al]v as announced. Ii is a handsome
twentv-eight column sheet, with full tele-
graphic dispatches from all parts of the
world, summary OF local and Maine
news, special correspondence from prom
inent points, editorials, &c. We notice
the pungent pen of Faust among the
contributors. The amount of advertising
for 4 new paper surprises us, and is con-
elusive as to the determination of the
Bangor business men that The Daily Com
mercal shall live and prosper

morcial will be devoted, as announced in
the leader. We extract the following, the

Rusiness was another idea made prominent
| in our prospectus. To every citizen of Maine
who has pride in his State, the revelations OF

4 census revealed the tact that, not only had the
State at large lost population, but nearly three

is happiness. No where on the broad earth are
homes happier, social enjoyment greater, and
life more delightful, than here among the hills
and valleys and by the rivers and bays OF
Maine. Can men prosper. can men acquire the
means of enjoying life here: 1t viii be one
,f To hnC
the world that Eastern and Middle Maine has
I resources unbounded and opens field for en-
terprise and for the investment OF capital hardly
surpassed in any other section of the Union.
