The Chancellor lad from the , beglne uing o very clear parception of the tmportance of tho press fn our time, and ho concluded that he must bavo it well under nis haud. In letter nddressed to Baron Schietn! from 8t. Potersburg, May 13, 1839, he sa ‘*Most corrcapondents write for thelr bread, most journals are published in order to make money. An experionecd reader may easily dis« cern when thiey havo received an Austrian sub- ventton, when they expect it, or when they wish to force It by menacing hints”; and hosuizgests their employment *ln_order to produce a favorable clinnge for Prusein.’’ In . another, letter, speal of the National Zeltung, Magde: bury Gazette, ctc., o calls the journallsta who attack him “atupid beasts.” Onhisnccession ho found only one paper of fmportance, the Areus. Zeltung, Teady to support him. Another, the Nord-Dewtschs Allgemeine Zellung, was founded by a former Domocrat, Herr Lirass, who bas sustained tho causo of his patron with the zeal of a rencgade, Till 1800 these two jourunls formed pretty nearly the sole journallstic sup- ort of Blsmarck’s unpopular poliey; Iater at- cmnts to win the French press Uy Inscrting articles pald ns advertiscments proved une successful, reat clanga was pro- duced by 8adown; nevertheless, at lcost {n Bouthern Germany, the Libernl press rematned hostile to him.
