DEMOCRATIC REVIEW.

Greatly reduced prlce-from 10 TO 50 a yeai
Prospectus Of the neri (or nm Uoiume p
NHE price of the Democratic Review has
Ill heretofore been too high--not for its size,
cost and character, but for the means of tens at
thousands ofreaders who would be glad to receive
it, and among whom it is highly desirable that it
should circulate. For the purpose therefore, OF
largely widening the range of its usefulness, and of
multiplying the numbers of those to whom it may
be accessible, it has been determii 3D. simultaDe-
ously with the great reduction in the expense of
the postage, to reduce its subscription price also
from Five to Three dollars;and when several unite
in subscrption to as low $50 cents or even 30
per annum.
This very large reductionin the receipts (accom.
panied with buta comparatively small dimnutlon
Of its eXpenses) involves, of cour,e AN entire sac
rifce of profit upon it, unless compensated by a
vast multiplication of its subscribers. There will
be at the outset only small reduction in its num-
Der OF pages; sHon 10 be restored to its old number
without increase of price, when the anticipated sue
cess OF the experiment shall justify it 81.
The Portraits of Distins uished Democrats will
be continued-engraved in better and more costly
style than heretofore.
The postage will hereafter, for any distance, be
only five and hall cents; it has heretofore for
over 100 miles, eighteen cents.
We look for an extension OF circulation to be
reckoned by tens of thousands, as the result and
compensation of this great reduction of price Ev.
cry friend OF the work, and of the Democrati'
principles and cause, is confidently apr ealed to, to
exert himself with an active interest to procure it
subscribers; both to extend Its usefulness and to
carry it successfully through the crisis of this great
reduction of It's receipts.
Those who have paid in advance for the coming
year. will receive it, at the reduced rate for year
and half

1t will thus be seen that when thirteen copies are
orderrd at once, the price is brought down to about
81 80 each. For six months, half these rates.
These rates afford high inducements to agents
and Others 10 interest themselves to procure sub
SC rbers.
The cash system and payment in advance must
be uncompromisingly adhered to. The pastreax-
alton of il has caused an accumulation of not far
from forty thousand dollars of debts due to the
work. Hereafter this must be wholly reformed;
must either the most eminent political friend or
the most intimate personal one be dspleased on ex-
perencing its application, in the soppage of their
numbers, if they neglect this rule the vital neces-
sty of which, at the present reduced rates. must be

the past arrangements with whom, as publisher,
have reached their termination.
