      THE SHEFFIELD FREE PRESS , published every Saturday Morning , price 4 £ d ., is now acknowledged to be the leading organ of a vast manufacturing district , includingth ' e populous towns of Sheffield , Rotheram , Barnsley , and Worksop , and containing a population of about 250 , 000 . It is attached to no sect or party , the great and distinguishing feature being a thorough and determined opposition to Centralization , and an unflinching and persevering advocacy of the great principle of Local 8 elf-Government . The speeches of the great Magyar chief , Kpssuth , will draw increased attention to this vital subject . The other important principles of the paper are : —Abolition of the Excise and Standing Army ; Monetary Reform , based on the Principle of a 6 elf-Regulat i :. i «? Currency ; the Gradual and Final Extinction of the National Oebt ; Direct Legislation , as developed by Rittinghausen ; the Enfranchisement of Woman ; Parliamentary Reform , founded on the People ' s Charter , &c . The unprecedented tucceas which has attended tho journal since its establishment at the commencement of the present year , and its circulation being-amongst tho active , intelligent , thoughtful , and earnest classes , render it the best medium for solicitors , auctioneers , insurance offices , authors , publishers , and ' advertisers in general , to make tfctir announcements public in the south of Yorkshire . Mr . Chas . Mitchell , in the laat edition of the Newspaper Press Directory , thus notices the Free Press : — " It is cleverly conducted ; the reviews of new books are ably and impartially written ; and there are copious details of the foreign , home , and colonial news of the week .
