dated August 1st. 1859. The paper
contains two pages with three columns
to the page, set in Plea type, with
columns 26 ms Plea wide, or about
2-16ths narrower than two columns of
the NEWS. The paper was very we'll
printed, on fairly good quality of
newspaper, and contained some we'll
written articles, and altogether is quite
an interesting bit of history. The
matter is of a religious character, most
~ relating to matters pertaining to the
church and Sunday school work. 1t
contains an account of the death of
Evan A. Polk, % year old son of the
editor of the paper, and feelingly
written up by the father. 1t also con-
