more than seventeen years old, which was the
first journal in the world that appeared regu-
larry on an imperial eight sheet at so low a
price as two ccl:ts, and which has attained the
unparalleled aggregate of more than 200, 900
subscriptions, respectfully solicits it's share of
the new patronage which the Metropolitan
Press is henceforth constrained, at s. heavy
| weekly cost, to deserve. 1t asks especially the
patronage and active favor the Republicans-of
| those who hate all forms of oppression, and
desire that every rational being shall be free to
employ his facv lilies in such innocent manner
as he shall deem best-of those who would ex-
tend Liberty and limit Slavery-but it further

Within thepresent year. 7 II Il TRIBUNE
has provided itself with a new and faster Press
at cost of:$30, 900, merely that some Of our
subscribers may receive their papers u mail
earlier than they otherwise might do. With
correspondents at the most iinE ortant points
throughout the civilized! world, and staff of
writer's chosen from among the best in the
country, we believe that even those who dis
like the politics of OUR sheet concede to it frank

maintaining them. We appeal, then, to those
who believe that an increased circulation of
The Tribune would conduce to the political,

lie, to aid us in etfecting such increase. As
we employ no travelling solicitors of subscrip-
tons. We ask our present patrons in every To-
cality to speak to their neighbors and friends
in our behalf; we shall gladly receive from any
read a specimen copy Of one Of our editions,
and shall be particularly grateful to those who
may send us such names from post offices al

additions may thus be made to our circulation
shall be paralleled by increased efforts and
expenditures to make our issues more valuable
and useful than they have hitherto been
