WASHINGTON, D. 0.
The National Era is a weekly newspaper,
devoted to Literature and Politics.
In Literature, it aims to unite the Beautiful
with the True, and to make both immediately
subservient to the practical purposes of every
day life.
In Politics, it advocates the Rights of Man,
and the Kquality of Rights, and opposes what
ever violates or tends to violate them, whether
this be Involuntary Personal Sorvitude, Civil
Despotism, Spiritual Absolutiam, Class Legis
lation, the Selfishness of Capital, the Tyranny
of Combination, the Oppression of a Majority,
or the Exactions of Party.
It holds no fellowship with the Whig and
Democratic organizations, believing that the
main issues on which thoy have been arrayed
against each othor are obsolete or settled, and
that thoy arc now chiefly used by the Sectional
Interest of Slavery, to impair the love of Lib
erty natural to the American mind, and to
subjugate the American Pooplo to its rule. Dis
claiming all connection with them, it yet sym
pathises with those of their adheronts who are
honestly seeking through thein to advance the
substantial interests of the country, although
it must believe that they have not choson tho
bettor way. * , t
It is a supporter of tho Independent Democ
racy, which nolds that tho 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 the coun
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 tho sake of Law, but for tho
Protection of Human Rights and Interests?
the only sure foundation of order and oonoord.
In no senso is it tho organ of a Party, or a
more Party Paper, but absolutely 11 free and
" independent," claiming to speak " bv author
ity'' for nobody except its oditor, and recogni
sing no authority in any quarter to prescribe its
course and policy.
The Eighth Volume of the Era will com
mence on tho first of January ensuing, and be
enlargod by the addition of four columns. We
have neglected no moans that could promise to
make it an agrooable companion for the House
hold, and an efficient co-adjutor to the enlight
ed Politician. It has secured ablo correspond
ents at home and abroad, and no journal in
the country can surpass the Era as it respects
contributors to its Literary Department.
The Era publishes condensed rej?orts of the
proceedings of Congress, explains movements
in that body, tho causes of which do not always
lie upon the suriaoe, aud from its position is
enablod to keep a constant watoh upon the ac
tion of tho Federal Government in relation
to all questions at issue between Liberty and
Slavery.
The only journal at tho seat of the Federal
Government, representing tho Anti-Slavery
Sentiment of the Republic, while tho Pro-Sla
very Sontiment is represented here bv four
daily papers, nearly all of them being liberally
sustained by Governmental patronage, it ask*
the support of all who believe, in sincerity, that
tho Union was formed to secure the blessings
of Liberty, and not to perpetuate tho curse 01
Slavery.
Paymont in advanoo is invariably requirod.
To prevent annoyance and loss to ourselves
and readers, to presorvo thoir files unbroken,
and to enable us to know how large an edi
tion of the paper to issue, all subscription*
should l?e renewed before they expire. We
have 110 erodit-aulisorilior* on our books.

PROSPECTUS QF THE DAILY HATIOHAL ERA.
I shall issue, on tho 2d day of January en
suing, the Daii.y National Kra, a Political
and Literary Nowspaper.
In Politics, it will advocatc tho Rights of
Man, and the Kquality of Rights, and oppose
whatever violates or tends to violate ibom.
whether this bo Involuntary Personal Servi
tude, Civil Despotism, Spiritual Absolutism,
(.'lass legislation, the Soltishness of Capital,
the Tyranny of Combination, the Oppression ot
a Majority, or the Kxaotion* of a Party.
It will hold no fellowship with the Whig
and Democratic or gam xa lions, believing that
the main issues on which they have boon ar
rayed against each other are obsolote or settled,
and that they are now ohiofly used by the Seo
tional Interest of Slavery, to impair the love of
Liberty natural to the American mind and to
subjugate the American People to its rule. Dit>
olai'ming al! connection with tbom, it Will yet
sympathise with tlmec of their adherents who
are honoetly seeking through them to advanoo
the substantial interests of the oountry, although
it must believe that they have not chosen tho
lietter way.
It will bo a supporter of the Independent
Democrat, whieh holds that the Truths of the
Doolaration of Independence are practical: that,
in their light the Constitution of tho United
States is to interpreted ; that to them the
laws and institutions and usages of the country
tdiould bo conformed?a Party, whttse motto
in, Union, not for the sake of Union, but for the
<ak? of Freedom and Progress; and Law, not
or the sake of Law, but for the protection of
Human Rights and Interests?the only sure
foundation of order and oonoord.
In no sense will it be the organ or a I'arty,
or a mere Party Paper, hut alMolutely free
and independent," claiming to si?uk tiy " au
thority " for nobody except its editor, and rec
ognising no authority in any quarter to pro
scribe its course and policy.
In Literature, 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 lifj.
Able correspondents, at home and abroad,
havo been secured, and ample provision has
been made for its Literary Misccllany.
(t will publish condensed reports of the pro
ceedings of Congress, explain movement* in
that body, the causes of which do not alwayo
lie upon the surfaoc, and from its position L>o
able to keep a constant watch upou 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 issuod on a sheet as
large as that of the Daily National Intelligencer,
on the 2d day of January, 1854, and daily there
after, until tho 1st of September, 1854, (or loug
or, should Congress continue in session,) at
FIVE DOLLARS FOR THAT PERIOD; and sllOUltl
the result then warrant, the publication will
be resumed ou the 1st of September following,
by the year.
As but sixteen days intervene botween this
and tho 2d of January, it is important that
subscriptions be forwardod at onco.
Payment in (ulvance will be invariably re
quired. G. BAILEY.

THR LIVINtl AGE has been abundantly honored
by the approbation of the best judges; It has
been pronounced to he sound and vigorous; various
and entertaining; fall of spirit and life; uniting the
qualities which gratify the scholar, the philosopher,
and the man of business, with those which reoom
mend it to their wives and children. We shall now
endeavor to add to these intrinsic excellences the
creator attractions of Art, and, beginning with 1864,
Every Nutnbtr will contain an Impression from
a beautiful Steel Plate.
The 52 Plates a year will alone be worth the price
of subscription.
This work is made up of the elaborate and stately
essays of the Ktii nfmrgk, Qiuirtxr/if, and other Re
views; and H/witoooa'n noble criticisms on poetry,
his keen political commentaries, highly wrought
tales, and vivid descriptions of rural and mountain
scenery j and the contributions to literature, history,
and common life, by the sagacious Xurrtaior, the
sparkling Rxamintr, the judicious Ailu.na;uin, the
busy and industrious LUertuj/ (inzrlir, the sensible
and comprehensive HnutiiMui, the sober and respect
able Christian Ghtr.rvrr; these are intermixed with
the military and naval reminiscences of the Uniu4
Strvtrt, and with the best articles of the Dublin Uui
ver'ity, Nrw Monthly/, Toil'f,Alnmrurth'*,
Ham/ *, and Sporting Magatinrt, and at Chamhf.ru
admirable JonnuU. We do hot consider it beneath
our dignity to borrow wit and wisdom from PuncA ,
and, when we think it good enough, make use of th?
thunder of Thr Timwis. We shall increase our vari
ety by importations from the eontinent of Europe,
and from the new growth of the British colonies.
