THE WEEK LY CHRONICLE.
The Proprietors and Editors of this Paper are desirous, on the

MEETING OF A PA.RLIAMEIIT
so important to the principles of
FREE TRADE,

to call the attention of their Subscribers and of the Public to the claims
of the WEEKLY CHRONICLE as the Advocate of an enlightened
Policy, on all questions which relate to our industrial economy, and
to the pelitleal progress and social happiness of the People.
The Weekly Chronicle has, from the period at which it same into
the hands of its present Proprietors and Conductors, faithfUlly and
firmly supported these principles—seeking at once to carry then out
without violence or personal rancour, and to establish itself in the
respect, not only of its Readers, but even of its Political Antagsuists,
by a strict regard for Truth and Pair Play, on which grounds alone,
as its Editors feel confidant, can any well-intending party be ade-
quately and successfully supported.
As a Newspaper, the Weekly Chronicle will be found to contain
a larger quantity of carefully compiled and well digested reading
matter, than any of its contemperaries; and It has ever given, and
will continue to give, the fullest digests of the proceedings in Par-
liament, consistent with its limits, which are of the largest size re-
cognised by law.
The Importance of this in the coming session must be evident ;
whilst in early intelligence of Political Movements the Weekly
Chronicle will maintain its lead, possessing, as it does, peculiar and
exclusive sources of information, which its entire independence from
personal inflaences and party trammels, enables it to give without
mystification or reserve.
One of the features •f the Weekly Chronicle are the popular
Letters of COTTON TWIST,
principally devoted to questions of Free Trade and Industrial
Economy, and of which a Third Series were commenced with, and
will be continued from week to week throughout the present year.
