PROSPECTUS
TO THE NEW VOLUME OF
THE u. STATES MAGAZINE
DEMOCRATIC REVIEW.

WYNN 1s
By an increase in the number of
pages, and by an alteration in its ty-
biographical arrangements, the guam
tity of matter heretofore furnished to
the readers of the Democratic Re-
view, will be increased in its future
numbers about seventy-fve per cent.
The Editor expects valuable aid to
his own efforts, during the course Of
the coming year. from a number OF
the most able pens of the great Dem
ocraric Party-together with that OF
others, in its purely literary depart
ment, TO which the same political de-
signation is not to be applied. Among
them may be particularly named:-
Bancroft, J. F. Cooper. Amos Ken
dali. Whittier, Sedgwick, GIlpin, But
Ter, Parke Goodwin, Hawthorne, Dl-
vezac, Paulding. A. H. Everett,
Brownson, Cambreieng, ]. L. Ste
phens, Tilden, Tasistro, Eames, Bry-
ant, Cass, C. ]. Ingersoll.
The Monthly Financial and Com
metcial articles, which have frequent
ly been pronounced by the most in.
tel!igent criticisms during the past
year in themselves alone worth the
subscription to the work, will be on
tinued from the same able hand.
An arrangement has been made by
which the Boston OHQrterly Reriew,
edited by Mr.. Brownson, will be
merged in the Democratic Review,
the latter being furnished to the sub
scribers of the former, and Mr..
Brownson being a frequent and regu-
lar contributor to its pages. 1t is
proper to state that Mr.. Brownson's
articles will be marked by his name;
though TO most readers they would
doubtless reveal themselves by their
internal evidence; and that it has
been agreed, underline circumstances,
that these contributions shall be indie
pendent of the usual liability TO edito-
rial revision and control-lhe author
alone having a similar responsibility
for whatever popularity of viewsthey
may contain, as though appearing in
the original work which has been
heretofore edited with such distin-
guished ability by himself.
Among other attractive papers in
preparation for the forthcoming vol
ume, will be found some personal
sketches, "reminiscences, and anec-
dotes of the private life of General
Jackson, from the pen OF an intimate
friend and member of his Cabinet.

tended to illustrate the numbers Of the
ensuing year, and which will be x e
cuted in a fine style of engraving, by
