FIFTEENTH VOLUME OF THE
MAGAZINE

THE January number of the Knickerbock-
Il er, n84O0 commenced the fifteenth
volume of that periodical. The work has
been so long before the public, and such has
been its constant increase in repute and cir
culation. that little is deemed necessary TO be
said in relation to its character, which IS
now thoroughly established in America, and
widely and favorably known abroad. AS a
new volume, however, affords a starting
point for new readers. il may be proper to
say, that it is the aim of the Knicferbocker
TO reach nearly every division OF general lit
~erature, and to comprehend IN It's ample
though transient survey. a VIDE range OF
amusement and instruction. Ii has pre-
scented, and will continue to present. inter-
esting articles, illustrating American society,
the times, manners, etc.; emf srtalnlng records
of travel, foreign and domestic; humorous
stories and sketches; tales of the sea, of pa
thos, and Of real life; poetry, and legends
and essays upon numerous and vprled themes;
with occasional brief articles, Of a more SOL
id description, intended 10 refresh the minds
of the curious and the learned; TO stimulate
inquiry in the young; and to excite in all
trains of profitable reflections, and give stIm-
ulous TO thought. In short, the divine, the
moralist, and the statesman; the humorous
observer, and the interpreter of nature; the
poet and the novelist. have made and will
continue to make the knickerbocker the re-
osiiory of their various treasures.
Among the many writers who have con
tributed original articles to tbs Magazine,
from its commencement. including matter in
store for the fifteenth volume, will he found
the following; and it ray he asserted, with
out fear OF contradiction. tha; 40 periodical,
native or foreign. can exhibit so distinguish
ed Il galaxy of high and various talent. Ii
should be added, moreover, that the most
eminent of these contributors are not the
least frequently encountered in the pages Of
the Knickerbocker. Mr.. lRvryG has had an
average Of three article. in the different de-
11rinentSof each number o: the work. since
his permanent connexion with it; Mr.. COOPER
followed up his first paper With Others
equally spirited; and itmay well he doubted
whether Mr.. liRY,yr has ever panued finer
lines than sThc Prairics,'.Thc Arch; Lover
IN his Mistress and his magnificent poem.
the Winds or whether Professor LONG
FELLOW haS ever exceeded his several beau
'i!ul 'pS1!ms Of Life or Mr.. WARE his

ve"tiser Of Jan, 8, 1910.
Mr. C.iniorms rs that on the day he left Ma.
Goa, report prevailed that all trade bad been
stopped NJ Canton. On the 9Th of November
The English had proceeded TO Hong. Kong to
attack the forls Of that place. The comman
der Of the fleet Of Chinese junks, which wero
so nearly destroyed by The Foliage, has been
imprisoned, and it is supposed he will loose his
head in consequence of not having captured the
Voltage. A number OF American vessels had
been doing very profitable carrying business
between Hong Kong and Canton; one vessel
had taken up 5000 bales Of cotton, for which
dollars per bale, as freight was paid. The two
American Houses mt Macoa had chartered two
ships, on board which they had shipped all their
effects, that they might be renhy AT II moments
warning, to leave The plnce--and which lhey
were in constant expectation OF being obliged to
do.
Captain Western Of the Morca, states that n
vessel belonging 10 Macao had Just arrived from
ilainan Island-,he Captain reported that an
American brig had been wrecked at that place;
near the wreck he saw two children, in Chinese
clothes, and that he took them TO be A.
merrans; and they belonged 10 the brig,
and that the Children pointed out their father to
The captain, who had heen made slave OF and
had collar on his neck.
On the ISt Of November, the Alligator and the
