AHEAD AGAIN.


AHEAD AGAIN.
The HERALD gave another striking evidence yes
ecr0ay Of ts superiority as newspaper. Thanks to
Ats special news yacht the Herald, It was enabled to
announce yesterday morning twenty -four hours in
advance Of every other New York paper, the safe
arrival OF the DuKe Alexis. One OF its contempo-
faries yesterday. the same which week ago pub
ltshed the ''exclustve news OF the Svetlana's or.
Rival, said:-
4 The Svelana and the Grand Duke Alexis are still
IN Nu0ibuS.
The same paper this morning has the charming
cheek to tell us that
With the suspirataon Of Intense relief the public
DuKe has at last arrived. The Svetlxna anchored
In New York BAY yesterday morning and was forth.
l,WoId.
There can be but .One sentiment entertained as
fegards the HERALD's character as q newspaper,
pnd that Is that still stands foremost In the world
pf newspaperdom. The HERALD is not ftful in its
Enterprise. 1t aims TO be, and invariably is, always
Ahead In matters Of news, foreign or domestic
Hence ITS great popularity and wonderful success
- daily history Of the world.
(From the Utica IN. " Observer, Nov. 2o.]
the Russian Grand Duke, Alexanders son.
Alexis, has arrived He came ike thief IN the
night The weary watchers who awaited his
advent mad all fallen asleep-a excepting the enter
prtsing Individual who runs tho NEW YORK
HSRALD's news yacht. He testines o. follows:--
nat half-past eleven O'Clock on Saturday night q
large steamer came slowly up and anchored or the
Ldghtship. The HERALD yacht ran alongside ana
eoon discovered that the stranger noated the
Russian nag. In reply to the han Of the yacnt,
What vessel IL thus ~ came the welcome reply,
The Russian frigate Svetlana.' Are all well ON
boardp All we'll Ts the Grand Duke Alexis on
6oardp he ib.'n

the great feat or the NEW YORK HERALD IN obtain.
Ing the news OF the Grand Dukes arrival OF Sandy
Hook, which occurred on Saturday night about
midnight, and presenting 1t to the public tho next
morning, when all Its contemporaries came out In
inter ignorance OF the event-even saying that HIS
Imperial Hlghness had not yet come-was charac-
terstic OF that remarkable journal. How tho thing
was done what 1t cost to do 1t does not appear on
the surface beyond the HERALD's frequent illusions
TO MS neet" OF steam news yachts but the feat was
performed and tho HERALD is triumphant Perhaps
the Tribune, Times, World, &C., can now explain
how their great rival outgeneralled them.
From the jersey City Times, Nov. 20]
tho HERALD placed tall feather in its bonnet
yesterday morning In announcing the arrival OF the
Duke. The Times and Wortd had nothing Of It; but
the latter may boast that 1t had the week be-
fore Tho HERALD 10 not easily beaten on news, and
very seldom on anything else OF consequence. Il is
great newspaper, and 10 deny It shows either Q
heavy load OF envy or sheer folly. Those dailies
who do not publish on Sunday were lucky for once.
From the Brooklyn Daily Times, Nov. 20.1
Tho NEW YORK HERALD displayed real enterprise
4J getting ahead OF Gil the papers yesterday In an.
Aouncing the arrival Of the Grand Duke Alexis.
