Specimen copies are sent free on application. N. B.—To Ministers and Missionaries of all denominations the subscription will be four dollars a year, or one dollar a quarter. THE WEEKLY WITNESS. The following is the latest of many encouraging letters from subscribers of all classes, including Ministers, Missionaries and Merchants: “Mr. Editor: I take a great interest in and work hard for the WITNESS, but hitherto have not dared to hope that I could write anything worthy a place in your columns. I have no hesitation in saying that I consider the WITNESS the best family newspaper in America, and just my ideal of what a paper should be as an educator of the people. I have done and am doing all in my power to increase its circulation, and am happy to say I have succeeded in gaining many permanent subscribers in the town where I reside, as well as in other towns and Canada. I have sent it gratuitously to some who could not afford to take it, and as a gift to friends, and seldom destroy my own copy, but hand it to neighbors who do not take it. Besides this I pray earnestly and constantly for its success, and relief from its embarrassments. I purpose still to continue to send you in as many subscribers as possible, and to recommend it on all suitable occasions. My husband likes it very much too, and has, during the past week, changed the Weekly for the Daily. “INTERESTED READER.” Specimen copies will be sent on application. The price of the WEEKLY WITNESS by mail, including postage, is $1.50. Any one remitting $6 can have five copies addressed separately. The price to Ministers and Missionaries is $1.20 a year, or $1 for ten months. The paper stops when the subscription expires. SABBATH READING. Each number contains a first-class sermon by some celebrated preacher, and much excellent Religious, Missionary and Temperance reading matter besides, with no mixture of advertisements, news or editorials. It is calculated to give interesting and instructive reading matter for the Lord’s Day. Eight pages, weekly; fifty cents a year, post-paid. Send it to your friends in the country. It is equally suitable for all parties, denominations and parts of the Union.

We have been gratified with the constant tokens of the increasing appreciation of the MISSIONARY during the year now past, and purpose to spare no effort to make its pages of still greater value to those interested in the work which it records.
