In making this announcement we do not In
tend to enter into an extended detail statement .
OF all the improvements We shall make, but, in
a general way, to indicate what we propose

our utmost endeavors 10 perform faithfully all !
that we promise.
The facilities Afforded us to produce tho
rough national newspaper arc greater than are
enjoyed by the publishers of any other journal
in the country, for the following reasons;
lst, The REPUBLICAN is published at Wash.
ington City, tic scat OF the National Govern.

ally cit here during each year, and we employ

to furnish the daily records Of those high tri'
bunals.

all the operations of the Army and Navy ol
the United States, by virtue Of the relations eK
isting between the Government and the Ma.
TIoNAL REPUBLICAN, referred to above, nothing
that Is proper to publish, of Military and Naval
operations, can or shall escape our notice.

to the people Of every community, be IL i-. e
or small, especially TO those who can read and

!. which they are subject during the year.
{ Sth. The great interests represented by the
several bureaus of the Interior Department

PUBLICAN in some manner.
18th. The official, civil, and uncivil repre-.
! sentatives of every foreign nation on the earth,
! are found here, and cannot act or move unher.
aided by our active attaches.
Above, In q general form, we have given
ticelvs reasons why the NATIONAL REPUBLICAN,
published in the City OF Washington, possesses
greater facilities for obtaining all the import
ant news of the day, OF every description, than
D any other Journal in the United States. The
highest evidence of this, which relieves Us from
e the charge Of egotism, is the fact witnessed all
H over the nation daily (by those who care 10 OBJ
ID serve it) that the leading, widest circulated,
ID and most influential journals in the United
he States gather the most important Departmental
y, news, especially of our military and naval
a. operations, official and otherwise, from the
to columns OF the NATIONAL REPUBLICAN. This
to is true in face of the well known fact that
ne many of the proprietors of those journals pay
\, enormous sums of money yearly to "Asso.
ciated Press" and Especial Correspondents" :"
liz SO called, to furnish them with the current
news of the day. We regret 10 say, in this
connection, that those correspondents do not
u. always inform their employers that they are
re not the authors of many of the most important
or dispatches they send over the wires at an ex-
Of fs ss,s- nprJh hyyp rnJt ti,r,
y, to the NATIONAL REPUBLICAN, as they in jus.
ii tice should do. We especially think they
should credit us when they encroach 30 far as
to telegraph our editorials, bodily, as being
their oi0n compositions. However, we beg par.
- don for this complaining digresslon, and will
not deny that we observe, in all this unfair.
2 ness, q compliment TO our industry on the part
OF these plagiarists.
Politically the REPUBLICAN will support as
IN earnestly as possible the civil and military
n policy of the present Administration, while
that policy is for FREEDOM In It's broadest and
NJ highest sense, and against Sldyery. WHEN n,
re- re- present, or any other administration, piIrSueS

on The domestic and personal news of the day
ne will always receive prompt and careful Gtten

~. 1t Is but proper and Just TO our readers 10 So,
oi that the Publishers, Editors, and entire corps
-, OF Reporters engaged upon the NATIONAL RR
pG' PUBLICAN are thorough, practical newspaper
es. men in the broadest sonse of tho term. Thi
principal Editor, and his chief Assistant, hay,

M we have right TO blow 1t, for we have earre,
,ed that right; besides, you are entitled to know
