Mr.. Editor: In some brlet remarks lately,
Won seemed to think the present size OF the
Gazette, made to its disadvantage, and this
YOU hoped to overcome, in time, by the KIND
assistance and support Of the public, TOR whom
you furnish your daily publication. Now, per
nit ne to say, that [ think, with all sensible
people, the size Of the paper, Just at this pc
Rod, is so farfrom being disadvantage, ana'So-
Lutte recommendation You give us the pith
and marrow Of the current news. and that IS
all the newspaper reading that IS needed
Did any one ever take the trouble to ask him
self, after spending two or three hours over the
New York, Philade1 phia and Baltimore papers,
what he has been reading? Nothing more than
{. mere repetition Of doubtful stories, garfield
statements, exaggerated reports and ecoshy
comments. This is the mental food cooked
up. and spread, before the public-this and
nothing else! He who passes his time IN such
reading throws it away say, then: that a
large sheet Of paper is not wanted at this time,
in which to print more than you give US in the
