In the line of critical notices of new books de-
cided Improvement has been made upon the plan OF
the " PheDix and Budget'-and in the way of stories
an important reform has been adopted, which vii.
abolish the plan of giving long novels continued, pro-
vokingly, from number to number.
In order to place the work in the hands of such as
may not feel willing to pay the expensive prices
OF monthly magazines the proprietor has determined
to publish the work at the extremely low price
charged FOR its palmer and unillustraed predecessor
The price will therefore be 81 SO per year for sim
gle copy-hve copies for IS 90. This is giving about
four pages for one cent
Ii is desirable to receive orders at once that we
nay know how to regulate our issues
The trade will be served at very liberal rates
extremely anxious as we to extend the usefulness
If the work widely as possible.
