TIIE NEW YORK LEDGER for 1858.
THE BEST FAMILY TAPER IN THE
WORLD!
All the favorite writers retained, and new
ones added. Still greater attractions for the'
New Year. The circulation of the New York
ledger is now Three Hundred and Thirty
Thousand Copies, which is sweater than that
of any ten other literary papers in America.
The profits on this unparal
leled circulation enable the
Proprietor of the L E DG E R
to expend sums upon it which
would soon swurnp any ordi
nary publication.
A paper with a circulation
of only a hundred thousand or
so would sink under the ex
penses of the THE LEDGER
in less than six mouths.
All of the old and favorite
Contributors will continue to
write for THE LEDGER a 9
heretofore.
No expenses will be spared
to secure others whose pens
shall be considered competent
to add to THE LEDGER'S at
tractions and usefulness.
Mrs. EMMA D. E. N.
SOUTH WORTH writes only
lor THE NEW YORK LED
GER.
FANNY FERN writes only

GER.

ALICE CARY, Mr*. SI
GOURNEY, ami Dr. NEL
SON wrile lor THE NEW
YORK LEDGER.
GEORGE D. PRENTICE,
JOHN G. SAXK, and all ihe
olher bent writers, contribute
to the New York Ledger.
The LEDGER is devoted
to Polite Literature, Original
Illustrated Tales, Essays, Po
etry, Sketches, Biography,
News, &c. &c.
The Ledger is everywhere
acknowledged to be the best
family paper in the world—
hence its extraordinary and
unheard of popularity.
The Proprietor of tne LED
GER employs the best talent,
and by so doing makes the
best paper in the country.
THE NEW YORK LED
GER is primed on beautilul
white oaper, and is composed
of eight pages, making the
handsomest weekly paper in
the Union. It is published
every Saturday, and sold at
. all the news offices in every
city and town throughout the
country, and is ma ted for
subscribers at $2 per annum ;
two copies are sent for S3.—
Any person obtaining eight
subscribers at SI 50 each
(which isourlowestclubrates)
and sending us sl2 will be
entitled to one copy free.—
Terms invariably in advance.
Address all letters to
ROBERT BONNER,
Publisher of the
NEW YORK LEDGER,
41 Anil St.. New York.
N. B.—Now is n good lime
to subscribe, as Mrs. South
worth's new story, The Bride
of an Evening, will be com
menced in THE LEDGER on
the first of January.
N. B.—No. 2—We have no
Agents authorized to receixe
subscriptions for Ihe Ledger.
Subscribers must always re
mit direct to us, and not seed
or pay any money to any
and Agents.
A high mnral tono characterizes every ar
ticle in the LEDGER. In fact, the names of
its leading contributors are a sufficient guar
antee that it stands in marked contrast to a
class a of weekly publications that have for
60 long a time flooded (be country, but which
foitunately for the morals of our people, are
almost extinct.

Pro*|>ccltis oi" "Tlic States."
Whicli hah been published near eeven
months, has met with such a success as to
justify the Proprietor in enlarging the Daily
Edition to the size of the Washington Union.
'lke States will continue to represent the
sou id constitutional principles of Stales'
rights which have ever been upheld by the
National Democracy, but it will not be so
eniirely political that its columns will inter
est the politician exclusive!), nor so aubser
vienl to parly as to betray principle at the
command ol powe', or disguise iis convic
tions at ihe suggestions of expediency.
In addition to the discussion of important
political questions, its columns will be de
voted to the proceedings of Congress, to ihe
current transactions of the government, to
general nevrs, and mafers of interest apper
taining to Literature, Agriculture and Com
merce.

The Proprietor of "The States" was one
ol the original louriUers of tne Washington

before and since the establishment of that

well wotthy of their patronage.
