Cincinnati daily press. [volume] (Cincinnati [Ohio]) 1860-1862, 1860-03-29
The Cincinnati Pres. Every Day In the
rH. IH Weak.

From this. time we shall publish the PREs
every day, Sundays not excepted. We hav,
decided on this course from sincere convic
tion that Sunday is the day of all others wher
mental Occupation and moral influences art
needed, and best appreciated BY the people
and Il seems to US unwiss 20 deprive them o
these on the very day when rest from physi
cal labor creates the greatest necessity fol
[ them. Our paper will not interfere with any
of the moral influences of that day, but will
we hope, cooperate with them, and against
the immoral tendencies to which very many
of the people are most exposed on Sunday
To quiet any conscientious scruples that
might be aroused by the impression that in
creased labor on Sunday is involved in
the publication Of Sunday paper, we
will say what Is well known to all newspa-
per men, that II is the publication Of a
paper on Monday that causes the labor
on Sunday, and which involves all the con-
scientous scruples.' The Sunday Press will
be made up on Saturday evening, and put to
press Immediately after the receipt of the
last telegraph dispatches, which arrive about
midnight. The Mondays paper is the only
one that is subject 70 the objection of violat-
ing Sunday. Those who regard paper as
not work that will justify its being done
on Sunday, will find it incumbent on them to
pretermit the paper of Monday morning. But
under the Christian system which regards Sun
day as day for moral and religious instruc-
tion and improvement, rather than day to
be sanctifed by physical and mental inert
ness, it seems to us that public journals should
be recognized as one Of the means of popu-
lar elevation, which, like preaching and the
various kinds-of Sunday teaching will JUS
tify the necessary labor on that day. If they
are not entitled to this, it is because of the
quality Of the journal ITSELF and it will be
our hope to make the PRESS such that it will
be classed by all good men among the good
influences upon society. This, however, we
only allude to generally; the question is but
little involved in the mere publication Of a
paper on Sunday moEning, which goes to
press at midnight of Saturday.
The Press will be delivered to subscribers,
by carrier, at the previous rate-one cent, or
seven cents week for seven papers. Pres
ent subscribers who wish to receive the Sun
day PRESS, at the addition, will notify the car
rier, or leave notice at our Counting-room.
To new subscribers by mail, the price for
seven papers in week will be So so a year.
News-boys will be supplied with the Sunday
Press at the usual rate. -...
Business men will readily see the advan-
tages which the Sunday Press offers as an
advertising medium. We shall circulate next
Sunday an edition as large as that of any of
the daily papers of the city, and on day
when most of the others do not publish, Civ
ing to advertisers in the Sunday PREss almost
clear field. We will receive advertisements
specially for the Sunday Pass.
Monthly and yearly advertisers who wish
their advertisements in the Sunday paper at
spropOrtionate rate, will notify us accord
ingly.
