DEMOCRATIC REVIEW.
GREATLY REDUCED PRICE-FR S. TO 80 PER
ANNUM.
SINGLE cory, TWENTY-FIVE CENTS.

y !. y ~. /.
SINGLE cory, TWENTY-FIVE CENTS.
PROSPECTUS OF THE SEVENTEENTH VOLUME
TIME price of the DEMOCRATIC REVIEW has
i heretofore been too high-not for its size, cost,
and character, but for the means of tens Of thou
sands of readers 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 il may
be accessible, it has been determined, Simultaneous
ly with the great reduction in the expense of the
postage to reduce it's subscription price also, from
.fpe to only three dollars; and when several unite
in subscription to as low so SO, or even TO " 30
per annum.
This very large reduction in the receipts (accom-
panied with bit comparatively small dminuon
of its expepses) involves of course entire sacri-
flee Of profit upon ii, unless compensated by vast
multiplication of its subscribers There will be at
the outset only a small reduction in its number OF
pages soon to be restored to its old number, with
out increase of price, when the anticipated success
of the experiment shall justify il.
The portraits of distinguished democrats will be
continued, engraved in better and more costly style
than heretofore.
The postage will hereafter, for any distance, be
only fue and half cents it has heretofore been, for
over 100 miles, eighteen cents
We look for extension Of circulation to be
reckoned by lens Of thousands, the result and COM
pensation Of this great reduction of price. Every
friend of the work, and of the democratic principles
and cause, is confidently appealed to, to exert him
self with active interest to procure 1t subscribers
both to extend its usefulness, and TO carry IT sue
cessfully through the crisis of this great reduction Of
its receipts.
Those who have paid in advance for the coming
wear, will receive it, at the reduced rate, for yeaI
and half.
