The Leading American Newspaper. 
“NEVER SO GOOD AS IT IS TO-DAY.” 
The unanimous and unsolicited verdict of 
the hundreds of thousands of readersof THE TRI- 
BUNE, is that the paper was never so good as atthe 
present time. During the past year it has enlarged its 
field 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 saffairs, with 
most encouraging prospects. THE TRIBUNE, how- 
ever, believes in deeds rather than in words, in results 
sather thanin promises. It points to its record and its 
eolumns for the past twelve months as the best evi- 
dence of what it has done, and the most satisfactory 
pledge of whatit willdo. All the distinctive features 
of the paper will be 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 stil further ad- 
vanced. : 
Asan 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, 
andn> Farmer can afford to be without it unless he 
can atiord also to be without all the market reports— 
eattle, 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 m the severest man- 
ner by the late Board of U. 8. Officers, appointed by 
the Government to select the best arm for the service; 
and after examining over one hundred different sys- 
tems, includiug the best guns of Europe, sa 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 Amerlcan target 
nes weighing 10 pounds and having peep and globe 
sights. 
We are now making these guns to supply thenu- 
merous demands, and will soon have them in the 
market.
