all true republicans for the triumphant success of
many Of their cherished principles and measures
While heartily rejoice at the triumph of the prn-
cples which il has been constant effort to adyo-
cate and defend, and from which no prosperity, no
adversely, can swerye us; cannot be unmindful
Of the attitude in which placed by recent
vote of both houses Of Congress;-we allude to the
contemplated withdrawal Of their patronage from
the newspaper press. To this decision we cheer
fully bow, sensible are of the patriotic motives
which have led to it. But trust that this decision of
Congress increases rather than diminishes our
claim to the support Of higher power--that ofihs
people, and to them confidently appeal to aid US,
by their patronage, in sustaining at the seat of gov
ernment Journal that is inhexbly devoted to their
interests and the true interests Of the country.


IL is known to every one that the chief source Of
sustaining newspaper Is not the magnitude Of its
subscription list so much the advertising patron
age which may be bestowed upon il. In large
commercial cities, indeed, the latter is usually the
coneomitant Of tho former as il becomes the OBJ
vious interest Of mercantile men to advertise in
those papers which are the most extensively eircu-
lated. Washington, however, is differently situ-
ated. Deprived Of the advertising patronage Incl
dent to mercantile community, and burdened with
peculiar and enormous expenses which are noe
elsewhere incurred, nothing but very long list Of
subscribing patrons can sustain paper in useful
ness--if, indeed, even in existence. The proprie-
tors OF the "Union" have hitherto spared no pains.
and no expense, to make their paper worthy of the
metropolis and worthy Of the support Of that great
party under whose banner they are enlisted In
publishing the most full and ample debates Of the
two houses OF Congress- il is believed ever before
attempted on this continent in a daily newspaper,
they have secured the services of the best reporters
which the country afforded, but at the enormous
cost ofsl2OOO or $4,000 per year. Their exten-
sve foreign and domestic correspondence is another
large item Of expense, but the instructive useful
ness of which is SO highly commended and appre-
ciated as to justify almost any outlay to attain it.
Sui, II must be evident that these heavy expenses
cannot be borne, unless the subscription list is COM
mensurate to the undertaking; and although wo can
boast OF $1,000 subscribers, (including daily, tn
weekly, and Seekly yet this list must be still con-
s'derably enlarged to enable the proprietors Of the
"Union" to sustain all its usefulness and to insure
them against pecunary loss. Invoking, then,
again, the aid and support Of all true friends of re-
publican government, and pledging ourselves to re-
neWed efforts in the cause Of the glorious principles
we cherish, We offer the following proposals.:


The "Daily Union" will be published, as here
tofore, at $40 per annum, payable in advance. Its
character hitherto has been almost exclusively polt.
ical. We purpose in future to devote portion of
It's columns to domestic news Of general interest,
and to miscellaneous literature, which, without i'm
pairing its political influence may render il the more
acceptable to an extended class of readers.


The e"Semi-weekly Uniono will be publish
Ct very Monday and Thursday, during the recess
Of Co,.sr"ss, at IS per annum. This contains all
he matter sortained in the "Daiiy U,piom," except
local advertisements. During the sessions of Con-
gress three numbers, instead of two, will be issued,
without any extra charge to subscribers.


Enlargement of the weekly Union.


The "Weekly UniOn' is issued every Sarur
day. and as arrangements are in progress to enlarge
1t to near double Us present size, shall soon be en-
abed to give nearly every article which may appear
IN the daily and sem-weekly editions, at the ex-
tremely low rate Of 80. We propose also to give.
in this edition, complete synoptical summary of
the proceedings in both houses of Congress-thus
rendering the weekly Union" most valuable





But, to remunerate us for this enterprise, an exten
sive subscription list is absolutely Indispensable


Congressional Register.


In addition to the foregoing, we have resolved to
publish during the sessions of Tho national leeisa
ture Congressional Register" to be issued week.
y, and to contain FULL REPORT of the daily pro-
ceedings and debates of both houses Indeed, the
which we have made with the very
best corps of reporters will enable us to give even
more full and extended reports than we have pro-
duced during this session, superior as we claim
them to be to any preceding ones. The Register
will be made up from the daily reports in the
"Union," carefully revised by an experienced edi-
tor, and will constitute a complete and authentic
record of the session. An appendix will be added,
uniform with the Register, and to be sent gratui-
tously to subscribers, comprising list of the acts
passed during the session, with synopsis of their
contents, and reference, when necessary, to pre-
vous legislation. This will form the most COM
pete history of the sessions of Congress, and will
be furnished at the low price of sEvENrY-rvE CENTS
for the next session. ...-


~ PosTMAsrERs are authorized to act as our
agents; and by sending us five yearly subscribers,
with the subscription money, for either the Daily,
SENT Veeky, or WeeEiy VIII De entitled to one copy
of the same edition as they furnish US subscribers
