the coast OF Ireland 10 that of British America,
and Une inevitable result OF this must be an un-

among the nations OF Christendom, and con.

the Newspaper Press. Il seems hardly possible
that thousands should not henceforth regularly
read their own journals, who have hitherto been
content with an occasional glance at those taken
by the ir neighbors; while many who have hitherto
