JOHN BULL NEWSPAPER

EXTENSIVE & PERMANENT ENLARGEMENT.
?TO meet the multiplied and increasing demands of the
I. the time, this firmly established and undeviating Advo-
cate of the Constitution in Church and State, will, at the
commencement of the New Year, be extended from its pre-
sent size of TWELVE, to SIXTEEN PAGES. This large
additional space will afford room for the variety of matter
now looked for by the Subscribers to a Weekly Journal, and
will make the JOHN BULL a complete FAMILY and
DOMESTIC as well as POLITICAL NEWSPAPER.

This-change will produce no alteration in the long known,
distinctive, and approved features of the Paper. Its Miscel-
laneous contents will be enlarged; but all its leading charac-
teristics will be retained. It has been objected that JOHN
BULL is rather a Political Pamphlet than a Newspaper.
The design of increasing its columns is to obviate this objec-
tion. There will be an addition of General News ; in every
other respect' it will remain the same—the same in its un-
flinching principles, its opposition to unnecessary innovation,
its devotion to the Altar arid the Throne—the same in its
means of ascertaining the feelings which prevail in the high-
est circles—the same in its opportunities of obtaining the
most accurate political information—in short, the same in
all those qualities which have won for it the most distin-
guished support from the hour it was commenced to the
present time—a period of nearly a quarter of a century.
These remaining the same, neither expense nor exertion
will be spared to make the Paper, in every respect, a faithful
mirror of all passing events at home and abroad. In its new
form the JOHN BULL will be one of the very largest Con-
servative Papers in the Kingdom ; and as its columns will
contain ample room for every variety of intelligence, Eccle-
siastical, Political, Agricultural, Commercial, Literary,
Theatrical, Artistic, and Fashionable, arrangements have
been completed to make each department full, accurate, and
perfect.
The first number of the Paper in its increased size will ap-
pear on Saturday. January 7th, 1843. An early Edition will,
as usual, be published in time for Saturday's post ; and the
Monday's Edition (containing the London and Provincial
Corn and Cattle Markets, Commercial and Agricultural
Reports, &c. &c.,) will continue to be published in the Af-
ternoon of that day. _ _ _

The price will continue as heretofore, 6d.—Orders received
at the Office, 40, Fleet-street, London ; and the Paper may
be procured by order through any Bookseller or News-
vendor.

TO ALL WHO HANE CONSERVATORIES, GREEN-
HOUSES, AND GARDENS.

Saturday, January 7, will be published, price Sixpence,

THE FIRST NUNIDER FOR 1843 OF

rrHE GARDENERS' CHRONICLE;
1. a Weekly Record of Rural Economy and General News.
THE HORTICULTURAL PART EDITED BY
PROFESSOR LINDLEY.

Such has been the success of " THE GARDENERS'
CHRONICLE" that it has already a sale far beyond any
contemporary of a like character—a sale which has gone on
progressively increasing from the commencement. This
fact, gratifying as it is from the Proprietors, will only stimu-
late them to further exertions ; AND THEY, THEREFORE,
MERELY REFER TO THE PAST AS AN EARNEST OF THE
FUTURE, and announce for the information of the public
generally the nature of the Publication.
THE GARDENERS' CHRONICLE is, i❑ the first place, a
weekly record of everything that bears upon Horticulture,
Floriculture, Arboriculture, or Garden Botany, and such
Natural History as has relation to Gardening, with Notices
and Criticisms of all works of importance on such subjects.
Connected with this part are WEEKLY CALENDARS
OF GARDENING OPERATIONS given in great detail,
and adapted to the objects of persons in every station of life ;
so that the Cottager with a few rods of ground before his
door, the Amateur who has only a greenhouse, and the Ma-
nager of extensive gardens, are alike informed each week of
the routine of operations which the varying seasons render
necessary. It moreover contains +ery extensive Foreign and
Domestic Correspondence upon Horticultural subjects—
Reports of Horticultural Exhibitions and Proceedings at
home and abroad—Notices of Novelties and Improvements—
in short, everything that can tend to advance the profession,
benefit the condition of the workman, or conduce to the
pleasure of his employer, all accompanied with Woodcuts,
whenever the matter treated of requires that mode of illus-
tration. Replies to all questions connected with the object
of the Paper are also given weekly in great detail. And al-
though the Paper is not, strictly speaking, an Agricultural
Journal, yet it contains full Reports of the Proceedings of
the Royal Agricultural Society, and much valuable informa-
tion upon the more interesting subjects of discussion in
this branch of inquiry.
IN THE SECOND PLACE, that description of domestic and
political News is introduced which is usually found in a
Weekly Newspaper. It is unnecessary to dwell on this bead
further than to say, that the Proprietors do not range them-
selves under the banners of any party; their earnest endea-
vours are to make THE GARDENERS' CHRONICLE a full and
comprehensive Record of Facts only—a Newspaper in the
true sense of the word—leaving the reader to form his own
conclusion and opinions : their object being the elucidation
and discussion of the laws of Nature, not of man. The
reader is thus furnished, IN ADDITION TO THE PECULIAR
FEATURE OF THE JOURNAL, with such a variety of informa-
tion concerning the events of the day, as supersedes the ne-
cessity rof his providing himself with any other 'Weekly
London Paper.
Each year commences a new Volume, and is complete in
itself. • . _ . . _ _

A Prospectus, with List of Contributors, may be had on
application, or by letter, at the Office, 3, Charles-street,
Covent-garden, London.
Parties intending to commence with the New Volume had
better give their orders at once to any Newsvendor.
