'0 OUR SUBSCRIBERS, TO ADVER-
TISERS, AND TO THE PUBLIC.

THE Union of the True Sun with The Sun, and
other circumstances, have now given us a posi-
tion which no other Evening Journal possesses.
It appears from the Parliamentary returns, that
this Union has placed us at the head, and con-
siderably at the hcad, of all our Contemporaries.
The attainment of this position has not been effected
without very great sacrifices, and still greater
exertions—exertions which the whole of the Pro-
vincial Press has declared to be unparalleled.
We shall not, however, pause here. There arc
other things of importance which have never
been attempted by any Newspaper, but which we
propose to effect.
The private business of Parliament involves property,
and affects interests to a much larger extent than
any of the Courts of Law ; yet there have been
no systematic or periodical Reports of those pro-
ceedings. We intend to supply the desideratum, by
furnishing accurate and daily reports of the proceed-
ings of every Private Committee; so that smuggling
of Bills through the Legislature, often of the most
important character, can no longer take place
Every individual who chooses wily become ac-
quainted with any matter affecting. himself or his
property that comes before Parliament. To Law-
yers—to Members of Corporations—to Joint-
stock Companies—this information must be very
desirable.

Our agricultural friends will not be forgotten. At
present they are dependent for prices either
upon local Newspapers, which arc generally:
published on the morning of each market-
day, and consequently only contain the
prices of the preceding week ; or upon Lon-
don Journals published only once a week. We
propose to remedy this defect by giving daily
reports of every Corn-market of importance
in the kingdom immediately after it takes place;
so that before any farmer goes to market, he
may know the prices that have been obtained,
in the shortest possible time, in his neigh-
bourhood.
Besides the above, we propose many other im-
provements which must contribute greatly to the
advantage of our readers ; but we hare not time
to advert to them. Let us be judged by our
merits.
