NV cases, exceed the sums collected. Those in

ORIGINAL

III. n source of no little pride to the proprietor
Of the Lady's Book, that he frs, introduced into this
country thu plan of furnishing, along with a month
" periodical of elegant literature, embellishments Of
IN Attractive and costly character. The first euerav-
ing accompanying such a work were given by him the
6rst mezxotint engraving by him., the frat patterns
of lace work and embroidery were given BY him,
the 6r,t coloured plates of fashions were given by
him: thefrst music was given BY him. These are
things to which he would not refer. if some OF those
who have e..a yed to follow in bis footsteps, not con-
tent with initiating all he designs, even the form Of
his book, the size of his type. and the colour Of his
cover. had not ~fooIishly put forward cla'ns to orr
%ripality. and attempted to found a right to an ex.
elusive merit on doing that which they had bofw-
ed from his example. Bat what he has done hereto
fore in the way of establishment to his book, though
il far exceeded any effort Of those who strove to
copy his movements, cannot compare with Whist he
now means to do. His arrangement for this depart
ment of his work have been projected on the most
liberal scale of expenditnre, involving such an extent
of optloy as ha. never before been dreamed OF in
any periodical, European or American. As an evil
deuce of his Intentions, he now states that each
number Of the Lady's Book for the ensuing year, will
contain, at least,
Three Splendid EngrOrings:
embracing in the series every possible
variety Of subject. Historical. Landscape
Picturesque ToTtIa'tuIe, i"hdS'o''''e' LUZ a
blematical, and executed in every possible
variety Of the art; Mezzotint.L Line and Mez
zotint, Stipple, Medallion. and that mosl
chaste and expressive manner, the Line and
Dot combined. which has given such world.
wide celebrity t, the works Of modern ar
lists.
The American Guide Plates Of Fashions
coloured, will be given every month.
In order to give the greatest attractiveness
to the subjects of his embellishments, the
proprietor has gwen orders to various Amer.
lean Printers, of established %reputuotion,
who are now engaged in preparing expressly
for the Lady's Book, numerous Original Pic

some Of which are nearly completed. and
will soon be in the hands Of the engraver.

Waller SCOTS adrice to his Son Charles.
al cannot too strongly impress upon your
mind, that labor is the condition which God
has imposed on US in every station in life
There is nothing worth having that can be
had without it, from the bread that the
peasant wins with the sweat Of his brow. to
the sports by which the rich man must get
rid OF his ennui. The only difference be-
twixt them is, that the poor man labors to
get a dinner to his appetite, the rich man to
get an appetite to his dinner. As for know'-
edge, it can no more be planted in the hu-
man mind, without labor, than a field OF
wheat can be produced without the precious
use of the plough. Their. is, indeed, this
difference, that chance or circumstance may
so cause 1t, that another shall reap what the
farmer sows; but no man can be deprived,
whether by accident or misfortune, Of the
fruits of his own studies; and the liberal and
extended acquisitions Of knowledge which
ne makes are all for his own use. Labor,
my dear boy, therefore; and improve the time.
In youth our steps are light, and our minds
are ductile, and knowledge is easily LAID up.
But, il we neglect our spring. our summers
will be useless and contemplate. our harvest
will be cbaff, and The winter Of old age un-
respected and desolate."
Again: "Read. my dear Charles. read, and
read that which is useful. Man differs from
birds and beasts, only because he has the
means Of availing himself Of the knowledge
acquired by his predecessors. The swallow
builds the same nest whichits father and moth.
or built, and the sparrow does not improve
by the experience Of its parents. The son
Of the learned pig, if it had one, would be a
mere brute, only fit to make bacon OF. l,
is NOT so with the human race. Our ances-
tors lodged in caves and wigwams. where we
construct palaces for the rich and comforta.
BILE dwellings for the poor; and why is this,
but BECAUSE our eye is enabled to look up
on the past. TO improve upon our ancestors
improvements. and to avoid their errors?-
This can only be done by studying history,
and comparing it with passing events.
