OURSELVES. -
W e mu-t say a lew wnrils to our sub
scribers in this City and elsewhere, on otir
pajnr anil the necessity of prtMiipt payments.
It lias been suggested to us In a staunch
I'rieod in the We-t, that if nur paper wen j
on the caa/i principle, Ire would itierense our,
list in a large extern .in his immediate negh-'
bnrhood. I his has induced us to think, J
(as other papers have succeeded when -tnrte d !
on this plan.) that it would not only be a \
benefit to iti individually , but justice to t th !
fioi'/ing subset liters, to adopt ihis s\ stem. It)
is better' lor us ami a surer guaranty to them,;
to have live hundred pityiiig subscribers,
than one lliouvjiid siiIimitbers?? only live!
hundred of p ,y their dues. Our loss1
i* 'hen heavy: whereis, if we have live!
bundled subscribers who pav regularlv. our i
loss is nothing?il we know we can carry mil
our paper with that number without thro v- !
ing ourselves in d<.-bi ; Hnd if we are willing)
to give our time for the benefit ol the
cause, it is better thai we should do so with !
five hundred g-od subscribers, than lot us to!
print a thousand copies, a ad have a debt acj
curing weeklv. We have iheiefore deter- !
mined, after the font of December next, to ail- j
here rigi ihj to (he cash system. i\'o paper j
will be sent out of this office, after that date,
on which the subscription is not paid. Wei
have to pay for every thing we use in hriii|<-;
i' g out our sheet; and we cannot aflord to'
lose half our dues?not indeed, any of them. I
All jiur bilis in this istrict will be sent out
before that lim?; and, if any subscriber
wishes to continue, he must pay up. I he
bill of each subscriber out of the city will be
pi teed in his paper, and we will expect a re
turn as soon as possible. > e give time to
nil; ami il ou^ "call" is not heeded, we will
cast them out of the vineyard. A Jen- hm e
established ami supported our paper by pr mtpt
payments, and we are determined that nmni/
shall notbre.ik it down. I?y a contrary eour.-e
e have no Association or party to bai k
U-, but have to make uttr own way in fbjr (?
sunshine. We have cleared the fog, and can
now see our way?and we hope no one uil
endeavor to uiar our sunny prospects. On '
some we have called again and again, but in j
vain? this resort is our safety-valve. We'
hope our friends will see the necessity of
a quick and cheerful response; and we pru-j
mise a renewi d energy for their gratification.
Our time for action has cu.ne, and all our
machinery must be free.
TO THE PUBLIC!
W e have been induced to make some little
deduction to six, ten, and larger numbers
of persons, who may club together and send
us their names and dig money for their sub
scriptions. W e do this for the benefit prin
' i pal 1 v of an x il iary societies, for two reasons?
first, to enable jhem to distribute information
cheap; and. secondly, t > induce our friends
to exert themselves to increase our circulation,
thereby giving our principles a fair showing.
We also offer the seventh copy gratis to any
person who will send us six subscribers, and
the money enclosed?all postage free. [See
terms on the fourth page."!
We hope our business friends will remem
ber us in the distribution of their favors. Our
room is sufficient for all ; and if it is not.we
can make it sn. Send in your advertisements,
and wc will insert them conspicuously, at
low rates, and [jive them a large city oircu
aiion besides.
SO^IUaiTTANciis by Mail.?" A Post
master may enclose money in a letter to the
publisher of a newspaper, to pay the sub
fctiption of a third person, and frank lite let
ter, if written by himself."?Kendall.
We hope our subscribers a? a distance will
ttke advantage ol ibis mode of convoying
their baclt dues to this paper; and, at the
same time, of sending on a year's subscrip
tion in a.l' unce; for we will need all to en
able us to keep ptfc with the times and our
necessities.
44 THE SPIRIT OF 1776."
|)R? >SPKC'f US.? IV undeisigiied contemplates
1 publishing hi Uiitct'y, a paper, tube called "Tub
M-ihit i>K !77ti,"lo bedrv 'Ifii al its title purpoits
to purely American interests, in all tlieii diveisihed
ramification*; embracing Agnculture, Manulac
lur-s, Commerce, the Mrdical Arts, auil every t>b
ject that can tend to our happiness, an a peop.e, and
our independence as a nation ; and arguing Hie ? n
tire repeal or modification of our naturalization
laws, hut with the slri test regard to the Constitu
tional rights o; our adopted citizens.
As a paper, the (spirit of I77ti will steer clear of
both the grt at political parties of the day. and will
pionounce an honest and unbiassed opinion oh men
and measure*. irrespective of party It Mill as
suiue the hroad ground, that with a country posses
sed of every variety of soil and climate?rich in
mineral w.-alth?and a people whose intelligence is
not surpassed by any nation under the canot>y of
Heaven, we possess within ouiselves all the ueces
sary elements of happiness and greatness, which
have only to be fostered and encouraged by wise
legislation. It will maintain that we*are capable
of governing ourselves; and pronouncing upon mea
sures nl national policy, without lorcign interfer
ence or dictation, or calling upon the overburthen
ed papulation of the old world, to decide the desti
ny of our infant and ^iant republic It is intended
also to make it a work, which will bo acceptable in
the drawing room, and the artist's studio, and hence
the lighter literature ol the day, and the progress ol
tti* arts which refine and adorn life, will have a
space in its columns, and nothing offensive to the
most fiiitidious delicacy v\ill find a place mi it.
As a commencement it is intended to publish it
once a week, at the low price of $ 1 50 pei annum,
payable half year.y in advance, (or to the carriers,
us they mat elect,) but to publish it semi-weekly,
and at last daily, as it becomes established. These
desirous of becoming sul.sciihers will please hand
in their name*, at ti.e office of the Suruly Morning
Mews, No. 17 Ann btreet and make known how
many copies or subscribers they will engage lor,
ami the members of the native Ameiican party in
this city may rest assured that the paper will ap

The Casket is print. <1 with a clear and beautiful
type upon the finest white paper.
I'lie liliistisitions are not surpassed by those of
any p. liidical at home or abroad?an'' besides the
monthly st 'el engravings, a qn ? 11*-r 1 y plat." -f col

these embellishment'' is no quailed, and they are
aiwavs ai'compai.i d with an appropriate sketch.

I'll - volume will b ? op.'iie i with the first .if a se
n?-3 of splrudid M>-/.zotiut engravings, prepared ex
piessly lor the work, by the burin ol Sartain, who
ileservedly st imU as the best engraver of the kind
in the Uui'ed Si.jtes.
Literary Character.?The literary chara? ter of the
Casket is well kuo-vn. It is wholly original, of the!
highest order, and sustained by writers ol the first
r.clv. Essays, Tales **ketche?, and Travels, com
pose its prominent piose articles ?while the po- iry j
is equa led ny that of no other magazine of lik* char- (
acte , I'hev iri' ty for which the Casket is cele-j
brated, shall suffer no diminution?but on the c >n
trary.ev ry ex rlion shall he made to increase its
illt.rl est.
Several Romances of the Revolution have already 1
appeared.and others shall follow in the course ol
the volume, presenting, When finished, a complete j
pi tine tf the manners, and a historical account ofi
the j^reat battles of that tune. Thus, the Casket,!
instead of iii-ing filled with sickly sentimentalities,'
iiiids at a ti no delineation of human nature in every
variety of passion. i
The series of thrilling Nautical Sketches.entitled
"cruizing in the last War,' and which are rated by J
tin: cotemporaiy press, equal to the celebrated;
Sketches hom ?? Pom Cringle's Log," will be con-j
tinued. and the " leaves from a Lawyer's Port-Fo !
li"," winch have attained a deserved celebiity. will
still furnish attraction to ihe Magazine.
We shall furnish the readers of the Casket with j
some vj, irtblf papers from entirely new contribu-.
tors. "The authoi ol Old Iron'ides on a lea shore," i
will i;ivf the first of a number of Sketches in Hie
Jmy iiumbei. We couiit n his prolific and grace

already embraced in the pages of the Magazine our,
'? Letters from Palmyra" the first ol which appeared ;
in the June number as introductory, will interest*
and .idd worth to its pages. They are from no un-i
practiced pan. i
fashions ?The lasbiori3 are published in the Cas
ket quaiterly. or at. often as any really new styles
arrive from Paris. The Engravings are colored and
executed IV.mi original designs. No old, worn out1
plates are re-tou lied, and then published as the la
test fashions. The truth -of our designs ina> bB
tested by comparing them with the lates' descrip
tion ot dresses.lro.n London and Paris. They are i
universally admitted to be the finest specimen of|
enjjr.iving and coloring afforded by any Magazine'
in this country. The expei.se of getting them up j
is great, but we shall in nowise abate the quality.
K member. The reader* of the Casket are furnished
icith these Jathiim iitates as an Extra. They do not
interfere w-iTi the regular and choice engravings
which always accompany Ihe work.
Time, of Publication.?The Casket is published
on the first of the inon'h in every quarter of the

reeei*e? it on that day, as well ds those wiio reside
in Philadelphia. In all the principal cities agents
have been established, by which in<*an* subscriber?

Terms.?Three dollars per annum, or two copies
yearly for five dolla.s, invariably in advance, post
paid. No new subscriber received without the Mo

Editors who will copy this Prospectus, and wil;
st-nd a copy, m-jr rd with ink. addressed to the Sa

annum, in advauct.?Upon entering the second vol
ume of this pioneer in the introduction of papeis ol
its class, I lie publishers may be excuscd lor congra
tulating themselves upon the continued prosperity
and advancement ol their periodical, from the issue
of its liist number, to the prcteiil time. Aware that
couipetion is the life ot business, they expected and
have met with rivals?but those rivals have so far,
been essentia! aids to the publicity and circulation
of the Jonathan. New readers have been made,
where, comparatively, few existed helore, ami the
taste created for the elegant literature of the two
hemispheres carried into ail pans ol (he country and
made accessible to.all, has produced a demand for
the Brother Jonathan, which it is gratifying to Mate
is continually on the increase.
| With such additions to their resources and emolu
ments, the publishers has aimed to give a commen
surate incrci.se Jo thetalue and ? interests ol their
sheet. In addition to the labors of the gentlemen
whose names are anounced as editors, the publish
eis avail themselves constantly of the aid ol sucli
occasional conlributois as they can find space for.
For the foreign correspondence of the Jonathan,
the services ol Kane C. Pray, Jr., have been enga
ged; and his fine litnaiy taste will also be exercis
ed in the selection of things rare, new, and worthy
in the European literary mait. Selections from the
cream of the foreign magazines will of course be
continued.
MUSIC.?In the progress of improvement, anew
feature has been added to the Brother Jonathan?
the publication of new and popular music. Every
paper will contain something in this way, new and
pleasant?lefertnee being had in the.selection, ra

I used it, and in three months 1 was so well 1 con
eluded I could salely pass the winter here, and I i
so. I have used an occasional botlle now and then
during the time, nut am now in as goid health as
possihe. My cough has wholly ceased, and my
lungs have every feeling of heallh.
