SPLENDID EMBELLISHMENTS.
In the department of Engravings, it is very we'll
known that GTaham'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 10 have been TO maintain re-

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