To THE PuBMc.--The Daily and
Weekly COURIER has a circulation in
this city alone ofover eight hundred,
which is about as much as tho total
circulation of all the other papers in
the county put together. 1t goes
into the houses, and is daily and
weekly read by our very best people,
irrespective Of party, many Of them
having been taking IL for over
twenty-five years, 1t therefore
furnishes an inva;uAble medium for
I'D advertisements, which are inserted
at very liberal rates. We are thank
full to the public for their liberal sup
port in the way of advertising and
subscriptions; and hope to continue
making the CouRrla worthy Of. their
support, and moro able from timo 70
time TO return them tenfold for their
patronage. The fall trade is just
commencing, and we have torespect-
fully suggest to our business men, the
propriety Of sending in, and revising
their advertisements at an early day.
