truly dreadful during the rist ,reek. A kind of hurricane WI

two, have er, we
town, and not one paper, btl
fear, to rise again. The papers,_
which we allude were bo•
.h high Tory, th,i Liverpool Slander
and the Lancashire Herald; the first published twice, and th°
second once a week. The Standard was originally started hi
the Tories of Livz!rtaaol, who subscribed a handsome sum 69',
its support : it did brit, however, flourish as a trading concern
and after involv',ng certain gentlemen in heavy peeuniarit
liabilities, and.. bringin,c, no little odium upon their heads, :t
was by them consigned to the late " sole proprietor," under
whose urdortunate man agement it came to a miserable death
on the night of Thursday last, after having existed for uPci
wards of six years. The Herald died on Monde) : it had
been published about fiva months, and, though edited by Pr'
Magian, with all his usual ability, never gave any indication
of a vigorous life. Peaize to the ashes of the defunct 'for .
organs, the Standard and the Reraldl We shall never
their like again.-.Albion.
