The Best Family Paper
that is published in this country, from its
never containing anything that would
offend the feelings of any one, either in
q religious or political sense, or that
could not b. read at any Rrcsids without
objection from the most fastidiOhs.
The circulation of the Saturday Even
ing Post, through not quite 90 large

is not, like that Of some of them, tluctu-

SURE, SOLID AND SUBSTANTIAL,
based upon the intrinsic merit of the M

traneous influences, snch a. the popnlari-
ty Of individual writer's, &c.
