THE SUN EXPRESSES.

Our columns this day contain testimonials from
Many of. our Provincial Contemporaries to the exertions
of The. Sun, in diffusing a full report. of the- Debate
•and Division on the Amendment to the Address.- We
leave these to speak for. themselves, cordiallly thanking.
our friends for their spontaneous approbation.
Though generally the first to communicate early
• intelligence, we are never wilfUlly chargeable with arro-
.gating to ourselves any merit which of right belongs to
others. But it appears that in the case of the division
on the Speakership—the result of which was con-
veyed to Ireland by means of a telegraphic despatch
from Liverpool to Holyhead, and. thence 'forWarded
by Steam-boat to Dublin, the sole merit belongs to the
-Dublin Evening Mail. It is not attempted to be
denied that The Sun exclusively conveyed a full re-
port of the debate on that occasion, but the an-
nouncement of the division had arrived twelve hours
previously to the Dublin Evening Mail. We
admit that fact : but how did the Mail ob-
tain - the result ? By an express of its own
from London ? Certainly not. But by means of
the Sun Newspaper, Which excluSively conveyed that
news to Liverpool, first by an Express direct on the
Liverpool road, and second, by another Express by way
of Manchester, having engaged a Steam Car on the
Railway to make assurance doubly sure. At Liver-
pool, Mr. WILLMER told the proprietor •of this
Paper, that he had engaged with a Gentleman
from the Dublin Evening Mail, to furnish him
with- the news from The Sun Express, and to forward
it by telegraph to Holyhead upon the Dublin Evening
Mail undertaking to acknowledge the news as from The
-Sun. This was agreed to. But the Dublin Evening "Wail
not only has not fulfilled its promise, but turns round
on The Sun for stating the truth. We admire the spirit
and enterprise of the Dublin Evening Mail; but it
should extend the same liberality to others. The
whole question lies in a nutshell—Did the Even-
ing IWail run- an express from London to
Liverpool with the news—or did it not receive it by
means of The Sun Express, as stated above ? The
Sun conveyed the news to Liverpool—the telegraph
to Holyhead—and the DUblin Evening Mail to
Dublin. These are the facts.
