THE PEOPLES PAPER.
What the People Say OF It, and How
'F.aay An-2reciafe 1t.

They Appreciate IA.
We can say, and are glad to be able
to say without vain-glOry, that the
UNION AND AMERICAN has never at any
time had a more fattering and cheering
opening of the year than in January, 1874.
Ali the editions of the paper-Daily, Semi
Weekly and Weekly-have had large ac-
ceSsiOns to their numbers. The demand
for city and local distribution is greater
than it has ever been at any time hereto
fore. The newsdealers in Nashville and
on the lines Of railroads and in the towns
along all the railroads leading into this
city, take a greater aggregate number OF
copies of the UNION AND AMERICAN than at
any ordinary time heretofore. The subscrip-
tions by mail are increased by daily and
weekly orders from every part of Tennessee
and adjoining States. The number of mail
orders fer the paper were greater for the
first twenty days Of the present month than
for any entire month of the past since the
war.
own State, but extends into all the States
ofthe South and Southwest. As an indi-
cation of the general appreciation of our
efforts TO make a paper acceptable to the
people, and affording an opportunity to
tender our thanks for the kind words said
to us in business letters, we extract from
correspondence received in the last few days
as follows:
