constitutions requisite for the health
of things as of men, and though its
path has not always been strewed with
flowers, it has pursued the even tenor
of its way and, without deviation, has
continued to show the very age and
body of the times" Since it com
menced to supply its readers with their
daily news, before the beginning of the
present century, whole ages have fled
and their works decayed, and ma
tons been scattered but the
stout old. GAZETTE, in all that
while, save when seized by the
enemies of its State, has never fail
ed to appear every day at its subscrib-
crs doors, and, from present indi-
ations, will keep on doing SO,
sswill never fade from its hale and
hearty green" and, like the brooks,
will go on forever" So, with its invari-
able wisdom, it discards regrets, lets
the dead bury the dead, forgets un-
pleasant things, and starts out on this,
lis ninety.ffth birthday, with "smile
for those who hate and a sigh for those
who love, upon another annual round,
and with a Happy New Year to each
and all of its many readers, and the
hope that all of them and all their
friends may live long and prosper.
