quarto for binding, will receive both for
$3.50 in advance. We will cheerfullv
preserve their files of the quarto for any
such who may desire 1t.
The subscribers are extremely solicit
Gus that there be no mlsconception on the
part of their patrons in regard to the two
editions of their paper. The quarto IS
commenced in Difference to the Solicita-
tions of great number of their friends,
who have expressed strong desire that
the New Yorker should appear in form
more susceptible of preservation than the
present. 1t is neither anticipated that it
will receive patronage at all commensu-
rate with that of the folio edition. They
would frankly express their conviction
that for those whose interest in a Journal
expires with the week in which it reaches
them the latter will be decidedly prefera-
bic, aside from the difference in price
Accordingly when an orderfor "TheNew-
Yorker" simply, without specification, is
sent to them, the latter will invariably be
forwarded.
It is our earnest desire that all those
who may incline to patronize the QuArto
New-Y orker, will apprise US of the fact
before the regular commencement of the
volume, March 26.) The specimen
number will be forwarded to all indis-
criminately who may signify desire to
examine it, without subjecting us to post
aee) and as an additional inducement tc
an early subscription we hereby offer tc
send the intervening numbers of the folio
Newly orker gratis to each subscriber fol
the Quarto, from the receipt of advance
payment up to that time.

GREAT AMERICAN WORK

Illustrated arith 6eta0een three and four
hundred Engr0Ulmgs.
A MEXICAN JOURNAL OF SCI
II ENCE AND USEFUL KNOWL-
EDGE.-So numerous are the produce
tons of the Press, in this period of cheap
literature, that an individual who proposes
to make an addition to them, should be
well convinced that the wants ofthe com
munitv are such as require it. But every
class requires a book adapted to itself, and
that book should contain such matter as
will convey new and interesting Informal
ton, not speculative and useless descrip-
ton, which only retards the acquisition of
more solid attainments. Practical and
useful knowledge, adapted to the necessi-
ties Of society, will always find a market,
and be sought after with an avidity pro-
porlonate to its estimate and importance
The thirst for knowledge which so high
Iy distinguishes the present period, shsuld
be hailed with universal satisfaction, and
it is a cheering reflection, that the door is
so wide] y thrown open, that none are so
poor as to be debarred. The success that
has attended the dissemination ofthe Pen
ny Magazine, has induced the proprietors
to issue this prospectus, for the publication
of the AMERICAN JOURNAL OF SC1EN-
T1F1c AND USEFUL KNOWLEDGE, and it is
hoped that its merits will be such as to
entitle it to liberal share of public pat
ronage, without clashing with the interests
of others, or Of undertaking the merits
which many of them undoubtedly pos
sess. The Editor will take a general
range through the field of usefulness
The JOURNAL embraces Biographical
Sketches OF eminent men, Historical Tales,
. Discoveries, Inventions, Natural History,
| Chemistry, Shrewd Observations; &c. all
calculated to expand the intellect, improve
the moral powers and convey useful in
! formation.
Each number will contain numerous
Engravings, illustrative of the subjects
described.
Anumber is to be published on the 18th
of every month, containing between forty
and fifty imperial octave pages, and be-
tween twenty and thirty engravings; with
printed covers.
u Terms-S2 per annum, payable
in advance-l83-4 cents per single num-

FoR THE TELEGRAPH.
THE VOICE FROM AFRICA, AND
49, IT'S ANSWER.
A voice isheard from Afric'sshore,
IT'S louder than the Atlantic roar,
I've long time bled at every pore;
o pity now-oppress no more.
IT'S said you're christians, and if so,
Then feel for others misery-woe-
One prayerful thought on me bestowi
Olet my sons and daughters go.
fyou shall disregard their cry,
Remember there is one on high,
Who will refuse to hear your cry;
When you ask mercy-he'n deny.
But harki Ihear different sound,
From freemen here on christian ground,
From thousands who were never bound !;
IT'S Liberty--heart cheering sound.
The annals ofthe gone by year,
Proclaim aloud, the time is near,
When Afro shall no longer fear,
When she shall drop the final tear,
This tale of woe that's now begun,
Shall circulate with every sun,
TIL nations all respond as one,
= Poor Afric's free--the work is done"

RELIGIOUS BOOKS.

AS an illustration Of the increasing
taste of the community for works of re-
ligious character, we are permitted to state
that Messrs. Leavitt, Lord & Co., theolog-
ical booksellers of this city have publish
ed during the past year, 100000 volumes
of moral and religious publications, of
which number 100000 are strictly reli-
gious. The largest publishers in the
city, Uhe Messrs. Harpers) we believe
have never published in any one year more
than $4,000 volumes of books including
those of every description. We presume,
Gf we exclude school books) that the
whole number of religious books publish
ed in Newly York, is now greater than
that ofall other books taken collectivel ".
While we are onthis subject we will
add that when we came to this city to es-
tablish the Observer, in the year 1928, the
whole number of volumes of religious pc
riodicals issued annually, including those
ofal religious denomination, was less, if
we were correctly informed, than s1r
thousand. while the volumes of literary
and political periodicals, were six or eight
times this number. A few years since
the calculation was again made, and 1t
was found that the number of volumes of
religious and philanthropic periodicals
had increased to upwards of 100000, and
that it exceeded that ofthe literary period
icals taken collectively. The penny pa
pers we presume would now turn the bal
ance the other way.-N. Y O5Surtr
