required to reimburse them for their great outlay.

M-Row, LONDO:

THE MORNING CHRONICLE having, at the close
of .lait year, passed into the hands of a new Proprietary,
is now conducted under an entirely new management.

During nearly a Century, Tl[ MORNINgi CHRONICLE
has been the steadfast advocate of Liberal principles and
enlightened views ; always ready to support the Statesman
whose measures were calculated to promote the general inter-
ests—never the tool of Party.

Faithful to its old creed, considering judicious amelioration
to be the best Conservatism, THE MORNING CHRONICLE
earnestly supports our venerable Constitution in its essential
principles—principles none the less imi4ortantin their practical
efficacy beeause brought into harmonious concurrence with th
genius and tendencies of the age.

- Every department of this Journal has been remodelled. Its
Political Information is derived from unquestionable sources ;
and whilst it keeps its readers conversant with all important
occurrences, political and social, both at home and abroad—the
lighter, but not unimportant, claims of Literature and Art are
equally represented in its columns.
The constant aim of the present Conductors of THE MORN-
ING CHRONICLE is to make it an organ of influence amongst
Statesmen and public men of all denominations; and whilst
presenting a faithful reflex of the events and feelings of the
day, not to lose sight of the permanent interests and prospec-
tive destinies of society. mwf

el ARLISLE PATRIQT.—WeekIy : Friday and Satur-
k) day, in eight pages, 48 columns. The largest Paper in
the North of England. Stamped sheet, 4d. ; unstamped ditto,
3d. Allowance for payment in advance. . _

Conservative. Established in 1815. Circulates in-Cumber-
land, Westmoreland, Noithumberland, Durham, North Lan-
cashire, and to a considerable extent in the South of Scotland.
The distinguishing, features of this journal are originality,
copious reports of public proceedings, early political intelli-
gence from authentic and influential sources, and assiduous
attention to local news.

The Patriot is largely patronised in the wiper walks of lifo,
by the clergy, professional men, and, in fact, by persons engaged
in every kind of pursuit; having an extensive advertising con-
nection, its large and varied circulation enabling

it to do ample

justice to all. •
Its Conservatism, though decided, is not exclusive. The
'coluinns of the Carlisle Patriot are, and have ever been, open
to all persons, and Parties having any pretensions to address
the public on local or general topics.
Printed and published by Robert Perring and Henry Scobell
Perring, at the :Patriot Printing-office, Carlisle, where orders
and advertisenieuts are received ; ani by all the regular agents
in London; Dublin, Edinburgh, Liverpool, Manchester, Leeds,
Birmingham, and in every town in the peculiar range of its
distribution.

CA T Ji 0 LIC NEWSPAPER
FOR LANCASHIRE.

ON S TURDAY, THE FIRST OF OCTOBER,
Will be Published, the First Number of the
LANCASETRE FREE PRESS,

AND CATHOLIC NEWS."

EDITED BY

STEPHEN

MEANY,

Late of the Liverkool Journal and Daily Post; previously
Assistant Editor and Chief Reporter of the Dublin Freeman's
Journal ; and, in succession, Editor of the Irish Tribune, and
....Droflieda Argus, .

The want of a Cathblie journal in Liverpool and the great
towns of Lancashire has long been felt and deplored. Whilst
every other interest in the community is adequately represented
at the press, it is sadly true that the Catholic people have no
special organ—that their public spirit finds no voice—their
principles no exponent—their social and political rights no
defender.

;Lancashire has justly been termed the great centre of Catho-
licity in England ; and yet all Attempts at establishing a
Catholic journal in the county haire heretofore proved failures.
The cause of.these failures it is beside the present purpose to
inquire ; they may have resulted from want of capacity, or from
want of.capital, or from a non-appreciation of the true mission
of a Catholic Press ; but assuredly, the numerous institutions
around us, devoted to religion and educati
the vohmtary contributions of the Catholic
they cannot be attributed to a want of a Catholic •public spiri
Recognising the want, and feeling convinced that the Catholic
people of Liverpool, and of Lancashire generally, will support
a journal devoted to the advocacy of their rights, and the de-
fence of their principles, the Editor of the " LANCASHIRE FREE
PRESS " enters the field, resolved to make the proposed journal
a thoroughly independent organ of Catholic interests—not to
permit it to be the slave or the sycophant of party or faction,
and to base his hope of success solely oa the condition of de-
serving it

Tected by
Itest that

" u E LAxasulat FREE PRESS" will honestly and fearlessly
advocate Catholic interests at home and abroad ; all questions
of local and general importance shall be discussed on the
broadest grounds, and with calmness and forbearance to those
who may dissent from its views. The triumph of its principles
shall be sought to be obtained only by appealing to the under-
standingrthe reason, and the moral feelings ofits readers. No
vulgar abuse, no degrading personalities shalever be permitted
to pollute its columns; in fine, in all that concerns its manage-
ment nothing shall occur unworthy of its mission, viz., to
vindicate Catholic principles, to instruct, unite, and exalt the,
people, and to claim for Catholics perfect eqnality with all
other sections of her Majeaty's subjects. • _

To the Irish people—those of Irish birth and of ;Irish. race
resident in Lancashire, the new journal
.must be peculiarly
acceptable. Labouring to keep alive home loves and home
memories, it will strive at the same time to inculcate the new
dillies that appertain to the land in which they live. Catholic
Education, and Religious Equality for the Insh people, shall
be strenuously advocated. Upon those Irish questions which
are so misunderstood in this country, "Tim LANCASHIRE I'REE
PRESS" wilt endeavour to create a sound public opinidn---and
seeking to remove the prejudices, national and religious, that,
unhappily exist, thus hasten the solution of the " Irish diffi-
culty.".

therature, Science, and Art shall form prominent features
in the arrangements of: ‘$ THE FREE' PRESS;" and while thus
giving the new jobrnal a high tone, rigid care will be taken to
exclude froin its columns indecent advertisements and reports,
and everything which could impair its usefulness as a CATHO-
LIC FAMILY PAPER. _ .

The important question of Education in alrrfs bearings, and
its intimate connection with the social and moral elevation of
the working classes, will receive from the " LANCASHIRE FREE
PRESS" the attention which the merits of so grave a subject
eminently entitle it to.

The progress and proceedings of the Catholic Young Men's
Society will be amply recorded, and the columns of the
journal will be ever open for the" proper 'discussion of all
questions of Catholic interest in reference to that great
organisation ; thus affording an opportunity of bringing out
the intellect and intelligence of the Catholic young men of
Liverpool, Manchester, and the other great towns of Lanca-
shire. Our Christian Doctrine Confraternities, our Societies
of St. Vincent de Paul, and other religious associations, shall
'receive a due share of attention.

The "LANCASHIRE FREE PRESS" will have correspondents
in London and Dublin, and in the principal towtui of Lanca-
shire and Cheshire, and some of the ablest Catbolic writers of
the day will be numbered amongst its contributors.
_ _

The'commercial and manufacturing interests of Lancashire
will be duly attended to ; and market intelligence up to the
latest hour of going to press will be regularly chronicled.
Appealing to a large audience, and representing an influen-
tial community, it must necessarily have a great circulation,
and will, therefore, be an excellent medium foradvertisements.
The " LANCASEURE FREE PRE/S" will be a full-sized News-
paper of eight pages and forty-eight columns. It will be pub-
lished every Saturday in Liverpool, Manchester, Preston,
Blackburn, Wigan, Warrington, St.. Helen's, and other towns
of Lancashire, and will be delivered at the residence of sub-
scribers for. 13s. per annum; stamped, 17s. 6d. ; single copies
procured from newsvenders, 3d. each.
