. Foreign Affairs. We employ the best cor
respondents in London, Paris, Turin, Berlin, and
other European Capitols, to transmit us early and
accurate advices of the great changes there silent
ly but certainly preparing. In spite of tbe pres
sure of Domestic Politics, our News from the Old
0rld is now varied and ample; but we shall
nave to render it more perfect during the event
ful year just before us.
. V. HomrNews. We employ regular paid cor
respondents in California, at the Isthmus of Da
rien, in the Rocky Mountain gold region, ot wher
ever else they seem requisite.. From the more ac
cessible portions of our own country, we derive
our information mainly from tbe multifarious or
respondents of the Associated Press. fro& our ex
changes, and the occasional letters of intelligent
friends. We aim to print the cheapest general
newspaper, with tbe fullest ana meet autkentio
summary of useful intelligence, that is anywhere
aflorded. Hoping to "make each day a critic n
the last," and print a better and better papetfreui
year to year, as cur means are steadily enlarged
through tbe generous co-operation of our many
well-wishers, we solicit, and shall labor to de
serve, acontmuanoe ot public lavor.
