THE Sux NEWSPAPW li.—This Journal has again distanced all its
competitors. By incredible exertions, its Third Edition of Satur-
day, containing the whole Debate of that day, with the exception
of one or two unimportant speeches at the commencement, which
appeared in its Second Edition, reached Edinburgh by express a
few minutes past one o'clock on Tuesday morning; and thus
brought us the intelligence of the glorious result of the discussion
in the Lords, nearly forty hours before it could have reached us
through the ordinary channels. Enterprise like this deserves the
gratitude of the press and the support of the public.
(From the Glasgow Free Press of Wednesday, April S.)
Linti.ed as our space to-day is, we should be guilty Of inexcus-
able ingratitude did we not here express our warm admiration of
the astonishing efforts of " The Sun" Newspaper, Nyh ch, with a
despatch that is almost incredible, forwarded to this city, by one
o'clock yesterday morning, the conclusion of the Debate in the
Lords on Saturday night, and thus put the public of Glasgow in
possession of what they could not otherwise have obtained until
at least twelve hours afterwards. As " The Sun's" aespatch was
expected, crowds of gentlemen thronged the Exchange until its
arrival, and it may well be conceived with what eagerness the
Paper, when it did arrive; was opened, and with what anxiety
it was read. Next to the expression of their feelings regarding
the result of the Debate, was that of their admiration of the
eflbrts of " The Sun," and it is due to the Paper in question,
that this admiration should merge into a feeling of grateful and
constant patronage.

(From the Glasgow Herald of Friday, April 10.)

By incredible exertions, and at an expense which we cannot
understand, " The Sun "Newspaper printed a full report of the
Debate of Saturday, which did not terminate till eleven o'clock at
night, and transmitted numerous copies by express to all parts of
the country. We see by the Edinburgh Papers that they arrived
in that city about one o'clock on Tuesday morning, and at the
same time they were received here ,• so that there must have been
two expresses to Scotland. Though we could derive no benefit
from this arrival, we are not the less grateful to the Proprietors of
" The Sun " for their spirited exertions, and we trust that public
patronage will in some degree remunerate their enterprise and
liberality.
(From the Glasgow Chronicle of Wednesday, April S.)

We have often had occasion to acknowledge the benefit which
Provincial, Newspapers have derived from the extraordinary ex-
ertions of the. Proprietors of" The Sun," not only by giving the
Debates nearly to the hour of post, but by sending expresses se-
veral hours after the departure of the mails. Of this despatch
another instance was afforded on Saturday night. The division
in the House of Lords was not announced till half-past eleven ;
yet, by the enterprise of the Proprietors, copies of their Paper,
with the whole Debate and Division, reached Edinburgh at two
o'clock, and Glasgow at eight o'clock on Tuesday morning.
Though too late for the whole of our impression, we were thus
enabled to give in a part of it the earliest notice of the Division.
(From the Dumfries Courier of Saturday, April 4.)

We have received a copy of "The Sun" Newspaper, the Pro-
prietors of which have actually accomplished what at first sight
appears to be an impossibility. Though some of their reporters
must have remained in the House of Lords till near midnight,
they actually printed in their Saturday's number, and despatched
to all parts of England on Sunday, a full ,;,?coLsnt of the previous
evening's proceedings. This is altogether extraordinary, and we
confiden ly trust the Proprietors of the excellent print in question
will rise higher and higher in public estimation, and reap more
than ever the reward of their spirited and well-meant exertions.

(From the Dublin Morning Post of Monday, April 6.)

. ,
At a late hour last night we received, by an extraordinary Ex-
press, The Sun" of Saturday, by which we are put in posses-
sion of the adjourned Debate, which was, shortly after two
o'clock on Saturday morning, further adjourned to one o'clock
in the afternoon of the same day.

THE DIVISTON.—The Motion for the Second Reading of the
Catholic Relief Bill was carried in the House of Lords on Satur-
day night by a majority of One Hundred and Five. This most
gratifying and glorious intelligence is contained in the Second
Edition of " The Sun " Newspaper, brought to town by Express.

(From the Cork Constitution of Thursday, April 9.)
The Debate was resumed at one o'clock precisely, and by the
extraordinary and unprecedented exertions of " The Sun " Lon-
don Paper, we were put in possession of the proceedings to the
close of the Debate on the same night!
(From the Cork Mercantile Chronicle of Wednesday, April S.)
NATIONAL TRIBUTE TO MR. O'CONNELL.-..-We had a portion of
the proceedings of the Meeting held at the Mechanics' Institute
on Monday, in type, when the second edition of " The Sun" of
Saturday arrived, bringing to us the conclusion of the Debate on
the Motion in the Lords, for the second reading of the Catholic
Relief BilL We were accordingly obliged, though most reluctantly,
to set aside our previous arrangement, and to postpone to Friday
what we would with great pleasure give our readers this day.
(From the Cork Southern Reporter of Thursday, April 9.)
At an early hour yesterday morning we received an Express
Edition of " The London Sun" of Saturday night, containing a
report of the Debate on the Catholic Relief Bill, up to the division.
We instantly published a bulletin of the gratifying intelligence,
which was forwarded by special conveyances to all the towns on
the Waterford and Limerick lines, at a distance of 30 miles of
road, and to the Dublin and Western lines by the evening
coaches. Our friends in town were put into possession of the
welcome news in about an hour after it had reached us.

(From the Waterford Mirror of Wednesday, April 8.)
RELIEF' BILL—The characteristic industry of « The Sun " has
enabled us to continue our report to an advanced period of Satur-
day. The final result has not yet reached us. While some per-
sons anticipated an adjournment on Monday, the greater number
expected a division towards midnight. A favourable majority was
expected. Some carried their expectations as far as ill.

CATHOLIC Ex..NciparioN.— Since the reflections which we havt
made below were sent to press, we have been enabled, by the
unparalleled exertions of The Sun, to communicate to our
Proceedings on the introduction of the Bill, near!,
up to twelve o'clock. Mr. Peel makes the raising of the qualifi.
readers the
cation for voting in Ireland a part of his measures.
(From the Manchester Guardian of Saturday, March 7.)
By an extraordinary exertion of the very spirited Proprietor:
of The Sun Newspaper, we were, at six o'clock last evening, put

(From the Stamford _News of Friday, March 13.)
The efforts of The Site Evening Newspaper to furnish earlyin-
, formation, exceed any thing ever before attempted by the Pres,
of this or any other kingdom. On Friday last, at noon, we re-
ceived by Express to Stamford, 89 miles from the metropolis,
the whole of Mr. Peel's speech, which was not concluded until
ten on the previous night.
(From the Leicester Chronicle of SaNrday, March 7.)
Mr. Peel began to address the House of Commons at six
o'clock on Thursday evening, on the Catholic Question, and con-
tinued speaking till after ten. By theactivity of the Proprietors
of The San Newspaper, nearly seven columns of the Hon • Gen.
tleman's speech was inserted in a Third Edition of that Paper,
and forwarded to different parts of the kingdom the same night
by express. We obtained a copy of the Paper at two o'clock
yesterday afternoon, and are thus enabled to furnish our readers
with an Outline of Mr. Peel's speech in this week's Paper.
(From the Brighton Herald of :Saturday, March 7.)
As an instance of the spirited exertions of the Proprietors of
The Sun Newspaper, who are indefatigable in their endeavours
to supply the earliest possible information on all matters of mo-
ment, an Express arrived in this town yesterday, at .a quarter
before eleven, a. Mt., being a Third Edition of that Journal, pub.
limbed at half-past twelve the preceding. night, and containing
seven columns of closely printed maiter, consisting of the entire
of Mr. Peel's speech, preparatory to his motion, for the House
resolving itself into a Committee to consider the laws affecting
the Roman Catholics.

(From the Shrewilmry Chronicle of Friday, March 13.}

EARLY News.—The Sun Newspaper, containing the speech of
Mr. Peel, which developer the measures for tranquillising the
United Kingdom, and which measures are sanctioned by his Ma-
jesty and his Cabinet Ministers, was received in the News-room,
in this town, by Express, at six o'clock on Friday last. The
speech which was delivered on Thursday night, in the House of
Commons, London, was actually printed in Shrewsbury on tin
next day, in a Second Edition of the Shrewsbury Chronicle, al-
though we are 150 miles distant from London. The spirit and
vigour of the Proprietors of The Sun Paper have been manifested
on many other occasions.

(From the Manchester Times of Saturday, March 7.)

Mr. Peel concluded his speech at a quarter-past ten o'clock,
two hours and a quarter after the departure of the mails. It is
reported in full in The Sun Newspaper, in which it occupies six
Columns. The Paper was forwarded here by despatch all the
way from London, and arrived about two hours after the mail,
a:though it could not have left London till four hours after the
mail started. Such a length of report, so expeditiously conveyed,
is unprecedented in the history of the Evening Press, and reflects
great credit on Mr. YOUNG, the spirited Conductor of The San,
to whose efforts on former occasions the Press generally has
borne testimony.

(From the Liverpool Chronicle of Saturday, March 7.)

Never, within our recollection, was the anxiety of the pidalic
to obtain intelligence of any public event more decidedly mani-
fested than on this occasion. The active Agent for that most
active Paper, The Sun, had notified to the public, that an ex.
press would arrive with the details of the measure of Catholic
relief ; and, from two o'clock in the thy, Lord-street was
crowded with hundreds of people, anxiously awaiting the arrival
of the news. About seven o'clock, The Sun arrived by express,
and brought a full report of the speech of Mr. Peel (concluded
at half past ten o'clock on the night before) which will be found
in our columns of this thy.

(Frees the Sheffield Mercury of Saturday, March 7.)
EATRAORDINARY.—We hare great pleasure in being able to lay
Wore our readers the speech of Mr. Peel, delivered in the
House of Commons on Thursday evening. Our Private Corre-
spondent left the Hon. Gentleman speaking at a quarter-past
seven, up to Which period he forwarded a report of his speech.
At a late hour last night we received an Express Edition of The
Sun Evening Paper, which left London after midnight, contain-
ing the whole of the speech; and, as we are indebted to our Con-
temporary for the principal part of what we this day present to
uur readers on the subject, we have great pleasure in giving our
ineed of praise for such unparalleled exertions.
(From the Bristol Mirror cf Saturday, March 7.)

THE CATHOLIC Q (lento:v.—lcor several days past this question
has wholly engrossed the public attention. This city has deeply
participated in the general anxiety respecting the measures to be
proposed to Parliament. Groups of persons were yesterday seer
on our Exchange, anxiously waiting the arrival of an Express
with The Sun Newspaper. To the almost unparalleled exertions
of the Proprietors of this Paper we are indebted for the earliest
information. On its arrival at our Commercial Rooms, about
half-past three o'clock, a gentleman was requested to read Mr.
I'ecl's speech aloud to those around him. NVe do not recollect
to have seen such intense interest excited in this city for many
years.

(From Me Leeds Mercury of Saturday, March 7.)
The exertions of The Sun Newspaper are beyond all praise.
Our readers, and of course ourselves, are indebted to the un.
exampled energy of that.lournal, far the PA-land satisfactory re-
port of Mr. Peel's speech, in developing the plan of Government
for the settlement of the Catholic Claims, contained in the Leeds
Mercury of this day. By the seal and enterprise of that excel-
I •nt Paper, an Express was sent all the distance from London to
Leeds, which brought us the proceedings in Parliament at half-
past ten o'clock on Thursday night. The remainder of the De-
bate was brought to Leeds by our own express, and affords us
the happiness of giving the result of the proceedings in Parlia-
ment on that ever-to-be-remembered night. ,

(From the Leamington Spa Courier of Saturday, March 14.)

Amongst the extraordinary efforts which have been made by
Newspapers at various periods, perhaps none ever equalled that
made on the present occasion by The Sun News!,aper. The
speeches and the state of the poll of the Election for the Uni-
versity, announced at four o'clock on Thursday, were printed to
the extent of two columns in The Sun at half-past eight o'clock
at night, and the Papers containing the report were in Oxford at
six o'clock the next morning. , This is an instance of despatch
never equalled.—Oxford Journal. (We, in comm n with most
other Provincial Journalists, are highly indebted to the unparal-
leled exertions of the Proprietors of The Sun Newspaper for a
weekly supply of early information.)

( From the Staffordshire Advertiser of Saturday, March 7.)
Mr. Peel, on Thursday night, in the House of Commons, in-
troduced the measure of Catholic Concession, as finally arranged
by Government. Our exertions to obtain this most important
proposition in time for our present number have been successful.
We have the satisfaction of communicating the greater part,- and
every important part of the Right Hon. Secretary's speech. It
would be unjust to withhold the fact that our ability to do so is
owing, in a great measure, to the unparalleled eflbrts of the pub-
lisher of The Sun Evening Paper, who himself passed through
this county yesterday evening, in a chaise and four, with his
Papers, containing Mr. Peel's speech, for Dublin. Our Express
met that of The Sun at Birmingham, and brought us a copy of
that Paper.
(From the Macclesfield Courier of Saturday, March 7.)

Tug SUN NEWSPAPER.—Such have been the extraordinary
exertions of The Sun Evening Newspaper, during the Oxford
election, that their Expresses have left Oxford at half.past four
in the afternoon of each day, and the entire proceedings have
been printed in the Paper and published in London by half-past
eight the same evening. As it would take at least one hour to
set the intelligence received from Oxford in type, the Express
must have been only three hours in accomplishing a journey of
fifty-four miles—at the rate of eighteen miles an hour. The Sun
has for a long time far surpassed all the other Evening Papers in
procuring early intelligence—sparing no expence in accomplish-
ed its object—but this Oxford example of diligence was never
equalled in the annals of Newspaper publication.
(From the Brighton Gazette of Thursday, March 12.)

We have to notice another extraordinary and very commend-
able instance of exertion on the part of The Sun Newspaper,
which succeeding so yapdly its activity in the case of the Oxfotc.
Election, has produced here a gener4l feeling of approbation.—
The whole of Mr. Peel's speech, repotted to the length of seven
columns, the delivery of which did not conclude till after ten
o'clock on Thursday night, was printed in a Third Edition of
that Paper, and se .t off by Express to Brighton and other places.
It was thus received here before eleven o'clock on Friday morn-
ing, anticipating the Morning Papers by four hours, and conse-
quently spreading thr..ughout the town a general knowledge of
Chedetails of the measure four hours sooner than would other-
wise have been the case. But for a delay in getting horses, the
Express would have reached Brighton at eight o'clock. It is im-
possible to do sufficient justice to such astonishing exertion,
which is absolutely without precedent in the history of News-
papers.
