for five years, post paid, and a copy of the great standard
Webster’s Unabridged Dictionary (latest and best edition), in
leather binding, 1,840 quarto pages, with 3,000 engravings, _both_
for $10—being two dollars less than the cost of the Dictionary
alone at any book-store! Thus any subscriber, renewing at the
regular rate for five years, gets his favorite paper for the five
years for nothing and the great Dictionary for $2 less than its
regular price; or he gets his paper at the regular price, and the
great Dictionary for nothing—whichever way he pleases to count it.
Any old subscriber to THE SEMI-WEEKLY TRIBUNE can avail himself of
the same offer by sending the regular price of that issue for five
years’ subscriptions—$15—in the same way. The papers are sent in
all cases free of postage; the Dictionary, being too heavy to go
in the mails, is forwarded at once in whatever way the subscriber
asks, at his expense. For further information and specimen copies,
address simply _THE TRIBUNE, New York_.

THE THIRTY-SECOND VOLUME OF
THE
American Missionary,
ENLARGED AND IMPROVED.
_Besides giving news from the Institutions and Churches aided by
the Association among the Freedmen in the South, the Indian tribes,
the Chinese on the Pacific Coast, and the Negroes in Western
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._
_We publish =25,000= copies per month, and shall be glad to
increase the number indefinitely, knowing from experience that to
be informed of our work is to sympathize with, and desire to aid
it._
_The Subscription Price will be, as formerly, =Fifty Cents a
Year=_, IN ADVANCE. _We also offer to send =One Hundred
copies to one address=, for distribution in Churches or to clubs
of subscribers, for $30, with the added privilege of a Life
Membership to such person as shall be designated. The Magazine
will be sent gratuitously, if preferred, to the persons indicated
on the sixtieth page. Remittances should be sent to_ H. W.
HUBBARD, _Assist-Treas., 56 Reade Street, N. Y._
Advertising Department.
_A limited space in our Magazine will henceforth be devoted to
the interests of Advertisers, to whom our low rates and large
circulation give its pages special value. Our readers are of the
best and most enterprising in the country, having an established
character for integrity and thrift that constitute them valued
customers in all departments of business._
_To Advertisers using display type and Cuts, who are accustomed to
the_ “RULES” _of the best Newspapers, requiring_ “DOUBLE RATES”
_for these_ “LUXURIES,” _our wide pages, fine paper, and superior
printing, with =no extra charge for cuts=, are advantages readily
appreciated, and which add greatly to the appearance and effect of
business announcements._
_We are, thus far, gratified with the success of this department,
and solicit orders from all who have unexceptionable wares to
advertise._
_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_
_J. H. DENISON, 56 Reade Street, New York._

Transcriber’s Notes:
Spelling and punctuation were changed only where the error appears
to be a printing error. The punctuation changes are too numerous
to list; the others are as follows:
Ditto marks in tables were replaced by the text they represent.
“last” changed to “Last” on page 54. (Last spring)
“accomodate” changed to “accommodate” on page 60. (accommodate the
increasing numbers of students)
