PROSPECTUS
For Rer,cing and Publishing a Weekly Paper en-
titled
TME NEW-YORkER.

THE New YoRKER, Weekly Journal of Liter
ature and General Intelligence, was established
by the present Editor of The NEW YoRK TRIBUNE
in March, 1884, and discontinued, or rather merg
ed on the establishment of the Weekly Tribune,
in September, lS4l after having been published
just seven years and half Having now ample
and able Literary assistance, and having recently
extended and perfected our Mechanical arrange
ments, we propose to revise and reissue it on and
after the lst of October, 1916, on sheet slightly
differing in size or character from the old New
Yorker, but at much lower price.
The plan of this paper will combine
l. Original Observation-Disclosures, Poems, etc.
3. Select Luerature-Tales, Sketches, extracts
from new Books, etc.
3. MsceLany-Letters from Europe and different
parts OF our own Country, Statistics, Anec-
dotes, &c.
Hints on Domestic Economy Agriculture, In
ventions Recipes, &c.
S. General Intelligence Foreign and Domestic,
including Political events, Proceedings of Con-
gress, &c. &c.
This last department will be carefully prepared,
and will be as ample and varied as that OF any
other Weekly paper whatever. The extensive
correspondence and other facilities for obtaining
information which we have been years engaged in
concentrating on the Daily and Weekly Tribune,
will enable US TO present early and authentic ac-
counts of all transpiring events through this our
cheaper Weekly, from which Political essays and
all matter of partlzan character wi be careful
ly excluded In fne The New Yorker will be
simply and truly Family Newspaper, of moder-
ate size and the lowest possible price, intended
for such readers as either dislike Political discus
sion or prefer obtain this portion of their intel
lectual aliment through the gazettes of their res
pective localities We intend that no matter to
which rational men ofany Political, Religious or
other persuasion can object shall appear in this pa
per, though large portion of its contents Will ap-
pear also in the Weekly Tribune.
THE New YORKER will be published every Sat-
urday morning, but printed and mailed on Thurs
day and Friday, 50 as reach as many OF Its pat
rons as possible before the Sunday rest OF the
Mails. 1t will be printed on sheet OF hne
white paper, Identical in size and quality with that
of the Daily and Semi Weekly Tribune, (of which
this is specmen,) and afforded to the subscribers
at the low price of ONE DOLLAR year, payable
always in advance.
T,celue copies will be sent year for Ten Dol
lars, or 1iDenty fire copies for Ttcenty Dollars
