the increase of the circulation of the pa
per, and its growth in influence and the
public regard. have been almost unpar-
alleled in the history of American jour
nalism. Its increased circulation and
business have not only warranted, but
demanded, the erection of new build
ing to furnish accommodation for the
paper and the printing and binding de-
partments connected with it, and it now
occupies one of the largest buildings, OF
the most eligible site in the city.
The proprietors have also been at very
large expense, during the last year, fol
the purchase of fast Hoe Press, and
other machinery to facilitate the promp
publication of the paper, which is nov
printed on a large quarto sheet, of fifty
) six long columns, at least three times II
the week.
The weekly UNION, published ever.
! Thursday, has all the features of th
, Daily. 1t gives all the news in cor

Paris, l6. The Republican journals of to-.
day speak In the most eulogistic terms of the
members of both the right and left centres of
the Assembly because of their vote yesterday
against the restoration of the monarchy
They say the vote, though it does not proclaim
the Republic, shows that the Monarchy is i'm
possible.
The Orleanist journals affect to consider
that the action of the Assembly leaves the
situation unchanged, but express the belief
nevertheless that the consequence of the vote
will be the reconciliation of President Mac
Mahon's powers.
In the Assembly, to-day, on reading the
journal of yesterdays proceedings, loud COM
plants were made by members of the mac
curscy of the lists of yeas and nays. Gen.
Cissey and three others said they had voted
in favor of the motion for urgency on the left
centre bill.
A deputy who voted against the motion de-
clared that members of the left whose names
were recorded in its favor were not present
when the vote was taken, He demanded a
ratification Of the vote, which according to
his statement, ought to stand 500 affirmative,
to $40 negative.
The subject was referred to committee of
