from the Portland Advertiser. Jan. ?.

The Daily Press appeared yesterday morning in an
daily paper in New England. In the arrangement
OF reading matter has returned to the original style
which we think quite an improvement in its appear
ance. 4
Its news Is judciously and carefully selected and
general culture and literary taste characterzes its
contents. AS good family newspaper it has no su-
perior; and while Mr.. Lincoln occupies the city ed
tor's chair there will be lack of local news as it
is generally acknowledged in that department he has
NO equal in the State.
The enlargement argues a prosperous business, at
least for cur contemporary, and hope it will never
be found necessary to curta the dimensions of this
enterprising and respectable sheet.
