 For the best NOV FL, on a National sub ject, for that puplication. But by the re :. port of the Committees, which Is sabioin- ed, the manuscripts aubmltted to their perusal, are not of that character which would warrant the award of that premium. The time is therefore extended, as is also the amount, which, 1t IS to be hoped, will induce native talent to exertion.
 The undersigned, aCommittee selected for that purpose, have examined number of Manuscript Novels, offered as compet- itors for Premium, proposed to be given by the publishers of the Novelst's Nigga zine, to the author of the best Novel, on National subject o
 While the undersigned are of opinion l that several of the Novels submitted to ttrSis i"sPcotiOns posseee oonsid era Io m Q r.- It, they dc not think any one Of them is altogether of such description as would warrant them in awarding the premium. DAVID PAUL BROWN. JOSEPH k. CHI ANDLER.

Beasley sad, she was the pest nag of Ter size he bad ever seen, and that she was ia friend to poor man In strange country losing on all his other horses, he could :, with confidence, bet his fast dollar on her, whenever she started fur foar mile heat. Ills grandam was the equally celebrated mare Maid-of-tl,e- Oaks by iuportedSpread Eagle, one of the best four mile uags of her day in Virginia, his z. grandam, which was also the dam ofNancy Air, was by i'm ported Sbork, g. g. g. dam by Rocking ham, g. g.g. g. dam By Gallant, 2. 2. 2. dam by True Whig, g. 2. 2. 2. 2. 2. dam by Rogu!tis.
