The platform then adopted was " to accurately and fairly represent the feelings and expressed wishes of the community." That is still our alm

The method adopted was "to publish overy- thing that it is good for the public to know, and Interesting to read." That is still our method.

Several Important improvements in the print- Leg department are contemplated, and the size of the Telegraph will shortly be increased by several columns, for advertising purposes!

The Telegraph aims at giving the `earllest, freshest, and most accurate Jocal and general news, and it generally gets there.

The staff consists of four dukes and a prize fighter, who speak all the dead languages and several that ought to die.

The common reporters have orders to follow the Telegraph men and see where the news is lying concealed. Our contemporarlen generally do the rest of the lying unconcealed.

-Our ten years! record shows more fact and fun to the square inch than could be found in all the other papers If they lived to be a thousand.

Tablic scandals, by deeda, official reality, "log-rolling," and indeed everything calculated to injure the interests of the com munity receive scant mercy at our hands.
