Leag may it twinkle. Alamance Gleaner.
The Wilmington Stab has entered upon its 13th
volume, and we are pleased to notice still continues
on the road to success. We esteem the Stab very
highly, regarding it as oneof the very beet newspa
pers that come, to this office. Its news columns
are always a little fuller than those of any other of
our exchanges, and its editorial department is con
ducted with much ability. Mergahtcn Blade.
Humble in its beginnings, aa was inseparable from
an enterprise begun amid the wreck of fortune that
attendee! the collapse of the Southern Confederacy,
the Stab has steadily '-waxed" until it now beams
resplendent in the full glow of a constantly bright
ening prosperity. A. a newspaper it ha. few equals,
and no superior, for appropriate selection and ju
dicious arrangement, and we are proud to rank it
amonfronr most acceptable exchangee. UUUborQ
Reoorder.
The Wilmington Mobkiks Stab has entered upon
the thirteenth year of its existence, and we take
this opportunity to congratulate it upon its prospe
rity and deserved popularity. The remarkable suc
cess of the Stab is due to its strict attention to
business. The boast of the Stab (rightfully too
is that it always has the news, and this is the first
thing in journalism. Otherwise the paper' is all
lhat the term of "good newspaper" Implies, and Its
corps of editors and reporters are thoroughly edu
cated newspaper men. May the healthful, moral
influence of the Stab never be retarded, and may
its genial, eaterprisiog proprietor enjoy many more
happy years of usefulness. -GOtdsboro Messenger.
