minated VIII DC long ana gratefully remembered by
all true republicans for tho triumphant success of
many of their cherished principles and measures


While we heartily rejoice at the triumph of the Prn-
ciPles which il has been constant effort adyo-
cate and Defend and from which no prosperity, no
adversely, can swervs US; we cannot be unmindful
OF the attitude in which We are placed by recent
vote OF both houses of Congress:-we allndo to the
contemplated Withdrawal of their patronage from
the newspaper press. To this decision we cheer
fuly bow, sensible as We Of the patriotic motives
which have led TO IT, But trust that this decision of
Congress increases rather than dimnishes our
claim to tho support Of higher power--that ofhs
people; and to them we confidently appeal to aid US,
by their patronage, in sustaining at the seat Of gov
ernment Journal that is nhexiby devoted to their
interests and the true interests of the country.


IL is known to every one, that the chief source Of
sustaining newspaper IL not the magnitude Of lis
subscription list, so much the advertising patron
age which may be bestowst upon it, In large
commercial Cities indeed the ter is usually the
concomtant Of the former, as Al becomes the OBJ
vious interest Of mercantile men to advertise in
those papers which the most extensively circu-
ated Washington, however, is differently silu-
ated Deprived Of the advertising patronage Incl
dent to a mercantile community, and burdened with
peculiar and enormous expenses which are not
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 tho "Unon" have hitherto spared no pains,
and no expense, TO mako 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, it is believed ever before
attempted on this continent in daily newspaper,


they have secured the services of the best reporters
which the country afforded, but at the enormous
cost ofsl2,00o or $4,000 per year Their extern
sive foreign and domestic correspondence is another
large item Of expense, but the instructive useful
meas Of which is 90 highly commended and appre-
ciated as to justify almost any outlay to attain il.
STILL IL must be evident that these heavy expenses
cannot be borne, unless tho subscription list is COM
mensurats to the undertaking; and although we can
boast Of $4,000 subscribers, Gncludng daily, tri-
weekly, and weekly,) yet this list must be still con-
sidersbly enlarged to ensbs the propretors of the
"Union" TO sustain all its usefulness, and to insure
them against pecuniary loss Invoking, then,
again, the aid and support Of all true friends Of
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
toforc, at $40 per annum, payable in advance. Its
character hitherto has been almost exclusively po-
ical. We purpose in future to devote portion of
its columns to domestic news Of general interest,
and to miscellaneous literature, which, without inn
pairing its political influence may render it the
acceptable to an extended class of readers.


The "semi- weekly Union' will be publish
.. every Monday and Thursday, during the recess
Of Co.eress, At IS per annum. This contains all


he matter .ontained in the "Daly Unien," 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 Uniono is issued every Satur
day; and as arrangements in progress to enlarge
it to near double Us present azs, shall be en-
abled to give nearly every article which may appOrr
in the daily and semi-weekly editions, at the ex-
tremely low rate of g. We propose also to give,
in this edition, a complete synoptioal summary of
the proceedings in both houses of Congress-thus
rendering the weekly Union" most valuable
channel of information to oil classes of our country
W up IOE uis cHtCTpTlSe, an cXten-
sive subscription list is absolutely Indispensable
Congressional Register.


In addition to the foregoing, we have resolved to
publish, during the sessions of the national legsa-


ure, Congressional Register" to be issued week.
ly and to contain a FULL REPORT of the daily pro-
ceedings and debates of both houses. Indeed, the
arrangements which we have made with the very
best corps of reporters will enabls us to give even
r.lI- II ~ A. L.
duced during this session, superior as we claim
them to be to any preceding ones. The Register
will be made up from tho daily reports in the
"Union," carefully revised by an experienced edi-
tor, and will constitute complete and authentic
record of the session. An appendix will be added,
uniform with the Registers 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-
vious legislation. This will form the most COM
plete history of the sessions of Congress, and will
be furnished at the low price Of sEvENrY-rVE CENTS
for the next session.


H. PosTMAsrERs are authorized to act as our
agents; and by sending FIVE yearly subscribers,
with the subscription money, for either the Daily,
Semi Weekly, or Weekly, will beeniled to one copy
of the same edition as they furnish US subscribers
~ The CONGRESSIONAL REcIsTER will be fur
nshed them the terms.
