                                 1996, of
                          Seligman Capital Fund, Inc.,
                        Seligman Common Stock Fund, Inc.,
           Seligman Communications and Information Fund, Inc.,
                           Seligman Growth Fund, Inc.,
                                       and
                Seligman Income Fund, Inc. (each a "Fund")

      The following  replaces the first sentence under the heading  "Shareholder
Information" in each Fund's prospectus:

      Shareholders will be sent reports semi-annually regarding the Fund.

                      -----------------------------


      The  following  supplements  the  information  set  forth  in each  Fund's
prospectus under "Purchase of Shares--Special Programs".

      The 1% CDSL  normally  imposed on  redemptions  of certain  Class A shares
(i.e.,  those purchased during the preceding  eighteen months at net asset value
pursuant to the sales load  schedule  provided  under  "Class A  Shares--Initial
Sales  Load") will be waived on shares that were  purchased  through Dean Witter
Reynolds, Inc. ("Dean Witter") by certain Chilean institutional investors (i.e.,
pension plans,  insurance  companies and mutual funds).  Upon redemption of such
shares within an eighteen  month period,  Dean Witter will  reimburse SFSI a pro
rata  portion  of the fee it  received  from  SFSI  at the  time of sale of such
shares.

                      -----------------------------


      The  following  supplements  the  information  set  forth  in each  Fund's
prospectus under "Purchase of Shares--Contingent Deferred Sales Load".

      For the period from the date Seligman  Global Horizon Funds (the "Offshore
Fund")  commences  offering its shares,  until May 31, 1997, SFSI will reimburse
any CDSL  charged  upon  the  redemption  of  Class B or  Class D shares  of any
Seligman  Mutual  Fund by a  non-U.S.  resident  alien  investor  who  uses  the
redemption proceeds to purchase Class B or Class A shares, respectively,  of the
Offshore Fund through Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner & Smith Incorporated, or any
of its affiliates (collectively,  "Merrill Lynch"). Merrill Lynch will, in turn,
reimburse  SFSI for the amount of CDSL so reimbursed by it over a period of four
years.
