We have to congratulate the Colony, and particularly our patronising Readers, upon the arrival of a New Columbian Press, and a large supply of Printing Materials, per the [ship] Denmark Hill, of which advices have come to hand. We were rather apprehensive of further disappointment, which would have been trying in the extreme just at this critical juncture; but now we promise to be equal to any undertaking.
