out and has a large open channel, admitting a safe pas
sage for rafts into Big Canouchie and thence to Oge

FFMIH duty of editors of newspapers, fortunately, is

<1 ENTLEMEN—In presenting a list of new prices
Jot tv pcs, some explanatory remarks may be useful
! he former prices were fixed during a period in
which the raw materials were dear, and not easily
to he procured, and it is presumed that they hail
some claim to be considered moderate, as in 1812,
Type were more than three per cent lower in Philadel
phia than in London; and no advance was made on those
prices, during the late war, although existing circum
stances would have justified tlie measure. It was con
sidered that an advance would he an actual loss to the
printers, as the competition in the printing business
had, before that period, arrived at such a point, t hat the
public were supplied with printing, at nearly the mini
mum; and also, that it was probable the prices ot types
would continue some time after the return of peace’ and
recompense for any advantage that was given up. This
has taken place.
For some time past, types have been lowered in val
ue, but notin price, I hey have been sold on long and
frequently uncertain credit, which produces, to the sel
ler al! the effects of reduction ot price whilst to the prin
ter who pays it is of comparatively little benefit. All
the adv antage is in favor of those who ft omise, but do
not pet form, as in truth they get types for nothing, and
the solvent printers pay for them. Another objection
to this mode of reducing price is, that it absorbs the
seller’s funds, and, no matter how industriousQir frugal
he may he, subjects him to all the inconveniences of
poverty.
Men who possess talents, economy, industry and hon
or, w ill sometimes lack money. The characters who
have just claims to those attributes, will rarely be at a
loss for friends, and will enter on business with a more
favorable prospect of success, when assisted by a mod
erate, than By an extended credit, which is equally w ith
intlye reach of a rival, who, with an ardent disposition
for speculation and adventure, may have but doubtful
claims to reputation for prudence.
In order to leave no ground for complaint, it is to lie
understood that all purchasers, since the first of April,
w ho comply with the new terms, w ill he entitled to Ben
efit by the new prices.
Presuming on the long intimacy which has subsisted
between you, gentlemen, and this establishment, I re
quest you will give this an insertion in your papers.
Your’s respectfully,

NILES’ WEEKLY REGISTER
PROSPECTUS.
Firms work is so generally known that little need he
X said respecting its character; hut some gentlemen
having desired a prospectus by which to receive ad
ditional subscriptions, a brief notice must be taken of it.
Niles’ Register has been published at Baltimore
since September, 1811, and perhaps, no publication is
sues from the American press that is more generally
read. It is received in every state and territory of the
union, taken and preserved in all the great departments
of the general government, and complete sets of the
work are furnished to all the foreign ministers of the
United States. It is oftentimes quoted in our courts of
law, and to he found in many public libraries. A mim
her of copies are regularly transmitted to Europe,
South-America and the West-Indies.
The public documents contained in this work would
cost, if purchased separately, more than tw ice the a
mount that is demanded for it per annum; but so much
other matter i got into it that the documents, perhaps,
do not generally occupy a third part of a volume. It is
a history of men and things, most extensive book
of reference ever published in any country—useful as
to the past, and agreeable and interesting for the present
and future.
Its politics are of the old republican school—but strik
ing only at first principles, men are not regarded. The
chief purpose of all its original articles, which are nu
merous, is to raise up a national character, encourage
home industry and support other great interests of the
Iteople, These objects are fearlessly pursued.
The Register has received the most fluttering sanction
of a large number of the principal characters in the
United States, and a volume of approbatory letters, from
high and honorable men, might be published if it were
necessary.
TERMS, &c.
‘■.'iles’ Register is published at Baltimore ever}’ Satur
day, and immediately transmitted, being securely pack
ed, to any post-office in the union; or, if preferred, it
will be delivered in volumes.
The price is five dollars a year, payable always in ad
vance.
Numbers lost or damaged in the mail (which does not
often happen) are gratuitously supplied, the application
therefor being made without expense to the editor, that
gentlemen may preserve their files complete.
The volumes commence in March and September in
every year -being two volumes in a year; each of which
is furnished with a title page and index.
Files from the beginning may be had as follows:
For the 15 vols. or 7k years, from Sept. 1811,
to March, 1819, at per annum; 37 50
extra supplements to vols. 5,7, 8, 9 and 15, 500

Files, in sheets, will be sent to any post-office, at the
cost of the purchaser and risk of the editor, —if bound,
they cannot be so sent, but w ill be shipped for most of
our principal sea ports, at the cost of the editor, but at
the risk of the purchaser. Files are sold only for cash.
Subscribers may begin at what period they please, hut
it is recommended, (so that they may have a complete
work w hile they receive it,) that they should commence
with a volume.
