Next Double sheet.


On Monday morning next, we shall issue our heAe
double sheet. On that day we shall repuoiish al
the necessary information, with the map of the CITY,
reou;red 10 90 into the charter election the sue
ceedins day. Tuesday, which is election day Ia
the interval, up to that time, some changes may lie
made in the Inspectors, polls and other matters
All these changes will be embraced in our Monday
double sheet, together with the news OF tue TWO
previous days
The publication of these doublo sheeted heraias
is forced upon by the great increase Oh ause'-
Using patronage, which of necessity entrehches
upon our reading columns. The revolution III inc
newspaper press has been so RAPID during the ias'
year and the particular growth OF the Herald SO
treat and so quick, that we shall be compelled, IN
n short time, most probably, to publish as the
50 London Times now does, a double sheet each
dan. AT this moment the aggregate circulation of
the New York Herald, in New York, throughout
the Union, in North and South America, and over
ALI Western Europe, Is greater than that OF amy
paper in the known rorid; and if we were to esti-
mate our circulation by the number different per-
sons who peruse the Herald it might be stated to be
one hundred h7us md per day. For il is well known
that this nal,-unlike the cheap penny papers,
or the large winding sheets, large quantities OF which
trash are merely purchased to tie up tea and sugar
is always read by many persons in succession, and
preserved for future reference, with equal care
and circums pection. In many cities and towns we
know that the Herald passes from hand to hand tli
il is nearly worn out--and then acquisitions arc
made upon us to furnish the deficient numbers to
make up files for binding and preservation
The rise and progress Of the Herald is one OF the
phenomena Of the present reading age. Other pa
pers may attain Temporary circulation and patronage
by Accidentally the want Of riyalry-by imere PR
ority of existence. The growth OF the Herald has
been in the teeth Of all kinds of opposition, insult
combination, and frauds. Finance, fanaticsm, poll
ties trade fashion, vice and ieentiousness have all
combined to cry it down. and TO arrest its progress
There cries have only served to give it wider cir
culation- more commanding position, and more
permanent, moral and intellectual influence in every
relation of life. Why have we been so successful?
Because zoe hare struck of the eternal key notes
of the human heart-and nothing that ignorance or
FOLLY can call to its aid arrest progress,
curtail our growing influence. Other trashy prints
may enlarge their dimensions, and let out a hem in
their petticoats, but the prosperity of the Herald
does not depend its size or its dimensions 1t Is
an original intellectual power-an element among
the elements of civilization, and the enlargement Of
its sheet only indicates the enlargement OF some oil
those bright ripping circles of civilization and re-
fncment, which have been brought about by its in
tellectual and moral power.
So rapid is the intellectual growth OF this metro
polls and this country, that shall soon be forced
10 issue double sheet eve,y day, in order to KEEP
pace with the demands upon our columns by cores
pondents, for news, and advertisers. In 1877 the
s'London Times" which now publishes double
sheet daily was only small single sheet, about the
size of the present Herald, but not containing over
two-thirds of the quantity Of reading matter.
L .t.zt fha
world, and as a legitimate consequence, that daily
newspaper which is conducted with proper energy
with the requisite intellectual and moral power will
in time become the greatest paper in the world
That paper we mean to make the New York Herald
Forget not that next Monday the next double sheet
will be issued-price two cents. Send in your adj
vertisements in time. We shall issue about $1,000
copies.
