more than seventeen years old, which was the
first journal in the world that appeared regu-
larly OH an imperial eight sheet at so low
price as two cents, and which has attained the
unparalleled aggregate of more than Soo,ooU
subscriptions, respectfully solicits its share OF
the new patronage which the Metropohtan
Press is henceforth constrained, at a heavy
weekly cost, to deserve. 1t asks especially the
patronage and active favor of Republicans-of
those who hate all forms of oppression, and
desire that every rational being shall be free to
employ his faculties in such innocent manner
as he shall deem best-of those who would
extend Liberty and limit Slavery-but it fur

Within the present year, THE TRIBUNE
has provided itself with a new and faster Press
at cost OF $4,000, merely that some Of our
subscribers may receive their papers mail
earlier than they otherwise might do. With
correspondents at the most important 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 il frank
ness in avowing its convictions and ability in
maintaining them. We appeal, then, to thoee
who believe that increased circulation of
The Tribune would conduce to the political
intellectual aud moral well being of the Repub-
lie, to aid us in effecting 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 behelf; 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 subscribers. Whatever
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.
THE TRIBUNE is printed on a large i'm
perial sheet, folded in quarto form, and mailed
