PROSPECTUS OP THE DAILY NATIONAL EHA I shall issue, on the 2d day or January on rains, tho Daily National Era, a Political and Literary Newspaper. fn Poliltc.1, it will adrooate the Right* or Man, aud tho Equality of Rights, and oppose whatever violator or tends to violate them, whether this ho fnvojuntary Personal Servi tude, Civil DosjiotiHiii, Spiritual Absolutism, Class Legislation, the Selfishness of Capital, the Tyranny of Combination, the Oppression of a Majority, or tho F.xaotions of a Party. It will hold no fellowship with the Whig and Democratic organization*, believing that the main ipsues on whioh they have been ar rayed against each other are oltsoleto or settled, and that they are now chiefly used by the Sec tional Interest of Slavery, to impair the love of Lilierty natural to tho American mind, and to olaiming all connection with them, it will yet sympathise with those of their adherents who are honestly Peeking through them to advance the sulmtantial interests of the country, althongh it must believe that they have not chosen the better way. It will l?o a supporter of the Independent Democracy, which holds that the Truths of the Declaration 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 country should be oonformed-?a Party, whom motto is, Union, not for the sake of Union, bat for the ?aks of Freedom and Progress; and Low, not , or the sake of Law, but tor the protection of Human Righto and Interests?the only sure foundation of order and oonoord. In no sense will it be the organ of a Party, or a more Party Paper, but absolutely " free and independent," claiming to uiteuk by "au thority " for nobody except its editor, und rec ognising no authority in any quarter to pro scribe its course and polioy. In Literature, it will aim to unite the Beau tiful with the True, and to make both immedi ately subservient to the practical purposes (<f etery-day lift*. Able correspondents, at homo and abroail, have been secured, and ample 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 ulwa>s lie upon the surface, and from its position be 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 tlie year about to close, bus reached the number of twenty-eight thousand, must make it an eligible medium for advertiser*. The Daily Era will be issued on a sheet as largo 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 kivk dollars for that pkkiod; and $houhl ike result then warrant, tbe publication will be rosumed on the 1st ol September following, by the year. As but sixteen days intervene between this und tbe 2d of January, it is important that subscriptions be forwarded at once. Payment in advance vnll be invariably re~ quired. G. BAILEY.

THE LIVING AUK has been abundantly honored by the approbation of the best judges; it has been pronounced to be aound and vigorous; various and rotertainicg; Ml of spirit and life; uniting the qualities which gratify the scholar, the philosopher, and the man of business, with those which recom mend it to their wives and children. We shall now endeavor to add to these intrinsic excellences the greater attractions of Art, and, beginning with 18M, Every Number will contain an Impression from a beautiful Steel Plate. The 63 Plates a year will alone be worth the priee of subscription. This work is wade up of the elaborate and stately essays of the Edinburgh, Quarterly, and other Re views; and Blackwood's noble criticisms on poetry, his keen political commentaries, highly wrought tales, and vivid descriptions of rural and mountain nceiiery, and the contributions to literature, history, and common life, by the sagacious Spectator, tht sparkling Kr/imincr, the judicious Athrrurum, th? busy and industrious Literary (razette, the sensible and comprehensive Britannia, the sober and respect able Christian Observer; these are intermixed with the military and naval reminiscences of the Untie* Service, and with the best articles of the Dvbitn Uni vtrstiy, Nrte Monthly, Fruser's, Tati' s,Ainsworth' s, Hood m, and Sporting Magazines, and of Chambers admirable Journal. We do not consider it beneath our dignity to borrew wit and wisdom from Pavrh; and, when we think it good enough, make use of the thnnder of The Times. We shall increase onr vari ety by importations from the continent of Eur<fk?, and from tbe new growth of the British colonies.
