THE FAMILY 'FRlENl3o,anWal;lished Magazine,
published upon the First and Fifteenth of Every Month,
price Twopence. Thirty-two pages, beautifully printed, and
neatly covered. _ _

The following is a type of the opinion formed of THE FA
MILY FRIEND, and expressed by upwards of three hundred
newspapers :—" We know of no Miscellany more deserving of
wide-spread circulation than The Fatnily Friend. It is empha-
tically the Magazine for a FAMILY. Its pages present some-
thing for all ; there is no member of the domestic circle for-
gotten, and no clasi.of Society overlooked. It is ITSELF a
Gentleman's 3faqazfne, a Lady's Magazine, a ,Servant's Maya-
tine, and a Working Man's Friend. It is a Mother's Magazine,
a Youth's Magazine. and a Child's Companion. It is, as its
title correctly declares, a ' Magazine of Domestic Economy,
Entertainment, Instruction, and Practical Science.' We have
received it into our home circle with great pleasure, for it is
not only a Family Visitor, but really a Family FRIEND. We
ranrot describe its contents, they are an omnium gatherum ;
a repertory of things pleasant and profitable, of things gay and
grave; selected with remarkably good taste, and edited with
much tact and judgment. It is a work capitally adapted to
cheer the happy fireside of home, and to aid the development
of social affection."—Bradford Observer.

The Work may be had complete, up to the end of June, 1851,
in Four Volumes, price 2s. 6d. each, beautifully bound.
These Volumes contain the Celebrated PRIZE ENIGMAS
and their Solutions, respecting which extraordinary Competition
has occurred. The Editor announces his intention of offering,
at Christmas next, a Prize of ONE HUNDRED GUINEAS, for
the best Solution of an ENIGMA to be competed for by GEN-
TLEMEN ; FIFTY GUINEAS for the Solution of another
Enigma, to be competed for by LADIES; and TWENTY-FIVE
GUINEAS for an ENIGMA to be competed for by JUVENILES
of both sexes. Further particulars will be given in the Num-
bers of THE FRIEND.

The FOURTH VOLUME contains a Quadruple Index to the
First Four Volumes, embodying about Three Thousand Five
Hundred References to matters of every day usefulness. The
Work forms a most perfect Encyclopaedia of Domestic Economy.
