"HE price of the Democratic Review has
III heretofore been too high-not for its size,
cost and character. but for the means of tens Of
thousands ofreaders 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, it has been determined, simultane-
ousy with the great reduction in the expense of
the postage, to reduce its subscription price also,
from Five to Three dollars;a ;and when several unite
in subscription, to as low as $50 cents or even 2,3O
per annum. 'e
This very large reduction in the receipts (accom-
panied with but comparatively small dimnution
Of its expenses,) involves of course, an entire sac
rifce of profit upon it, unless compensated by q
vast multiplication Of Its subscribers. There will
be at the outset only small reduction in its num-
Der of pages to be restored to its old number,
without increase ofprice when the anticipated sue
cess OF the experiment shall justify it
The Portraits of Distinl uished Democrats will
be contnued-engrayed 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. .s-
We look for an extension OF circulation to be
reckoned by tens of thousands, as the result and
compensation of this great reduction Of price. Ev.
cry friend of the work. and of the Democratic
principles and cause, is confidently app ealed to- to
exert himself with active interest to procure it
subscribers; both to extend ITS usefulness, and to
carry ii 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.
