"• /I, i - •'•• THE deplorable positidn of Auckland, deprived as it is of newspaper accommodation, and plunged as the people'are in dismal darkness, has p- ompted the proprietors of this journal to issue a MORNING PAPER, the like of which has never been known in the annals of journalism. It is evident to all persons desirous of .advertising that the more newspapers there are in a district, the cost of advertising is further decreased, and it is mainly with the desire of affording additional facilities to the business people of the city that this enterprise is undertaken. THE MORNING STAR will dwell in a region uncontaminated with the degrading consideration of sublunary things, and from that etherial sphere will look down with pity on the sectarian and political strivings of mortal existences. From that point of moral and material elevation, it will be inf-'a position to recoid not merely the events of earth, jjut the gyratious of the planetary world,-and the progression of the so-called fixed stars.'while it will pitch its key in harmony with the music of the spheres. It will not be an Auckland paper, nor yet a provincial paper, neither a colonial paper^-in fact, no paper at all, but a sun—a blazing sun—and not a satellite, illuminating space with its effulgence. Words fail us in the effort to describe what it will be ; but we shall curb .our impetuous imagination, and deign to state how it will affect the vulgar concerns of this little place—Auckland. It is well known, for example, that emissaries of the Commune are ~*fc present in Auckland, and that principles*, subversive not sirnplv of British authority; but tending to the "overthrow of social .order and morality and religion, are presumptuously advocated in our midst. It will be the unflinching advocate of loyalty — religion — freedom — and the uncompromising enemy of Oj.n uoism; the S° V!L' a nd, *??
