THE BOSTON JOURNAL &
FOR 1870.
THE POPULAR
new ENGLAND
FAMILY NEWSPAPER.

In presenting the prospectus of the Boston
Journal to the reading community, any detailed
enumeration of the many features which have
made il so acceptable in the past is scarcely re-
quisite. Its extended circulation IN New Eng
land has established its reputation as wide
awake, enterprising newspaper, witt every de-
partment so thoroughly organized that the peo-
pie rely with confidence upon finding within its
columns the latest and freshest news of the day.
The same liberal expenditures which have Sc
cured for The Journal. the position which it &C.
cupies as a leading journal of the country, will
be continued, while that industrious application
which the progress of events demands of all
journalists, who desire to meet the expectations
of the public, will not be found wanting. 1t will
maintain its identity as a paper allied to the in
terests of the progressive party OF The country,
presenting, however, impartial and full reports
of the meetings of all political partitS, thus pre-
senting newspaper which in its r{portorial de-
portments may challenge the criticism of men OF
opposing political views.
The Journal Tor 1870 will retain tie many fea-
lures which have made it so acceptable to the
households ofthousanqs in New England. What
ever will add to its value and prove olntsrest to
any class of readers will be given, and the same
promptness which has marked its presentation
of news will characterize its future cotrse.
The News Bureaus of The Boston Jburnal are
established in Paris, Washington, Kew York,
New Hampshire, Vermont and MainL where its
letters and telegraphic matter exclusively for its
columns.
Special Features. Among the new features
which will add to the value of The 6urnal dur
ing the year 1870 will be found
Edward Kings Letters from EuroIe.
Occasional Articles by ''Warringtd."
A Series of Articles by General William Schou-
Ter.
Essays and Reviews by A. 6. W.
Waits from Washington by Major Ben Perley
Poore.
Special Telegraphic Dispatches from al the
Centres of News.
Its Domestic and Foreign Correspondence will
contain the fullest reports of the markets, and
commercial and monetary affairs will receive the
attention with which their importance demands.
Special Correspondents and Reporters will BE-
sent to all points where conventions, meetings
or matters of general interest take place, and by
the freest use of the telegraph the lates news a
the earliest possible moment will be found in the
columns of The Boston Journal.
