The rise and fall of stocks in London or Paris

Of British America, and one inevitable result
of this must be an unexampled community of

through the medium of the Newspaper Press
1t seems hardly possible that thousands should
not henccforth regularly read their own journals,
who have hitherto been content with an occa-
sional glance at those taken by their neighbors;
while many who have hitherto been content
with weekly issue will now require o Semi
Weekly or Daily. In short, Intelligence, al

become indispensable to all.
The NETWORK TRIBUNE, now moro
than seventeen years old, which was the first
Journal in the world that appeared regularly on
an imperial eight-page sheet, at so low price
as two cents, and which has attained the I'M

new patronage which the Metropolitan Press is
henceforth constininad, at heavy weekly cost.

! Within the present year, THE TRIBUNE has
| provided itself with new and faster press ut
ut cost of $50 900, merely that some of our SUBJ
seribers may receive their papers mail earlier
than they otherwise might do. With cores
pondents at the most important points through
out the civilized world and a staff of writers
chosen from among the best in the country, we
believe that even those who dislike the politics
Of our sheet concede to it frankness in avowng
lis convictions and ability in maintaining them.
| We appeal, then, to those who believe that an
increased circulation of The TRIBUNE would
conduce to the political, intellectual and moral
well;being of the Republic, to aid us in effect
ing such increase. As we employ no travelling
solicitors of subscriptions, we ask our present
patrons in every locality to speak to their neigh
bors and friends in our behalf; we shall gladly
receive from any friend lists of those who would
receive and read specimen copy of one of our
editions. and shall be particularly grateful to
those who may send us such names from post
Offices at which we have now no subscrbers-
Whatever additions may thus be made to our,
circulation shall be palalleled by increased ef-
forts and expenditures to make our issues more
valuable and useful than they have hitherto
/ been. $685. ll se Ya tfg
