Besides articles from regular Contributors, the Pub
Usher will BE- prepared TO give re-pubcations OF the
choicest ales, &c, from the popular foreign maya
zines as they arrive monthly. We are determined
to render thc'' Nister the most useful paper IN the
country To.his end we will avoid the re-pubica-
ton of everything like the poisonous trash some of
the mammot sheets forced TO print, merely to fill
up in time. Such matter is untitled for the family
circle and therefore, has business in family paper.
Our aim is b do good not harm
In order to render the Nsiter" appropriate for
natives of baltimore, and others desiring to take a
paper continuing the city news, shali constantly
keep an eye to about town" and shall do what
the daily Prints cannot accomplish, viz give full
record of al hymenal and obituary news.
