THE SU n
WEEKLY, sEMI.WEEKLY, AND DAILY.

THE WEEKLY 81 is too widely known
TO require an extended recommendation; but
the reasons which have already given it fifty
thousand subscribers, and which will, we
hope, give it many thousands more, are
as follows.
1t is a tirst-rate newspaper. All the news
of the day will be found in it, condensed
when unimportant, at full length when Of
moment, ..and always presented in clear,
ineligible, and interesting manner.
1t is a tirst-rate family paper, full OF en-
PERTAINING and Instructive reading OF every
kind, but containing nothing that can offend
the most delicate and scrupulous taste.
1t is q tirst-rate story paper. The best
tales and romances Of current literature are
carefully selected and legibly. printed in It's
pages.
1t is iirst-rate agricultural paper. The
most fresh and instructive articles on agri-
cultural topics regularly appear in this
department.
1t is an independent political paper, be-
longing to no party and wearing no collar.
1t tights for principle, and for the election OF
the best men to office. 1t especially devotes
its energies to the exposure of the great
corruptons that now weaken and disgrace
our country, and threaten to undermine
republican institutions altogether. 1t has
no fear Of knaves, and asks no fayors from
their supporters.
1t reports the fashions for the ladies', and
the markets for the men, especially the cattle
markets, to which it pays particular atten-
ton.
Finally, it IS the cheapest paper published.
One dollar year will secure it for any sab
scriber. 1t is not nece ssary to get up clut
in order to have THE WEEKLY Sun al
this rate. Any one who sends single
dollar will get the paper for year.
