This week Tun Pose enters upon its 26th year and we think it a fitting occasi- on to return thanks to the public for the generous patronage aoeorded us, Ao- cording to an old oustom this is our Silver Anniversary and therefore we will be greatly pleased to receive donations of that coin, or bills if the silver is not handy, to square op every account on our books. Some people say the end of the world is likely to oorne in 1898, so we give timely yarning to all who are in arrears if they expect to be happy in the hereafter. TEE POST was never more healthy or hearty. Its circulation le good and increasing in a style that makes the proprietor occasionally loop pleasant ; the Advertising and Jub Departments wale never more heartily supported and the facilities for turning out first•alass work were never batter. We have much to be tbanbful for. We are specially in. debted to our numerous correspondents for their kind aid. If they knew the valva we place on their weekly aontribu• Bons, they would seldom mise Bending them. For the time to come our inten• tion is to boom Est lluron, and more partlonlarly that part of it in which our lot is cast ; to say what we think 011 public matters, whether it suite every• body or not ; to be fair with those who differ with us ; and to endeavor to do all we can to further every good cause and work. We solicit a continuance of pubtio patronageand will be pleased to have our friends recommend Tun Peer where they can conscientiously do so. Grey Connell Meeting.
