The New YORKER.

TNHE Publishers of The New Y Yorker respect
"A fully announce the commencement OF
New Volume of their journal on the 2Ist Of
September next, being the Eighth Of the double
Quarto Edition, and completing The Sixth year
of It's publication in the Folio or common news
paper form.
The New-Yorker is now so widely known as
to render superfluous, any detailed delineation
Of its character and objects. Suffice it here that
the work is intended TO sustain the reputation OF
a Weekly Literary Journal not inferior ina bility
and standing to any on either side of the Allan
tic. About two-thirds of its columns are devot-
ed to the best Original and Selected Literature,
comprising Reviews, Essays, (Scientifc AMI
Literary,) Tales, POEMS choice Extracts from
New Works, Biographical and Historical
Sketches, &c. &c. In this department, Critical
Notices of nearly all new publications of inter-
est will be given The remaining columns will
be devoted to condensed abstract OF the Po-
litical and General Intelligence of the day, Do
meStic and Foreign. Under this head, the re-
turns of all important Elections throughout the
United States will be carefully compiled and
compared with those of former Elections, SO as
to give clear exhibit of the relative strength of
each political party in the several States. All
political movements of interest will likewise
be briefly and impartially chronicled. In fine,
il will be the general aim ofthiS paper to be first
useful and instructive, then agreeable and en-
tertaining. The steady support through the
laSt three years oil an average OF more than
5000 subscribers warrants the belief that the
conduct of the work has not disappointed the
hopes of its friends, while it has secured the de-
cided approval Of an intelligent public. Such
as 1t has been il will continue to be, with the
exception of the aid already secured in the Ed
itorial Department, to which it is hoped that
still further strength will be added by arrange
mentS now in progress. If unwearied exertion
and fixed resolve TO spare no labor or expense
which may tend TO elevate the character oftheir
work can avail anything, the undersigned are
justified in cherishing confidence that their
journal will at any rate maintain the standing
1t has already attained in the public eStima-
tion H. GREELEY & co.
