THE WASHINGTONIAN.


Since our first publication in April, we have
observed that the WAsH1NGToNIAN has been
highly complimented by our brethren Of the
press, generaly-not only teetotal but politi-
CAL Modesty hitherto prevented us acknow-
lodging the compliment, and it was our inten-
ton to have passed them over in silence. Upon
reflection, however, we consider 1t due to
those who have noticed our feeble efforts in
this great cause, to return our warmest thanks,
and to assure them that we will endeavor, II
sustained so as to enable us to proceed in our
undertaking, to cultivate the kindliest feelings
with all. We 60 for carrying forward the
Temperance reformation by all honorable
means; and il is immaterial to US whether that
is accomplished by moral suasion, or law, or
combination of both.


The Massachusetts Cataract" one OF the
best Of our exchanges, and to which we were
considerably indebted in getting up the first
number Of the Westinghouse, notices US as
follows:


THE WAsHlNGToNIAN.-This is the title OF
a New Weekly teetotal Paper just commenced
by George Cochran & Co., at Washington, in
the District Of Columbia, and we hail its ad-
vent, and its publication at that particular
locality with pleasure. The name seems to
be peculiarly appropriate, significant as it is IN
this case, of both place and principle, though
that cognomen has bedpme about as common
and inexpensive Of individuality among tribes
of temperance papers, as that of"Sm'h " has
among the tribes Of men. 1t appears to be
conducted with ability, and we have too much
selflove not to be well pleased with its depart
mental and typographical appearance, for it
seems, in these respects, almost fac-simile
of the MASSACHUSETTS CATARACT, the Publish
ers having had the good taste as topographic
amateurs, to adopt, and copy in the same kind
of type, and also the honesty, as gentlemen,
to give credit for some, if not all, of our head
lines, department captions, and their accompa-
nying mottos. So all who are acquainted with
the CATARACT, can have pretty correct idea
of the ph,s, and the dress, of our new and
welcome brother, the Washington "Wash-
ingtonian."


The Portsmouth (Va,) OLD DOMINION thus
notices US:


THE WAsHISGToNIAN, is the title of a new
temperance paper puUllsucu III " ooAIhS .ou,
D. c., by GEORGE COCHRAN d Co. 1t is .
very neatly printed paper, well edited, and
filled with excellent selections, and is furnished
at the low price of So per annum. Printed
at the Seat of Government, it ought to COM
mand an extensive circulation throughout the
country, as it will be enabled to concentrate
more information than if established at any
other point and we are proud to say that the
National City is fast becoming the Head Quar-
tiers of Temperance.


The Gardiner (Maine) Cold WATER FoUN-
TAIN, of last week, has the following notice:


The WAsHlNGToNIAN is the title of a new
Temperance paper, which has reached its
fourth number, at the Capitol of our country.
4 1t is in favor Of the law, as last resort, and
conducted with ability and spirit, by George
Cochran & Co. 1t finds weekly welcome to
our table. We hope that when the servants
of the people 60 to Washington, it will keep
an eagle eye upon them, and inform the coun-
try of their temperance latitude, while absent
from their constituents. We hope it will also
pour the light of truth into that national drunk
ard manufactory--th doggery for the especial
accommodation Of Members and Senators
under the Capitol; which the officers of the
House had not the moral courage to clear
away, though there was law to that effect.
Pour forth the light brother Washingtonian.


Other papers containing notices have been
destroyed, SO our brethren in the cause will
excuse their not appearing.
