As far as can be discovered, there IL but one opn

Everything relating to the character of the coming
administration will be in the highest degree inter-
esting. There is call, too, for Magazine Of the
literary character proposed. The two Leading Re.
views Of this country published but seldom, and
are confined to the heavier branches of literature
and science; and though there are lighter periodi-
Gals Of very considerable merit, there is wide in
terval between the two, which may be advanta.
geously filed without detriment to either. The
Editor is young man, but he trusts that with the
promised assistance of several able Writers, and an
entire devotion to it on his own part, the Month,
will be found worthy of the patronage it solicits y
CONDITIONS
l. The work will be issued in monthly numbers
containing 70 pages 8vo, which, with the title page
preface, and index, will make an annual volume Of
864 pages. s
2. The price is FIVE DOLLARS year, payable IN
Advance. A suitable allowance will be made tc
agents who take large number ofcopies.
5. The mechanical execution Of thework shall b.
good and the monthly numbers shall be faithfully
transmitted according to order.
4. Each number will be published on the fifteenth
day of the month of which it bears date.
Payment in advance is required for the following
reasons The expenses Of new establishment
make it desirable and proper. Some risk is incur
red by the publishers; and it is but reasonable thai
patrons should afford the accommodation Of paying sc
small sum, at the commencement of the year. II
Europe, periodical works are paid for, either in ad
vance, or when each number is taken This prac
tce is fast gaining in the United States, and it h
hoped may become universal. In that case, the lit

bers, and so discouraging, and sometimes ruinoui
to publishers, are not suffered to exist. ~
