Philadelphia,
FRIDAY EVENING, JULY 1, 1796.
ADDRESS.
The Volumes of this Gazette are made up half yearly—the present Number commences the Tenth, which will be completed on the last of December next.
Two years and a half have elapsed since the Gazette of the United States was published daily. The patronage it has received, is equal, it is believed to that of any other daily publication, for the same period, and merits the Editor's grateful acknowledgements. Subscribers are continually added to the list; and its advertising patrons increase; they will please to accept of sincere thanks for their liberality.
A full supply of new Types is hourly expected—When received, the Gazette shall appear in a new dress.
As it is the determination of the Editor to embrace Commercial objects more fully than heretofore, a Price Current will be published weekly; as correct as the present very fluctuating state of markets will admit. Marine information, local and general, will be given extensively. Advertisements will be promptly and conspicuously published, at 50 Cents a square for the first insertion, and 25 cents for every continuation.
The propriety of the addition this day made to the title of the Paper we hope will be justified by experience, in such a proportional participation of the public favor, as exertions may merit.
The price of this Gazette is eight dollars a year. Subscribers whose papers are sent per post are charged one dollar yearly in addition for enclosing and directing. Six months subscription to be paid in advance.
