Invoking. then, again. the aid and support of all true friends of ! publican government. and pledgng ourselves to re- newed efforts in the of the glorious principles we cherish. we offer the following proposals: THE" "OkiLY UNioN"
 WEI be published. as heretofore. at $iO per an nun. payable in advance. Its character hitherto has been almost exclusively political. We pnrPose iR fstass to devote portion of its columns to do- nestle news of general interest, and to miseeane- literature which, without iTpari0g its political influence Inay render ii the more acceptable 10 an extended class ofreadeFs.
 THE "SEMI-WEEkLT UNION" Will be published every Monday and Thursday, during the recess of Congress. at S5 per aaRum. | This contains all the matter contained in the Daily Uaion," except local advertisements. Du- ring the sessions Congress three numbers instead
 f two will be issued, without any extra charge to subscribers.
 | THE WEEKLY UNION" Is issued every saturday; and as arrangements are in progress 10 enlarge It 10 near d0sbls is present ase shall be enabled to give nearly every article which may appear in the daily and semi-weekly editions. at the extremely low rate of S2. We pIopcse also to give, in this etii;sea, a complete synopticai summary of the proceedings in both houses of Congress thus rendering the week- 1 iy Union" most valuable ehannel of information 10 all classes of country. But, to remunerate far this enterprise, extenslve subscription list is absolutely indispensable.
 We seize this opportunity to add that .ome delay has taken place in putting our paper o press which has prevented is early delivery to readers and consequently circumseribed its circulation. We shall make arrangements to remedy this defect, and we trust that no complaint will be made upon this subject
 In addition to the foregoing, we have resolved to publish, during the sessions of the national legslx- ture s'Coasr Regtster" " to be issued week. iy. and to contain FULL aEPoRr of the daily pro- ceedings and debates of both houses. Indeed, the | arrangements which we have made with the yery best corps Of reporters yEl enable Us 10 give even mDre full and extended rep6rts than we have pro- dueed during this session, superior we ciails them to be to any preceding ones. The Register will be made up from the daily reports in the Union" carefully revised by an experienced esi- tor. and will eoastitue complete and authentic record of the session. An appendix will be added. uniform with the Register. and to be sent graiat- oasly to subscribers, comprising lisi Of the acts passed during the session, with synopsis of their coatents. and reference, whea necessary 10 pre- vioas legislation. This will form the most com plete history of the sessions of Congress and will be furnished al the low price of sEvExrr-FIvE cENTs for the next session.
