In these days everything explodes. The
latest instance of this most dangerous ten

Salutatory.

The business interest IF Essex
County, demand it shall have a news
paper of its own, devoted more espe-
cially to the immediate wants Of its
citizen, than any paper from out Of
the County possibly can be. Beliey-
ing in this theory, the "HERALD AS
ISOLATION" was formed a little less
than a year since, and its first num-
Der issued at the beginning of the
year 1873.
The success attending its issue,
Notwithstanding the opposition with
which it was met from out the county,
has been such rs to warrant its con-
tinuance.
Circumstances at the present time,
compel change Of Editor, and as
this number marks a new era in the
HERALD's history, we take the oppor-
tunity Of saying to the people of the
County, that in its future course, we
intend it shall meet their wants, in
regard to the tenor and aim of the
subject matter therein contained, as
far as possible, devoting its columns
to the interest of temperance, relig-
ion, justice and the demands of the
period.
While giving the general news of
the times, we shall especially seek to
give the local items from the towns
in the County in a more complete
manner than heretofore. To this enc
Of making il complete success, we
desire the aid of our friends; further
than this, we propose that the HER
AID shall speak for itself.

ValediotorY,

With this number, my connection
with the HERALD ceases. In my
dealings with the public through its
columns, have endeavored to treat
all men and all questions with candor
and fairness. Whatever my failings
have been, they have been in judge
ment, not in intention. In retiring
from the position which l have here
tofore held, l feel it hut justice to
myself TO say, that in every assurance
made to the public, through its col
umns or otherwise, IN reference to
the paper, have acted in good faith
towards them and strictly in accord
ance with my understanding of the
facts, and though circumstances be-
yond my control, have rendered it
impossible to exactly follow the orig
inal plan upon which the IiERALD
was. established, there has been no
intentional wrong done to any one.
Still retaining my original belief In
regard to the necessity of a paper in
Essex County, and hoping to see the
HERALD continued aud prosperous, at
the same time thanking the patrons
of the HERALD for their former kind
ness / now bid them adieu

The business prospect is brighter
than it was o fortnight ago. Conf
dence is being gradually restored,
more money is changing hands, the
banks show stronger position, and
a more hopeful feeling prevails gene
rally. Respecting the commerce of
the port, the more equal movement Of
merchandise, represented by the fall
ing-off in the imports and the gain in
exports, which began in the early
part Of the year, still continues. The
total value Of the imports since Janu-
airy is 54,179,632, and the total
value of the exports is more than halt
as mnch. Legitimate trade is belicv-
ed to be in sounder condition than
during former periods of monetary
disturbance. The volume of trade
during the week has been light, and
it is probable that. during the remain
ing months of the year, purchasers
will be cautious and conservative,
1t is believed, however, that theil
necessities will require q fair volume
of trade. Globe.
