Two youths were on Sunday morning drowned off
Lambeth-stairs, while bathing, having ventured out of their
depth, and, as is supposed, sunk in one of the ballast holes
which have been dug in this part of the river.
IMMENSE OCCASIONAL ENLARGEMENT OF
THE DISPATCH—The WEEKLY DISPATCH (established upwards
of thirty years ago, and published at No. 139, Fleet-street)
is well known from its unequalled circulation of Thirty
Thousand Copies Weekly, as the leading Sunday
.Journal.
This splendid success is owing to its uncompromising prin-
ciples. Belonging to no party, having no interests to serve
but those of the public at large, and looking to measures not
to men, the DISPATCH has become identified with the cause of
general freedom, and has been emphatically pronounced The
People's Paper. Notwithstanding the ample size of this Jour-
nal, its conductors have frequently been compelled, owing
to want of space, to omit portions of that great quantity of
original matter in
.the shape of essays, comments on public
affairs, critiques,' letters from numerous correspondents, &c.,
which is always available for the DISPATCH alone; . and
events of great importance, occupying several columns, have
occasionally led to the exclusion of communications highly
important to that cause of freedom, and to those principles of
truth, humanity and justice, which it is at once the pride and
the duty of the conductors, fearlessly to maintain. To
obviate this inconvenience—to extend the useful influence
of the DISPATCH-40 render it still more worthy the pa-
tronage of the public—to evince the gratitude of the con-
auctors for the unprecedented support which has stimulated
and rewarded their exertions—they have now to announce
that they intend, periodically (at least once a month), to
add four additional pages to that already full-sized paper,
without any increase of charge to the purchasers. On these
occasions, the DISPATCH will contain forty-eight columns
instead of thirty-two. Thus, whenever any event of great
interest occurs, either abroad or at home, or whenever any
important measures occupy the attention of the Legislature
and involve the interests of the people, the readers of the
DISPATCH will be presented with an ample report, without
the slightest curtailment of any of the peculiar features of
their favourite journal ; the proprietors being enabled, under
this arrangement, to print an extra half-sheet whenever addi-
ingfdr
ionl space may
be required. An Edition for the country
is published every Saturday evening, and sent, postage free,
