THE NEW YORK LEDGER.
THE GREAT FAMILY PAPER.
All the Greatest Writers Write for il

The reason that the NEW YORK LEDGER has
the largest circulation that it is the BEST PAPER
Why should it not have the More
labor, more talent, more money, bestowed upon
1t than upon any other paper. Its moral Is al
ways pure and elevated. The lea ing Cletgymen OF
the United STATES the Presidents OF the principaI
Colleges, the greatest Poets Wits and Statesmen OF
the country, are among the contributors TO Its col
umns. The reader always gets more than bis
moneys worth in the Ledger. We have always had
the BEST WRITERS, and ways shall have them
cost what it may Whatever we have promised in,
our advertisements heretofore, readers will bea
us witness that we have always Ielfjrmed: and no
ONLY that but great deal more. For instance in
our las Prospectus, we announced story by HEN
RY WARD BERC FIR, which we gave; but we did
not announce HORACE GREELEy's AU1ODioGRA-
PLY, which we now publishng; nor aid we an
nounce the series OF Articles entitled ADVICE TO
Young MEN, BY the Twelve College Presidents
The rule on which the LEGGER is eou iucted is In
get the best OF everything whether il has been nro
missed or not The public recognize this fact; AID u
Is from their desire to cbta tie very best paper
that they give the LEDGER the preference; hence its
unparalleled and nnaPprC ached eircula ion, being
over three hundred thousand copies.
