GAZETTE will extend over the Presidential
Campaign of 1860, which promises to b.
one Of the most momentous and exciting IN
our history. The vital issues of the times
will be subjected to an amount of research
and investigation--an array of facts and ar.
gument--by the Press of the country, never
before brought to bear upon them, and nu
man can afford to deprive himself Of the
means, (Which only a reliable newspaper

and discriminating the stirring scenes and
events Of that great Canvass. To be able

Whatever is of current interest upon every
subject--w we believe tho Gazette may chal-
lengo comparison with any Of its contem-
p%oraries. In point Of cheapness to Clubs,
il has the advantage Of all the largo East
crn Weeklies, being equal to any of them
in size and amount of reading matter, while
the price is not only less to small Clubs,
but no extra charge is made on large ones
for addressing the papers to each individual
subscriber. Under our new Mailing System
subscribers names, With the dates of expi-
ration OF their subscriptions, are stamped
upon the papers by means of printed labels,
being a great convenience to subscribers,
Postmastcrs and Agents. Subscribers may
rely upon receiving the general news thro'
the Gazette from one to two days in I'D
vance Of its arrival by the Eastern papers.
In order 10 encourage the starting Of
Clubs at now points, it will be perceived
that for a list OF ONLY TEN SUBSCRIBERS
the papers Gun be had at ONE DOLLAR
PER COPY. This brings the minium price
within the reach of Clubs at the smallest
Post Offices, and is a facility afforded by 10

sincere thanks, and trust we shall be favor.
