THE WEEKLY TRIBUNE is now in It's xxti
Volume. During tho past year the TRIBUNE has
been Obliged to devote quite large portion OF Its
space 10 politics, but We shall henceorth be able TO

both Popular and General. will be discussed In our
columns throughout the year 1861. and we hope to
enlist In that discussion some Of the profou ndest
thinkers and the abest instructors In our country

cause ofEiueatlon shall receive IN impetus from
the eIertions Of THE TRIBUNE in Its behalf dur
Ing the year 1861.
III AGRICuLTURE.-We lave been compelled
TO restrict our calculations Of this great Interest
throughout 1850, and shall endeavor to atone
therefor In 1861. Whatever discovery, deduction,
demonstration, Is calculated to render the reward
oflabor devoted to cultivation more ample or more
certain, shall receive prompt and full attention.
