"NEVER SO GOOD AS IT IS TO-DAY." 

 The unanimous and unsolicited verdict of 

 the hundieds of thousands of readers of THE TRI- 

 BUNE, is that the paper was never so good as at the 

 present time. During the past year it has enlarged its 

 fteld and improved its facilities in every direction, and 

 enters upon the year 1874, which is to be one of the 

 most important in public and political affairs, with 

 most encouraging prospects. THE TRIBUNE, how- 

 ever, believes in deeds rather than in words, in results 

 ttather tli'in in promises. It points to its record and its 

 aolumns for the past twelve mouths as the best evi- 

 dence of what it has done, and the most satisfactory 

 pledge of what it will do. All the distinctive feature's 

 of the paper willbe preserved and strengthened; the 

 "Extras," whose sale has reached hundreds of thou- 

 sands, will be continued; the front of its new building 

 completed, and the present admitted pre-eminence of 

 the paper, not only maintained, but sti.l further ad- 

 vanced. 



As ati invaluable paper for the Farmers 

 of the whole country THE TRIBUNE fully maintains 

 Its well known and admitted position. It publishes 

 much more matter of interest to Farmers and their 

 families than any of the strictly "agricultural" papers, 

 and n > Farmer 'can afford to be without it unless he 

 can aliord also to be without all the market reports — 

 c&ttle, grain and produce— information of agricultural 

 events and progress, and all the general news of the 

 day. To every intelligent Farmer THE TRIBUNE is 

 simply indispensable.

This Rifle, after being tested in the severest man- 

 ner by the late Board of TJ. S. Officers, appointed by 

 uhe Government to select the best arm for the service; 

 and after examining over one hundred different sys- 

 tems, including the best guns of Europe, say of it, 

 ' that it is the best rifle they have seen, or of which 

 they have any knowledge. They therefore recom- 

 mend it for trial in the hands of the troops. A seven 

 pound carbine on this plan, with coarse military sights, 

 has made better targets at Creedmoor the past sum- 

 mer, than the best English and American target 

 Rifles weighing 10 pounds and having peep and globe 

 sights. 



We are now making these guns to supply the nu- 

 merous demands, and will soon have them in the 

 market. 



The following is our scale of prices: — 

 SPECIAL MAGAZINE RIFLE for large, game, 



carrying from 3 to 8 cartridges, 70 to 85 grs. of 



powder, 350 to 400 grs. of lead, 8 to 10 lbs.

and upwards, according to finish. 



SPECIAL LONG RANGE MAGAZINE RIFLE 



for Creedmoor shooting, 90 grs. of powder. 480 



grs. of lead, carrying 3 to 8 charges, weight, 10 



lbs. from $100 



and upwards.

to 9 cartridges. 60 grs. powder, 350 grs. lead 



I from $40.00
