For two years the HERALD has been gradually ris-
ing in importance, and extending in circulation, over
the city and country. The CHRONICLE, my new
evening paper, began on Monday week, with a
circulation larger than that of any evening paper
ever published in New York. In few months II
ss take the place of the whole race of the present
evening papers, which are conducted on the DID, lazy
vicious credit system throughout All these papers
combined form group of newspapers unrlvaled here
or elsewhere
Advertisers and men in business, now therefore,
generally begin to find that this galaxy Of daily and
weekly papers form better mode of giving publicity
10 their business concerns than any other channel in
the CITY or all the other channels put together The
increase of advertising, during the past week. has in
conseouence been immense. Our cash advertising is
now greater than that ofany paper IN the city, and u
will soon exceed them all in every line business The
advertising business s undergoing reform-a tho
rough one The extraordinary circulation ofthe NOM
Ise HERALD and the EVENING CHRONICLE, including
also the weekly papcrs-the avisty with which they
are sought after and perused, make them decidedly
the best vehicle for business advertising in New York
The cheapness of this mode Of doing business is no
small recommendation in its favor. For the same
price subscribers have the advantage Off morning and
evening paper each Of great popularity and crcula-
ton, unprecedented in the history Of the press.
These journals create what journals, no news

species Of enthusiasm in time Of profound peacean
excitement in all ranks Of society rsich sometimes
astonish and amaze myself Our novels. trashy tales
stupid books, sickly monthlies, and all the trash of
modern literature issued by the Harpers and Others
are now beginning to be seldom read or looked at by
the general reader, of either sex. The booksellers
here and elsewhere, have been compelled to suspend
their operations some to break, and all to publish
more books for, adays, there are none to read
them-except few old blue stockings with holes in
their heels. Every body reads newspapers par
tcularly the Herald-or the Chronicle.
My purpose is TO create new, fresh, enchanting
enthusiastic literary age--to encourage literature
founded on induction fact and real fe-to prosecute
a philosophy congenialto the original habits and en-
thusastc temper OF this country. Society has begun
new species OF development in this land The en-
pire OF intellect, through the msdsm Of the evening
and morning paper, has just begun. Fine fancy,
poetic imagery sparkling wit, induc,ive philosophy,
lofty morals accompany and adorn this new deye-
