tory of this country interesting To every per-
son of taste and refnen ent,. aud TO all who
feel pride in their native land.
As a refined and elegant repository OF the
bellies letters, embracing every SUBJECT within
the range of polite literature ana the iIne arts,
the New York Mirror has received the spon-
tancous and universal commentator, not only
of the press of the United States, but OF Great
Britain.
The New York Mirrr is the oldest, and un-
questionable the cheapest periodical in Ameri-
ca Every number contains great variety OF
useful, interesting and amusing matter, on eve
ry subject connected with polite literature and
the fine arts; and they form, ut the end OF the
year, an immense volume Of four hundred and
sixteen imperial quarto pages, with vigncttic
title-pages, table of contents, splendid engrar-
ings, and fifty pieces Of popular music, arrang-
ed for the piano-forte, guitar, etc.--a library
lin itset-and all this afforded at the very tr
fling cost of five dollars year, a. sum almost
inadequate for the extraordinary equivalent
rendered to subscribers.
Our friends more numerous, our resour-
ces more ample, and our exertions to render
the Mirror the first periodicals shall be as un-
faging as ever. At home we have list of
nearly two hundred contributors, embracing
most of the talent and genius of America; and
we have established permanent correspond
ence both in London and Paris.
-Four superior engravlngs Will be given in
the course Of the new volume, from original
designs, painted and engraved expressly for
the work, by the most eminent artists. A
number of curious etchings on wood will also
be given.
In catering for the general taste, we shall
never omit to set aside q due proportion of
space for the especial amusement and ediica-
cation of our fair and gentle woman, in the
sunshine of whose favor the Mirror has so long
fourished as favorite journal
CoNDITf oNs.-The Mirror is published eve
ry Saturday, at No. l, Barclay street, next

AMERICAN CHRONOLOGICAL

In the present state of the public mind, pro-
badly no other instrument or means whatev-
can be rendered so efficacious in promulga-
ting, defending and establishing the principles
of phrenology, as we'll conducted Journal
1T IS unnecessary to state the partcula, adj
vantages which 4 regular periodical possesses
over all other agencies, or to urge the impor-
lance OF having, in this country, such a me-
dunn as it affords to make known to the pub
lie the facts and principles of the science.
The objects of this Jonrnal are to preseye
from oblivion the most interesting Of the very
numerous facts confirmatory and Illustrative of
the truth OF phrenology; to record the history
and progress o. the science; to show its trne
bearings on education physical, intellectual
and moral;) O.. the nature and treatment ofin-
saD!ty; on Jurisprudence and criminal leeisla-
.tion; on mental and moral philosophy; and to
point out ltsvarious applications to the i'm
provement ofsthe Institutions, manners, and
customs of soeiety.
Original chronological subjects will form
part ftlia journal, and also reviews of phre-
nological and chronological works; and.
as often as .acticable, we shall transferr to it's
pages the best articles in the Edinburgh Phre-
noiogicai Journal. There arc already enlist
ed as contributors to the work, many of the
ablest writer's and hest phrenoIogists in the
country, IA well as several foreign correspon-
cents We hope, as it progresses, to embody
in It's pages nearly all The matter published on
the science which is Of particular interest to
public or can be of permanent value for future
reference. We shall frequently accompany orr
facts and deiniation of character with illastra-
tive cuts.
1t is not with the desire or expectation Ct gain
dhat It IS offered to the community, bnt from
far higher consideratisns-from desire to
know and to pfonlulgate truth. It will be OBJ
Yions to all, that work ofthis character must
depend chiefly for support on the uoluntary pa
tronage and cooperation of those who are inter-
estei ia the subjects itdiscusses, aud it is no.

pROSpECTuS


nF the ssCRESENT CITY, The sub
" scrbers propose, on the first of October,
to commence the publication of daily news
paper, in New Orleans, bearing the above IT,
tie. The reasons for this course are numerous
and sufficient, but need not here be stated.
In answer to an inquiry, what will be the
character of the proposed publication! The
proprletors answer-that in relation to parti-
Fan questions, religious or political, it takes no
part whatever. Facts in relation to these, as
well as other subjects, will be occasionally sta
ted, but only matter of history, or passing
remark, without taking sides for one partv or
another. The editors are citizens, and in COM
mon with other freemen, viii vote for Wings
or Nanites-we suspect the former mostly
Just as they please but their paper will be
neither one nor the other. 1t will, however,
to the utmost of its ability, sustain the public
credit, by which we mean the credit of the
United States, our own State, and public insti.
tutions, nor less that of individuals, our own
included.
Passing events, domestic and foreign, will
be carefully chroncled, and placed before our
readers in as brief and comprehensive man
ner as possible. All important transactions
occurring IN the city, of whatever character.
VIII receive from us due notice; and sometimes
events not very important, may be rendered
public bodies, whether incorporated or not.
viii he observed, and full often become the
subjects of remark. The various amusements
OF our city, of whatever name, will be subjects
upon which we propose freely but literally to
comment.
Commercial and business Information will
form special item of the daily contents of
our sheet. At least once a week we propose
TO give brief but full view of the state of the
market. Arrivals of ships and steamboats
will be noticed, and facts learned hy them he
speedily communicated to the public.
As ours is at once a mercantile and family
paper, nothing of bitter or angry character.
nothing lndellcate or of immortal tendency.

Taste OF the pure, refined and virtuous; and es-
