THE New York Daily News on M onday
celebrated its tenth anniversary as a
cheap afternoon paper. 1t was pub.
lished many years as large morning
journal, and did moderately well.
Changing to an afternoon paper, and
putting the price down to the minimum
sum at which paper could be made, it,
success was at once assured beyond
question, and it's circulation has ever
since been great, reaching on one occa-
sion the enormous figures Of two hum
dred and torty-five thousand copies. 1t
found an unoccupied field, aud took pos
session OF it. Very soon other papers,
similar, and sometimes even better,
were started, and large sums OF money
spent in the vain effort to achieve the
same success, but each in turn, after
longer or shorter existence, has given
up the attempt and died, and the News
has gone Oh all the time, increasing II
circulation and Importance. Besides
its cheapness, it has always been ener
getic in the collection of intellIgenct
and reliable In all things.

A ST. PETERSBURG paper says the bit.
terness in Russia towards England was
greatly increased by the snubbing
which Madame Ignatieff received from
Queen Victoria. 1t appears that the
great Russian diplomat had his wife
with him on his recent visit to London,
and, of course, was presented at Court.
When Madame Ignatief was introduced
to the Queen, who was attended by one
of her daughters, Victoria remained
seated during the short interview, and
Rfter very few moments, dismissed the
Russian lady with a wave OF her hand.

DIR. PIERCE:
Dear Sir-I was sick for six years, and for
two years could scarcely walk about the house.
My breath was short and suffered from pain
IN my breast and stomach all the time; also
from palmtation and an internal fever, or
burning sensation, and experienced frequent
smoth trng or choking sensations. also suf-
fered from pain low down across my bowels
and in my back, and was much reduced In
flesh. 1 now feel like different person, my
health is so good. l have used seven bottles OF
your Golden Medical Discovery and Favorite
Prescription, and feel that am well.
Very respectfully.

the Lrejudices of the people ana their
national traditions, has firmly resisted
all efforts to introduce any system OF re-
liglon contrary to their accepted belief.
The greatest difficulties between the
Government and people OF China and
other nations, has been the intense OPP
position of the Chinese to the presence
and preaching of missionaries. From
this have sprung many, If not most
of the Quarrels, assassinations and
wars that have occurred in and with
China. But now, all at once, and ap-
parently unexpected by foreigners, the
Government itself issues decree, which
is published in the Peking Gazette, that
not only fayors religious liberation, but
makes special reference to Christian
preaching, and enjoins upon the Provin-
cial Governments to favor missionary
labor. The reason which has induced
this change of policy is not given, nor
are we here well enough acquainted
with the questions under consideration
| to even guess at 1T. The natural con
clusion is, tbat the Chinese rulers have
discovered that the converted Chinaman
makes a better citizen, and are willing
TO see the condition Of the people OF the
Empire thus improved.

THE larger collection of maps you get
the less you will know about the seat of
war. A close study of any one OF those
published in the morning papers and a
comparison of names with The tele-
graphic dispatches would destroy a
mans confidence in the science OF
geography in less than an hour and
make him lose all the sympathy he ever
felt for poor Mitchell on account of his
suferings in Asia.
