ADVERTISING DEPARTMENT.
A limited space in our Magazine is devoted to Advertisements, for which our low rates and large circulation make its pages specially valuable. Our readers are among the best in the country, having an established character for integrity and thrift that constitute them valued customers in all departments of business.
To Advertisers using display type and Cuts, who are accustomed to the “RULES” of the best Newspapers, requiring “DOUBLE RATES” for these “LUXURIES,” our wide pages, fine paper, and superior printing, with =no extra charge for cuts=, are advantages readily appreciated, and which add greatly to the appearance and effect of business announcements.
We are, thus far, gratified with the success of this department, and solicit orders from all who have unexceptionable wares to advertise.
Advertisements must be received by the TENTH of the month, in order to secure insertion in the following number. All communications in relation to advertising should be addressed to
J. H. DENISON, Adv’g Agent, 56 READE STREET, NEW YORK.

Transcriber’s Notes:
Punctuation, spelling and grammar were changed only where the error appears to be a printing error. The punctuation changes are too numerous to list; the others are as follows:
“Libera” changed to “Liberia” on page 223. (expeditions to Liberia)
“obligatians” changed to “obligations” on page 231. (under great obligations)
“Talladaga” changed to “Talladega” on page 251. (Unionville. Cong. Ch., for Talladega)
Extra “(” removed from E.D. Bassford’s ad on page 256. (COOPER INSTITUTE, NEW YORK CITY)
