Monmouthshire Merlin

ddrtt. IMPORTANT TO ADVERTISERS THE Counties of SOUTH WALES, bor- dering on England, offer the most valuable and profitable fields for ADVERTISERS that can be found within the same extent in the empire-if we exclude the great Metropolis, and the rich teeming districts of the ever-productive. the ever-absorbing NORTH. MONMOUTHSHIRE, GLAMORGANSHIRE BRECONSHIRE, with their large population, commercial enterprise, and rapidily-incraasing wealth, are, unquestionably, COUNTIES to which Advertisers may look with confidence for an ample return for any outlay they may incur, in pushiDg their several interests, with a view to large and produc- tive sales, &c. THE MONMOUTHSHIRE MERLIN, LAMORGrANSTIIUE AND BRECON SILURIAN, AND SOUTH ALES DVEKTISER, has been for more than a quarter of a century, the GREAT ADVERTISING MEDIUM OFTHE DISTRICT. Advertisers desirous of availing themselves of the pub- licity of its columns, are requested to address the Publisher, Mr. CHRISTOPHERS, NEWPORT, MON- MOOTHSHIBE. Advertisements inserted on a Moderate Scale; and when Contracted for by the Year, Half-year, or Quarter, the terms are proportionately reduced. NEWSPAPER CIRCULATION.
