uIdt VIC n AIIG C~'I< M ~ ~ 4 Il ~
SATURDAY. PONZ'' is not equalled
by any weekly literary paper now exist
ing. It contains full and well digested
account Of every matter of news up to the
hour of printing. This is great deside-
ratum to those who take only single {
weekly paper, and which means less ex- |
tensive than those connected with the es- {
Enlistment cannot accomplish. The q
number of persons employed, and the |
steam-power engaged in the publication Of
this paper, altogether surpasses that Of
any other Of similar character.
