'TNHE price of the DEMOCRATIC REVIEW has here
4 toiore been too high-not for its size cost, and
character, but for the means of tens of thousands
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 multi
plying the numbers of those to whom il may i've ac-
ccssihlc, it has been determined, simultaneously
with the great reduction in the expense of the post
age to reduce its subscr pon price also, from Fire
to only Three doars; and when several unite in
subscription, to as low as 50 so, or even S. 80 per
annum.
Tnis very large reduction in the receipts (accom
panied with but mparativey small dminu ton
of it's cxpcnses) involves, of course, an entire sac
rificc of profit upon il, unless compensated by a
vast multiplication OF it's subscribers. There will
he at the outset only small reduction in its mum
Der of pages to be restored to its old number
without increase of price, when the anticipated
success Of the experiment shall justify it.
The Portraits OF DIsTINaUIsHED DEMocR ATS
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 tens Of thousands, the result and
compensation of this great reduction of price
principles and cause, is confidently appealed to to
exert himself with active interest to procure il
subscribers both to extend its usefulness, and to
carry it successfully through the crisis Of this great
reduction of its receipts.
Those who have paid in advance for the coming
year. will receive it, at the reduced rate, for year
and a half.
