| These beautiful cngravings will therefore form
feature of Grahams Magazine, in every num-
Der, 80 that we shall be able to distance any thing
like competition on this ground These plates
are the most expensive that can be got up for
magazine of large CIRCULATION, in consequence of
the great price of prmting.-bcing more than
double that Of line engraviugs- and the neccssi-
" u redupllcatlng the plates edition Gr4tsa-
dy rendering it necessary that two or three plates
Of the same subject must be prepared tor every
number i'll which they are used. We now print
an edition greater than that of any contemporary
for the last year, and confidently assert that at
the same rate OF rrcreasc we shall issue iii 1892,
an edition of not less than s. ,0O9 copies monthly,
and sail soon have an edition uneqiallud i'll the
! history Of magazine Publishing.

| We have also entered into a distinct and ucr-
m0Rant arrangement with Rowdon. Wright,
| Hatch and Sn,lllic nR. Will, a l.. Dick ESD. of
! New York, for series OF 81 lie ibid cngravines to
be rot up in style uiis urplSScd by any that have
ever been done III this country. The wide spread
fame of these artists is sufficient guarantee OF
the character of the work we shall receive from
| their hands. So that with such an organization
we my surely defy competition in tn. way of
embellishments, t,low the world patcrn for 9TH
ers 10 follow in the way Of liberal and judicous
expenditure, and fix new era III the history Of
of magazine publishing in this country. 1t is
lib. pon American artists to presume that the
worn out plates Of old English ANIMALS are to
compare with or be preferred, to the beautiful
creations of their gcnIus taste and skill.

RICHLY COLORED .ElSIfO.Nw.
In compliance with the almost unanimous wish
Of our lady subscribers, we shall furnish them
with beautiful and correct plate of cushions and
shall also give the style, for gentlemen, which
has been decidedly popular with both sexes, and
has rendered the work the Textbook of Fashion
the Union over. TIrse fashion plates will be
drawn from original designs from Paris and
London; and may always be depended upon as
the prevailing style in Philadelphia and New
York torthc month in which they are issued.
These, however; shall in no wise interfere with
the regular and cEoicc cngravinas, and music
which accompany each number G. &c magazine;
as we shall not suffer ourselves to be surpassed in
number or beauty Of illustrations by any other
work, but Shall maintain the position which we
have assumed, Of leading all others in the rich
var Of
establishment.
THE LITER AIRY CHARACTER,
The reputation of the Magazine thus far would
be sufficient guarantee for the future, but that
it may be seen that nothing bas been lett undOnc
to maintain every department of the work and
to elevate the literary, as well as the pictorial
department, we beg leave to announce host Q f
talented and elegant American writer's.
The List Of Contributors.
In addition to the old contributors whose names
and articles have given high celebrity to the
Magazine, number Of new ones are added, of
worth and note, 50 that we may fairly say that
we have
The Strength Of AMERICAN Talent Enlis-
Jcd in the HOrk.
The distinguished services Ola host of anony-
nous writers of no ordinary abilities will give
worth and character to the pages of the Maya
zine. The series of the well known nautical pa
pcrs entitled Cruising in the Last War; and
"Thc Refer of 49," have had a run unequacd
BY any series published in any magazine for years.
The author promises 10 open | new series OF
EalFS OF iae SEA.
and from his known abilities as a dCpctcr of sea
scenes and life, much may be relied upon from
him III maintaining the popularity Of the maya

a variety Of choice articles in prose and verse,
from various writers ofcelebrity, as Contributors
to the prominent magazines Of the country.
Sterling Criticisms.
The critical department shall still form distinc-
tive charater Of the work. and is under the con-
troll of a gentleman of critical acumcn and repute
long establisled and held every where second to
uonc for sagaciy, and an honest. fearless Indc
The review ofbooks may therefore be expected
be candid and entirely free from the inane putin
which marks the booksellers hack but shall By
thoroughly impartial and severely Just.
SPORTS and PASTnIES
This interesting feature of the Magazine shall
be preserved as important to young sportsmen,
and in fact to all young and old, who delight in

TINE If PUBLICATION
The work will be published on the first of the

phia. In all the principal cities, agents have
been established, to whom the Magazine is for
wardcd, prior to the time Of issuing it, so that
they may be delivered to resident subscribers on
the FIRST of the month This is an important ar
rangemcnt to distant subscribers, who become
tired, mportunato, and eventually discontinue
