daily newspaper in New England. The editor in

and we are glad OF its prosperity. The return to the
original style of arranging the contents OF the paper
is one of the most agreeable features Of the change

dignied manner, yet leaning in all vital issues with
his party. While we cannot always agree with all of
his political notions heartily bear witness to the
ability character and culture he has displayed In its
MANAGEMENT, and wish him and the proprietors even
more prosperity in the next year than 1t has had in
the past. -
Its news is judiciously and carefully selected and
general culture and literary taste characterzes Its
contents. As good family newspaper 1t has no su-
perior; and while Mr. Lincoln occupies the city ed
itors chair there will be lack Of local news, as
is generally acknowledged in that department he has
no equal in the State.
