MILWAUKEE SENTINEL.
Published Daily. Tri-weekIy, Wees ly,
PROSPECTUS FOR 1869.

PROSPECTUS FOR 1862
The LIST Of January will commence new
volume of the SENTINEL. The past wear has
been ore of severe trial to newspapers while
the demand for news has increased. the means
of support, or. at least. the sources of profit,
have been materially dim nished. The pro-
prieturs of the SENTINEL take pleasure in ac-
knowledeing that their efforts to keep pace
| with events in these stirring times have not
been unappreciatcd. aud the SENTINEI. in its
continued endeavors to present its countless
readers with the earliest news, and its I'M
swerving advocacy of the Union and Consti-
tuition have been acknowledged and sustained
in liberal manner. t
In making preparations for the new volume,
VIE shall enlarge our facilities for obtaining
important war news. and continue, as hereto
fore, to make the Daily. Tri- W eeily, and
Weekly epitomcs of the times.
The eagcrnt IS of the public To obtain the
latest information from the seat Of war. and
the anxiety of the many thousands. WHO have
relations and friends in the Union army, to
hear frore the different regiments, have induc-
cd us to make arrangements for ample cores
pondence from all the different points at
which troops from the west may be-stationed.
The SENTINEL, as heretofore. il is hardly
necessary 10 say, will be the firm supporter Of
Republican principles, the fearless opponent
of Local and national wrong. and the medium
of expression for the Mechanic, the Agrcul
turist, and the Merchant.
