In the department of E.ngfavngs is Is we'll known
that Graham's Magazine has far surpassed any
periodical work ever published in ttiis or any 9th
er country. The highest ambition OF rival pub
fishers seems thus far TO have been TO mai ,tan
respectable imitation of the numerous costly and
beautiful works Of art with which the successive
numbers of this journal have been graced. In the
course of the succeeding volumes many importan;
new features will be introduced. Sartin and Said
the most celebrated Mezzotins Engravers in the
Union, and equals of the bes: in Europe, will COLI
tinue 10 furnish their exquisite productions: and
Rawdon, Wrigh; and Hatch, q Parker, 4 j.
Dick, GimbFsdge, JaCknan, Jones and others, of
New York, and Dodson, WEIGH and Waters,
Tucker and others, of Phladelphia-all among the
most eminent line engrayeTs Of the present centu-
~, have been engaged 20 furnish succession of
highly flashed steel engrayngs, superior 10 any
thathavo hitherto appeared in periodicals. Among
the pictures that will be engraved for for the vol
urnes in 1913, are several ORIGINAL PAINTINGS,
by Inghana, lnmao, Cole, Thompson, freeman,
Franquinet. and other distinguished artists. The
American periodicals have hitherto contained,
save in very few instances, only engIavings cop
led from foreign prints. The publisher of Gra-
hams Magazine will be the first to reform the
practice, and to make his work strictly original
in its embellishments we'll in its literary con-
! tants.

| The EDITORIAL DEPARTMENT win continue
to embrace notes current literature etc. and re-
/ views of all new American and foreign works of
| general interest or value. The criticisms of Gra-
I hams Magazine are acknowledged in all parts
the country to be superior i'll acumen, honesty and
/ independence to those of any contemporary. In
! deed, while majority of the monthly and quar-
/ terlv journals have become mere advertising ned-
ums for for the booksellers, in which every thing
Sin print is Unfortunately praised, this period
zeal is looked upon just and discriminating ar
| bitter between authors ana readers, 10 which both
/ have implicit confidence.
