For. 1867.
With the opening of the new year We presented
to the readers of the
DAILY PRESS,
A Paper Enlarged to tho size ofihe largest
IL. New ENGLAND Dailics.

bA1L 4 fhELSS,
A Paper Enlarged to the size ofthe largest
4F New England Dailies.
The enlargement of daily edition is equivalent
to the addition of between three and four columns to
its size This additional space will be devoted to de-
tails of important events, which have heretofore
been obliged to give in brief and TO selections from
current literature, grave or gay, such as we have
lately been obliged to omit altogether
What the character of the paper thus enlarged will
be, its past history will show The PRESS was es-
tablished primarily TO represent the Republican par
ty of Maine. 1t was impossible for the controlling
party of the State to remain voceess in this CITY,
The PRESS will continue to defend the principles of
the Liberal party of America. Tho war has closed
one great cycle in our national history-the cycle
during which arstocracy at the South and democra-
cy at the North grew up side by side, period of
Jealousy and conflict, resulting in an appeal arms
and the victorious supremacy of the democratic prin
cple. We have entered state of transition, which
seems likely to prove longer than most of us anci
pated. The PREss will insist upon settlement
which will secure the fruits of our victory. Nothing
is settled till it is settled right We must have de-
mocracy at essouth as well as at the Nort-equal
rights for all secured by equal laws freedom of
speech, freedom Of the press impartial suffrage. OF
the profound convictions of the Republican party OF
Maine, the PRESS will remain faithful exponent.
The present year will probably witness the extern
sion of the telegraph round the world. The compile
ton of that great enterprise will compel change,
which has already begun, in the management OF
newspapers. The leading features of the worlds
history will be registered from day day by the tel
egaph. The expense Of special dispatches from all
parts of the world will prove too great for single
newspapers, and correspondence will regain some
thing its old importance. Newspaper associations
or news agents will assume the task of furnishing
the daily dispatches, while correspondents will fur
nish Details explanations and illustrations, by mail
Tie Atlantic telegraph has already destroyed the
system by which foreign news has for years been
furnished by steamer, and already the Tribune has
its special correspondents established in almost
every capital in Europe. We cannot rival the feats

same considerations. In view Of the intimate rela-
tons existing between Maine and the British Pro-

The Railroad Bills.

The General Assembly yesterday made
another step In advance upon the sub
1ject of the great railroad schemes which
/ have been 50 long under consideration in
the-tvo Houses JFhe House ofDelegates
passed tie bill Known as the Cumberland
Gap Railroad oscillation bill, which con-
soIiaatn We Norfolk and Petersburg, the
Sodtnsl1e. and the Virginia and Tonnes
see railroads, for the purpose of completing
I the Cumberland Gap road and through its
completion tosestabhsh a line of transpor-
tation from the Atlantic to the Mississippi
and Ohio rivers. About the time this bill
passed in the House the Senate .passed, BY
nearly unanimous vote, the .tCovington
and Ohio Railroad biIr,," as it is called !;
I. e. the billto complete the "Covington
and Ohio railroad by consoli dasing. the

/ The Cumberland Gap Railroad bill was
promptly sent to the Senate after its pas
sage by the House. In that body it was
soon taken up, and an amendment was put
upon it which its friends considered as
highly detrimental to it, and seriously en-
dangering the success of the scheme should
it pass thus amended This amendment
requires the assent of the private stock
holders Of all four of thesrailroads propos-
ed to be consolidated before the consolida-
ton of their interests shall take place It
is the amendment which was twice offevees
in the House, once rejected, then adopted
and afterwards reconsidered and rejected
This action of the Senate somewhat de-
pressed the spirits of the friends Of the bill,
and opened before them renewal of the
struggle which they have maintained
with such energy and perseverance for
the greater part the session; unfortunate
! ly, however, this reverse comes upon them
as the session is just about to close This
amendment, unless it be reconsidered
and rejected, sends the bill back to the
House, where it will be fought over again,
and the prospect for its passage during the
regular session IS therefore very doubtful.
When the Senate adjourned yesterday
there was an amendment pending, and
others said to be in reserve Richmond

nTr. Casyert,s Summons to Washington.


It has been stated that Mr.. CALVERT,
the State Treasure Of Virginia, had been
summoned to Washington by order of
some congressional committee, and there
has been good d. al Of speculation as to
the object of the summons. We now learn
that he was summoned before the Judici-
ary Committee of the House Of Represen-
tatives to testify touching the question
whether Governor SWAMI had, during the
war, drawn any interest upon the bonds OF
Virginia held by him; in doing which he
had to take an oath that he would do no.
thing to the injury of the Southern Con-
federaey. Such an oath, it will be remem-
bered, was required of those from abroad
who drew interest after certain time.
Mr.. CALVERT was unable to answer the
question In Washington, and had to return
to Richmond to ascertain the facts in the
matter. Upon examining the books here
he finds that Governor SWAMI had drawn
no interest since 1860. So the inquisi-
tive judiciary Committee, now engaged
upon the ways and means to get at the
Governor and Maryland, took nothing by
that motion. Richmond Dispatch. q
