fectly independent, and to be the champion Of the

From the Portland Argus, April 22l
The NEW YORK HERALD Sunday issued gum
tuple sheet, containing eighty-three columns OF
advertisements and thirty-seven OF news and
editorials. 1t Is very evident that merchants in
that city have faith in printers ink and the result
shows good Judgment. 1t Is an established fact
that the man who advertises most gets rich the
soonest. N.'
From the Rochester Democrat, April 22.I
Quintupe sheets make their appearance from
the NEW YORK HERALD office pretty nearly every
Sunday now. The last one has 100 columns. OF
these eghty-rhree are advertisements, leaving
thirty-seven columns for news and editorial mat
ter. We must either cut down our exchange list or
drop the HERALD Lie is too short to permit OF
entire justice to these quintupIe documents.
From the stanton (va.) Spectator, April 22l
The NEW YORK HERALD or Sunday, another
quintuple Sheet beat the Baltimore ana Richmond
papers OF yesterday and gives us later news from
all pan Is OF the world which we make OF In this
issue. Our exchange with the daily HERALD Is
worth the balance OF our city exchange kst, and
we could not do without 1t. 1t succeeds and ought
to, for 1t Is first and foremost in the newspaper
world.
From the Macon (Ga) Telegraph, April 10.l
For the first time since its establishment the
HERALD on Sunday last appeared In quintuple
form, and contained one hundred and twenty
columns, Of which seventyeight were devoted to
advertisements and 1orty-tw0 to news and miscel-
laneous MATERIAL fresh, and arranged in the
most attractive shape. This certainly is achieve
ment in American Journalism Of which that paper
record with feelings OF sincere professional gratif-
cation. The HERALD, as a newspaper, leads all its
contemporaries in this country, certainly, and, in
our judgment, cannot be matched even across the
water.

ASTONISHING SUCCESS IN JOURNALISM.
The New York Daily HERALD or Sunday, eth In
stant is now before u.s. displaying proportions
Inn mir IN ofit
dred and twenty column paper got up day after
day. II the labor and expense OF running this
gigantic sheet be enormous, as they GER
tainly are, the income Is still more astonish-
ing. The value or the advertisements In
the copy before us will reach the enormous sum OF
$4,000. Twenty thousand dollars day for adver-
Using alone Is something handsome. II to this we
add the subscription for the paper we shall have an
amount worthy OF the great enterprise. The sub
scription will amount 10 $4,000 every day. 900
every week, so that while the outlay Is great the
income Is much greater.
From the Kokomo Ind) Democratl
The NEW YORK HERALD is not only the news
paper OF America, but OF the world. Even 1.-The
Thundercr," the London Times, cannot exhibit the
energy. enterprise and ingenuity that charac-
terize the HERALD. The appliances OF modern
American Journalism as to news gathering, is
ingenious, daring and wonderful. Is no
longer gigantic undertaking for a news
paper commissioner TO interview crowned
heads, penetrate the heart OF Africa, ascend the
North Pole, and make "big talkr with Captain
Jack. All that fire, water EARTH air, steam, elcc
tricity and brains can be made to do, the modern
reporter can do. The HERALD outstrps its contem-
poraries and takes the belt for the useful and
novel In journalism Not satisfied with the most
exhaustive and careful reports OF the late Atlantic
disaster, HERALD reporter donned a diving suit
and explored the wreck at length.

MAMMOTH PAPER.
few days ago the New YORK HERALD for the
first time since Its establishment appeared In O
quintuple form, containing 10 columns, ofwhich
seventy are devoted to advertisements and
fortytwo to news and general intelligence This
event Is unprecedented IN the history OF Journalism
In this, and, we believe, in any other county. =
was the largest newspaper ever issued. The ldver-
tsements were all fresh and nearly all brief notices
Of a few lines in length, paid for at the rae OF q
dollar line. The receipts from this source were
enormous. The news included intelligence from
all parts OF the world and presented marvellous
detail OF current events. This issue OF the HHALD,
we have no doubt contained more matter than
two or three books OF several hundred pages each,
as the type was all very small. IL was q wonder.
