EXTENSION OF PFITSBURGII Bare Chance for good Investments ! TIIE subscriber has laid out, and now offers for sale at reasonable prices and on accommodating terms, One hundred and ten budding Lots, on that handsome level groUnd between Braddock street arid the Monongahela river. They are about non-third of a mile from the city line, and are situated in that part of the first city district which will probably soon be annexed to the city as the Seventh Ward. No pro perty io the suburbs possesses superior advantanges, nor has any heretofore been laid out with so liberal an al lowance of wide streets; Braddock is from one hun dred and twenty to about one hundred and ninety feet wide, and Beelen, Commerce, Brady, Columbus and Water streets all wide avenues. Most of the lots have two fronts, and as they are of various sizes, and will beaold, one lot, with tho privilege of four or five; early apnhcants can be accommodated to suit their own views2d: improvement. l'ersons who desire to build or to make secure investments in property that is sure to advance.M value, and particularly those who intend to erect manufactories, would do well to view these Lots, and exaMine the draft, before purchasing else where. The survey for the Baltimore and Ohio Rail Road and the tail road survey by the State of Penn sylvania were both made alongside of this property, and it is generally cOitsidered that Braddock street, or the ground immediately alongside of it, affords the only eligible route for a Rail Road from Pittsburgh to the East. Coal can be delivered on this propm ty at a much less COO than on the AittgArrty liver, and there is always deep Water at this pal t of the river. E. D. GAZZAM, sug2s-Lf.

PITTSBURGH, FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 19, 1845 Lismn::\ REFRESIBIENTS Dissolution Dissolution Democratic Review GREATLY REDUCED PRICE-FROM $5 TO $3 rEn. AN NUM—SINGLE corY,2s CENTS Prospectus of the next (or 17th) Volume. THE PRICE of the DE.IIuCUATIC ItEVIEw has heretofore been too high—not for its size, colt, and chat °oar, but fur die means of tens of thousands ol readers who would be glad to receive it, and among whom is in highly desirable that it should circulate. Fcr the purpose, therefore, of largely widening the range of its usefulness, and of rnoltiplying the num bers of those to whom it muy be accessibly, it has been determined, simultaneously with the great reduction in the expenses of the postage, to reduce it subset ip tino price also, from Five to only TA ree dollars; and when several unite in AUblCripOUn, to as low as $2 50, or even $2 30 per annum. This very large reduction in the receipts (accompa nied with but a comparpiively small diminution of its expenses) involves, of course, an entire sacrifice of profit upon it, unless compensated by a vast moltipli cat ion of its subscribeis. There will be a , the outset only a small reduction in its number of pages; soon to be restored to its old number, without increase of price, when the anticipated success of the experimett shall justify it. The PORTRAITS OF DIsTINGUIsIIED DEMOCRATS will be continued—engraved in better and mole costly style titan heretofore. The I'osT•GK will hereafter, for any distance, be only five and a half cents; it has heretofore been, for over 100 miles, eightren cents. We look fur an extension of circulation to he reckon ed by fens of lhousanda, as the result ansl compensa tion of this great rtsluction,uf price. Every friend of the work, and of the Democratic principles and cause, is confidently appealed to, to exert himself with an active interest to procure it subscribers; both to extend its usefulness, and to carry it successfully through the crisis of this great reduction of its receipts. Those who have paid in advancs for the coming year, a ill receive it, st the reduced tate, for a year and a half. TERMS HEVEFORW A RD. (INT•RIABLE IN •DYA tiCE.)
