NEW VOLUME. On the seventh OF Septem-

] UNE commenced the twenty first year of its exs-
1 tencs: THE DAILY TRIBUNE being some months
older and the SEMI-WEEKLY TRIBUNE some
what younger For more than twenty wears. this

War, and witnessed the forbearance, meekness. and

its overthrow. But on all questions affecting the
