PRESS OPINIONS OF THE HERALD'S
ENTERPRISE.

From the Norwich Comm Advertiser, May 81
The New YORK HERALD has engaged four cor
respondents to write from the Vienna Exhibition
two in English and two In German. The HERALD
published yesterday seven pages devoted to the
opening Of the Exhibition, several columns OF
which were in German.
From the Washington National Republican, May 81
The New YORK HERALD yesterday fairly out
stripped itself in the magnificent account which
IT gave by telegraph OF the opening OF the Vienna
Exposition on the 1st instant. IL printed four
descriptions OF the great event-tw0 in English and
two In German. One of the English descriptions
is written by Mr.. John Russell Young and the other
by Mr.. Edmund Yates, the English novelist. The
German accounts are written by Louise Muhlbach
and Berthold Auerbach, the latter OF whom Is the
greatest German fiction writer OF the day.
Nothing like this feat has ever before been accom-
plished in journalism in any country. To bring
four writer's OF the rank and briniancy Of the
above-named together and then telegraph their
productions 5000 miles, could only have been done
by the HERALD.
from the Wilmington DELI Commercial. May 81
The NEW YORK HERALDs enterprise Is ex-
hibited in securing Berthold Auerbach and Louise
Muhlbach, the German n0velists 1.-THE former one
of the finest writer's of fiction in any language),
to assist Edmund Yates and John Russell Young in
describing, by mail and telegraph the Vienna Ex-
position. There is real enterprise in this, and
while we are not SO sure about Mr.. Yates and the
historical ~ Muhlbach there will be nothing OF
pinchbeck about Auerbach or Young. The latter Is
q splendid correspondent and the HERALD does
wisely in securing him. The two German writer's,
IL must also be noted, send their kilograms and
letters in their own language and they are so
printed in the HERALD on the first day, an English
translation being given the day following.
From the Hartford Post, May 81
We spoke in the Euenfng Post Of yesterday OF the
enterprise OF the New York HERALD in securing
four eminent writer's to represent 1t at the worlds
fair in Vienna. In Fridays edition Of that paper
appeared the first instalment OF letters from the
corps, telegraphed by cable, and occupying, with a
diagram Of the ground and buildings and an inter-
estng historical sketch Of previous fairs from six
to seven pages OF the HERALD. The contributions
OF the German writer's are printed In their native
tongue, and the HERALD, true to its cosmopolitan
character, accompanies them with an editorial in
the same language. 1t Is an achievement of which
every American and particularly the journalists Of
the country, have reason to feel proud, and the
editor is fully justified in SAYING
ave oner the HERALD to-day as O contribution to
the great Exposition. Tor IL, indeed, affords strik
ing an Illustration of the progress Of the world
can be given by any exhibitor"
On another page we have reproduced the letter
Of Mr.. John Russell Young which will be found
worth reading.
From the Lynchburg (va.) Republican, May 81
However much the NEW YORK HERALD may be
slightingly referred to as sensational" paper it
certainly exhibits journalistic enterprise than
any newspaper published In the English language.
Its latest achievement is its arrangements for
.doing upn We Vienna Exposition.
From the Hartford Times May 81
The New York papers are trying hard to Guido
each other In their accounts of the Vienna Exposi.
ton. The HERALD has made the most snowy start.

Auerbach and Louise Muhbach whose dispatches
that paper prints in the German language.
