THE CINCINNATI GAZETTE:


DAILY, SEMI-WEEKLY, AND WEEKLY.


As a newspaper, the Daily Gazette is not surpassed by any publication in the United States. It covers the entire field of News, Literature, Commerce, Manufactures, Agriculture, and Amusements, and occupies it fully. Matter coming under these heads, not found in the Gazette, will not be worth reading. In its Editorial Department, the Gazette has all the excellence that a variety of first-class talent can impart to it.


TERMS OF THE DAILY :


By mail, per annum. $12.00


do. for six months 6.00


THE SEMI-WEEKLY GAZETTE.


This paper is printed on Tuesday and Friday of each week. It is the same size of the Daily and Weekly, containing thirty-six full columns of reading matter. Most of the reading matter prepared for the Daily and Weekly will be printed in this edition. Persons who desire a paper oftener than once a week, but do not need a daily, will find this the cheapest and best paper published anywhere.


TERMS OF THE SEMI-WEEKLY :


One copy (104 Nos.). $4.00


An extra copy will be sent to the getter up of each club of ten and upward.


The Weekly Gazette contains more reading matter than any other newspaper published in the United States. Having no great political battles to fight during the year, we shall have more space for general and miscellaneous reading. This will be occupied, in part, by articles under the head of PERSONAL RECOLLECTIONS, one of which will be published weekly. These will be written by eminent men in vari- ous parts of the West, who have already been engaged for that purpose. Our authors have been selected from the various professions, including Ministers, Lawyers, Politicians, Farmers, Merchants, and Editors. Each article will have attached to it the name of the writer. The gen- tlemen whose services have been secured occupy high positions, and have made for themselves national reputations.


Other Departments, including Editorial, News, Commercial, Correspondence, Agricultural, and Miscellaneous, will be carried to the standard of excellence. Important news transpiring at home or abroad will be published in the Gazette from three to six days in advance of Eastern publications.


TERMS OF THE WEEKLY : $2.00

Appletons' Journal.


APPLETONS' JOURNAL is published weekly. It consists of thirty-two quarto pages, each number illustrated, or accompanied by a Pictorial Supplement. It is devoted to popular current Literature, an organ of advanced opinion with respect to all the great interests of society, of popular Science in its best sense, and of Art.


The department of Literature embraces Fietion, in the form of both serial novels and short stories; Essays upon literary and social topics ; Sketches of travel and adventure; Discussions upon art, books, and kindred themes ; Papers upon all the various subjects that pertain to the pursuits and recreations of the people, whether of town or country ; and Poems by our foremost poets.


A distinctive feature is a fuller treatment of Science than is preva- lent in popular journals. In this branch the publishers have secured the services of the ablest and most authoritative thinkers. -


Illustrations form an important feature in the plan of the JOURNAL. They usually consist of either an Illustrated Supplement on some popular theme, a Steel Engraving in the best style of the art, or a large Cartoon engraved on wood-those on steel, and the cartoons, consisting of views of American scenery by our most distinguished painters.

The effort of the Editors and Publishers of the Religious Journals of this city, to build up a first-class Printing Establishment, has been so far successful that they have erected another five-story brick build- ing in addition to that occupied in 1868.


The policy of charging low prices has been vindicated by our expe- rience thus far, as profitable to the Company and satisfactory to our patrons.


Our Book and Jobbing Departments are liberally supplied with all that is requisite to execute large amounts of work neatly, tastefully, and promptly.

"A LIBRARY IN ITSELF."


CHAMBERS' ENCYCLOPAEDIA


A Dictionary of Universal Knowledge for the People.


TEN ROYAL OCTAVO VOLUMES, of over 800 pages each, illus- trated with about 4,000 engravings. Price in library binding, $50.


The design of this work is that of a DICTIONARY OF UNIVERSAL KNOWLEDGE FOR THE PEOPLE-not a mere collection of elaborate treat- ises in alphabetical order, but a work to be readily consulted as a DICTIONARY on every subject on which people generally require some distinct information. Commenced in 1859, the work is now brought to a close in 1868, and the Editors confidently point to the Ten vol- umes of which it is composed as forming the most COMPREHENSIVE- as it certainly is the CHEAPEST-ENCYCLOPEDIA ever issued in the Eng- lish language.


" Upon its literary merits, its completeness and accuracy, and the extent and variety of its information, there can be only one opinion. Art and science, theology and jurisprudence, natural history and metaphysics, topography and geography, medicine and antiquities, biography and belles-lettres, are all discussed here, not in long treat- ises, but to an extent sufficient to give requisite information at a glance, as it were. Its fullness upon American subjects ought to recommend it especially in this country ; and its low price makes it one of the cheapest and most accessible works ever published.


>Copies of the work will be sent to any address in the United States, free of post- age, on receipt of the price. J. B. LIPPINCOTT & CO., Publishers, PHILADELPHIA.
