400 DOUGLASS' MONTHLY. JANUARY, 1861. [[line]] [[3 columns]] [[column 1]] ADVERTISEMENTS. [[double line]] THE TRIBUNE FOR 1861. [[short line]] PROSPECTUS. The XXth Volume of the WEEKLY TRIBUNE commenced with the issue of Sept. 1. During the past year, The Tribune has been obliged to devote quite a large proportion of its space to Politics, but we shall soon be able to forego Political discussion almost entirely, for months if not for year, and devote nearly all our columns to subjects of less intense, but more abiding, interest. Among these, we mean to pay especial attention to, I. EDUCATION. - The whole subject of Education, both Popular and General, will be discussed in our columns throughout the year 1861, and we hope to elicit in that discussion some of the profoundest thinkers and the ablest instructors in our country. It is at once our hope and our resolve that the cause of Education shall receive an impetus from the exertions of The Tribune in its behalf during the year 1861. II. AGRICULTURE - We have been compelled to restrict our elucidations of this great interest throughout 1860, and shall endeavor to atone therefore in 1861. Whatever discovery, deduction, demonstration, is calculated to render the reward of labor devoted to cultivation more ample or more certain, shall receive prompt and full attention. III. MANUFACTURES, &c. - Whe hail every invention or enterprise whereby American Capital and Labor are attracted to and advantageously employed in any department of Manufacturing or Mechanical Industry as a real contribution to the Public Weal, issuing ampler, steadier, more convenient, more remunerating markets to the Farmer, with fuller employment and better wages to the Laborer. The progress of Mining, Iron-Making, Steel-Making, Cloth-Weaving, &c., &c., in our country and the world, shall be watched and reported by us with an earnest and active sympathy. IV. FOREIGN AFFAIRS. - We employ the best correspondents in London, Paris, Turin, Berlin, and other European Capitals, to transmit us early and accurate advices of the great changes there silently but certainly preparing. In spite of the pressure of Domestic Politics, our News from the Old World is now varied and ample; but we shall have to render it more perfect during the eventful year just before us. V. HOME NEWS - We employ regular paid correspondents in California, at the Isthmus of Darien, in the Rocky Mountain Gold Region, and wherever else they seem requisite. From the more accessible portions of our own country, we derive our information mainly from the multifarious correspondents of the Associated Press, from our exchanges, and the occasional letters of intelligent friends. We aim to print the cheapest general newspaper, with the fullest and most authentic summary of useful intelligence that is anywhere afforded. Hoping to 'make each day a critic on the last,' and print a better and better paper from year to year, as our means are steadily enlarged through the generous co-operation of our many well-wishers, we solicit, and shall labor to deserve, a continuance of public favor.

[[short line]] It is well known that Syracuse has long been one of 'the principal depots on the Underground Railroad.' For many years past, fugitives from slavery, varying in number from thirty to nearly two hundred annually, have been sheltered here, and aided hence to Canada, or to places of safety on this side of the St. Lawrence. Since the Fall of 1857, the management of this business has been devolved almost wholly upon the Rev. J. W. LOGUEN and his family, who have fulfilled the duties committed to them very acceptably. They are willing still to keep their house open as an asylum for the oppressed, and to help them on their way to free homes. In order to do this, he must depend upon the contributions of the benevolent in this city and elsewhere, for the support of his family and the aid of those who come to them in distress. All fugitives, coming this way, should be directed to the care of Rev. J. W. LOGUEN, and contributions or subscriptions of money, clothing or provisions, may be sent directly to him, or to such persons as he may designate. Mr. LOGUEN agrees to keep exact accounts of all that he receives and of those whom he shelters and assists, and holds accounts in readiness for the inspection of any friends who will take the trouble to come and examine them. - He will also make semi-annual reports, and present his accounts for examination to gentlemen who have been appointed to audit them. We, the undersigned, citizens of Syracuse, have long known Mr. LOGUEN. We believe him to be a very upright as well as enterprising man, every way qualified to fill the important station which he occupies, and we cordially commend him to the confidence of the benevolent everywhere. We take this occasion to caution the public against one William Brown, sometimes called the Rev. Mr. Brown, sometimes Professor, and at other times Dr. Brown, who has been extensively about the country, claiming to be a friend of the fugitives. We advise all those who wish to make donations for the promotion of this philanthropic enterprise, to make them to Mr. LOGUEN, and to refrain altogether from making them to Mr. Brown. SAMUEL J.

By BERIAH GREEN. Pages 556, 12mo. With Portrait engraved by Ritchie. 'In spite of the modest and to most readers, perhaps uncompromising, title of this volume, it will be found to bear the impress of a vigorous and original mind, and to contain a fund of earnest thought, profound feeling, and eloquent expression. The topics mostly relate to the great practical interests of life, the application of the highest principle to daily affairs, and the influence of Christianity on politics, business, education, and the general relations of society. With a strong faith in the vitality of justice, Mr. Green contends strenuously against every form of oppression, insisting on the exact adjustment of social duties by the standard of ideal right. His powerful reasoning is always accompanied with novel and suggestive illustrations, showing no felicity of statement than sincerity of conviction. No one can peruse the volume without respecting the zeal and integrity of the author, and receiving a new impression of the worth of the principles to which his labors have been devoted.' - [New York Tribune, 29th Sept. 'One thought pervades throughout - that of the absolute supremacy, the all-sovereign authority of the Throne of the Eternal, of great Truth and Justice. They are the life of the world, the soul and substance of whatever has vitality, worth, permanence among men. Here is wisdom and strength, the secret spring of all accomplishment and success. Fidelity is achievement, and unfaithfulness is failure and defeat. The ideal is the standard, to which every thing must be carefully adjusted. All usages and institutions are tried in this light, and each to be accepted as good and worthy only as it may conform to and symbolize the inner Verities. There is warm appreciation of heroism in life, and especially high adoration of Jesus as "the Hero of all Heroes," realization utmost of the perfections of wisdom, virtue, and nobleness in history. And there is correspondingly deep disgust and abhorrence of all baseness. [[/column 2]] [[column 3]] He has indignant loathing and abomination for those wretched idols before whom the multitudes bow down and worship - those cunning, soulless quacks and jugglers who, vaulting up perpetually into the high places of society, busy themselves but to bewitch and bewilder, to befool and destroy.' --[Review in N.
