We regard the _Missionary_ as the best means of communication with

our friends, and to them the best source of information regarding

our work.

A little effort on the part of our friends, when making their own

remittances, to induce their neighbors to unite in forming Clubs,

will easily double our list, and thus widen the influence of our

Magazine, and aid in the enlargement of our work.

Under editorial supervision at this office, aided by the steady

contributions of our intelligent missionaries and teachers in

all parts of the field, and with occasional communications from

careful observers and thinkers elsewhere, the _American Missionary_

furnishes a vivid and reliable picture of the work going forward

among the Indians, the Chinamen on the Pacific Coast, and the

Freedmen as citizens in the South and as missionaries in Africa.

It will be the vehicle of important views on all matters affecting

the races among which it labors, and will give a monthly summary of

current events relating to their welfare and progress. Patriots and

Christians interested in the education and Christianizing of these

despised races are asked to read it, and assist in its circulation.

Begin with the January number and the new year. The price is only

Fifty Cents per annum.

The Magazine will be sent gratuitously, if preferred, to the

persons indicated on page 157. Donations and subscriptions should

be sent to

H. W. HUBBARD, Treasurer,

56 Reade Street, New York.

TO ADVERTISERS.

Special attention is invited to the advertising department of the

AMERICAN MISSIONARY. It numbers among its regular readers very

many frugal, well-to-do people in nearly every city and village

throughout our Northern and Western States. It is therefore a

specially valuable medium for advertising all articles commonly

used in families of liberal, industrious and enterprising habits of

life.

Advertisements must be received by the TENTH of the month, in order

to secure insertion in the following number. All communications in

relation to advertising should be addressed to

THE AMERICAN MISSIONARY ADVERTISING DEPARTMENT,

56 Reade Street, New York.

Our friends who are interested in the Advertising Department of the

AMERICAN MISSIONARY, can aid us in this respect by mentioning, when

ordering goods, that they saw them advertised in our Magazine.
