> America gives a library to almost

two copies "f the Union twelve cents.
The two copies of either paper contain
nearly or quite rs much matter as is
contained in an ordinary dollar book. :"
This fact alone pushes the newspaper
to the front in the civilization of our
times. We cannot ignore it if we
would; we ought not to ignore it if we
could.
Dr.: Porter says, 1.-THE newspaper is
very largely the educator and controller
Of public sentiment, and hence has be-

this moment apparently more influential
than preachers, judges, or legislators.
