The HERALD has certainly done its duty with
respect to the ordinary questions Of federal policy
since It's establishment. Il has gone against al
manner Of imposition upon the people, and held the
balance even between the labor and capital Of the
country Earlier, and later also, in the Geld Of duly
than any other metropolitan Journal II has upheld,
throughout the crisis Of the last twelve months, the
sacred compromises of the constitution. The good
Of the has not failed to appreciate the
rifk CT withstapdng this tempest Of excitement
and every hour in the shape Of additions to our List
Of patrons, we have assurance that the HERALD and
tie people are identified. Next to the appreciation
of the conscience, the support Of public opinion
we mean tina; spontaneous public opinion which

facture.
Il becomes tie du.y Il the HERALD to announce
Abe approach Of an external danger Of the frs.

the governments Of Eoglan1 and France, fox the

poses, made by England since the late French
revolution, to maintain her oWn position in tie
world, and 10 keep down France, and keep back
the movement in Europe. Jealousy Of Tue amlEing
supelioriiy Of the United States, 90 all other
