PROSPECTUS or THE DAILY NATIONAL SKA.
i shall issue, on the 2d day of January en
suing, (he Daily National Era, a Political
and Literary Newspaper.
In Politics, it will advocate the Kights of j
Man, and the Equality of Rights, and oppose
whatever violates or tends to violate them,
whether this be Involuntary Personal Servi
tude, Civil Despotism, Spiritual Absolutism,
Class Legislation, the Selfishness of Capital,
the Tyranny of Combination, the Oppression of
a Minority, or the Exactions of a Party.
It will hold no fellowsliip with the Whig
and Democratic organizations, believing that
the main issues on which they have been ar
rayed against each other are obsolete or settled,
and that they are now chiefly used by the Sec
tional Interest ol Slavery, to impair the love of
Liberty natural to the American mind, and to
subjugate the American People to its rule. Dis
claiming all connection with them, it will yet
sympathize with those of their adherents who
are honestly staking through thein to advance
the substantial interests of the country,although
it must believe that they have not chosen the
better way. >
It will be a supporter of the Independent
Democracy, which holds that the Truths of the
Declaration of Independence are practical; thai
in their light the Constitution of the United
States is to be interpreted; that to them the laws
and institutions anil usages of the country
should be conformed?a Party, whose motto I
is, Union, not for the sake of Union, but for the
sake of Freedom and Progress ; and Law, not
for the sake of Law, but for the Protection of
Human Rights and Interests?the only sure
foundation of order and concord.
In no sense will it be the organ of a Party, or
a mere Parly Paper, but absolutely " free and
independent," claiming to speak by " authori
ty" lor nobody except its editor, and recognis
ing no authority in any quarter to prescribe its
course aud policy.
In Liletjature, it will aim to unite the Beau
tiful with the True, and to make both immedi
ately subservient to the practical purposes of
every-day life.
Able correspondents, at home and abroad,
have been secured, and ampie provision has
been made for its Literary Miscellany.
It will publish condensed reports of the pro
ceedings of Congress, explain movements in
that body, the causes of which do not always
lie upon the surface, and from its position be
able to keep a constant watch upon the action
of the Federal Government in relation to all
questions at issue between Liberty and Slavery.
The extensive subscription of the Weekly
Era, which, during the year about to close, has
reached the number of twenty-eight thousand,
must make it an eligible medium for advertisers.
The Daily Era will be issued on a sheet as
large as that of the Daily National Intelligencer,
on the 2d day of January, 1854, and daily there
after, until the 1st of September, 1854, (or long
er, should Congress continue in session.) at
FIVF. DOLLARS FOR THAT PERIOD; and shoJlltl
the result then warrant, the publication will be
resumed on the 1st of December following, by
the year.
As but sixteen days intervene between this
and the 2d of January, it is important that
subscriptions be forwarded at once.
Payment in atl panes will be invariably re
quired O. BAILEY.

PEOSPECTUS OP THE EIGHTH VOLUME OF THE ,
RATIONAL EEA. .
O. RAII.EY, editor and proprietor.
JOHN O. WHITTIER, corresponding editor.
WASHINGTON, D. C.
The National Era in a weekly newspaper,
devoted to Literature and Polities.
In Literature, it aims to nnito the Beautiful
with the Tme, and to make both immediately
subservient to the praotical purposes of every
day life.
In Politics, it advocates the Rights of Man,
aod the Kquality of Rights, and opposes what
ever violated or tends to violate them, whether
this be Involuutary Personal Servitude, Civil
Despotism, Spiritual Absolutism, Class Legis
lation, the Sol&dmess of Capital, the Tyranny
of Combination, the Oppression of a Majority,
or the Reactions of Party.
It holds no fellowship with the Whig and
Democratic organisations, believing that the
main issues on whioh they have been arrayed
against each other are obsolete or settled, and
that they are now ohiefly used by the Sectional
Intorest of Slavery, to impair the love of Lib
erty natural to the Amerioau mind, and to
subjugate the American People to its rule. Dis
claiming all connection with them, it yet sym
pathises with those of their adheronts who are
honestly seeking through them to advanoe the
substantia) interests of the oountry, although
it must believe that they have not choaeu the
better way.
It is a supporter of the Independent Democ
racy, which holds that the Truths of the Dec
laration of Independence are practical, that in
their light the Constitution of the United
States is to be interpreted, that to them the
laws and institutions and usages of tl)e ooun
try should be conformed?a Party, whose
motto is, Union, not for the sake of Union,
but for the sake of Freedom and Progress; !
and Law, not for the sake of Law, but for the
Protection of Human Rights and Interests?
the only sure foundation of order and ooncord. ?
In no sense is it the organ of a Party, or a
mere Party Paper, but absolutely " free and
independent," claiming to spoak " by author
ity" for nobody except its editor, and rocogni- ;
sing no authority in any quarter to prescribe its
oourse and policy.
The Kighth Volume of the Era will oom
mence on the first of January ensning, and be
enlarged by the addition of four oolumns. We
have neglnoted no means that could promise to
make it an agreeable companion for the House
hold, and an efficient oo-adjutor to the enlight
ed Politician, It has secured able correspond
ents at home and abroad, and no journal in
the oountry oan surpass the Era as it respeots
contributors to its Literary Department.
The Era publishes condensed reports of the
proceeding* of Congress, explains movements
in that body, the oauses of whioh do not always
lie upon the surface, and from its position is
enabled to keep a constant watch upon the ac
tion of the Federal Government in relation
to all questions at issuo between Liberty and
Slavery.
The only journal at tho neat of th? Federal
Government, representing the Anti-Slavery
Sentimont of tho Kepublio, while the Pro Sla
very Sentiment is represented here by four
daily papers, nearly all of them being liberally
sustained by Governmental patronage, it asks
the support of all who believe, in sinoerity, that
the Union was formed to secure the blessings
of Liberty, and not to perpetuate tho curse of
Slavery.
Payment in advance in invariably required.
To prevent annoyance and low to ourselves
and readers, to preserve their files unbroken,
and to enable us to know how large an edi
tion of the paper to iBsuo, all subscriptions
should bo renewed before they expire. We

MRS. BEN DARBY;
OK,
TI1E WEAL AND WOE OF SOCIAL LIFE.
One Volume 12mo, #1.
TIIE object of this tale in to exhibit in different
phases, in high life and low lifo. the accursed
ofleets of intemperate drinking, tbo bano of social
lifo. the curso of civilized tnan. The characters arc
well and sharply drawn, and the various scuncs are
doscribod with much spirit and graphic effect. * *
? Wo are disposed to regard the book as the best
of its kind that has yot appeared.?Boston Traveller.
It is not often that we road a story of any kind,
but wo havo broken our praetioo, and have read this
book not only with pleasure, but with a gratification
which but very few novels havo ever afforded us. It
is a quiet and simple, but still striking and offoctivo
pieturo of American social lifo.?Chicago Tribune.
Written with marked ability.?Zantsville Courier
A thrilling picture of tho effects of that infernal
bano of social life, intemporance.?Richmond Pal
ladium.
Tho style is attractive and fascinating ; there is a
freshness and originality about it, that is very pleas
ing. * * * One of its chief merits is the excol
lenoo of its conversations.?Enquirer.
Has so many thrilling pass%es and well-drawn
characters, that you read it with absorbed attention.
It cannot fail to achieve for Mrs. Collins an enviable
popularity. She takes us with hor to tbo drunkard's
home, and tells of the hanger and the fear, tho toil
and the suffering, that aro there. She paints," with
a woman's dulicato skill, tho meok patience, the
long-abusod, but unchanging love of the drunkard's
wife, touchcs the deepest chords of tho heart, and
makes thorn vibrate with pity and with indignation.
Christum Herald.
Though Mrs. Collins has already hosts of admi
rers of her literary productions, this work, wo pre
dict, will increase that number ten-fold, and give
her a reputation worthy of her high talents.? New
Albany Tribune.
Tbo style is easy, natural, beautiful, chaste, and
at times very eloquent. We would commend it es
pecially to young ladies, that they may see to what
dangers they are exposed-, in forming alliances with
the fashionable in high life.?Ohio Organ.
A deeply interesting and powerful work. It vivid
ly portrays some of tho terrific exploits of strong
drink in both high and low life. Nor are such scenes
as it depicts either imaginary or few. I*t this book
circulate. It has a beneficent aim, and is the vehicle
of admirably old and most saJulary lessons.?Pres
byterian.
? ? * Has sketched it in its daintiest form of
fascination, as well as in its gl im and dismal aspocfc
of open degradation. Rarely has a woman ventured
to hold tho torch to such a dark recess of human
woo.? Daily Time*.
We know of no passage, anywhere, more uniijxely
boautifiil. more intensely absorbing, more overpow
ering in tho pathetic, than the thirty-fourth chapter.
It is indeed a gem We doubt whether tho celebra
ted chapter devoted to the death of Kva, in Uncle
Tom'i Cabin, is superior. * * * It i? certainly
the most powerful temperance talc thAt we have ever
perused.?Journal ant) Mrssenger.
Rcautifully written. * * * A work of great
strength and power.?Go *pel Herald,
? ? * The incidents dramatic, and the inter
est intense to the end.? Ohio Stahsman.
Wields an easy pen, and sketches men and man
ners to the life.?Protfftorian Herald.
Graphic, truthful, chaste, and deeply affecting, the
story winds itself into our foelings. and wo become
absorbed in the plot, as if wo beheld before our own
eyes the realities of the author's delineations ?Dai
ly Sun.

ELEVENTH VOLUME OF
THE AMERICAN AGRICULTURIST,
THK I.KAUINtJ
Weekly Agricultural Paper of the Country.
THE AMERICAN AGRICULTURIST, a weekly
Periodical ol sixteen large quarto pages, inakii g
an anuu&l volume of 832 pages of nearly double tl a
siaa ol those in the first ton volumes of tho Agricul
turist.
It is beautifully printud with type caat oxprosaly
for it, and on the best of elenr white paper, with wide
margin, so that tho numbers can bo easily stitchid
or bound together.
A copious Index is weekly added, which will ba
fully amplified at tho end of the year, for the bound
work.
Comprehensive in its Character,
, Each volume will contain all matter worth record
ing, which transpires cither at homo or abroad, und
which can serve to instruct or interest, tho Farn er,
tho Planter, tho Fruit-Grower, the Gardoner, and
the Stock Brooder; thus making it tho most c( m
ploto and useful Agricultural Publication of the day.
Correct and valuable Market Reports.
Tho Markets will bo carufully reported, giving tha
actual transactions which tuko place from week to
week, in Grata, Provisions, Cattle, Ac.; thus keep
ing our readers constantly, and reliably advised ?s to
their interosts. During tho past year, tho knowledga
obtained from these Market Rojtorts alono has saved
our readers thousands of dollars, by informing them
of the host time to sell or purchase.
Such a Paper is demanded by the Farming
Community.
The publishers confidently believe that the agri
culturists of this country are becoming too much
awako to tho demands of their own calling to ha
longer satisfied with the slow monthly issues of a pa
per professedly devoted to their interests, or to trust
alone to tho irrosponsiblo extracts in a "farmer's
column," so popular just now in papers chiotly devo
ted to business, politics, or literature: and they look
for the united support of all the intelligent farmers
of tbia country in their continued effort to furnish a
woekly paper ol a high and reliable character, which
shall be progressive, and at the same time cautious
and conservative in all its teachings.
Essentially an Agricultural Paper.
The Agriculturist will not depart from its legiti
mate sphere to catch popular favor by lumbering up
its pages, with the silly, fictitious literature, nnd
light, miscellaneous matter of tho day; it ha* a high
er aim; and a small part only of its apace will be
devoted t? matters not immediately pertaining to the
great business of Agriculture. The household as
well as tho out-door work of the farm will receive a
due share of attention. The humbugs and nostrums
afloat in the community will be tried by reliable sci
entific rules, and their worthlessnoss exposed. It is
the aim of the publishers to kcop this paper under
the guidance of those who will make it a standard
work, which shall communicate to Its readers only
that which is safe and roltable.
An Independent Journal.
The American Agriculturist stands upon its own
merits; and the truthfulness, seal, and ability,
which it brings to the support of the interest* of the'
farmer. It is untrainmeled by any collateral busi
ness connections whatever; nor is it the organ of any
clique, or the puffing machine of any man or thing.
Thoroughly independent in all polnia, its ample pa
gea are studiously given alone to tho support and im
provement of the great agricultural class.
Editorial Department.
The Amsrtr.m Apr, ultu.in is under the editorial
supervision of Mr. A B Allen, its principal editor
for the past teu years, and Mr Orange Judd, A. M.,
a thoroughly practical farmer aud agricultural
chemist.
They will be assisted by Prof Na^h, who has been
for a long time one of the most successful farmers of
New England, and is now Agricultural Professor of
Amherst College; Rev Wm. Clift, widely known as a *
pleasing and instructive writer on gardening and
other departments of practical agriculture, aud, in
addition to these, a number ol other eminent agri
, cultural writers.
All the editor* are men pra. tically experienced in
! their profession, each of whom can handle tho Plow
. as well as the Pen.
