1t affords us more satisfaction TO be able to
state, thatwe have made arrangements with Mr..
SARTAIN, the accomplished mczZotint engraver,
whose plates have contributed much TO the
beauty Of the magazine heretofore, by which we
secure his splendid me-:o;intS for this lcork Alone
No other magazine Of this kind can have them
without permission from
This we take to be good move and although
the preference is purchased by us at IA very heavy
exp ense we are confident that nothing can be got
up to equal them in beauty, or to compete with
them in popularity. The engagement is pcrma-

In additio to those, we have secured the bu-

of N Y. that there may be no disappointment
as to number or regularity These will be equal
to any thing published, SO that we are able con-

These beautiful cngravings will therefore form
a feature Of Grahans Magazine in every mum |

like competition on this ground. These plates |
are the most expensive that can be got up for a |

the great price Of printng-bcing more than
double that of line eneravings-and the ncccssi-

Of the same subject must be prepared tor every
number in which they are used We now print

the same rate Of increase we shall issue in 1872.
