SPLENDID EMBELLISHMENTS.
| In the department of Engravings, tits very well
GnowD that Graham's Magazine has far surpassed
any periodical work ever published IN this or any
country. The highest ambition of rival publish
ers seems thus far 70 have been to maintain re-
spectacle imitation of the numerous costly ana
beautiful works OF art with which the successive
numbers Of this journal have been graced. In

portant new features will be introduced. S0TtGln

y original in its embellishments as well as in il
literary contents.
