gen of its People.
.The WEEKLY CHRONICLE is now printed on superior paper of
the largest size, containing more reading matter than any other Lon-
don weekly paper. Great care is bestowed on the condensation and
arrangement of its general news and Parliamentary intelligence, of
which it gives a much fuller and far more satisfactory summary than
any of its Contemporaries. And thLs it is enabled to do from the
principle on which its contents are selected and adjusted; for while
the Weekly Chronicle will be found to give due attention to literature,
science, the tine arts, the drama, and even to, sporting intelli-
gence, so far as this latter can be said to interest the general
reader, neither sporting, nor any other feature of minor interest, are
allowed to supersede the proper objects of a newspaper—those eub-
jects of breathing, living import to the progress of society, and to the
well-being of the people throughout the whole length and breadth of
Rome and Colonial England. The Weekly Chronicle is the advocate
of extended suffrage—of the ballot—of a shortened duration of Par-
liament—at' free trade—of systematic colonisation—of the education
of the people on the principles of civil and religious liberty—of a re-
adjustment of the revenues of the Irish Church, aed of other measures
of justice calculated to consolidate the union—of peace at home and
abroad—of a repeal of the odious income-tax, with a reduction of the
expenditure ; and not to extend the catalogue, it may be said that it
treats all other public questions hi a kindred spirit and tone; whilst
its means of information may be judged from the feet that it was,
among other instances of early intelligence, the first to announce to
the world the visit of the Queen to France—the determination of the
kievernment to arrest O'Connell and his friends—both which facts
were announced in the Weekly Chronicle for several days before they
were oommunicated to the Government press. The Weekly Chronicle
also announced recently the intended recal of Earl de Grey—a state-
sent which was contradicted at the thee by the whole of the Go-
vernment press, but which the Weekly Chronicle never shrank from,
and which now passeS unchallenged as a fact.
Arrangements have been made for bringing down the news con-
tained in the Weekly Chronicle to a much later date than usual, in
same instances anticipating the average of last year by a week ;- and,
to effect this, every department of the paper has been scrupulously
revised and efficiently re-construct&l. For the convenience of our
friends, the three following editions are published ; and, by attending
to these directions, the substitution of any other edition for the one
preferred, and for which the order should be distinctly given, may be
prevented :-
1. An edition for exclusive circulation in the provinces on the Sa-
turday, marked "N.•onntay Edition."
I. An edition for circulation in London ou the Saturday, and in the
country on the Sunday, marked " Town and Country Edition."
3. An edition for exclusive circulation in the metropolis and its en-
virona on the Sunday, marked " Town Edition."

/The price is 6d., for which the Weekly Chronicle may be obtained
of all respectable newsvenders ; and by post, paid in advance, at a
Stascription of 16s. per annum, 13s. the half-year, and 6s. 6cl. the
quarter.—Sold by all siewevenders in town and country.--Unite, 1137.
