THE NHw YORK LEDGER.
FOR 1868

The reason that the NEW YORK LED
GER has the largest circulation is that it is the
BEST PAPER. Why should it not have the
LARGEST circulation More labor, more talent,
more money, are bestowed upon it than upon
any other paper. Its moral tone is always
Dure and elevated. The rule on which the
LEDGER is conducted, is to get the best OF
everything. The public recognize this tact
and it is from their desire to obtain the very
best paper that they give the LEDGE the
preference; hence its unparalleled and unap-
preached circulation, being over three hum
bred thousand copies.
All our present corps Of popular and emf
nent authors will continue to write Tor the
LEDGER we begin the new year with A ne"
story by Mrs. Southworth the Hon. Horace
Greedy will continue his Autobiography Fan
ny Fern her sparkling sketches; john &.
SAKE his humorous poems Sylvanus Cobb,
.Jr., his entertaining Stories Professor VIII
liam Henry Peck his stirring Novelties Hem
ry Ward Beecher his original Papers; James
Parton his instructive Biographical Sketches;
Miss Dupuy her Dramatic Narratives; Mary
Kyle Dallas, Amy Randolph, Caroline Conrad,
Mrs. Vaughan, their delightful short stores.
VIM. Cullen Bryant, Alice Cary, Ethel Lynn,
DIR. Chas. d. Gardette, Geo. d. Prentice, N.
G.. Shepherd, Emma Alice Browne, Miss
Schultz, VIM. Ross Wallace, their Poems.
A NEW FEATURE OF THE LEDGER.-Ad-
rice to Young UOmcn.-A new feature of the
Ledger, in the beginning Of the year, will be a
series of Twelve Articles, written expressly
for Young Ladies, by Twelve Of the most
Distinguished Women of the United States,
including Mrs. Horace Mann, Mrs. Lydia Ma
ria Child, Mrs. General Banks, Mrs. Horace
Greeley, and Madame lie Vert.
