the whole Of the eruption to appear ON

We feel tho deepest commiseration fol

tircly on tho manufacture aud publication
OF three two.column articles in every Issue
1t appears 10 be matter of small consc.
qucnce what they write ubout-quantity
not quality, being tho highest aim Of many.
Somc coniino themselves exclusively to
