TO ADVERTISERS.

IN the MANCHESTER TIMES a greater degree of
publicity is given to Advertisements than they could obtain in any
provincial paper in the kingdom, with only one exception.
The average circulation of the paper for three months after its esta-
blishment in October, 1828, was

TWELVE HUNDRED, I
and then it stood above about one hundred, and below about fifty of
its contemporaries.
In January, 1829, the sale reached

virrEEN HUSDRID.

and then, of the eight papers published in Manchester, thaw were only
two whose circulation was superior.
In March the sale had increased to
ZIGHTEEN HUNDRED,
and the proprietors were then enabled to say a daily accession of re.
gular subscribers convinces us that every week will bring us nearer to
an equality with the few (not more than five or six) provincial papers
that are before us, and place us at a greater distance from the very
many (about one hundred and fifty) that are behind us."
In June the circulation of the TIMES had reached

TWO THOUSAND TWO HUNDRID.
and the number of its contemporaries still a-head of it was reduced to
three or four.
In the commencement of 1830, the sale had reacned

TWO THOITS4ND FIVE HUNDSZD,

and it was then the most largely circulated paper in Manchester, with
only one exception.
In February, the circulation had increased to

TWO THOUSAND SEVEN HUNDRED,
and the number of provincial papers before it in the kingdom was re-
duced to two.
In March the average sale exceeded

THREE THOUBRED,
and it was then announced that the " Times " was ineontestibly the
most extensively read paper not only in the town of Blanchester, but
in the whole county of Lancaster. Although the proprietor of one paper
disputed this superiority, he did not dare to put the question to rest by
publishing the number he printed, and no one since has ventured to deny
that the " Manchester Times" is, with the single exception of the
." Leeds Mercury," the most extensively circulated provincial paper in
England.
That it will sustain this high rank, and approach still nearer to
the highest, there can be little doubt, when it is stated that the
average circulation of the paper has gone on increasing, and now
exceeds
