THE GAZETTE FOR 1879.

The Baltimore Gazette 10 daily newspaper
which Appeals TO the public solely on its merits
as q journal Of the dag. II is q compendium Of
news at home and abroad, each event being writ
ten prepared and edited according 20 IT'S relative
importance Not line appears in the Gazette
which Is not useful or instructive. II essays 10
give the news in q nutshell and at y price in
keeping with the economical demands Of the
times.
The Gazette has opinions and IL expresses them
daily in terse and pointed English. IL is thor
oughly Democratic in its teachings and tenden-
cies but independent ofHll corrupt rings cliques,
or facticus Oligarchies. The Gazette believes
that the principles Of the Democratic party should
prevail. To that end il will labor to place the
Democratic party in power AMI thereby bring
about a much-needed change in the administra
ton of the Government. In Municipal. State,
and National politics, The Gazette will lend iis
aid to the representatives Of Democratic PTinci-
Piles. A great struggle for political mastery is
coming on. In 1880 another battle for the Pres
idency will be fought. The importance Of such
a newspaper as The Gazette in educating, OF. ':n.
izing aud preparing the people for this contest
cannot be over estimated. The News, Editorial,
and Local features Of The Gazette will be thor
oughly maintained and improved during the
year. The department Of Foreign Correspon-
dence has attained q standard uneqnaled in Bal
timore journalism, and as a whole there Is no
daily journal in the country which contains 50
many popular features furnished at such popular
prices.
The Baltimore Weekly Gazette is q folio jour
nal, same size as the Daily, which contains eve
~ week an epitome Of Home and Foreign News,
Charming stories, Entertaining Miscellany, Coih-
plete Market Reports, Correspondence, Editorials
and Family Reading, all selected with care and
siin especial reference 10 the needs ofPeoPle who
are unable by reason Of locatiOnO or circumstances
to take a daily paper.
The Baltimore Daily Gszette is furnished at
Sc per year 20 mail subscribers postage included.
Il is delivered by carriers at IL cents per week
and is sold in single copies for cents.
The Weekly Gazette is mailed TO subscribers
at the rate of 81 per year; six months, so cents.
Price and all things considered, The Daily and
Weekly Gazette are the best papers printed on
the South Atlantic Seaboard, aud We hope dur
ing the coming year to add thousands Of names
to our lists in Baltimore and contiguous sections.
All letters and inquiries in regard 10 subscTip-
