The Press.

The press swaps the world. II is the
great lever by which human minds are
moved; the molder Of public opinion;
the elevating and enohling power that
lifts us, work-Worn and weary though
we may be, out Of the time deepened
ruts OF conservatism, ard places us
fairly and squarely upon the even and
upward track of advanced thought and
feeling. Every element that has
contributed to the growth and prosper
ity Of a beautiful city, and helped to
place her in the enyied position she
occupies among the chief cities Of a
nation, becomes a subject of pride te
her citizens, and of interest not only to
them, but also to the great multitude
who are connected with her by social
ties or business relations. And among
the agencies that have brought about
this result, none mas been o power
full than her press. This is the golden
age of the press. Long live the news
paper, verify, it sways the world.
