The London Dailies.

The London correspondent of the Chica-
go Tribune, who has been making research
es among the daily newspapers of that
city, gives some interesting statistics on the
subject OF the Times he says: II am in
formed that its circulation, morning and
evening, is about 10000, and that its net
profits last year were not far from $50, 900
$3.50, 000." The most popular paper in Eng
land, owing to it's powerful advocacy Of the
reform question, is the London Telegraph.
It is.a morning paper only, and its circula-
ton ranges from $4,000 to 100000 daily,
and its profits last year were within frac-
ton of 100000. The Standard, cheap
paper somewhat similar to the last men
toned, circulates, in its morning and even
ing editions, about 81, 900 copies. yielding a
profit last year of not far from $125 900. The
Herald, the old Tory organ, has daily cir
culation of 1000 only, which pays, howev-
er, about $4,000 profit. The Morning Id
oestsser, the victualers' paper, has circula-
ton of 1000, and cleared last year SEQ, 900.
The Morning Post, the aristoratic organ, cir
culates even less than the Herald. and pays
about the same. The DAILY Nous. 90 ia
vorably known here for its opposition to the
rebellion, gets credit in well-informed cir
cles for daily circulation of 5000, and for
a yearly net profit Of $25, 900. The Star,
John Bright's organ, in which he is an
owner and sometimes q contributor, has a
morning and evening edition, and circulates
about so, 900 copies daily, and the stockhol-
ders of the Star properly divided among
their own slaves, on the first of last Janu,
airy, little more than e40, 900. i'ss
