The Unprecedented Success
Of this ably conducted and handsomely printed Family Newspaper has induced the
Proprietor to make such outlays as to render the `Flag,' the most worthy of
patronage of any periodical in the United States—a reputation, indeed, which
it has already acquired, among the many who have been so fortunate
as to obtain it. To substantiate this fact fully in the minds of all,
we have only to state that it has already acquired a circulation of
32,000.
And it is now increasing in the ratio of at least FIVE HUNDRED per week. This circulation
has not been obtained by any extra exertions, but it is to be
attributed solely to the appreciation of the paper in the minds
of an enlightened and intelligent community.
ORIGINAL $100 PRIZE TALES, from the pens of the most popular authors
of the day, will always form an attractive feature of the paper. Also all the Dramatic
and Musical News, together with the general intelligence of the day, and and an almost
endless variety of items on all subjects,—Grave, Lively, Satirical, Comic and Sentimental,
combined, to make it a paper calculated to suit every one.
Terms, Two Dollars per annum, or One Dollar for six months, invariably in
advance.
Those in the country who wish to become subscribers to the `Flag,' by enclosing
the amount of subscription in a letter (postpaid) to either of the above places, may depend
upon receiving their paper regularly every week, and in due time.
The `Flag' may also be obtained at all the Periodical Depots in the United States
and of Newsmen, at FOUR CENTS per copy.
N. B. If the reader of this should have been so unfortunate as not to have seen
this Model of Newspapers, and should wish to do so before subscribing, can be gratified
by enclosing us a five cent piece, directed (post paid,) to either of the above places.
F GLEASON, Proprietor.
