jwttfy the Proprietor in enlarging the Daily
Edition to the size of the Washington Union.
7he States will continue to represent ihe
sound coustitutioual principles of Slatey'
rights which have ever been upheld by the
National Democracy, but it will not be so
cutirely politicul that its columns will inter
eat the politician exclusively, nor so subser
vient to parly as to betray principle at the
command of power, or disguise its convic
tions at the suggestions of expediency.
In addition to the discussion of important
political questions, its columns will be de
voted to the proceedings of Congress, to the
current transactions ol the government, to
geiMßl news, and matters of interest apper
taining to Literature, Agriculture and Com
merce.

OSWEGO STARCH.
(FOR THE LAUNDRY.) '
II AS established a greater celebrity than
has ever been obtained by any othei
Starch.
This has been the, result of its marked su
periority in quality, and its invariable uni
formity.
The public may be assured of the conlinu-
I ance of the h gh standard now established.
I The production is over Twenty Tons daily
and the demand has extended throughout the'
whole of the United Slates, and to foieir.
countries. °
Working thus on a very large scale, and
under a rigid system, they are able to secure
a perfect and uniformity in ihcquality inrough
out the year. This is the great Desideratum
in Starch-making, and is realized now for
the first time.
The very best starch Ihahcan bo made, and
no other, is always wanted by consumers
and while this will be supplied to them by
the grocers, us soon as their customers have
learned which is the best, and ak for it
otherwise they would be likely to get that
article on which the largest profit can be
made.
Rlr. Kingsford has 'been engaged in the
manufacture of starch coritinuotisly for the
last 27 years, and during the whole of the
period, the starch made under his supervis
ion has been, beyond any question, the best
in the market. For the first 17 years, he had
the charge ol the works of VVrn. Colgate &
Co., at which period tie invented the process
of the manufacture of corn starch.
fW Askjor Kmgsfbrd's Starch, as the name
Oswego has rneatly been taken by another fae
lory.
T. KINGSFORD & SON'S
, O SUE GO COJ/N STARCH,
(For Puddings, #•<:.,)
Has obtained an equal celebrity with their
Starch for the Laundry. This articlo is per
fectly pure, and is, in every respeot, equal to
the best Ber/nutla Arrnw-Root, besides hav
ing additional qualities which render it inval
uable for the dessert.
Potato blare It has been extensively packed
and sold as Corn Starch, and has given false
impressions to many, as to the real merits of
our Cora Starch.
From its great delicacy and purity, it is
coming also into extensive use as a diet for
infants and invalids.
