THE WEEKLY EVENING MAIL.
ITS NOVEL AND ATTRACTIVE
FEATURES.
LIBERAL INDUCEMENTS TO SUB
SCRIBERS.

Those who know anything of the character of
THE DAILY EVENING MAIL, will not need
to BIO told what must be the general character of
a weekly edition largely made up from the
former. They will know that its literary and art
departments will be thorough, kept up to a high
standard, and presenting fresh impartial, and
interesting criticisms upon current publications
and works of art, while giving the late news
and gossip.
The correspondence of THE EVENING MAIL.
is another feature that must be prominent in its
WEEKLY EDITION. In London, Paris, Ber-
lin and Vienna, and in other places in Europe,
we have regular first-class correspondents, who
will give a fresher and fuller summary of news
than is found in any other paper. Our Wash
ington correspondence will be superntended by
Colonel Richard J Hinton, Whose letters to
THE EVENING MAIL have added to an enyia-
BILE reputation worthily won in the service of
other journals. In all parts of the country we
have experienced writers, whose contributions
will enable us to select for THE WEEKLY
EVENING MAIL variety of letters which,
for family reading, cannot be surpassed, and
actually are not approached by those that are
presented by any existing weekly. Our weekly
edition will also be enriched and enlivened by
the contributions of such well-known and regu-
lar writer's for THE EVENING MAIL as How.
