fkNHE great demand which has existed for the
L past y ear for Godey'S Lady's Book, I'll aham 5
Magazine, and other kindred publications., has
induced the subscriber 10 present 10 the public a
Monthly Nlagaz ne similar, IN its general features,

CLAIMS TO ATTENTION which they do not pos

AS the writer of various books, and contribu-
tor to Godey's Lady IS Book Graham's Magazine
aud other periodicals OF high reputation, Miss
Leslie has done much to enhghten and entertain
the pubic, and III The Magazine now presented
which bears her name, she will make her eminent
talents still more available for the general good.
Besides

in her own nimitable style, in which, under cover
OF amusement, some beneficial design viii be
promoted she will furnish from her observation,
reading and experience, succession OF Essays on
Household EcOnOmy, embracing general sugges-
tIons for the regulation Ut domestic establishments,
HINTS and reflections useful to housekeepers,
practical advice, numerous receipts never before
published, and all oher tnings that may be made
suUseryIent to the purpose. This department OF
! the Magazine, though no undue space will be
allotted to 1t, is not to be found IN dny other
periodical, and the Publisher satisfied that 1t
viii not be less Interesting and valuable than it is
| novel
AS it is the purpose of the Publisher to make
the Magazine htOutUy to useful designs, he has
made an arrangement with the justly celebrated
Il. 5. ARTHUR, ESQ,
by which that gentleman will be directly engaged
III Joint supalintendence, and will bestow ms

Believing that proper taste IN dress is essen
lia 10 the uue Development Vt female graceful

exposition and Illustration OF the
PREH.ALLLNG FASHIONS.
This will be strictly and exclusively under the
care of Mss LcSile whose severe Taste and am
pie opportunities OF observation will confer upon
whatever receives the stamp of her appreciation,
high authority. To endtie her TO select the
NeWeSt, Latest and most Recherche Fashions,
the Publisher has made arrangements to receive,
by the Steamers, the latest issues Of Paris and
London; and TO give the highest possible effect
TO the .ilOaeS selected, he has made all arrange
ment with celebrated Artist to compose aud
modify the groups so as to render them highly

than any which can be found III any other puViIc-
alton.
Miss Leslie's Magazine will, as will be per-
ceived from W hat has been stated, be emphatcalIy
A HOME BOOK,
and it will contain matter especially calculated for
Ornament to the Centre Table, Interesting read
ing and conversation i'll the Drawing Room, aud
for tie Family Flreside, valuable suggestions in
the HOuSekeeper'S Department, and unerrng
illustrations IN the style Of Dress.
The embellishments will be in the first style of
the pictorial art. Each number will contain
TWO IPIhAgsMSS
and in the course of the volume there will be
presented several Superb .Mezzotints, of the high
est possible elegance and finish.
The contents of Miss Leslie's Magazine will
be such as to give it, in this respect, decided
superiority. No mere reverence for names Will
induce the Editors to admit any article OF ques-
tionabe merit, but everything admitted wnl be
iud, ed of by its intrinsic worth, and nothing can
possibly find place which will not be calculated
to promote the entertainment and edltlcatlon OF
lis readers.
1t will scarcely be credited that Magazine,
such as has been described, can be afforded at the
low late OF 81 so PER ANNUM,
when but single copy Is subscribed for but at
the risk of considerable loss, the Publisher has
determined to furnish it for that sum- being just
one half the price of the other principal Mega
zines. Indeed, as will be seen by the subjoined
list of superior offers, the Publisher has resolved
upon obtaining wide circulation for this public
alton, as il VIII require an immense edition TO
repay the large ouliays necessary to be made.
