GRAHAM,s MAGAZINE.
AND THE
LADIES' AND GENTLEMAN'S
WORLD OF LITERATURE
AND FASHION.

PhIiudelphl CasAeb, IN conjunction Wlth the
Cientlemdn's Magazine, which has every where
been pronounced the most readable and popular
of the day, will be opened on the First Of Janua
nv, lslI, with an array of contributors secured
by the union, oltalenI and fame, which no peri
odical in the country can boast or pretend 70 r-
! val The December number, will, however, be
| a specfmen of the new volume. The Volume
| will be opened with a new and beautiful type,
the finest white paper, and with the hrst Ol u Sc
| rias OF embellishments UNSURPASSED by any which
have vet appeared in any Magazine. The style
of elegance, the beauty and finish OF these illus
trations, and the extensive Improvements which
will be made in its typographical appearance,
| and above all, the tone ol its literary depart
| ment, by the brilliant array OF contrlbuto ~hose
articles have enriched the pages Ofeach num-
ber, will give il character, second to 40 yIGgG-
sine IN Ae Union. The character of the arti-
cles which shall appear in its pages, will be
equally removed from a sckly sentimentality,
| and from an affectltion of morality, but while
| a true delineaton of human nature in every vari-
ETY. of passion is aimed at, nothing shall be
! found in its pages to crimson tLe cheek of the
most pure.
The Literary Character will be sufficiently
rparanieed by the reputation of both Magazines
! thus united, for years past. Writers OF the first
! rank have been regular contributors to Their pa
ges, and the tales and sketches published in them
| have been widely copied and read, nnd the hrm
and independent tone of the criticisms upon the
| current literature of the day, has been every
where approved and commended.
| The List of Contributors embraces the names
| of most of the principal writers in America,w with
a respectable number of English authors.
Original articles have appeared, during the
! last wear, from the pens of the iollowing:-
Professors lngraham, John Frost, n
C Brooks and c + Wines; Captain Mar
ryatt, Morton, McMichaol, Esq, Hon K
Il Conrad, Esq, Willis, Gaylord Clark,

gomery, A M'Makn and L Holden, Esqs
! J Beauchamp Jones, Il Dow, Mrs L
r Elicit, DR. Thomas Dunu English.
In addition to this brilliant array of names
: known to fame, the distinguished services Of q
host olranonymous writers ofno ordinary abili.
ties, have given worth and character to the pa
ges of The Magazine. The series ofwell known
j nautical papers entitled, "Cruizins in the Last
! War, ,nhav9 had a run, unequalled by any series
published in any Magazine, for years. The au
thor promises to open the first of new series o.
; Tales of tho Sea, and from his known abiite!
as depictor of sea scenes and life, much may
, be relied upon from him in maintaining the pop
ularty of the Magazine. Papers may be ex.
, pected during the volume, also from the author
of the well known articles entitled, ''Ihe Log o.
: Old Ironside." The author of"Syrian Letters .
will also lend his powerful and graceful pen, tC
; sustain and increase The reputation of the work
The valuable aid of The author Of"Leaves from
Lawyers Port Folio" has been secured,- and
we may expect something still more thrilling
; from the capacous stores which a long life in
the profession has enabled him to amass. An
occasional Cht-Chat, with "Joremy Short" and
SOLVER Oldlaow," is also promised; with va
rety of choice articles, in prose and verse, from
various writers ofcelebrity, as Contributors tC
the prominent Magazines Of the country. The
editors OF both Magazines continue their service,
under the new arrangement. With such al
+ array of talent, Magazine ofanriOailed attrac
tons may safely be promised the coming vol.
