The Proprietor of the Sr.sTiS.ltAle takes this op.
polo may of addressing himself to the advertising
part of the Community, ;Nov of whom are little
acquainied with the *nature and extent of the dr-
cuiption of Newspapers, and who, from long habit
pr otherwise, iften prefer those of small drcula-
lion, to others that ore very-extensive. It would
be a painful task to point oat the exact number of
Joacnal printed in London, but it might be
odnintageous to those who have property to dispose
of, either by PUBLIC SALE or PXIIATZ CON-
?It 4CT, to make themselves acquainted with it.
of !we there has been a complete change in the
eviem of Newspapers. During the last ten
years the goening Papas hove obtained great
Circulations and, in many instances have sup-
planted the Morning Papers ; they arc, in fact,
now generally read, both in Town and Conn-
try, avec:idly in Reading-Rooms, Hotels, Cof-
.ferr !louses, and Poblie-llouses, where the
,F no' px.IN is almost universally taken in, and,
upon a moderate computation, has not less than
l'wenly Thousand IPaders in London, exclusive
of the Country.

Mr. Lorzu. has so wish to injure the property of
!others, :oho have risked their fortunes in a fair
and konourabk way; but it if much to be lament-
ed that, of late years, several Newspapers have
peen established by JOINT Srocsc COMP-IN lES,
pr rather by destructive Combinations contrary to
every principle of low sad justice, and which, at
no distant period, it is to be hoped, mill be cont.
islcicly abolished.
