PROSPECTUS OF
THE NEW WORLD.


The largest, cheapest, hdnfsomest, and most
comprehensive newspaper IN the United States.
EDITED ny PARK BENJAMIN e. EPEs SARGENT.
VWTITH multiplied resources for rendering
w the New WORLD more valuable than ever
DIS oompendious newspaper and repository OF
elegant literature, we enter upon the second vol
ume (iolo) on the 2ith of October, dressed In n
beautiful garb OF neic iype, cast expressly for the
purpose. twill be therefore a lifting time to
commence new subscriptions, as well as Tor the
renewal of those which mayhem expire.
Owing the first year OF the existence OF me
New World, il has acquired reputation and
circulation superior to that OF any weekly paper
in The country; and has furnished to its subscrl
tiers, during that period, (besidos all the curren,
news of the day, domestic and ioreign) new ana
valuable works by TalIourd, D'lsraeIi, Thomas
Moore, Miss Milford, Mrs. jameson, Charles
Dickens, Ainsworth, Knowles, Bulwer, Marryat,
and others works, which in London could not
be purchased for fifty times the amount of the
subscription price of the New World. In addi-
ton to works of interest by these eminent au-
thors, it has contained the cream OF the pcnodi
cal literature Of the day. ms well as original article
from the pens OF some OF the most popular writer
of America, among whom VIC may mention Miss
Sedgwick, Olville Dewey, Prolesso Longellow,
the author Of Yankee Notions,' Simms, Street,
&c, &c.
In politics we shall, as hitherto, maintain an
armed neutrality. Our columns will rs hitherto
be understandable in moral point of view. In
criticism we shall, in justice 10 the public, main
tain perfect Independence, even though we
incur the vengeance of all the dances. We shall
in conclusion, earnestly strive to render our sheet
not only worthy Of the unparalleled favor il has
experienced, but Of continually extending cir
culation. While we continue to furnish with all
possible promtilude the most attractive literature
Of the day, we shall, as our means enlarge, afford
that compensation TO native authors, which may
induce them TO make the New World the medi-
nm, for presenting 10 the public their best pro-
auctions. Our excellent London correspondence
will be continued, and due attention will be paid
to the commercial, agricultural and news depart
ments of our paper

others on the renewal of previous subscriptions,
