The most widely-circulated 3-day journal in I re l an d i s THE NORTHERN WHlG,Published in Belfast The latest Government stamp returns show that " The Northern Whig" maintains a high pre-eminence over the entire provincial press of Ireland, and that only one metropolitan 3-day journal equals it in circulation. As an Advertising medium it consequently offers advantages which few Irish journals can afford. The repeal of the Advertisement duty has caused the adoption of a new and very much reduced scale of charges— viz :- Under 10 lines (or 75 words) 2s. Od. Every additional line.... ........... Os. 4d. With a large reduction for second and subsequent insertions. Contracts for Advertising by the year, half-year, and quarter, will be taken on the lowest terms compatible with the extensive and valuable publicity afforded by its large and influential circulation. To London, Liverpool, and Manchester advertisers in particular, it offers especial advantages, by bringing their announcements under the notice of so enterprising and large a section of the com munity. The Northern Whig" contains the fullest and most accurate intelligence on all subjects, and a peculiar system of market prices of every description of produce, which will be found of essential importance to merchants and traders. " The Northern Whig" is published every TUESDAY, THURSDAY, and SATURDAY, with a supplement on Saturday, at the office, 6, Calender-street, Belfast.
