PAPERS RECENTLY ENLARGED.-The New York

PAPERs RECENTLY ENLARGED-The New York
Tribune comes out in an enlarged form. with
wide columns, and otherwise much improved
in appearance. Mr.. Greeley, remarks upon the
occasion, that:
The New Daily Tribune having completed
the twelfth year of its existence, signalizes its
entrance into its teens to-day by an enlarge
ment Of its borders which will add fully one
third to its area, and require us henceforth to
pay more for the white paper OH which it is
printed than all we receive from our subscri-
bers. And ample as our income has BEEN
Though less ample than it has been currently
reported.) our expenditures for the next year
must be larger than our annual income has
ever yet been. We have taken this important
step not without reluctance, but upon the ma
turest deliberation. There are thirteen of us
concerned in The Tribune establishment as
propretors, with one hundred and seventy
more directly employed on the paper--all to
be subslsted out of its current income-and
this enlargement adds some $4,000 per an
mum to our expenses without necessarily in
creasing our receipts. Yet we encounter so
many complaints of "small type" too fine
print 8 bad for the eyes," DC, that we have
resolved to risk our all on the enterprise of
making paper which will satisfy many thou
sands who have hitherto stood alOof. and so en-

Our old favorte, the Cleveland Herald. has
also come out with a new clear face and in an
enlarged form. We are pleased to chronicle
these evidences Of prosperity on the part of
these two leading journals.
VISIT TO THE PREsIDENT.-Agreeab to pre-
vous arrangements. about forty mail contract
Ors, now on a visit to this city from various
States of the Union, assembled to-day at the
POst-Offce Department, whence, accompanied
by the three assistants Postmaster General and
other officers, (including Col. Davies the newly
appointed Postmaster at Baltimorc.) the BODY
proceeded to the Executive mansion. The
guests being invited into the east room Presi-
dent Pierce and the Postmaster General left
the cabinet council and soon joined the party
Mr.. Campbell, in very handsome and familiar
manner, introduced to the President each Off
Ger OF his department and contractor by name
and the Chief Magistrate extended to each and
all a hearty, republican welcome After few
moments spent in lively, agreeable converse
ton. the company retired, apparently highly
gratiGed with the brief but very pleasant inter
vIew.-C0rreSpondence Of TIE Baltimore San,
.4prH 9Th.
That is not saying, however, Mr. Campbell,
that oar mail contracts are about being salts
factorily arranged. We will wager a small
item that more money was expended for EEK
tras' during this interview OF the forty mail
contractors with the President than would
pay the steamboats, for transporting our mails
a whole season.
