The demand which has existed for the past
wear for Godey's Lady's Book. Graham's Mag
aztne, and other kindred publications, has in.
duced the subscriber to present to the public
a monthly magazine, similar in its general fea-
lures to the popular works referred to, but
with some claims to attention which they, do
not possess. For this purpose he has recur-
ed the aid of Miss E. LESLIE, universally
known as one OF the first female writer's ofthe
age, and particularly distinguished by her gra
phc sketches Of manners, and her success in
Illustrating and correcting fashionable foi!ies.
AS the writer of various books, and contr
butor to Godev's Lady's 30 X, and other puh-
LEGATIONS, Miss Leslie has done much to enlgh

embracing general suggestions for the regul:.-
ton ofdomestic establishments, hints and re.
Elections useful to housekeepers, practical ad-
vice, numerous receipts never before publish
ed, and all other things that may be made sub
servcnt to the purpose. This department Of
the magazine is not to be fond in any other
periodical, and the publisher is atisGed that it
will not be less interesting and valuable than
it is novel. As it is the purpose Of the publ
sher to make the magazine tributary to useful
design, he has made an Arrangement with the
justly celebrated I. S. ARTHUR. ESQ. BY
which that gentleman viii be directly engaged
in JOINT superintendent, and will bestow.
his best endeavors. He will furnish for each

and such other matter as may be adapted to

Believing that a proper taste in dress is es-
sentiat to the true development of female
gracefu!ness. a portion Of the work Will be de
