pose This department of the Magazine, tA5gohI
no undue space will be allotted to it, is not to be
found in any other periodical, and the Publisher
is satisfied that it will not be less interesting and
valuable than 1t Is newell.
As il is the purpose of the Publisher to make the
Magazine tributary to useful designs, he has made
an arrangement with the justly celebrated T. s.
ARTHUR, Esq. by which that gentleman will Jc
directly engaged in joint superintendance, and
will bestow his best endeavors. Mr.. Arthur will
furnish for each number one or more of his life
like narratives, and such other matter as may be
adapted to the amusement and improvement of all
ages and classes, especially young ladies, to whose
interests the utmost care will be directed
Believing that proper taste in dress is essen
tal to the true development of female gratetuness
a portion Of the work will be devoted to an expo
sition and illustration Of the prevailing Fashions.
This will be strictly and exclusively under the
care of Miss Leslie, whose severe taste and ample
opportunities of observation will confer upon what
ever receives the stamp of her appreciation, high
authority. To enable her to select the newest,
latest and most recherche fashions, the Publisher
has made arrangements TO receive, by the Steam
ers the latest issues of Paris and London; and to
give the hgest possible effect TO the modes select
ed, he has made an engagement with a celebrated
Artist TO compose and modify the groups, so as to
render them highly effective. He therefore does
not hesitate to announce that his Fashion Plates
will be not only more correct, but will be execu-
ted in style of greater brillancy and elegance

Miss Leslie's Magazine will, as will be per-
celved from what has been stated, be emphatlca-.y
a Home Book, and il will contain matter especial
ly calculated for ornament TO the centre table. ~
reading and conversation in the Draw
ing Room and for the Family Fireside valuable
in the housekeepers department, and
unerring illustrations in the style of dress.
The embellishments will be in the first style OF
the pictorial arr. Each number will contain, at
least two Plates; and IN the course of the volume
there will be presented several Super6 Me1e0tiHts,
of the highest possible elegance and finish.
The contents of Miss Leslies Magazine will be
such to give it. in this respect, decided SUPERB
ority. No more reverence for the names will In-
duce the Editors to admit any article of question
able merit but everything admitted will be judged
of by its intrinsic worth, and nothing can possibly
find place which will not be calculated to pro-
mote the entertainment and edifcation of its rea-
ders.
1t will scarcely be credited that a Magazine,
such as has been described, can be afforded al the
low rate of 81 so per annnum, when but single
copy is subscribed for, but at the risk of consider
able loss, the publisher has determined to furnish
it for that sum, being just one half the price Of the
other principal Magazines. Indeed, as will be
seen by the suooined list of offers and premiums,
the publisher has resolved upon obtaining a wide
circulation for his publication, as it will require
an immense edition to repay the large outlays ne
cessary to be made.
