"ITH multiplied resources for rendering the
w New WoRLD more valuable than ever as
a compendous newspaper and repository OF elegant
literature, we enter upon the second volume (foio)
on the Gath Of October, dressed in beautiful garb
of ne,C type, cast expressly for the purpose. 1t
will therefore be fitting time to commence new
subscriptions, as well as for the renewal of those
which may then expire.
During the first year of the existance Of the
New WoRLD, it has acquired reputation and
circulation superior TO any weekly paper in the
Country; and has furnished to its subscribers during
that period (besides all the current OF the day,
domestic and ioreign) new and valuable works by
Talfourd, DIsrae Thomas Moore, Miss Milford,
Mrs. Jameson, G. Dickens, Ainsworih, Knowles,
Bulwer, Marryat, and others-works, which in Lon-
don could not be purchased for fifty times the
amount Of the subscription price of the New
World. In addition TO works of interest by these
eminent authors, it has contained the cream of the
periodical literature of the day, well as original
articles from the pens of some of the most popular
writer's OF America, among whom may mention
Miss Sedgwick, Orville Dewey, Professor Lonsfe-
low, the author Of "Y ankee Notions" Simms
Street, &c. &c.
In poIiticks we shall, as hitherto, maintain an
armed neutrality.-Our columns as heretofore will
be unobjeconabe in a moral point of view. In
criticism we shall, ia justice to the public, mantan
perfect independence, even though we incur the
vengence of all the ounces. We SHALL in concu-
sion, earnestly strive to render sheet not only
worthy of the unparalleled favour it has xperianced
but of continually extending circulation. While
we continue to furnish with all possible promtitude
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 medium for presenting 10 the
public their best productions Our excellent Lon
don correspondent will be continued and due at
tenton will be paid TO the comercal, agricultural
and news departments Of our paper.
