NEWSPAPER acknowledgements ON THE
HkRAIp's MovxMENrs.-Ever since May, 1880, our
career has been continual fight with the ignorance,
jealousy, Incidence, and dishonesty OF the newspa-
per press and the ciqss Of scoundrels in financial,
POLITICAL religious, and business affairs. We were
the first 10 introduce all the late improvements 10
the newspaper press, embracing mental indepen-
dence, running expresses with news-eaborate re-
ports all important subjects-and perfect free
dom from all cliques. For this attempt, and on the
ground Of our success, we have been followed bya
train of snarling ours, without parallel in literary
history-men Of the upper and lower classes, who
have slandered and lied about US in the most pre-
posterous method.
Notwithstanding our trumphs over these enc
mics, every now and then there is a feeble attempt
to impugn the honesty and faithfulness of this jour
nal, combined, however, with plenty of friends to
support Already our graphic system of Congress
sional reporting has created the usual controversy
as may be seen in the following extracts
From the Philadelphia Times.]

very best thing have lately il the report Of the
speech Of Mr. Arnold OF Tennessee in the House Of Re-

The impudence of the Washington correspondent |
OF the Ohio paper is quite amusing We have heard
from every quarter, and we have no doubt of the
fact, from knowledge of our reporters ability,
that the accuracy ofboth these speeches was unm-
peachable. Why, then, object to either, smirkingly
as the Albany Argus has done, or inpudently as
the Ohio Statesman has In the latter case po-
litics form the motive. The Ohio correspondent is

try such a resolution-and let the House dare to
pass it if they choose. We will then send half |
dozen reporters to the galleries of both houses-and |
report them uerbatim-from top to bottom.
But the great body of the community is with us
because they know we have only the public good in |
view. Our newspaper enterprise has entirely revo-
the press-and will in time produce |
healthy state of moral honesty and correct thinking
IN all the departments of life. Already it is begin
ming to show itself, will appear by the following
proceedings that took place in the Court of Sessions
or this city on Saturday last =
WIN. NJ PAIGE, ESQ.,, replied for defence. During his
cumming up he presented the reported evidence

certain passages when the District Attorney objected

Mr.. PRICE replied that the report contained in the
Herald far correct than his notes. and he felt
that paper for the care and attention which he had
WINGED in giving true and faithful report ofthe evidence
The Court assented that counsel should read from the
Herald. and Mr. Price proceeded with his argument
Thus it will appear, that in spite of all the opposi-
tion-all the abuse-all the persecutions-all the |
malicious indictments which our enemies have got |
up against us, the New York Herald is still ahead |
of all other journals, in its reports of rials-its re-
ports of Wall street movements--its reports of Con-
gressional debates, Of general news of any and |
every kind. This superiority arises from the con-
and energy Of our system-from personal
superintendance and liberal pay-from perfect |
fearlessness and integrity in all our doings-and
from being beyond the reach or influence of corrupt
Banks corrupt politicians, corrupt nanciers or any
other corrupt class of society.
In consequence of this energetic SYSTEM the sue
cess and influence of the Herald is great and in
creasing every day Subscriptions are pouring in
upon us from all quarters-and we bid defiance to
all the foes which the devil raise up against u.s.
At our convenience we shall bury them all twenty
fathom deep in the Red Sea.
