The press work was done by Buell & Blanchard. The counting room was on Penn- sylvania avenue, near 6th street. about where Platz now has a restaurant. On the first of May, 1853, THe Stan was removed to the sec- ond story of a blacksmith shop on D street, between 12th and 13th, on the site of the pres- ent Franklin Engine House, where it was printed until September 30th, 1854. The Star Changes Hands. About the Ist of July, 1853, Taz Star was purchased by W. D. Wallach and W. H. Hope, and on the 5th of July it was issued by them in enlarged form. Captain Tate continued with THE STAR as cashier, but declined an in. vitation by the new propriciors to retain an interest in ihe paper. Either he had got al- ready tired of the heavy work of staring a newspaper on small capital, or had Some mis nder the new management. At any rate he prefer. red to take a sure thing in the way of a weekly salary, and thus, it turned out, he imisse @ golden opportunity. He remained with THE STaR until his death in 183.

The el bardment of the petty little village of ¢ town by Commodore Hollins, on behalf of the Nicaragua Transit company, was about the only speck of war for the news columns, or for editorial discussion. The American Peace So- ciety had been busy in promulgating their pa- cific doctrines. Elihu Burritt, the “learned blacksmith,” had just established in Europe the “League of Universal Brotherhpod,” for the abolition of war throughout the world, and the peaceful settlement of international dim- culties. Peace Congresses held sessions in va- rious parts of the world. The doctrine was universally preached that war was so irration. al, wicked, and wasteful, that the enlightened nations of the earth would never again resort to it asa means of settling disputes. It really seemed as if the future mission of the journal- ist would be to celebrate the victories of peace and good-will. and register the size of the reaceful products—the mammoth pumpkins ya cabbages. of the earth.

Atthe time Ta R came into the hands of the present proprietors in 1857, it was the opinion of many that it had reached ihe flood- tide of its prosperity, and that both in cireula- tion and business it must share in the general shrinkage of values, and of District population following upon the close of the war. It was thought that Mr. Wallach had sold out very shrewdly, getting a high price at the opportune time. But the result has shown that the con- fidence of its purchasers in their ability to make it yei more of a suecess has been abun- dantly justified.
