’Tis the change that I wish you—may it daily increase.

“For nothing I’ve found in this vain world of trouble

Will suit Eds like having their subscription-lists double;

Not only in names, but that each one will pay

In advance for the paper, and take it away.

Now I wish you, dear sir, in all good to increase,

With plenty of readers, and money, and peace.

“Orion.”


Fitzgerald’s City Item.—The other day this beautiful and ably conducted weekly came to us clothed in a new suit of type, and printed upon white and firm paper. The Item is now one of the largest, handsomest, and certainly one of the ablest of our weeklies. All who take an interest in Business, Literature, the Fine Arts, Music, and the Drama, are recommended to subscribe to it. On these and kindred subjects, it has ever been regarded as first-rate authority. Every family, every gentleman and lady of taste and leisure in the country, should take Fitzgerald’s City Item. It is furnished at the moderate price of $2 a year, in advance. Address Fitzgerald & Co., 46 South Third street, Philadelphia. (Post paid.)
