thorpe), Laura, and Steppingstone.

We are happy to observe that the prosperity of
I Eliza Cook's Journal not only continues but increases.
The editor—for we observe that the lady disclaims the
feminine termination when speaking of herself in her
official capacity—has issued an address to her readers on
the commencement of the new year, full of satisfaction
and acknowledgments for the past and bright hopes for
the future. Although we may not coincide with all the
sentiments she has recorded in such glowing and elo-
quent language, we yet believe this lady to be one of the
most sincere and energetic workers in the great cause of
social ameliorations and improvements ; and if some of
her opinions appear rather extreme, or a little heterodox
in politics, we still believe her to be in the main a friend
to peace, law, and order—good manners and good
morals. While we see reason to maintain this faith her
clever and well-conducted little publication shall receive
our general support without quibbling about details,—
Chronicle.
