MISCELLANEOUS.
ID Il OS p e CTUS OF THE WEEKLY
L NATIONAL REPUBLICAN.

ID Il OS EGTUS OF THE WEEKLY
NATIONAL REPUBLICAN.
The undersigned commenced, in the month of
December last, the publication, in this city, of
aweekly newspaper called the National Repub.
licdn.
1t is printed on a large sheet, twenty seven
by forty. inches, and is furnished at the low
prices stated below.
1t will contain all the original matter of the
| daily National Republican, with the exception
scribers.
1t will give full reports of the edings Of
Congress, and Of the other departments Of the
National Government.
II will contain all the news of the day foreign
| and domestic, markets, &C., &C., as well as an
original correspondence from all parts of the
country. The miscellaneous department will
receive special attention, and, in all respects,
the effort will be made to establish the charac-
ter Of the National Republican as Family
Newspaper.
Washington being now the central point of
the current military operations, great attention
will be paid to furnishing the readers of the
National Republican with full, and especially
with accurate, accounts of the progress of the
war for the Union.
In politics, the paper will be Republican, sus.
tanning the Administration of Mr.. Lincoln, but
dlscla'ming. however, any pretension to be the
organ of the President.
The is no other Republican paper in the Dis.
trict OF Columbia, or in the vicinity of 1t, and
IL ID believed that recent events have opened to
such paper an important sphere of useful
effort. The time has come, when the actual
administration OF the Government upon Repub
lican principles will explode the misrepresen-
tations which have made those principles 30
dstasteful to the South.
But 1t is not only here, and in this vicinity
that the projectors of the National Republican,
hope to make 1t useful. To the whole country
they offer n journal which will discuss national
politics from national standpoint and which
will never be swerved from patriotic duty by
any overpoWering pressure of local interest.
