We cordially approve the suggestion Of Col.

those who have taken stock in the proposed
new Bank while we commend the libcraity
and public spirit which prompt him TO set
81 fine an example, in increasing his snbscrip.

able. The means of supplying j, with the
required amount Of capital are abundant
the conditions Of the charter are judcious and
liberal. and the increased faciliies it would az
ford our citizens, in all branches of business,
are greatly needed and when enjoyed will
promote, in no small degree, the prosperity oil

NEVADA JOURNAL

Tb proprietors of the JOURNAL
offertheir siucere thanks to the pub
lie oiNevada and vicinity for the en-.
courgement and support which has
beer SO literally offered to their enter
prie. The Nevada Journal has now
bee in being more than half a year.
ant at no period of its existence have
itsprospects been better than at pres.
en-. The project of creating and
maintaining a newspaper so far up in
tle mountains, where few years ago,
n. civilized being had panetrated, and
NJ voice save that Of the savage beast.
o. as savage Indian, was heard, is one
hset with many difficulties, and one
which cannot be consummated with
cut the hearty concurrence OF the pub
ic. The value of a good newspaper
beyond estimate. 1t is the medium
Iof knowledge of every description, ir''
Iradiating the light of truth, science
and liberty through the sphere OF It's
action. Il free and intelligent press ia
one Of the surest means for the inn
provement and elevation of mankind.
Where the press has been trampled
on, true liberty and true virtue have
always been PROSTATE in the dust. 1t
is far better, however, that no press
should make itself heard, than that it
become corrupt and venal, ard losing
its independence, become the tool Of
party or adventurers. Then it shines
but to mislead, and becomes the great
est curse in the community in which
it is published.
I he proprietors Of the Jou,nal
think they have not mis>estimated the
temper or the intelligence of the Ne
vada public. They believe press
that will fearlessly and boldly speak
the truth is the one desired, and in
pursuing such course, they have not
lacked substantial proof on the point
1t is our aim to make the Journal
an acceptable business, news, and fam
lily sheet, with good matter, original
and selected, intoxicating q correct
moral tone, and independent in Ill
matters of public interest and contro-
yersy.
The terms for the Semi Week{g
Journal will be found elsewhere.

STEAM EDITION
OF THE
N eVada Journal,

Published for the regular Mail
Steamers for the States, once in two
weeks, designed for circulation in the
Atlantic States and Europe. The
success that has attended the STEAMER
JOURNAL, has induced the proprietors
to make arrangement for its regular
publication. Authentic and full intel
ligenee from the mining sections of
California is always most acceptable
in the States, and published as is the
JOURNAL in the midst of the most
populous and important mining coun-
ty in the State, the operations in the
placers. cayote mines, and quartz
leads Of which are most extensive and
profitable, it is looked to "at Home"
as compendium of reliable and def
mite information upon the progress and
results in mining of all descriptions,
and abounding in interest to those who
wish to invest capital in mining, or
simply watch the progress of our in,
fant State. The JOURNAL for the
States is made up Of carefully collect
ed intelligence from this region, gen.
orally from our own observations, and
also Of matters of interest from every
part OF the State. Our aim is to make
it at once the true exponent of mining
news; we shall also give attention to
the condition Of agriculture, the mar
kets, trade, travel, and great public
undertakings. The Steamer jour
NAL is a neatly printed sheet, contain
ing in each number from fifteen TO
twenty columns of reading matter.
We send regularly large and in,
creasing list of the Journal to the
States, and persons who wish to avoid
the high rates of postage on transient
papers sent out of the State, can do SO
by having the names of their friends
to whom they wish the paper sent,
entered on our books as regular sub
scribers. The quarterly postage on q
sheet of the size of the JOURNAL, is
fifteen cents.
