L % 6 4

In starting the PORTLAND DAILY Press the
Pruprietors were influenced by what they be-
leved to be demand of the loyal public senti-
ment of the State, and the generous reception
which it has met with, and the unexpected meas
ure of success which has uniformly attended IL
thus far, afford the most satisfactory evidence to
the Lroprietors that they did not miscons.rue the
public demand. The Press has been in existence
but one year and half, and though il was COM
menced with no previous canyassing, and with
the field, to superficial observer, fully occupied
by papers having Old associations and honor
able antecedents, yet in its brief history il has
gained a circulation never before attained by any
daily paper in the State, and a hold upon pub
lie confidence and respect most encouraging to
the proprietors, and stimulating to their cher
ished desire TO satisfy the public wants by max
ing such paper as shall be deemed public ne
cessity by the loyal people of Maine.
Though the Press has had a success far ex-
ceedng the most sanguine expectations of its
projectors, and though comparatively few sub
scrlbers have been heard to complain of its ac-
knowledged DEFICIENCIES and few demands for its
improvement have come to the notice of its pro-
prietors, and though 1t may have been all they
could afford TO make il at the past and existing
exOrbitant prices of printing materials and stock
and with its present patronage, yet the proprie
tors have long felt that il is far short of what
leading journal in the commercial and financial
center of the State should be; and that the en-
terprise, the wealth, the public spirit and the
asst increasing population of Portland demand,
and should therefore sustain, such efforts as are
necessary to make paper commensurate with
the growing Importance and commanding posi-
ton of their city.
The Business of this city should demand much
more space for its advertisement than her num-
erous merchants and manufacturers have as vet
claimed FORTS accommodation while the great va
riety and Importance of the news of theday-For-
eigu and Domestic, Civil and Military -imper-
