The Nep York Herald in Europe State of EHg-
land Corsidered-7he Influence of the Herald
Mr.. Bancroft The French Minister, &c.
Nothing in that way could give to genuine Eng
hsh patriots higher satisfaction than the great
prosperity of the Herald. Its patronage now de-
mands that additional machinery which has been
put into requlshon, to send its opinions and Its
reproofs, as well praise, to the ends OF the earth
The mighty magic Of steam, IN its happiest COM
blnation, was wanting to send new power int
the remotest regions of the civilized world. You
state the fact that your printing presses have been
brought to unrivalled perfection by MIR. Hoe; and
that your circulation is such as to tax even his
genius to the utmost The Herald now clrculaes
over 10000 papers per day, and nearly half many
as are issued in all England. This is subject for
congratulation even Of Boosting, amongst Amerl-
cans abroad, not less than at home, They are
very glad to see that the Herald appre cates its
position, and that this winter II will come forward
TO Congress with proposition to furnish prompt
and accurate reports OF the debates both houses
in any quantity In that feature alone has the
press of America been behind the English, while
In all other respectsi Is so UNNECESSARILY superior
Indeed OF politics, the staple tor newspapers, the
British journals not only know nothing, but it is
clear that wlthouta total change OF the government
itself, and also a radical departure from the pre-
sent monopoly OF the press by the rIch,* they can
never Learn anything. The government is total
imposition OF the most elaborate and hypocrtlcal
character, by which all iceland is held by force as
a conquered country, against The Will OF the vast
majority; and by which all England Is impudently
appropriated to the sole behoof OF about 5000
gentlemen, whose ancestors are said to have
come over with the Conqueror, and to have
received separate portions IN fee OF the plum

House Of Commons, as to include themselves in that

The laws we're made to lay tax on this land, and
