better feelings came over him, and - be

The Marshall HtraM believes with MS
that the best interests of the whole
country, as well as the democratic
party, would be served by the establish,
ment of an able democratic paper at
the city of Washington Indeed, such
apaper has grown to be a national ne.
cessity. In a popular government such
as ours too much publicity cannot be
gwen to every plan, purpose and object
of not only the government as a whole
but OF all the different individuals com.
posing it, or acting for it, either as sim.
pie representatives or cabinet officers.
We urge this consideration upon the
leaders of the democracy, and when
congress meets, definite steps should be
taken to put the enterprise on foot. If
necessary, an assessment on the party.
by states, should be made, and a suili.
Gent sum raised to establish a paper
worthy OF the country and the party.
We should let our light shine, and that
through broad, liberal, honest and
unpurchaseable newspaper.

Success of SIanIey's African ExpIora

New York Express: Stanley has re-
appeared once more, after, according to
his account, the most terrible Journey
through the heart of Africa that he had
ever experienced The direct result of
his explorations has been the discovery
that the Lualaba is the Congo river. Of
the hair.breath 'scapes, the stirring ac-
cidents, the combats with hostile me-
groes, and all other concomitants of the
story OF African travel, it is not needful
to speak now. Stanley has once more
proved his pluck, his energy, and his
perseverance, combined with the sleuth
hound fidelity of following out the trail
he started upon. His victory is anoth.
er triumph of journalism, in whose in.
terests he has labored and triumphed.

In August. 1875, a good looking eight
column newspaper, purportiDg to be issued
by Ii. L. 4 A. j. Barter, at Port Byron :
for 81 year, made its appearance. II
was printed in Milwaukee. On the oath
of June. 1876, they issued a quarter
sheet, printed on one side only. And on
the 29th of July following they. in simil-
ar quarter sheet, announced that they had
discontinued the Milwaukee patent issue.
On the 5th OF August they issued a quar-
ter sheet, printed on both sides. and
announced that they had lost 500, during
the past year, 10 furnishing the Milwaukee
patent inside. On the l2th of August
they issued little column sheet. of d
pages-whole size Of sheet 10 by19 inches.
The paper was started as independent in
p1litics, and, although the proprietors were
Democrats they thought 1T policy to lean to
the Republican side, and they supported
the Republican ticket at the fall election of
1875, and ran up the Republican county
ticket for the fall of 1876 In September
they changed the name of the paper to

run the concern and his name was used as
one of the partners, though never leaving
his business on the road By this time
Jack" had got enough of newspaper
glory and he pulled out" and Fl. L. Bar
ter was announced as editor, and Thorn
as Barber manager"
The new firm soon dropped Tildtn
and Hendricks and came out for Cooper
and Cary, and having thus boxed the
compass the concern died, and Fl. L. Barter
appeared on the other side of the river With
asheet 20by26 inches. pages, 5 columns

DURING the last twenty years Eng
land has paid to foreign countries for
food-accoriing to the report of Mr..
Stephen Bourne of her Majesty's
Customs-slO,O 100000. The re.
port states that each member of the
community now consumes to the
value of two and half times as
much foreign food as he did twenty
years ago. With this immense drain
upon her resources, England would
in IA few years be reduced to penury,
were it not for the immense sums of
money paid her as interest.
