BALTIMORE MONTHLY NISITER.
II is issued with far neater cover, on good paper
and type and is composed of closely printed matter
amounting TO nearly four hundred pages per volume
Each number will be accompanied by very fine
wood cut, illustrating the natural history and Gus
toms of the month for which each number is intend
ed. Each design will be accompanied by both prose
and poetic sketches not only of the general features
and holiday customs, but likewise Of the agricultural
Peculiarities Of every month. This will be a new
feature, and, II Is hoped, will render the MoNTHlY
NIsITER peculiarly welcome guest on every farm

with an engraving, representing Shakespeare Iams
the Shrew illustrated by a story from the pen Of TIE
late Charles Lamb, one Of the most popular author

abolish the plan of giving long novels continued pro-
vokingy, from number TO number.
