Bars UcnxT. On the afternoon of the 5th
inf .. the barn of Mr. Thomas Dougherty, ! in
Perm township, was destroyed by fire. Mr. D
had taken his horses out to -do some hauling
to the Kiver, and cannot conjecture how the
fire originated. "A quantity ol grain was
burned with the building. The loss will not
xcced S.200 or $300,as the barn "was a rather
poor one. ----.
Mas Killed. On last Friday, the 9th inst.,
Mr. Gould Wilson, of Huston township, was
instantly kiled whilst putting logs, into Sin
ncmahpning creek, near his home. It seems
the logs were pilled up, and as he was in the
act of walking by three of them rolled oil the
Tiile, and passing over him, caused his death.
He was about 30 years of age, and leaves
wiftt and several children to mourn his imma
ture end.
Accident. We learn that on last Thursday,
the 7th inst., "Mr. Thomas II. Forcey, of Gra-
-hatnton, this county, whilst attempting to
snub" a raft at Moore's landing, was in some
manner canght by the rope and thrown with
such violence as to render linn senseless lor a
considerable length of time, ami severely in
jiired his lt'gs. lie was taken to Moore's
house and restoratives and remedies applied,
which had the effect of restoring conscious
iirss and alleviating his Injuries.
The Weatuer, ltc The air has become
quite mild again, and, from present indica
tions, will have some rain in n, few days. The
river is low and will require a good deal of
lain to make a rifting stage. Some little
work is going on, on the river banks, in tho
way of loading shingles and sawed fumbc r ,
tmt, persons generally, feel -somewhat tardy
about running timber at this time, on account
of the tightness of money matters. All be-h-ve,
however, that, by tho time there is water
enough to run, money will become more plen
ty, and that timber will command remunera
ting prices, in the markets below.
The Lr mij Kit Trade. The Lock Haven
Watchman, of March 7th, says :
Some few raits have arrived at this place
"n their way to market, but we have le irned
if no sales being made, consequently we can
it give the price of lumber. Holders are
usVmg from 8 to 1"' cents per cubic foot for
H"ud white pine. From below we learn that
;lu milis have commenced running on full
irne. and that the lumber business opens

. A Wail from Florida. The Pon.sayli Ob
ner already raises a piteous wail for Florida.

"ut arms, and with nothing to cat but s-tlt pork
milliard biscuit, which they had stolen from
I aclo Sam's soldiers. And sixty Manarl ri
lies which they have been long waiting for,
came t last, but Gov. Terry went right away
;md gave ttcrn t-o a ival company. If they
had disbanded at once," says the Observer,
"every right-thinking perscn would have sus-
Mitiea their action." If thev had staid at
i omo and not banded at all, every right-think
!) person would have called them sensible
''en. Ent the most piteous wail of the Obser-
"rr is as follows : ' .
'Florida will soon be called upon to furnish
her quota of men for the regular army of the
''ithern Confederacy. This quota has been
I r.t down at 1,000 men. With an empty treas-
T. we cannot im.igine how she can enlist,
'i!:ip and arm this number. If our Siato is
h-uiKrupt at this early stage of the action, we
'1,n the sooner she sells out the better. If
l!;t; -Mate Government cannot be carried on for
ailt f'f funds, let Florida be divide! between
'r sister States of Georgia and Alabama, by

EFFECT OF DELAYING KEINFORCEMENTS !
COS SEQUENCES OF: PRESIDENT BU
CHANAN'S POLICY !
Washington , March IItu, 1861.
major anderson the cabinet fort sumter.
"An'official loiter from Major Anderson, re
ceived on Saturday, says he had only fifteen
days subsistence and wood on hand. The
question has therefore arisen-with the Ad
ministration whother reinforcements shall be
attempted, or the fort abandoned. The latter
course, it is thought, will be adopted, from
inevitable necessity, by the advice of Lieut.
General Scott.
3IKETINQ OF THE CABINET.
The Administration has not yet determined
its policy concerning Fort Sumter, although
it was discussed in Cabinet on Saturday night
and yesterday, (Sunday). Major Anderson
must either be reinforced or withdrawn ; the
first pioposiiioii involves a war. Mr. Bu
chanan left this complication purposely in its
present position.
HEPORTS.D EVACCATION OF FORT SCMTER. .'
The latest advices are that Fort Sumter will
be evacuated by the' United States forces.
The question is wholly a military one, and
must be decided on military ground.
We tire not enabled td judge, at this time,
of the truth of the report, and therefore feel
disposed to await further advices. There is
otie thing certain, if Mr. Lincoln withdraws
Major Anderson from, his present position, it
will be lor the most weighty reasons. As Mr.
Holt admits, the responsibility for such a
course would rest on the previous administra
tion rather than on the present. Buchanan
permitted the South Carolinians to go on in
building fortifications around the harbor, with
out molestation, lor more than five months.
If he Lad oxercised his authority at tho prop
er time, Fort Sumter would now be prepared
to withstand a jirotracted siege, while to rein
force it at the present will certainly involve a
great amount of bloodshed. The question of
reinforcement, therefore, is a much graver
one now than it was several months ago, when
it couldjiave been accomplished without se
rious opposition. It appears that Gen. Scott
now opposes the movement as earnestly as he
advocated it last winter, and if Mr. Lincoln
has resolved on the course suggested by the
Washington advices, wc presume it is through
tho persuasion cf that eminent and patriotic
military chieftain.
Reverence for the old Flag. There was
an affecting scene at San Antonio, Texas, ns
the United States troops marched ; out of the
city, which is thus described by The .it a mo
Express: "A large concourse of citizens bad
collected to bicl the troops of war good -by,
ind when the two companies, under the com
mand of Major Siqith and C.iptain King,
marched out with colors flying and hand play
ing the national airs, and the old bullet-riddled
and war-stained banner of the 8th Regiment
floating in the breeze, there- was a most pro-
lo iod seiisit'On among the people ; strong
man wept. havo never seen so much fee
ling evinced on any occasion. The people
cheered tho troops all along the streets, and
many followed them to. the head of the Sau
Pedro, wlicre the- encamped."
A Si.aveii Converted into a War Vessel.
The Savanvali Newt learns, that the slave
brig llouita bus been taken in eliaige by Gov.
Brown, and a detachment from the UoastGuard
put on board of .her. She will be thoroughly
armed, and take her place lor the protection
of the coast. The Honiti w;is captured some
M'rni since on the cou.it of Africa as a slaver,
and takpn to Charleston, but there being no
United Stares Court, she was brought to Sa

TIM HE THIIJUNi; FOR J SOL PKOSPEf7
JL XL'S. The XXth Yo'.nroe of the Weekly Tri
bune commenced tvith tho Issue of Sept. I. Dur
ing the past year The Tribune ha twjn obliged to
devote quite a large proportion of its space to pol
ities, but we shall soon be able to forego Political
discussion? almost entirely, for months if not for
j-ears, and devote nearly all our columns to sub
jects of less intense", but more abiding, interest. A
monpr these, wo mean to pay especial attention to
I. Eiiucation. The whole subject of Education,
both Popular and General, will bo discurwd in
our columns throughout the year Ij-OI, and we
hope to elicit in that discussion some of the pro
fouudest thinkers and the ablest instructors in our
country. It is at once our hope and our resolve
that tho cause of Education shall receive iid im
petus from the exertions of The Tribune in its be
half during the year ISol .
II. Agiiktltuk n. We hnve been compelled fo
rennet- our elucidations of this great interest
throughout lSi"'0.and shall endeavor to atone there
for in 1861. Whatever discovery, deduction, de
monstration, is calculated to render the reward of
labor devoted to cultivation more ample or moro
certain, shall receive prompt and full attention.
III. Manlfacti rks, Ac. We hail every in
vention or enterprise whereby American Capital
and Labor aro attracted to and advantageously
employed in any department of Manufacturing or
Mechanical Industry as a real contribution to tho
Public Weal, insuring ampler, steadier, more. con
venient, more remunerating markets to the Farm
er, with fuller employment ami better wages to
the Laborer. The progress of Mining, Iron-Ma-kinjr,
Steel-Makinr, Cloth-Weaving, Ac, in our
country and the world, shall be watched aud rcpor-
leu oy us wnu an earnest aim active syinpatny.
IV. Fokeiun Affairs. We employ the beat cor
respondents in London, Taris, Turin, Berlin, and
other European Capitols, to transmit us early and
accurate advices ot the great changes there silent
ly but certainly preparing. In spite of the pres
sure of Domestic Politics, our News from the Old
World is now varied and ample; but wo shall
have to render it more perfect during the event
ful year just before us.
V. Home Nkws. We employ regular paid cor
respondents in California, at the Isthmus of Da
rien, in the Rocky Mountain sold region, or wher
ever else thev seem requisite. From the more ac
cessible portions of our own country, we derive
our information mainly from the multifarious cor'
respondents of the Associated Press, from our ex
changes, and the occasional letters of intelligent
friends. Wc aim to print the cheapest general
newspaper, with the fullest and most authentic
summary of useful iutelligenee. that is anywhere
auorlcu. Jioping to "make ench day a critic on
the last," and print a better and better paper from
year to year, as cur means are steadily eularged
through the generous co-operation of our mar.y
well-wishers, wo solicit, and shall labor to de
serve, a continuance of public favor.
