 it is known tc every one, tat the chief s0urre Of sassaining newspaper is not the magnitude of its suhscrip,ieu list 50 much as The advertising paiFeR age which may ba bestowed upon it. In atgs commercial cities inerd the latter is usually the conc0ufiiant of the iosmer. 1t becomes the ob- vi0ns interest of mercantile nen to advertise fn those papers which the most exieRsltcty eirci- lated. Washington, however, ls differently situa- ted Drpsived ul the advertising patronage incl dent to mercantile cosnusanty. and burdened witn peculiar and enormous expenses which are not elsewhere incurred. nothing but very iong list of subscrihing patrons can sustain paper tn useful ness-sif indeed evsn in existence. The propFie tors of the hi0n have hitherto spared no pains and expense, to make their paper worthy of the metropolis, and worthy oi the support of that great party under whose banner they are enlisted. In publishing the most full and ample debates Of the two houses of Congress, it is believed ever before attempted on this continent in daily newspaper, they Iaye secured the services o the best reporters which the country aiiotdsd. but at the enormous cost of Sl2 90U or SI5.000 per yeaF. Their exten- siye ioreign and domestic correspondence sanotheF large item Of expense but the instructive usefulness of which is so highly eominenaed and appreciated as to justify almost any outlay 10 attsiu It. Sdi. Ii must be evident that these heavy expenses cannot be borne unless the subscription list IS eommenssF rate to the undertaking; and although we cen he4st of l5 nln zlihser:hers lineinding d8ly, tn-
 weekly, and ueekly,) yet this list must b. still con sderably enlarged to enable the prcpretors of the sUnion to asiain all is usefulness, and to insure thetn against pecuuiary loss. Invoking, then, again. ife aid aid support ol all trae friends Of re- pab.ican governnent and pledging ourselves to re- Bewed efforts in the cause ofthe glorious principles we cherish, we offer the following proposals; .s
 THE DAILY uNlo N" 4 Will b. published, as heretofore, at $iu per an- nun, payable in advance Its character hitherto has been almost exclusively political. We purpose in future to devote portion ok its columns 10 do- nestc news of general interest, and to misceilane oas literature which. without inlpanag its political may render it the acceptable to an extended class. oi readers.
 THE "SEMi-WEEkLY UNtOMnI
 Will be published every Monday and Thursday, during the recess of Congress, at Sj per annum. This contains all the matter contained in the 6 Daily Uaioa." except local advertisements. Du- ring the sessions of Congress three numbers, inscad of two. wili be issued. wthoat any extra charge to subscribers.
 Enlargement of ti,e Weekly Unlon.
 THE WEEKLY uNiONu
 Is issued every saturday; and as arrangements are in progress to enlarge if to near doubfe iis present slse, shall soon be enabled 10 give nearly every article which may appear in the daily aud ssmI-weekiy editions. at the extremely low rate of $2. We propose s.so to give. in this edition, a complete synontical summary of the proceedings in both houses Of Congress thus rendering the .Seek ly UHion'' most valuable channel of information to all classes of our country. But, to remunerate f'r this enterprise, extensive subscription list is absolutely indispensable
 We seize this opportunity 10 add that some delay has taken place in putting paper to press, which has prevented it's early delivery toour readers and consequently cireumscrbed it's circulation. We shall make arrangements to remedy this defect and to obviate this objection. After the present week we trust that no complaint will be made upon this subject
 OorIGRHSsIONAL HEGxsTE1.
 In addition to the foregoing, we have resolved to publis during the sessions of the national legisla. lure, Register. to be issued week ly, and to contain FULL REPORT of the daily pro- ceedings and debates of both houses. Indeed, the wtich we have made with the very best corps of reporters will enable us to give even more iuli and extended reports than we have pro- duced during this session, superior as we claim them to be to any preceding ones The Register will be made m from the daily reports in the ..Uaion," carefully reVisedby an experienced e,i. tor, and will constitue complete and authentic record Of tfe session. An appendix will be added, uniform with the Register, and to be sent gratit. ously to subscribers, comprising isi of the acts passed during the session, with synopsis of their contents, and reference, when necessary to pre- vious legislation. This will form the most com piete history of the sessions of Congress. and will be furnished at the low price of sEvESrr,yivE CENTS for the rex! session.
