FOUR Splendid Engrayngs of the mos,

minalIon to outslrip all contemporaries.
The Embellishments of the new vol. :
ume are of the most splendid and costly
character, combining every variety Of
style, and executed by the first ertisls the
country can produce.
The work has been THE LADIES
FAVORlI Il, and this reputation it will
continue TO maintain. Hence, the char.
aeter of its literature will continue tole
such as 10 commend it especially 10 The
sex. 1t will contain articles from tie
most popular and pleasing writers of the
day, on every variety of subjects, but The
work will in the main lie devoted 20 tie
cultivation OF the home virtues Hence,
most Of the stories will be Of a practical,
domestic character, from the pens OF cur
best female Writers. The literary matter

mind, but will contain the choicest pro.
auctions of a galaxy of female writer's.
The effort. sh,l still be TO render the
work an indispensable requisite 10 The
boudoir of every lady of taste in The land;
and, therefore, not its literary matter alJne
shall be compiled for their taste, but it will
contain MONTHLY FASHIONS, Gle.
rantlv coIoured, which for excellence If
drawing, correctness in every parllcuOr
and extreme beauty OF the C touring AMI
engravings, shall far excel any thing from
other quarters. The fact that during the
last year the "Lady's World" has been the Z
guide book'' in matters OF taste on COS.
tune in every city Of the Union, has given
it a position in the fashionable worj
which cannot lie shaken. The unwayer
ing fidelity Of its designs to the Partisan
and London styles, in advance, too,n
least six weeks, Of all others, has placcd

thority in matters of dress. 1t is a vel
known fact, that the styles of the "Laty3 Is
World" appear in the other periodicals,
pretending TO give the fashions, often four
months later, when the sly les have be.
come common Or obsolete.

country, of this celebrated style. We

lists the sountry can produce. In fine, ey.
cry variety and novelty Of embelish

World" But the main design Of the work
is to furnish, in elegant. and attractive
style, the earliest, most correct, and iu.
lest report in advance Of all the Other
Magazines, and prior TO the issuing Of
them here, of the Monthly Fashions, dr.
rect from Paris and London.

troll of French and English artists of the
highest celebrity, so that every costume

be safely relied on as not having been
trumped up at second hand in this country
after they have been received. 1t is pro-
posed not on TO surpass in the excel
