THE CHARACTER OF THE LOUIS
J. VILE Courier-Journal is so we'll known
from Maine to California, and its reputa-
ton for energy, ability and enterprise Is
so universally conceded by the press ana
the people, that we deem any elaborate
exposition Of its policy and principles al
together unnecessary in this prospectus.
Suffice it to say, that in the future, as it
has in tile past. it will maintain and adj
yocate the principles Of the National Dem
ocratc party, without abating one jot its
independence or hesitating to express Its
honest convictions as occasion requires,
and always having at heart the interests
scheming, selfish and dishonest politicians
During the year 1872 it shall be onr aim ali
to advance the high standard heretofore
maintained by the CourierJournal. First
