KNTTH multiplied resources for rendering the
w Nsw WORLD more valuable than ever as
compendious newspaper and repository of elegant
literature, enter upon the SECOND volume (folio)
on the Gath Of October, dressed in beautiful garb
OF neic type, cast expressly for the purpose. 1t
will therefore be fitting time to commence new
subscriptions, well as for the renewal Of those

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 foreign) new and valuable works by
Tafourd, D'Israeli, Thomas Moore, Miss Milford,
Mrs. jameson, &. 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
World. In addition 10 works of interest by these
eminent authors it has contained the cream Of the
periodical literature of the day, as well as original
articles from the pens of some of the most popular

vengence OF all the ounces We shall, in conclu-
sion, earnestly strive to render our sheet no, only
worthy of the unparalleled favour has xperianced,
but of continually extending circulation. While
continue TO furnish with all possible promtitude
the most attractive literature of the day, we shall,
means enlarge, afford that compensation to
native authors, which may induce them to Ike
the New World the medium for presenting TO tho
public their best productions Our excellent Lon
don correspondent will be continued, and due at
tention will be paid TO the comercal, agricultural
and news departments of our paper.
