DEMOCRATIC REVIEW.

Greatly reduced price-fTom So to SO year
Prospectus of henert (or nm pof,mle
UyHE price of the Democratic Review has
heretofore been too hgh-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
multiplying the numbers of those TO whom it may
be accessible, il has been determined, simutane-
ousIy 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 subscription to as low as ESQ cents or even 230
per annum.
This very large reduction in the receipts (accom-
panied with but a comparatively small dlmInution
of its expenses involves of course, an entire sac
ritice 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-
ber of pages; to be restored to its old number,
without increase price, when the anticipated sue
cess OF the experiment shall justify it.
The Portraits of Distinl uished Democrats will
be acknowledgement in better and more costly
style than heretofore.
The postage will hereafter, for any distance, be
only five and half cents; it has heretofore, for
over 100 miles, eighteen cents.
We look for all extension OF circulation to be
reckoned by tens of thousands, as the result and
compensation of this great reduction of price Ev.
ery friend of the work. and of the Democratic
principles and cause, is confidently apr ealed to- to
exert himself with active interest to procure II
subscribers; both to extend It's usefulness, and to
carry successfully through the crisis OF this great
reduction of Its receipts. ...-
Those who have paid in advance Tor the coming
year. will receive it, at the reduced rate for year
and half

These rates afford high inducements TO agents

The cash system and payment in advance must
be uncompromisingly adhered to- The Pastrelax-
alton of il has caused an accumulation of mol Tar
from forty thousand dollars Of debts due to the

nor must either the most eminent political friend ,or
the most intimate personal one be dispeased on ex
perienciDg its application, in the stoppage OF their
numbers, if they neglect this rule; the vital neces-
sity of which, at the present reduced rates, must be
obvious TO ALL

Last Likeness Of General Jackson
The admirable Dsguerreotype Of General Jack
son, taken by Anthony, Edwards, & Co. afew
weeks before his DEATH has been purchased for the
use Of the Democratic Review. II is in the hands
of the artist, and will be engraved in the finest
style of mezzotint OF extra size. Itis most beau
tiful and interesting work, declared by Mr.. Van
Buren, and others to give more perfect idea ofthe
good and great old man than airy other likeness;
and ought to be possessed and framed by evey
friend who loves or reveres bis memory. Those
who subscribe early will receive il as one OF the
regular series of Portraits. @ eea
