CIRCULATION OF "STAR," OVER 10,600 DAILY. A S a guarantee to Advertisers, who have ■**■ a right to know what they are paying for, we have made a practice for some years past of submitting our books to public accountants of the highest reputation for the purpose of making an independent audit of the circulation. The audit for the last six months of 1885, just completed, shows that the circulation is still steadily increasing, and the nightly issue—the number actually' published in the town and country, after deducting returns—reaches the extraordinary total of 10,600 copies daily. We append the certificate of Messrs John Milne and J. Waymouth.
