Almost every distinguished visitor who c ome 3 to these shores comments upon the very h.gn standard that the press of tlbs country maintains. 1 S.May I venture to hope that you will do all in your power to encourage the maintenance of that standard, healing in mind, the immense power that the press wields in moulding pub'ir 'opinion.” •
