EDITED nj PARK BENJAMIN AND rrEs SARGENT,
VHIITH multiplied resources for rendering the
w New WonLD more valuable than ever as
a compendious newspaper and repository of elegant
literature, we enter upon the second volume (foo)
on the oath Of October, dressed in beautiful garb
of ne,U 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 eIisance Of the
New WoRLD, il has acquired reputation and
circulation superior to any weekly paper in the
country and has furnished to its subscribers during
that period (besdes all The current news OF the day,
domestic and foreign) new and valuable works by
Talfourd, D'Israeli, Thomas Moore, Miss Milford,
Mrs. Jameson, e.. Dickens, Ainsworth, 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
Would. In addition 10 works of interest by these
eminent authors, il has contained the cream OF the
periodical literature of the day, well original
articles from the pens of of the most popular
writer's of America, among whom we may mention
Miss Sedswick, Orvle Dewey, Professor Longfel-
low, the author OF yankee Notions" Simms,
! Street, &c. &c.
| In politcks we shall, as hitherto, maintain an
armed neutrality.-Our columns as heretofore will
! be unohieclionablc in a moral point of view. In
criticism we shall, in justice to the public, mantaia
perfect independence, even though we incur the
! vengcnce of all the ounces We shall, IN conclu.
sion, earnestly strive to render our sheet not only
worthy of the unparalleled favour it has experianccd
| but of continually extending circulation. While
we continue to furnish with all possible prom,itudc
the most attractive literature of the day, shall
us our means enlarge, afford that compensation 10
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
tention will be paid TO the comerciai, agriculture
and news departments of our paper.
