Encouraged by a large number of our Republican friends in various parts of the ; country, we have concluded to continue ' the publication of FATitEn ABRAHAM as a permanent institution. It will be considerably enlarged and otherwise im proved ; it will continue to be an illus trated newspaper; the very popular and amusing productions of "Prr SCIIWEF- The Democratic editor as 1w appeared FLEBRENNER" Will also continue, and when a Democratic market man called we feel safe in assuring the public that at the sanctum for the latest news—Oct his forthcoming series of letters will be 14, 186 S, 7 o'clock, A. M. quite as interesting as those of the past. The price of subscription will not lie in creased—only $1.50 a year for a single subscriber, with a liberal reward for clubs. We also mean to continue our excellent illustrations. In a word, it will be our aim to make FATTIER ABRAHAM the most popular and original, as well as I the cheapest weekly paper in the country At the close of the present campaign - we will discontinue the paper in all cases, unless renewed and paid for in advance. Those who desire the paper, therefore, I will forward their renewed subscriptions before the close of the campaign. As we will not prepare ourselves with hack num bers, but only print as many as may be needed to supply regular subscribers from time to time. In order to secure the per feet file, from the first number of the new and enlarged series, persons should for ward their subscriptions at once. The enlargement of the paper will also enable us to accommodate our business Frank taking his last Night Cap" friends who desire the benefit of our ex- Oct. 14, 181i8, 11; P.

I= To Correspondents A well written letter from Hamburg was unavoidably crowded out last week. The Copperhead leaders of Reading—Er mantrout, Ralston, Becker, Rightmyer 435 Co—are handsomely shown up, but as the production is now behind time, it is "postponed indefinitely." Under our new arrangement—FATHEß ABRAHAM en, larged—we will be able to afford a con siderable amount of space to such con tributions, and we hope our friends will not hesitate to send them on. The reason a number of communications written for this paper did not appear, is not because they were not acceptable, but only be cause they were crowded out. Gen. Dix in 18611 "If any man attemps to pull down the flag, soot him on the spot." Gen. Dix in 1868 " I see but one course of safety for the country, under existing circumstances, and that is the election of Gen. Grant." AN exchange says that the Democrats might as well try to feed a wild cat butter with a hot awl, as to try to prove from his record that Horatio Seymour is loyal.
