During all the century of our national
existence, no one year has perhaps en-
boiled so much Of interest and impor-
lance as will be cOmpassed within the
twelve mOhths Of the Centennial Ami
versary. The year 1876 witnesses in the
popular Congressional body the return to
power Of the great National Democracy,
which will be watched with intense in
terest in lie every movement The great
Centennial Exposition. illustrating and
emphasizing every phase OF the nations
progress, side by side with the deVelOpe-
ments Of universal civilization, will afford
constant fund OF incident and informa-
ton, which, to the great mass Of the peo-
pie, can only be reflected by the newspa-
per Of broad scope and commanding re-
sources The Presidential contest ofthe
year, with the great diversity OF interests
and opinions, and the anomalous align

struggle.
An era so full Of interest signalizes the
extraordinary need Of all the people for
means Conformation and instruction and
stimulates the press to its highest posi-
bilities. Conscious Of this need, and in
ready response to it, the management Of
the
LOUIsyILLE COCRIER-JOCRNAL
Is determined that its Forty-sixlh year
shall more than maintain its supremacy
as the great newspaper Of the West and
South.
The CoURIER-JoURNAL combines the
experience. ability and material resources
of three old time Louisville newspapers
Of national repute-the Louisville COuri-
er, Louisville Journal and Louisville
Democrat-and is fortified in the respect
and con 6dence resulting from nearly halt
century Of their individual and COM
bined success. Its thoroughly independ-
ent Democratic position will be fully
maintained. and all its departments will
be most carefully prepared. Il gives, in
the course Of wear, several attractive
serial novels. rOma"ess, &c, written ex-
pressly Tor its columns; its telegraphic
summary faithfully reflects all the news
of the world; allie special correspondents
write from all the great capitals: the
financial and commercial reports are en-
piOus and Trustworthy; the agricultural
department is becoming more ard more
complete and int resting; the Patrons 81

the advantage Of a great newspaper; pRb-

vOtiOn, ability and prudence are univer-

The CorREE-IoURXA is submitted TO
the people as embracing a combination OF
all the conservative elements which have

stitution in forming a great. national,
Democratic party. Il is also presented
as the largest, livest and cheapest news
paper in America. No other paper pub-
lished in the South or Southwest can ap-
proach il in these respects.
For the truth OF these assertions, the
reader is simply requested TO compare
the COURIER-JoURNAL, line By line and
column by column, with any other news
paper south OF the Ohio river. II the re-
suit is not found to leave a balance in lis
favor. we will not urge the Point. Our
aim is to produce the best article on the
market and to sell it cheapest The
law Of trade applies not less TO newspa-
pers than to other articles OF everyday
life. We look to the unvaryins rule q

resentative press. the CoCRIER-JOURNAL
expects to surpass all rivalry in circula-
tion and influence.
