With able and trusted Correspondents in the lead ing capitals, and wherever great changes are in progress, THE TRIBUNE aims, at 1 whatever cost, to lay before its readers the most prompt, complete, and popular popular presentment of these diverse and conflicting movements ts,-through all of which, as it fondly trusts. the toiling masses are everywhere struggling up tow ard larger recognition and brighter fu- ture. .
 At home the struggle for Freedom seems over. The last slave has long been a citizen; the last opposition to enamel patton, acknowledgement, equal civil rights, has been formally abandoned. Eo party, North or South, longer disputes the result of the war for the Union; all declare that f these results must never be undone; and, with whole people thus united on the grand platform of All Rights for all, whereto our bloody struggle, and the pro led us, the Republic closes the records of the bitter, hateful Pest, end turns peace fully, hopefully. to the less alarming be- cause less vital problems of the Future. To whatever may elucid2te the general discussion or action on these, THE TRI- BUNE gives amplest space and most inn partial record. Whatever parties may propose, whatever political leaders may say, whatever officers may do, is fairly set down in it's columns. whether this news helps or flinders it's own views. It's read CTS have the right to an honest statement of the facts; and this they always get.
 But as to it's own political principles, THE TRIBUNE is of course, hereafter as heretofore, the champion of Equal Rights, irrespective of Race. Nativity. or Color. It stands infexibly by the Amendments for the permanent security of those Rights, which have been solemnly incor- porated by the People, in the Constitu- tion of the United States Independent of all political parties, it endeavors to treat them all with judicial fairness. It labors to purify the administration of Government, National, State, and Munici- pal, and whenever those in authority, whether in National, State or Municipal affairs, take the lead in this work. it will therein 'give them it's cordial support. But it can never be the servitor of any political party; nor will 1t surrender or even waive it's right to criticise and con- damn what is wrong, and commend what is right in the action of any parties or of any public men.
 Now, as always, The Tribune labors with all it's heart for the promotion of the great material interests of the country. The progress of invention and of Labor Saving, the development of our resources, the preservation of our land for the land less, and it's rapid subjugation to human wants, the utilization of our vast under lying ores, the extension of the facilities for bringing Producer and consumer near CT together,-whatever tends to swell the ranks, increase the knowledge and better the condition of those devoted to Produc- tive Industry finds mention and encour- agement in our columns,
 The Weekly Tribune, now more than thirty years old, has endeavored to keep up with the progress of the age in i'm provement and in enterprise. It devotes large share of it's columns to Agricul- ture as the most essential and general of human pursuits. It employs the ablest and most successful cultivators to set forth in brief, clear essays, their practical views of the Farmers work. It reports public discussions which elucidate that work; gathers from every source agricul- tural news, the reports of the latest exper- iments, the storles of the latest successes and failures, and whatever may tend at once to better agriculture, and to com mend it as the first and most important of progressive arts, based on natural sci ence.
 There are hundreds of thousands en- gagged in diverse pursuits who own or rent "place," and give some portion of their time to its culture and improvement. The Weekly Tribune shows them how to make l the most or their ruods aa,d their hours. both by direction and example. No in formation equal in quality or quantity can be elsewhere obtained for the price of this journal.
 The Weekly Tribune appeals also to Teachers, Students, and persons of in quiring minds, by the character of its Literary contents, which include reviews of all the works proceeding from the mas ter minds of the Old or of the New World, with liberal extracts from those of especial interest. Imaginatiue Litera- ture also claims attention, but in Q sub l ordinate degree. "Home Interests are discussed weekly by lady specially qual- | flied to instruct and interest her own sex, and the younger portion of the other. No column is more eagerly sought or pursued with greater average profit than hers
 The News of the Day. elEcidated by brief comments, is so condensed that no reader can deem it difuse, while given sufficiently in detail to satisfy the wants of the av- craze reader. Selections are regularly made from the extensive correspondence of the Daily Tribune from every country, and it's editorials of more permanent value are here reproduced. In short, the Week ly Tribune commends itself to millions by ministering to their intellectual wants more fully than they are met by any other journal, while its regular reports of the Cattle. Country Produce, and other- Mar
 kets, will of themselves save the farmer
 who regularly notes them far more than his journals price. For the family circle of the educated
 farmer or artisan, the Weekly Tribune has no superior, as is proved by the hun-
 dreds of thousands who, having read it
 from childhood, still cherish and enjoy it
 in the prime and on the down hill of life.
 We respectfully urge those who know its
 worth to commend the Weekly Tribune
 to their friends and neighbors, and we
 proffer it to clubs at prices which barely lpay the cost of paper and press-work.
