Supplement, dated October 3, 1996, to the prospectus, dated February 1, 1996, of
                   Seligman New Jersey Tax-Exempt Fund, Inc.,
                  Seligman Pennsylvania Tax-Exempt Fund Series,
                      Seligman Tax-Exempt Fund Series, Inc.
             and Seligman Tax-Exempt Series Trust (each, a "Fund")


             THIS SUPPLEMENT SUPERSEDES AND REPLACES THE PROSPECTUS
                         SUPPLEMENT DATED JULY 30, 1996.

         At a Joint Special Meeting of Shareholders  held on September 30, 1996,
the  shareholders  of each Fund (or  where  applicable,  each  series of a Fund)
approved  a change in a  fundamental  policy  such  that,  under  normal  market
conditions,  each Fund or Series would  invest  atleast 80% of its net assets in
debt securities the interest on which is exempt from regular federal income tax,
and an elimination of a corresponding  investment  restriction of each such Fund
or  Series  to  permit  the  investment  of any  portion  of its net  assets  in
tax-exempt securities subject to the federal alternative minimum tax ("AMT").

         In connection with shareholder approval of the foregoing,  the Board of
Directors/Trustees of each Fund has also approved a change in name for each Fund
and Series that would replace the words  "tax-exempt"  with "municipal" in order
to  comply  with the  position  of the  staff  of the  Securities  and  Exchange
Commission  that a fund which  invests more than 20% of its assets in tax-exempt
securities subject to AMT may not contain the words "tax-exempt" in its name.
