THE HERALD AND IT'S LIGHTNING EXPRESS

From the Staunton (Va.) Spectator, July 1871
The NEW YORK HERALD has achieved another
journalistic triumph BY running through light
ming express TO Baltimore and Washington it sup
plies those two cities, we'll as Philadelphia, with
that paper four hours earlier than formerly. The
newsdeaers and people In baltimore were so
prsed by this feat that they at first refused to be-
lieve 1t, and insisted that the paper had been
dated. But it was nevertheless true. The HERALD
had through in SIX hours, and that, too, with
out the intervention OF Professor Wise and his bal
loon, or the tubular air tunnel. The HERALD cer-
tainy does deserve credit Tor the enterprise It's
management exhibits on all occasions, and also for
Its iberality towards its brethren OF the press
we learn that 1t did not strike single exchange
from Its list under the postal law. and there is
hardly q country paper in the land, oil any note,
that 1t does not exchange with. sending even its
daily to the most unpretentious weekiics.

THE RACING.

heavy rain yesterday morning at Monmouth

The weather, however, was delightful and the rae

first being the West End Hotel Stakes-a renewal

mouth oaks Stakes to carry five pounds exta the
