EEyHE primary object of this work will
 -a-be, to check the rapid progress of two alarming evils, so fatally prevalent in our country, viz: lntemperance and lnfdefity, which, like the cankerworm, are stripping the walks Of life of all its flowers, and leav- ing the moral world a leahess desert. To do this the more efectually, we shall pour tray in the most vivid colors, the deformity and deleterious consequences of these most deadly evils, by interesting moral tales, sketches, fragments, essays, and scriptural illustrations. We shall endeavor to cher- ish in the hearts of our readers, the sublime and benevolent sentiments of the blessed gospel of Jesus Christie exhibit the beau- ties and rewards of virtue in all their cap tiyating lovliness-to awaking the better feelings of human nature-to cultivate the SOCIAL and DOMESTIC afections-to deal the mind through the most delightful aven- ues, to the bowers of happiness and peace ito elevate and enlarge the conceptions ito imbue the understanding with the most exalted ideas Of inimitable attributes and perfections of the Great Diyinity--thereby leading mankind to !" fear God and keep his commandments"
 To accomplish these designs, we shall call to our aid all the eloquence of truth, clothed in the most facinating forms-such as moral essays, simple or pathetic tales, varying " from grave to gay, from lively to serene''-poeticai sketches-didactic articles in verse-and sometimes to enli- ven our pages, tale of fancy-a humorous story--an aIegory-a ballad-or a song will receive an insertion, h each and in all, the great end and aim will be, to con- vey moral and religious sentiments, thro' 2 pleasing medium, to the aeart-or, in other words, to blend C the useful with the sweet.o
 Tn order to furnish our readers with the choicest articles both of poetry and prose ito encourage genius and foster talent generous premiums will be awarded from time to time, for original articles furnish ed. The entire services of distinguished literary gentleman, late from London, who has for some time past been contributor to the English periodicals, are engaged for the New-Y ork Amulet. With these claims for patronage, the work will be submitted to the consideration of candid generous public. Should we succeed in our endea- yors to blend usefulness and instruction with amusement and delight, our object will be accomplished.
 CeNnITIoNs.-The New-York Amulet published by an association of gentlemen, will be beautifully printed onffne, white paper, Alto size, with entire new type. Its typographical execution shall equal that of any similar publication in America. It will be afforded to city subscribers in Phi ladelphia and New York, who will receive them by carrier, at one dollar and twen- ty-fve cents the volume, handsomely CO., vered for preservation.
