Comments:

This family newspaper focuses on issues of social and domestic interest, with articles for the industrial classes. It offers a variety of reading for public interest.
"In politics the Budget will maintain in theory and in practice a course of liberal independence. It will neither be the tool of any party, nor the indiscriminate lauder of any man" (Our manifesto 05 Jan 1861).
Motto: "To Inform. To Instruct. To Amuse." The first issue is not numbered.
