PvJilishcdby Moiuuson k Hoi.ton, Indianapolis.
The proprietors of the Ixdiwv 1)em-
ocuat tender their respects to the pub
ic, and again propose to publish a
semi-weeklv paper, during me ensuing
session of the Legislature of Indiana, containing Reports of t he proceedings of that body, in addition to the usual
news of the day, and political and miscellaneous matter. Competent Re
porters will bo provided, and the joint
exertions of the proprietors will be used
to give an additional interest to the paper. To those wishing the perusal of
1 careful and correct report ot the pro
ceeding of our Legislature, an oppor
tunity is now afiorded.by a subscription
to the Democrat. As our current expences will be greatly increased, by the employment of Reporters and an additional number of workmen, we call on our fellow-citizens to sustain us in an enterprise which has heretofore been unprofitable to both ihe-offices in this place. As the political character of the Democrat is well established, and Mr. Mo rrison, the original proprietor, is again permanently interested, the public will not be disappointed in bestowing their patronage. TERMS. The terms of the Indiana Democrat, arc two dollars per volume, of 52 numbers, if paid in advance; two dollars and fifty cents in six tnonlhs, or three dollars if payment if delayed until the close- of a volume. The price of the paper during the session of the Legislature,(7nWatoVr in each veek.) will be one dollar in advance. For the weekly paper, during the session, fifty cents, in advance. A reasonable percentage will be allowed for obtaining subscribers.
Off !CE OF THE IIIAN JoiUlVM,. Indianapolis, .Yov. 7, 1834. The Editors of the Ixdiaxa .Iocrxal. having made the necessarv- arrangements, propose, as usual, to issue their paper twice a week during the approaching session of the General Assembly. It will contain as accurate and impartial an account of the procedings of the Legislature as is possible for us to give, together with such other intell igence. foreign and domestic, as may he deemed useful and interesting to the general reader. This paper has been so long established, and its character so well known, that it is not deemed necessary to deal much in promises. We would merely say that we will pledge our most unremitting exertions to give interest to our columns, and the most careful attention in forw arding papers to subscribers. We shall gladly receive subscribers either for the session or by the year. Those desiring the paper during the session only will please to cause their names to be forwarded on or before the first day of the session, in order that they may get the numbers complete. The terms of the paper to regular subscribers continues as usual, two dollars for 52 Nos. in advance, or three dollars at the expiration of the term. The price to session subscribers will be oxe dollar. Several years experience has demonstrated to us that the paper cannot be afforded for a less sum wihout involving us in debt. Members of the General Assembly are authorized and respectfully solicited to act as agents for us in receiving subscribers and money.
