The great demand which has existed for the

duced the subscriber to present 10 the public a
Monthly Magazine, similar in its general features
N ,be popular works referred to, bct with some
claims to attention which they do not possess. For
this purpose he has secured the aid of MISS L.
LESLIE, universally known as the first female
writer Of the ace, and particularly distinguished by
her graphic sketches of manners, and her success
in illustrating and correcting fashionable iollies
As the writer OF various books, and contrbu-
tor 10 Godeys Ladys Book, Grahams Magazine,

still more available for the general good. Besides

embracing general suggestions for the regulation
of domestic establishments, hints and reflections
useful to housekeepers. practical advice, numer-
ous receipts never before published, and all other
things that may be made subservient to the puT-
pose This department Of the Magazine, though
no undue space will be allotted to it, is not to be
found in any other periodical, and the Publisher
is satisfied that it will not be less interesting and
valuable than il is nevel.
AS tits the purpose of the Publisher to make the
Magazine tributary TO useful designs, he has made
an arrangement with the Justly celebrated I. ).
ARTHUR Esq. by which that gentleman will be

furnish for each number one or more of his life
like narratives, and such other matter as may be

ages and classes, especially young ladies' to whose
interests the utmost care will be directed.
Believing that proper taste in dress is essen
tial TO the true development OF female grateuness,
a portion of the work will be devoted TO an expo
stion and illustration of the prevailing Fashions.
This will be strictly and exclusively under the
care of Mss Leslie whose severe taste and ample
opportunies of observation will confer upon what
ever receives the stamp of her appreciation, high
authority. To enable her to select the newest
latest, and most recherche fashions, the Publisher
has made arrangements to receive, by the Steam
ers the latest issues of Paris and London; and to
give the lgest possible effect 10 the modes select
ed, he has made an engagement with celebrated
Artist to compose and modify the groups, SO as to
render them highly effective. He therefore does
not hesitate to announce that his Fashion Pletes
Will be not only more correct, but will be execu-
ted in a sivle Of greater brilliancy and elegance
than any which can be found III any other publi-
cation.
