whose particular object and anxiety 1t is TO this
Interpretation 10 the best advantage.
3. Although there are few Wing papers in the
country, they bear principally local character,
and, relying for their support more on local patron
age than on their subscription lists, they do gene
rally stand fall with the defeat Of the
Wing party in their particular section
T. The Germans, however, being an intelligent
and reading people, are accessible TO sound argu-
ment, and paper conducted with uprghtness, and
speaking the plain truth, will be able, by degrees,
