ell aud original plan, with a Steel Engraving |

The New Mirror will appear with many
striking and attractive features, distinguishing

number will contain a beautiful original Engra-
wing on Steel designed and etched by Chap
man, ILLUSTRATING the letter-press which it will
invest with peculiar interest. Besides the
contributions Of all our extensive corps OF cor
respondents-which embraces most of the tai
emf of this country-we have made arrange
ments for fresh and early tanslations from
some of the best writers of France, and for
proof sheets from several of the popular authors
| of England. With such materials, and with
such able fellow-labo orers in the literary vine
yard, we hope to present to the American Tea-
der a weekly journal Of great value and una
lsual excellence. The parade of mere names
will be sedulously avoided. The Mirror will
be remarkable we hope, rather 70: good arti-
cles without names, than for poor articles with
distinguished names. 1t will em6racs in Its
scope every department of elegant lite, ,ature,
comprising tales of romance, sketches of soeie-
: ty and manners, sentiment, and everyday life,
lpiuuant essays, domestic and foreign eorrespon'
ldence. literary intelligence, wit and humor
fashion and gossip, poetry, the fine arts, anC
, literary, musical and dramatic criticisms. 1t
review of new works will be Careful, discrimna
; ting aud impartial. 1t will aim to foster lit
\ erature suit ID to the taste and desires OF th'
" age and country. Its tendency will be cheer
|. ful and enlivening,as we'll as improving. l
: will seek to crafty every rehned taste
but never to offend the most fastidious; and
lwil ever feel its duty to be, 10 "turn the sun
ny side ofthngs to human eyes,"
The work willIbe Published every Saturday
in numbers of sixteen large octave suPer-roya
pages, with double columns, and enclosed in a
neat ornamental cover. 1t will form, at the
end ofthe year two superb volumes, each OF
four hundred and sixteen pages, filed with the
gems of literature and rhe fl g arts.
The very low price at which it will be issu'
ed renders il the cheapest periodical in this OF
any other country, considering the cost and
: beauty of its FIFTY-TWO ENGRAVINGS,
and the intrinsic value ofits literary contents.
