The "Witness"
The Montreal Witness is now offer
ing the remainder of the present year
free to new subscribers for next year
as an encouragement to gtye that val-
uable paper.a trial. The Witness, both
Weekly and Daily, has, during the
year, adopted what it declares to be a
model form, with; neat, small, "conven-
ossesient pages, being enabled, by the pos-
session of
sion<of one of the most complete
printing presses ever built by the Hoes,
of :New. York, to vary the number of
pages at will. The paper enters the
press at two places, on rolls ' broad or
narrow as required, and the newspap-
ers conic out at lightning speed, folded,
posted and cut. Besides the :improve-
ment in form, there is a remarkable
improvement in typography, the type
being set by the wonderful 'Lintotype
machine, which attains the speed of
five igen, and casts a ' new type face
every time. The .proprietors' invite
visitors to Montreal to see these ma-
chines. The picture element has so
greatly developed in the IP Nees, that
it may now bo fairly tailed an illus-
tratedaper." The t meas has moved

junction bf 'B1eury and St. Peter streets
with Craig Street, and has a spacious
