Românul August 1881, when it celebrated its 25th anniversary, "Românul" had reconciled with the Brătianu PNL-ists. Made Brătianu's Interior Minister, Rosetti even toasted to the Premier.

The PNL fissures were temporarily sealed, and "Românul" suggested that, given its reform program, "the future generations could never be grateful enough" to the reunified liberal party. The period was one of apparent prosperity.
