The attention of all who may be in any way benefitted by advertising in a first- class, widely circulated paper, is called to the fact that the Norfolk Landmark is published in the seaport city of Virginia and represents one of the richest and most flourishing sections in the South, embracing the Eastern and Tide-water Counties and Towns of Virginia and North Carolina.
Since the foundation of the Landmark by its present Editor, in 1873, its influ- ence and circulation have shown a steady and healthy growth, and during the past year its circulation has increased 25 per cent. over any previous year of its history.
Captain HOPE, the Editor cnjoys a reputation as one of the best informed men of our country and of the journals editorial service we need not speak. The Secre- tary of the Company, Mr. S. S. NOTTINGHAM, one of the most popular and capable young men of this flourishing seaport gives his best efforts and undivided attention to the paper's interests.
We beg to call special attention to the fact that the Landmark gives copious and correct markets, both local and general; weather reports for the day of publication : news from Europe, and from all parts of the Country as furnished by the Associated Press, which covers the North, South, East and West with its agents, and furnishes the latest, freshets, and most copious news. The Norfolk Landmark is the only paper in Virginia (the Richmond Dispatch excepted) which receives the after-midnight dispatches, and this fact need not be dwelt on as it speaks for itself.
TO ADVERTISERS ?
The rates of advertising in the Landmark, enabling you to address this large, wealthy and intelligent constituency, are reasonable. Sample copies mailed free and terms of advertising furnished on application.

Book and Job Printing
DEPARTMENT.
JOHN W. BARCROFT, - Superintendent.
Having lately purchased New Presses and Type, with the pur- pose of making this department as complete as any similar Book and Job Office in the South, we desire to let our friends and the public generally know that we are prepared to do any style of Printing, such as
WAY BILLS,
MANIFESTS,
BILLS LADING, BILL HEADS, STATEMENTS, CARDS, ACCOUNT SALES,
&c., &c., &c.
and in fact any thing in our line from a Visiting Card to a Book in one or more colors.
Prices and Estimates of this department will be found as low as those of the largest Philadelphia printers, and the presswork is not surpassed by Appleton's best production.
Persons desiring printing will find it to their advantage to patronage this office. The publishers of this book take this opportunity of saying that for the special ben- efit of those who have their printing done North, because it is North, that for the same quality of work, they have never had it done so cheaply by the Northern and Southern houses they formerly patronized ; and at the hands of Mr. BARCROFT, the Superintendent, they have received accommodation and politeness worthy of remark.
