We may take the opportunity of expressing our acknow-
ledgment, in common with our fellow journalists of the Irish
press, to the conductors of The Sun newspaper, for the highly
creditable exertion and enterprise by which they produce
such ample and accurate reports/of public proceedings in
Parliament and the law courts in their afternoon editions each
day, thus anticipating completely, and to the great accom-
modation of the provincial press through the country, the
reports in the London morning papers. We have in its
number of Thursday a report embracing all the proceedings
before the House of Lords down to its adjournment, from
which we shall compile our report.— Cork Southern Reporter.
