* both enjoy, not in the City of Washington THE LEADING NEWSPAPERS. THE EVENING STAR. THE WEEKLY STAR. The proprietors of THE Stax present to the public its daily and weekly editions, respec- tively, as not only the completest and best, but also the cheapest epitome of events occurring at the national capital, and of general news as well, to be found anywhere. How well the public understands this is conclusively shown by the exceptionally wide circulation they | alone, but throughout all the States and Ter- ritories. In order that the reader not now familiar | with the paper and its strong hold on the pub- lic may understand at a glance upon what | elements its great popularity is based, the opinions of some of its contemporaries as to its merits are appended. It is needless to add that no person is so good a judge of the value of any given newspaper as the men who con duct newspapers themselves. What Other Papers Say About The Star. Decidedly one of the best news; pers blished in the Untied states: has nothing in commen with the rabid partisan press, with which our country is at this time unfortunately overstocked. A spirit of frankness, candor and fair dealing gives charac: ter to itsarticies and adds much to its dignity and value. Asacon ndium of the current events of the day, it is without a rival.—Newbernian (4.0), Has fairly earned its present prosperity by its energy in obtaining news and the ability which it has shown in the treatment of all current topics. Its solid merits are sufficiently testified toby the fact that it occupies so prominent a place in Wash« Ington journalism. It improves as its years in- crease. and Washington would hardly be Washing- ton without It.— Baltimore American, Now the oldest paper in Washington eity, and | one of the most valuable, as a living picture of metropolitan and Congressional life: has earned a continuous a Observance of ontliving all i shrewd. less ca: 1 prosperous existen epular sentiment and po} iginal compeers who wer ess d less enterprising .—Hills- ts boro’ (N.C) “der. i} One of the most Interesting and best edited papers in the country: givesall the latest very freshest | news of Congress and Washington city; isa most anxiously looked for paper by every poy should be in the hands of every public man and cit! zenanxious | for reliable information from the eapital of our nation.— Parkersburg (W.
