number for January, 1913. will be the frs. of IN
35th volume. Its long and universally successful
career, from its commencement with a few hun
dred subscribers, until the present time when il
has circulation of fifty thousand copies month,
is perhaps good an evidence of its great and in-
crsasiug merit as the publisher has it in his power
to Offer To his old subscribers he trnsts no as
surance necessary of his determination 10
maintain its present ascendancy over all the rival
periodicals of the country. The engagement, da-

ER, DANA, IoNGFELLow. lioEFmAN, MANCUR.
ETC., of high regulations in the literary world, as
regtiiar contributors, IN addition to previous list
embracing many of the FIRST names in the nation is
n sufficient guarantee that the work will continue
to be the principle medium of communication be-
tween the best authors and the public. Among

Graham's Lady's and Gentleman's Magazine
| hes been from It's establishment more than any
other the fayorite periodical of he greater sex.
Though its plan does not entirely exclude articles
of the most important character, stch as have raj
sed Blackwood's and some other foreign journals
to their high influence and reputation, its pages
will be principally devoted to what usually term
cd light literature twill be distinguished from
other publications Of similar aims by the lterarv
and artistic merit OF its contents. While those Of
other works are unknown or Anonymous, the con-
:ribGtors TO this are the most eminent authors oil
our age and country; the very creators, founders.
OF our National Literature. Especially is it cell
ebrated as containing the choicest predictions OF
the finest female writers of the time. Every mum
Der contains gems which may be appealed TO with
pride by the sex as vindicating their Intellectual
emiuence.
SPLENDID EMBELLISHMENTS.
In the department ofEngrayings ii is well known
that Graham's Magazine has far surpassed any
periodical work ever published in tits aRg 9th
er country. The highest ambition of rival pub
fishers seems thus far TO have been to mai1tain
respectable imitation OF the numerous costly and
beautiful works of art with which the successive
numbers of this Journal havs been graced. In the
course of the succeeding volumes many important
new features will be Introduced. Sartin and Sadd
the most celebrated Mezzotnt Engravers in the
Union, and equals of the best in Europe, viii con
tinuo to furnish their exquisite predictions: and
Rawdon, Wright and Hatch, q Parker, A l.
Dick, GimbEedge, Jackinan, Jones and others, o
New Y ork, and Dodson. Welch and " aters,
Tucker and Others, of Philadelphia-all among the
most eminent line engravers of the present centu-
~, have been engaged 10 furnish a succession of
! highly finished steel engravings, superior 10 any
thathave hitherto ap9eased in periodicals. Among
ii Z
emes in 1913 are several ORIGINAL PAINTINGS,
by Ingham, Inmar, Cole, Thompson, Freeman,
rranquinet, and other distinguished artists. The
American periodicals. have hitherto contained,
save in a very few instances only engravings cop
led from foreign prints. The publisher Of era
hams Magazine will be the first to reform the
practice. and to make his work strictly original
in its embellishments as wen sin its literary con-
tents
Our PGRTRAIT GALLERY.-One of the new fea-
lures of the coming volumes Igil be the introduc-
tion of Portraits of the Contributors 10 Grahams

TO embrace notes on current literature etc. and
views of all new American and foreign works OF
general interest or value. The criticisms OF Sra

the country 10 be superior in acumen, bonesty and
independence to those of any contemporary. In
deed, while a majority of the monthly and quar-
tery journals have become msre advertising Inedi-
ums for for the booksellers, in which every thing
in print is Unfortunately praised, this period
cal is looked upon just and discriminating ar
bitter between authors and readers, ia which both
have implicit confidence.
