MESSRS. J. and J. HOLMES' Establish-
ment being now a justly celebrated tur the beauty
and vast selection of its SHAWLS, they deem any remark
on their general Stock superfluous; at the same time they
beg to allude to the Enveloppe de Cachemire, which has
gained them so much notoriety as designers of novelty and
elegance ; and Ladies wishing to part with their Indian
Shawls will be most liberally treated with either in ex-
change or purchase.

THE CELEBRATED WOMEN,
OF ALL COUNTRIES,
THEIR LIVES AND PORTRAITS.
By the DUCHESS OT ABRANTEfi.

PROSPECTUS.

BIOGRAGPHY has become one of the prevailing literary
attractions of the present age ; but its pages are almost
exclusively devoted to men, whilst women seem doomed by
the unjust silence of biographers to be forgotten: and yet
what memorable examples of genius and virtue have not
the gentler sex shown in all countries and in every gene•
ration !
The Duchess of Abrantes, well known by her historical
memoirs. and Count Strarzewie, author of a distinguished
biographical work, have long been engaged in preparing to
set forth the claims of women to celebrity. These writers
intend to devote their future labours to the biography of
the celebrated women of all ages, and to op-n for them a
Pantheon where they shall again live in their genius, their
virtue, their talents, their services, and even their crimes,
whenever the latter, by a mixture of greatness and of
env gy, rise above the common standard, and forum part of
an extraordinary life worthy of being placed under the
eyes of generations to come.
The collection here announced will present not only the
moral characters of the most distinguished females, but
will likewise give their portraits, which will be equally
well treated with the historical part. Nearly all the public
and private galleries of Europe will he open to the able
artists selected to illustrate the present publication ; and
no portrait will be given to the public without proof of its
authenticity.
The Editors, it is expected, will be enabled to complete
the work in Forty or Fifty Numbers ; and, if found ex-
pedient, their publication will be accelerated so that the
whole may be issued within a shorter period of time.

THE COURT MAGAZINE, for JA-
NUARY, 1834, price 31. 6d.
The most favourable opportunity is offered for com-
mencing this richly embellished monthly publication with
the number for January, which begins the New Volume;
and those who may desire to have complete sets are in-
formed that although they consist of three volumes only,
they comprise nearly One Thousand Literary Articles, ob-
tained under the influential management of the Honourable
Mrs. Norton, from the most distinguished writers ; and
One Hundred splendid Illustrations of
PORTRAITS OF THE FEMALE NOBILITY,
LANDSCAPES OF NOBLEMEN'S SEATS, anti
ENGLISH AND FOREIGN COSTUMES,

produced by the most celebrated painters and engravers at
a cost of more than fifteen hundred pounds. The Re-
views of Literature, Music, the Drama, the Arts, and a
Register of events at home and abroad that have appeared
in each Monthly Number are also included. The pro-
prietors having constantly aimed at giving a lasting value
to the contents of the " Court Magazine," they now appeal
with satisfaction to the mast impartial Journals in the
kingdom as to the success of their endeavours, and select
the few following extracts as embodying the tenor of them
all:-- _

4 4 Mrs. Norton edits the 6 Coot t Magazine'with pecu-
liar good taste and ability. It stands without a rival in
the class of publications to which it belongs."—Times.
" Under the superintendence of the Hon. Mrs. Norton,.
and by her influence, we find congregated in the pages of
this work much and first rate varies ability."--John Bull.
" The plates are so costly, that it is a mirac!e to us
bow the Proprietors can get a remuneration for their
liberality. "—Atlas.
" The ' Court 'Magazine' attracts us, not only by the
beauty and usefulness of its embellishments, but the ability
of its papers, both in prose and verse. We shall treasure
up the costumes among works of art—and why should
we not, when such a man as the painter of the ' Bride-
maul' consents to furnish drawings? Ather,vsum.
" There is not an article which will not repay the
"
perusal, and many of them are excellent."—Morning Herald.
