DEMOCRATIC REVIEW.

Greatly reduced price-from 70 TO 10 yeai
Prospectus Of thenert (or l7th) Iohtme
yWSHE price of the Democratic Review has
heretofore been too high-not TOR its size,
cost and character, but for the means OF tens ol
thousands of readers who would be glad to receive
it, and among whom it is highly desirable that II
should circulate For the purpose, therefore, OF
largely widening the range of its usefulness, ana Oh
multiplying the numbers of those to whom it may
be accessible, it has been determined, slmultane-
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 subscription to as low $50 cents or even 2,5o
per annum.
This very large reduction in the receipts (accd.m-
panied with buta comparatively small dimihutioh
of its expenses involves of course, an entire sac
rifce of profit upon it, unless compensated by q
vast MULTIPLICATION of its subscribers. There wv
be at the outset only small reduction in its num-
Der of pages soon to be restored to its old number,
without increase price, when the anticipated sue
cess of the experiment shall justify It. =,
The Portraits of Distins uished Democrats will
be acknowledgement in better and more cosby
style than heretofore
THE postage win hereafter, for any distance, be
only five and half cents; it has heretofore, for
over 100 miles, eighteen cents.
We look for an extension Of circulation to De
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 app reaed to, to
exert himself with an active interest to procure 1t
subscribers; both to extend Its usefulness, and TO
carry il 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 half.
TERMS HENCEFORWARD.
(I,auariably in .Aduance.)
Single copy, $500 Eight copies, $4,000
Four copies, HOO Thirteen " 5000
1t will thus be seen that when thirteen copies are
orderrd at once the price is brought down to about
$2 80 each For six months, half these rates
These rates afford high inducements to agents
and others 10 interest themselves to procure sub
scribers
The cash system and payment in advance must
be uncompromisingly adhered to. The pastreax-
alton of il has caused an accumulation OF not tar
from forty thousand dollars of debts due to the
work Hereafter this must be wholly reformed;
nor must either the most eminent political friend, ,or
the most intimate personal one be dspleased on ex-
periencng its application in the stoppage OF their
numbers, if they neglect this rule; the vital neces-
sty Of which, at the presentreduced rates, must be
obvious to all.
No communications will be taken from the Post
Office unless free of postage.
All communications, both on editorial and pub
fishing business must be addressed hencetorward
to the undersigned. Those relating to the settle
ment of the past debts due the work will be still
addressed to Mr.. II. G. Langley, 8 Astor House,

have reached their termination.

Last Likeness of Genera Jackson.
The admirable Daguerreotype of General Jack
son, taken by Anthony, Edwards, & Co few
weeks before his DEATH has been purchased for the
use of the Democratic Review. 1t is in the hands
of the artist, and will be engraved in the finest
style of mezzotint OF extra size. It most beau
tiul and interesting work, declared by Mr. Van
Buren and others to give more perfect idea ofthe
good and great old man than ary other likeness;
and ought to be possessed and framed by evey
friend who loves or reveres his memory. Those
who subscribe early will receive if as one of the
regular series of Portraits.
