The NEW YORK HERALD has achieved great tri-
umph In American journalism. Its issue OF the 9th
instant is in quintube form, containing 12O col
umns, seventy-eight OF them devoted to advertis-
| ing The HERALD is the greatest daily newspaper
in the world. For enterprise in cleaning intelli-
gence 1t far outstrips oil rivals. Its advertising
patronage Is immense and is richly merited by its
enterprise. 1t claims circulation OF nearly
one hundred and fifty thousand.
From the Steubenville Ohio Herald, April ILL.,
The NEW YORK HERALD has got to be quintuple
1t quntuped on Sunday last. Next Sunday we ex-
pect to 1t sextupled. 1t is the largest and best
newspaper In the world 1t gives its readers news
from all parts OF the globe, in many instances,
taking the difference in time, before the
event cabled has occurred. For enterprise
the HERALD outstrtps all competitors. The
HERALD did Cuba, Captain Jack In the lava beds,
the "Swamp Angels' of North Carolina, and now
one of the irrepressible reporters has gone down
into the ocean among the dead lying in the cabins
OF the Inflated Atlantic, to explore and make known
that which the world would never know Of In ad-
dition to It's news columns, the advertising col
umns are reflex Of the trade Of the country.
Almost hundred columns OF new advertisements
in one issue attest the tact that the Spring trade
has opened for the pages Of the HERALD are GER
tain index.
From the Tamaqua (Pa,) Courier April 1871
Last Sundays edition OF the NEW YORK HERALD
came to US in quintupie form, that is, five sheets
were issued in one edition, containing 100 columns,
of which seventy-eight were solid advertisements
and forty-two reading matter and general news
One hundred and fifty thousand copies Of this num-
Der were Issued. TO give our readers an idea OF
the labor required to print such large paper, we
Will state that 1t took seven Of the fastest steam
presses made to put the edition through In
time, and 1t required force OF about one hundred
and fifty compositors to set the matter contained In
it. The advertisements alone are computed to
net the proprietor about $4,000. This is the
largest sheet and the largest edition OF any one
paper ever issued in the world, and shows the re-
variable energy, perseverance and capital re-
quired to publish such paper. The HERALD de-
serves It, thought for 1t publishes the latest tee-
grams, the most news, the best correspondence,
the most correct market reports and the spright-
lest editorials Of any paper published either in
this or any other country.
From the Raleigh IN. CO. Sentinel, April III
Triple and quadruple numbers OF the NEW YORK
HERALD are of almost daily occurrence. On Sun
day last the first auintupe issue made. To
those not acquainted with the art OF prlnting-to
the unntiated in the printing business generally,
and even to One-half of the "craft" itsef-the an
nouncement above is almost meaningless. To the
experienced, even, the days work which produced
last Sundays quintuple HERALD Is stupendous, al
most bewildering
