TEE SACRAMENTO UNIoN.-TAct, energy
and ability have made the Sacramento
Onion the newspaper Of the Pacific coast,
and given it an immense circulation and
great influence. 1t finds its way to the
rsmOtest parts Of our State, and every
where finds admirers and suppOrtcrsA
It is more sought after than any other
paper in the State. It contains daily
from fourteen to sixteen columns Of read
ing mattCr-thc latest, most important,
interesting and reliable news. We doubt
II another paper in tho State can afford to
give so much reading matter. On the
arrival Of the last steamer, besides It's
regular issue, it issued supplement of
fourteen columns Of closely printed mat
ter, embracing q full account Of the loss
Of the steamer George LG~, and much
other important intelligence. Tho extra
labor II employs necessarily involves a
heavy expenditure, but its circulation is
60 extensive and its patronage SO great,
that the proprietors can well afford it,
Although we differ politically from the
Union, we must rank it as first among
che newspapers Of the State. The State
Journal is closely pressing upon it, but
the Union yet "lcadS the column" of Cal
ifornia newspapers.
