in making preparations for the publication OF
new volume, would tender their heartfelt
thanks to the reading public, for the exceeding
ly liberal patronage--iar beyond their most
sanguine expectations-which has been be-
slowed upon their enterprise during the past
a year. Although a twevemOnth only has
elapsed since it made its appearance in the lite
rary field, and that too under circumstances OF
peculiar disadvantages, viz, the pressure oil
the tues-the great competition IN this line
which they expected to meet from periodicals
long since established on a solid basis, and the
knowledge OF the fact, that numerous attempts
had been made previously, to locate magazine
Of purely literary character in this quarter OF
the United States, and as often failed; yet they
have the pride and satisfaction of pointing TO a
lengthy subscription list, which is augmenting
every day. The kindness and encouragement
extended thus far toward their work, have but
served to stimulate them 20 still greater exer-
tions and 10 redoube their ellorts to merit the
favor of the reading community. To this end
they have made and are still making the most
extensive arrangements TO bring out the mis-
cellany for lS43 in a manner that will set all
competition aside. It will be printed with
ner and beautiful type, on paper Of The finest
feature and qualify.
No pains or expense will be spared to render
this volume the mOsi valuable and attractive
book Of the season. Artists Of the highest rank
have been engaged 10 assist in the pictorial de-
partment, and every number will be embellished
with magnificent Steel EngraringS.
The publishers would call the attention Of
the public to the fact, that they admit nothing
but Steel Engrduings into their work. Those
that have been given during the publication Of
the first and second volumes have been spo-
ken of in terms of the most unqualified APP
probation, and it will be their continued, I'M
wearying endcavor to deserve the praise that
has been so ayishly bestowed upon their efforts.
They will continue to introduce netC and orig
inai american suLjecfs Historical, Landscape
and Picturesque, executed in every variety OF
art, which will far exceed any thing of the
kind that has ever been got up.
Richly Coiored Fashions will be furnished
quarterly instead of monthly as heretofore so
that their less frequent recurrence, while il does
not diminish their usefulness, will enable the
publishers TO supply Il larger number Of Steel
EngTdrings of much more general interest.
The fashion plates will be accompanied with
iull and minute descriptions Of the style Of dress
from the most authentic sources abroad. Each
number will also contain two or more pages of
netc and popular Music, which will be repub-
ished Immediately after its appearance in Eu-
rope, together with many of the best American
compositions
Literary character If The .Miscellany-In
this department of the work, il is the intention
OF the publishers TO make decided change:-
TO introduce greater variety in the matter, TO
give larger proportion of articles of lighter
and more spnghtly character, and TO increase
ITS interest throughout; in word, to remodel
u entirely, and adapt il TO the popular taste of
the day, They wish 10 produce a work that
VIII crafty most refined taste, and one that
will rebound to the honor and credit of Ameri-
can literature, at home and abroad. To place
in the hand of the scholar and literary man. a
periodical which they viii open and peruse |
with pleasure, aud to present To the eentler |
sex companion for their leisure hours, and a |
never-failing source of entertainment and in
struction. Such is their plan, and 10 carry il |
out fully, they are determined to spare no trou-
bic or expense. Arrangements have been
made, and pegociaiions are still pending with
writer's of The most unquestionabe talent and
ability; which, when completed, will secure
the aid of the most efficient corps Of contri6ut-
orS in the United States.
Articles will be furnished in every department
of literature and the arts. 1t needs but SIN
gle glance at the annexed list Of male and ie-
male writers TO verify the promises of the pub
fishers IN regard to the future excellence OF the
work. The reader will perceive that these
winch constitute hut portion of the army

should be stated, however, that the claims of
the Magazine to the patronage of the public,

trlbutors, but upon the intrinsic merits of their
productions.
