ORIGINAL

ltis n source of no little pride to the proprietor
of the Lady's Book, that he frs, introduced into this
country the plan of furnishing, along with a month
" periodical Of elegant literature, embellishments of
an attractive and costly character. The first enSrav-
ing accompanying such a work were given by him the
first mezzotint engraving by him, the first patterns
Of lace work and embroidery were given by him,
the first colourcd plates of fashions were given by
him; thefirst music was given by him.. These are
things to which he would not refer, if ONE of those
who have cssayed to follow in his footsteps, not con-
tent with initiating all he designs, even the form of
his book, the size of his type. and the colour of his
cover. had not foolishly put forward clasns to ori-
%ginality, and attempted to found a right to an ex-
elusive merit on doing that which they had borrw-
ed from his example. Bat what he has done hereto
fore in the way Of embellishment TO his book, though
it far exceeded any effort Of those who strove to
copy his movements, cannot compare with what he
now means to do. His arrangement for this depart
ment of his work have been projected on the most
liberal scale of expenditare, involving such an extent
of outlay as has never before been dreamed of in
any periodical, European or American. As an evil
dencc of his intentions, he now states that each
number of the Lady's Book for the ensuing year, will
contain, at least,
Three Splendid EngrDrings:
embracing in the series every possible
variety of subject, Historical, Landscape,
Picturesque, Portraiture, Imaginative, En-
blematical, and executed in every possible
variety of the art; Mezzotint, Line and Mez-
zotint, Stipple, Medallion, and that most
chaste and expressive manner, the Line and
Dot combined, which has given such world
wide celebrity to the works OF modern ar
fists.
The American Guide Plates Of Fashions,
coloured, will be given every month.
