THE WEEKLY CLARION,
FOR 1880.
SPECIAL ANNOUNCEMENT TO OUR SUB
sCRIBERs AND FRIENDS.

THE CLARION was established in the year
1887. and after two more issues will enter upon
the forty-third year Of It's existence. 1t has
always appeared "on time and never, so lar
az We know, has failed to greet its readers at
least once week 1t has been tried by war
and by fire, and still lives, n faithful servant
of the people It has been under the present
management for thirteen years-a period into
which century Of important events have been
crowded. THE CLARION has not only been a
faithful chronicler Of these events, but has
fearlessly and candidly discussed every issue
of interest to the public. 1t has survived the
Vaccinations Of the party Of hate to crush
it, and lives to see honest home government
take the place Of alien rule.
With this brief retrospect, which we trust
will be a. pleasing to our readers to our
selves, we take occasion to express our person
al gratitude to the host OF friends whose names
have continued steadily ON our books in all
these years For ten years we have adhered
10 the rule Of erasing names at expiration Of
time paid for, unless renewed; but our list OF
"never-stop" subscribers is steadily increasing,
and we would publish many OF the kind
things they say were such matters as accepta-
BILE to the public as to the publishers. As
many of our subscriptions expire with the
year, we have thought it appropriate to remind
our readers that We would be glad to have
their orders for renewal, and that they might
largely increase our list by commencing the
paper to their neighbors and friends. We
announce no special attractions for the year
1885, other than the pledge that THE CLARIoN
will be, in all respects, the very best paper that
