THE NEW YORK HERALD.

The New York Herald, that marvel of
newspaper enterprise and success, gives some
interesting facts concerning its finances, in
reply to an attack of the Albany Free Soil
Atlas, which, the Herald describes as weak,
s'ckly paper, having precarious existence,
and which, in its lean and shrivelled state,
seems to be eaten up with envy of the Her
aid fat ribs and rubicund countenance. In
tbs Herald's article, it is stated that the ag-
greg&te receipts of the Herald estab ablishmeIt
are about eleven thousand dollars per week,
being sometimes more and sometimes less
according to the season and the condition of
business. Its whole annual cost of white pa
per amounts to over $3.50, 600 1t has paid
its paper manufacturers in New York, in the
course of twenty years, millions of dollars.
The Herald begs its amiable conttmpora-
ry of the Albany Atlas, which, it says, has
bankrupted several unfortunate politicians,
and viii soon die, to take these interesting
facts and make the most of them. The Atlas
last onset on US, - quoth. the Herald, "is
merely the miserable dying gurgIe of bank
rupt newspaper ruf1ian"

u Earl Grey gave notice in the House
of Lords, on the 10th inst, of a motion that
an address be presented to her Majesty, in
forming her that the House of Lords deeply
deplores the failure of the attempt to put an
end, by the negotiations at Vienna, to the
caIamities of the war in which England is
now engaged; and to express its opinion that
the proposals of Russia were such as to af-
ford a fair prospect of concluding peace by
which all the original objects of the war
might have been gained, and by which her
Majesty and her allies might have obtained
all the advantages which can reasonably be
demanded from Russia. This may well be
characterised as an extraordinary motion.
But whether it prevail or not, there are un
doubtedly multitudes in Great Britain who
secretly wish it success.
