MONTHLY POST NEWSPAPER.
Price Twopence.
On the 31st of January, 1844, will be Published,
The FIRST NUMBER of a MONTHLY NEWSPAPER.
under the above title, to be devoted exclusively to a
RECORD OF PUBLIC EVENTS.
The object of the MONTHLY POST will be to give, in a
carefully compiled and a closely compressed form, an account of
all occurrences of interest, taking place in every part of the
world, with the dates annexed in chronological order, so as to
become a work of reference, and
AN EPITOME OF THE HISTORY OF THE TIMES.
A number of events occur in every month of which it would
be useful to preserve some accurate record ; an object, at
present, only to be accomplished by the labour of copying
names, dates, and circumstances, or to be effected, hereafter, by
the tedious process of referring to the cumbrous pages of an
ordinary newspaper. It is to remedy this inconvenience that
the Monthly Post will be established ; and as its price will only
be 2d. per Month, or Two Shillings for the Entire Year, it is
presumed there is hardly a family, or reader, in the kingdom
that will be without so interesting and valuable a register.
The Monthly Post will be handsomely printed on superior
paper, of uniform site with the Post Magazine, and consist of
24 closely packed columns, in a form for binding.
A stamped edition will be published. Parties in the country,
therefore, who may find any difficulty in procuring the
Monthly Post Newspaper, through the agency of a bookseller
or newsvender, or who may desire to receive it with the least
possible delay, may be supplied with their copies, by post, for
twelve months, by enclosing to the publisher, a Post-office
order for three shillings, or thirty-six postage labels.
