Company, and tie rellfament Of the
Hon. A. NJ Thomson flom the posi-
ton OF editor.
The incoming editor recognizes the
ability and faithfuIness which have
characterized the administra ion Of
the eminent and esteemed gentleman
who has just vacated the position.
IF there is possibility for improve
ment. that possibility will be as
siduously cultivated. But it is rot
alone by those who are immediately
connected with its management that
the character ola newspap per is deter
mined. livery paper has a con-
stituency more or less clearly dehn
cd, and it rests largely With IT. con-
stituents to make or marlt. In the
case Of The Sentinel, several changes
involving considerable expense, are
already projected others will speedily
follow, and til s process will continue
without abatement, SO long IS the

friends Of The Sentinel TO all i'll sx-

The Sentinel VIII advocate the
principles OF the Republican party
because it has been identified with
that organization from its ircep'ion,
because every one connected with the
editorial department Of the paper Is
iirnly convinced that in those
principles lies the hope nf pure
administration, u popular govern
ment, Of The perpetuity Of the Union.
Without. sacrificing its right to
condemn wrong doing wherever it
may he found, it will have the
modesty TO subordinate its judgment
Of The wisdom of measures. to the
opinion Of the recognized leaders OF
the party, and its Judgment Of ihe
fitness Of candidates 10 The choice OF

Of selecting is dey0lved.
To the task Of furnishing its read
