TIE HERALD AND ITS ENTERPRISE.
From the Lynn Mass, Reporter.l

prietor OF this journal Is truly wonderful News
from every part Of the globe is presented daily to
its eglons OF readers with promptness which
seems almost impossible. The most trining occur
renee is not overlooked, and the details OF the most
important events that take place in every nation
are given with so mucn exactness that one may
sit at home ana become perfectly conversant with
all that transpires IN the outside world. In Its
business department equally progressive. It has
recently published several enormous quintupe
Sheets one OF which contained 40 columns,
eighty-three being devoted to advertisements,
leaving thirty-ssven for news and editorials In
order to place before its readers daily accounts OF
what Is occurring at the Vienna Exposition the
prOprietors have engaged the services OF lOur
Observation-Disclosures Yates, the English nov
ellst; j. Russell Young, the well-known American
journalist; Mr.. Auerbach and Mrs. MulDach, the
two celebrated German writer's. The full par
ticuiars OF the opening OF the Exhibition
were given by those celebrities the next day
alter they took place, filling several columns
OF the HERALD, TWO of which were printed in the
German language. The immense amount of labor
aud expense involved in procuring the material
Tor such journal with the CELEBRITY thus demon
strated can scarcely be comprehended; but that it
pays Is apparent from the great circulation at
tanned. For example, two hundred thousand copies
OF the edition containing the account above re-
ferred to were sold. II any is inclined to doubt
the pluck, energy and perseverance Of American
Journalists let him take the HERALD one week,
and he viii be convinced that there is at least
one paper in the United States that cannot be sur
passed in the world.

THE "BIG NEW YORK HERALD" AGAIN.
Last evenings mail brought the NEW YORK HER

100 columns, OF which eghty-three are filed with
advertisements set solid and close as compositors
technically say. And this, too, when the cry Is
Hard timesl" 1t proves two things very clearly
that the New York advertisers business men of all
degrees, are the keenest and ceverest of any In
the land, and that they estimate the HERALD as the
best advertising medium in that great and wealthy
city. SO 1t is. In the Old World the London
Times has long been called "The Thunderer." So
might we call the HERALD "Lightning." 1t H.
Eliminates, and its flashes are irresistible. Ana
when Macaulay's New Zeaander shall SIT ON London
Bridge and view the ruins OF the mighty London of
to-day, as Marius sat amid the ruins OF Carthage,
1t is an even thing that New YORK HERALD re-
porter will there interview him, and the earliest
morning edition of that unrivaled newspaper will
give the report OF the interview in full to its mil
lions OF patrons and ten times that number Of
fails to give news there won't be any.

THE VIENNA EXPOSITION AND THE HERALD.
The NEW YORK HERALD has already for long
time enjoyed q worldwide reputation for the ra-
pidity, fulness and correctness OF the reports
which 1t procures, regardless of expense, from the
most talented correspondents in all parts Of the in
habited world No journal in the world can even
approach it, and everybody has already long formed
the opinion that in the field Of journalism the vic
tories OF the NEW YORK HERALD can never be sur
passed. And this opinion is also in far correct
one that no other journal can even undertake to
follow it; but the HERALD always advances and
the HERALD of to-day always surpasses
that OF yesterday, or, in other words,
one HERALD can only be surpassed by
another. At the Vienna Exposition it has engaged
correspondents four OF the most eminent writer's
Of the day-Edmund Yates, an Englishman; John
Russell Young, an American, and Berthold Auer
bach and Louise Muhlbach, who sent their reports
by cable at a stupendous expense; the former In
English and both OF the latter In the German Ian
guage. The HERALD OF May 2 contained, besides
the English reports nom Vienna and the plan OF
the Exposition structure, not less than nine col.
umns OF reports written and printed In German,
from the pens OF Auerbach, Muhlbach and others,
opening festivities were described in attractive,
| fascinating style. And to this stupendous enter
| prise owe 1t our readers that they, here In
| the Far West, over four thousand miles distant
from Vienna, can read more of the Vienna Exposi-
ton than perhaps nine-tenths of all the inhabi.
| tants OF Germany at the same time. When we
| more than twenty years ago occupied the humble
position OF composior in the printing rooms OF the
| NEW YORK HERALD, we then already thought that
that paper had reached the climax Of journalistic
| glory: but the gigantic progress made since has
nlled us with astonishment and admiration. Truly,
there is but one NEW YORK HERALDl
| In another part we print the address OF Louise
Muhlbach to the ladies of America and her general
description Of the opening festivities in Vienna,
and think we have the appreciation of our readers
In devoting large space to this fresh and attrac-

| However prepossessed many people may be
against the great newspaper OF the States, 1t is i'm.
possible not to admire the wonderful enterprise OF
its proprietor. Its greatest feat hitherto has been

done nothing more in the way OF novel ex.

Accordingly IL sent Boyd Henderson, but he did not
