What is said of The World.

From the Omaha (Neb.) Herald.

It is now known everywhere as not only a first-rate newspaper, but as the organ of some of the most candid and intelligent discussions upon the great questions of American politics ever printed. No journal has taken more pains to accumulate interesting facts bearing upon these subjects, and none has used them with more vigor in the advocacy of policies which, when the mists of passion have cleared away, must be controlling in this country.

From the Niles (Mich.) Republican.
From the Democratic stand-point, the New
York WORLD is by far the ablest, best, and most
dignified paper in this country.

From the Carthage (Mo.) Banner.

We can recommend this paper to every Democrat as one of the ablest and best exponents of Democratic principles, now published. In short, we hardly know of a newspaper that, is more outspoken and opposed to the present administration of National and State affairs and Republican politicians than the WORLD. As a newspaper it cannot be excelled.

From the Hartford Evening Post, January, 1873. The New-York WORLD, which is said to be more prosperous than ever, has greatly improved its appearance by discarding big type in the headings of its news items and general articles, 66 preferring to use the space for news and matter the reader is anxious to have, rather than deprive him of it for the purpose of making a little cheap sensation."

From the Cassville (Mo.) Democrat.

If any of our readers want a reliable paper from New-York, they ought by all means to send for the WORLD.

From the Oconomowoc (Wis.) Times. It is everywhere recognized as the ablest Democratic journal in America, and in general news is conceded among the best. We regard it and its opinions as deserving first consideration, and commend it to the favor of the public.

From the Carroll (Iowa) Herald.

In presenting the prospectus of the New-York WORLD, we can vouch for its being the ablest representative of the Democratic party published in the United States. It is also reliable and complete as a newspaper, and in this respect is not excelled by any other publication. By reference to the terms, it will be seen that the Weekly WORLD is furnished to clubs at a very low rate.

From the Winterset (Iowa) News.

As a medium of Democracy, it is superior in ability, and as a standard for news we think it far superior to any paper in N. Y. City. It still clings to the old Democratic name; and will not yield to the disruption of the good old name. Those desiring a paper as far east as New-York, can not better themselves by subscribing for any other paper than the New-York WORLD.

From the Danville (Ind.) Indianian. Situated as it is in the focus of civilization and centre of intelligence, it is the most powerful organ of Democracy, and has had for many years as its opponent no less an antagonist than Horace Greeley. Manton Marble, its editor, has invariably had the best of the argument between himself and the Sage of Chappaqua on the tariff question.

From the Dakota (Iowa) Independent. Those who want a good, reliable newspaper, embracing almost every variety of news in the several departments, with discourses upon all topics of interest, political and otherwise, by the ablest writers in the country, should send for the New-York WORLD, the leading Democratic paper of the country.

The vote returned by the regular (Warmoth) Board of Canvassers is given for Louisiana and that returned by the Secretary of State of Arkansas for that State, for 1872. The number of citizens in the several states, entitled to vote, according to the census of 1870, was 8,307,305. The actual vote in 1872 was 6,457,315, and therefore, allowing for the increase in population in two years, it is evident that over 2,000,000 citizens entitled to vote did not vote for President in November, 1872.
