In issuing their Prospectus for 1856, the propri-
etors of the Post take it for granted, that the pub
lie are already tolerably well acquainted with tho
character OF a paper that has grown strong during
the storms and sunshine of TIlIRTY.FOUR
YEARS Their object always has been, MS il re-
mains to be to publish a weekly paper for the fnmi.
" circle, which shall not only amuse, but also in.
struct and improve, those who may read it. To
accomplish this object, the best articles are selected
or condensed from foreign and domestic periodicals.
and original articles of an instructive character
procured, when possible.
Letters from Foreign Lands; the most interest:
ing portions Of the Weekly News of the world:
Sketches Of Life, Adventure and Character; SeIece
ted and Original Articles upon Agriculture; Ac.
count OF the Produce and Stock Markets; and q
Bank Note List are included among ,he solid infor-
nation to be constantly found in the Post.
But the mind requires a wider range-it has IA
.culties which delight in the humorous and lively,
the imaginative and poetical. These faculties also
must have their appropriate food, else they become
enfeebled, and rs a consequence, the intellect be-
comes narrow and one-sided, and is not able to take
an enlarged and generous view of human nature
and its destiny. TO satisfy these heaven-implan-
ted cravings of our mental being, we devote a fair
proportion of the Post to FICTION, POETRY and
'HUMOR.
Among our contributors in the first two of tho
above Departments, are several of the most gifted
writer's in the land. We also draw freely for Fic-
ton and Poetry upon the best periodicals in this
country and Great Britain. We design common
cling n New Story by Mrs. SouTuwoRTu, author of
The Deserted Wife," Miriam" &C., in our first
paper of January next.
ENGRANINGS, illustrative Of important pls-
ces ana actions, OF Agricultural and other new in
yenttons, with others of q Humorous, though 70.
fined character, are also freely given.
